The Second's Bride

He Is Tobirama

I walked towards him. Why I said this encounter felt so strange? Because in recent days, when I was looking for some herbs in this place, I had never met anyone and when I met someone here, how it supposed to be him? The white haired boy who I met two weeks ago. From my point of view, He didn't care I was standing there. When I walked nearer, I knew that He was looking for something inside the lush bushes.

"Emm, hello" I greeted him awkwardly. "Emm.. what are you doing here?" I asked him politely.

The boy kept silent. He was still looking for something inside the bushes (I didn't know what was that. Maybe he was looking for his piece of soul. It seemed like he would be died if he didn't find it) without paying attention at my greeting.

'This boy really really make me anxious'

I thought my greeting was quite polite for two people who didn't know each other so well. But he had helped me two weeks ago.

'Okay! I give up!'

"I want to say thank you. You have helped me two weeks ago. I guess you still remember it, right?" I tried to talk to him. Actually I was waiting for his respond from my words.

"I still remember" murmured the boy shortly without looked at me. "You are welcome"

Huh!

I sighed heavily. I walked and squated down beside him to paid attention on what he was doing right now. The boy seemed so serious until his forehead frowned.

"May I know what's your name?" I asked him. "I think it will be inconvenient if I keep speaking to you without knowing your name. I think you feel the same way"

Finally the boy turned his sight at me. He still looked same with two weeks ago. His eyesight was so sharp (or maybe it would be right if I said his eyesight was always so sharp), as if he felt the presence of his enemy nearby.

The next minute, he ignored me back and put his focus on what he did before.

"My name is Nozu" I lend my right arm in front of his face. For a minute, I saw the boy stunned while He was looking at my hand in front of his face. It didn't happen longer, he was back to looking for something inside the bushes immediately.

'Oh My! This boy trully... I just had well-meaning, to introduce my self to him. Only that..'

"Why you introduce yourself to a stranger?" Said the boy suddenly. His voice was quite heavy for the boys at his age. It made me surprised.

"How it can be like that?" I felt annoyed. "You didn't answer me, so I say my name first"

'srakk'

There was a piece of paper fell down from the boy's lap. The paper landed smoothly on my feet. I took the paper and read what was written on it.

There was a picture of saga leaf. Complete with the additional information about the characteristics of the plant.

'Wait a minute? Saga leaf?'

"This is your paper" I gave the paper to him. "Are you looking for some herbs? Am I right?" I asked him.

The boy seemed quite surprised when he heard my question. He looked at me and paid a lot of attention to me, with his sharp crimson eyes.
