Time with Tobirama Senju

Chapter 2

*A place far away in civilization and the ones around are small houses and the rest are nature*

Nobara sat on a bench while drinking tea and enjoying the peace and quiet when suddenly she heard a scream of an old woman looking for help.

Its in her nature not to mendle with people's business if it's not part of a mission. She was just about to ignore it but the Old Woman's voice is getting  louder with fear.

Nobara decided to help her, not because of pity but because her loudness is ruining her peace and quiet.

She got up and went to the area where the Old woman is yelling. She saw the Old woman surrounded by bandits holding weapons. The bandit behind the old woman holds her arms and the others getting her stuff for them to use. Jewelries, Clothes, Food and other more. Before the situation gets worse and before the old woman will collapse, she jumped infront of the old woman and attacked the bandits effortlessly.

After the fight, she picked up the things the bandits stole from the old woman and returned it to her bag. She helped the old woman to relax and suggested the old woman to come with her in the nearby dango house and they left the place where the bandits are still on the ground unconscious and faces swollen.

When they arrived at the dango house, Nobara treated the old woman with tea and started a conversation.

"Thank you so much, young lady. Without you, I might be dead by now."

"No need for exaggeration. They were only there to scare you and steal your things. They won't get anything special by killing you." Nobara replied not looking at the old woman.

The old woman just smiled and sips her tea.

"Oh, and by the way. Its not like I saved you because I was worried or anything. I just chose to do it because I cannot concentrate on my vacant time. Your too noisy and those bandits' laughter are annoying."

The old woman laughed after hearing the words leaving Nobara wondering why.

"Young Lady, your so blunt and strict looking. You don't sugar coat your words and you don't seem to be a pretentious person... You remind me so much of him."

"What are you talking about? 'Him'?  Your grandson? Husband? Brother?"

"Tobirama Senju." The old woman replied with a smile looking at Nobara.

"Tobirama? Isn't that the 2nd Hokage?"

The old woman nodded as a reply and sips her tea.

"Do you look after Him? Do you admire that Hokage?"

"I don't. Well, I don't even know anything about that guy. Except that he's the younger brother of the 1st Hokage and he's a strong Water user and Smart, as they say." nobara replied who doesn't even care.

"I see." The Old woman smiled again before looking to the natural view.

"Do you find this scenery beautiful?" The old woman asked suddenly.

Nobara replied without even looking at the one who's asking. "I don't. But its relaxing. You see, I only react to things I am fond of and to things I am sure of. I don't pretend liking something just to make the other person not offended."

"Tell me, what do you want in life?" The old woman asked again.

"I don't know. I just do things that needs to be done. I don't even know what I want. Its depressing seeing other people dreaming and having the things they want in life."

"I see." The old woman finished her tea and stood up.

"Thank you for everything, Young Lady. What's your name?"

"Nobara."

"Nobara, huh. Well my name is Clotho. It was nice meeting you. I owe one, so I need to give you something."

"No need."

"Like I told you, you saved me and you deserve to be awarded. Mind if I shake your hand?"

Nobara hesitated for a moment but shaked the old woman's hand eventually.

"I hope one day you'll appreciate things, Nobara. Together with someone who deserves to be loved deeply." The Old woman smiled at her and left.

Nobara was left there wondering what Clotho was talking about.

The sun was about to set then she decided to leave and go back to her hometown to get some rest.
