Finally, here comes the next chapter. Gosh, I think I am starting to lose the deed of my story.😢
But then again, I have tried to stick to it as much as possible.😬
Anyway, enjoy!

Btw, I am so happy my other fanfic reached 1k. 🎉🎉🎉
And I wish this one would reach that point too.

Naruto returned to the Konoha Police Station after having lunch and crossed paths with Lee who was on his way to patrol.

"Congrats to your exchange overseas, Naruto." Lee said after he greet him.

"Thanks! It was inevitable, really. They choose me because they don't want to go." Naruto can't help but feel a little upset toward his colleagues who agreed to send him from their department. Well, their reason was he has once been a police in Kumo and it would be suitable. How absurd is that?!

"Well, it's no problem, right? I mean you have been there before."

"True, but... shouldn't it be more suitable to send someone who hasn't been there?"

"I understand you." Lee said as he patted Naruto's shoulder and laughed a little before continuing.

"And I understand them too. They don't want to leave their family for that long time. You just happen to be the only single man."

"Really? So, it was my fault for being single then?" Naruto sighed and tried hard not to roll his eyes.

                    Lee laughed again at Naruto being sarcastic and asked;

"Have you talked with your brothers?"

"... No. No, I thought I will tell them once it's close by."

"What? It's lesser than 2 months left, isn't it?"

                    Naruto just realizes how little time he has left to be with the people he cared for. The time went by so quickly, he has been back for almost 7 months and now in lesser than 2 months, he has to leave again. It breaks his heart to think about leaving his homeland once again even though it was because of work this time.

"The time went by so quickly, huh? Thank you for reminding me, Lee-san."

"Yeah. I should go on to patrol now." Lee said once he saw his colleague waving at him from the police car in front of the station.

"Good work." Naruto said and watched Lee heading to the car. He then sighed before heading inside the huge building, thinking about how the two brothers would react to his leaving.

                    At the Sharingan Corporation, inside Sasuke's office, Sasuke was sitting on his chair with his head resting on his two hands, his eyes gazing at the table. He was having deep thoughts, from going to talk with Naruto from the start he now was having a hard time after what happened the other night when Naruto apologized to him. He starts to doubt if what he going to tell Naruto would make Naruto happy as he thought. What if he hurt him again? Would he be able to see the dejected expression on Naruto's face? He could still remember the first time Naruto confessed to him and the expression he made after being rejected. Even after the second rejection, Naruto wore the same pained expression, and the third confession never come. And before he even get a grasp of it, they were parted away because of what happened.
