Sasuke was up earlier than he had wanted. He took his time motivating himself to get out of bed. "Meow" his cat Dango mewed as if cheering him on in his morning struggle to get up. After several minutes Sasuke stood up and stretched his arms above him before yawning and turning on his shower. Sasuke let the pervious days news settle in his thoughts. (That Sakura girl should be starting to work with us today... I still don't like it but.. I am curious as to what types of ideas she will bring in.) he thought to himself as he let the warm water run down his back.
Memories of her green emerald eyes and pink glossy hair surface to his mind. Sasuke narrowed his eyes suspiciously at them before pushing them out of his head. It didn't take long for him to finish his shower and get dressed for work. As he ate his breakfast he stared at his keys which contained the keychain of a motorcycle.

FLASH BACK

     He sat quietly at the table picking at his food as his father talked with his brother about company business. "The Sarutobi port industry has been acting up as of late. They plan to boycott during the busy holiday seasons. I can't have that understood Itachi." The dark haired man said as he cut into his dinner. "Yes father, I'll see to it that the employees don't boycott their jobs." Itachi replied as he drank from his cup. "Good, I was right to bring you into the family business at such a young age. People trust you because they think you're young and naive. But you are my eyes and ears, a spy if you will, into the going ons of the employees." Fakuga said proudly.
A bit of jealousy began to rise in Sasuke. He couldn't help it but he was always a little jealous at the approval and praises his brother got from his father. "Dad.." his voice sounded almost foreign to himself, like it always did when he spoke with his father. The dark haired man looked up from his plate to meet his youngest son's eyes. "What is it Sasuke?" He asked him as he stared at him. "I've found a new interest today." He said as polite as he could. "Oh really and what might that be?"
Sasuke hesitated for a moment but regained the courage when he saw his brother turn to him and smile. " I um, I started getting into the motorcycle business. I plan to buy one when I'm older." Sasuke said proudly. "... Motorcycles?.." his fathers tone was enough to keep him from saying anything else. Sasuke could only nod as a response. "What a preposterous plan. Motorcycles are nothing but motorized bikes. They aren't safe and leave you exposed to the elements. Not a smart thing to be interested in." His father answered bluntly.
"I just thought.. it would be something new to be interested in. I've heard you tell Itachi that it's good to find new interest...." Sasuke answered. "I told Itachi that it's good to find new interest if they help with the family buissness. Motorcycle don't apply there. Try to be more business focus like Itachi." The words of his father felt like alcohol being poured on an open wound. And though it happpened more often then he would like, he could never get used to his father's comparison between him and Itachi.

*End of Flash Back*
Sasuke shook the bitter memories from his mind and put his bowl down. Having lost his appetite, he opted to head out to work. It didn't take long to get there. He ran his hand through his black locks as he walked in. Looking around he saw some people sitting down. He made his way towards the counter where he found Karin and Suigetsu sitting down. "Hey I pay you to work not just sit there." He grumbled. "Oh look ,the boss man is here." Suigetsu said in a sarcastic tone that Sasuke chose to ignore.
"S-Sasuke you're here!" Karin practically jumped on him. Sasuke gave an annoyed grunt before shoving her off of him. "Where's Jugo?" He asked with a raised brow. "He's in the back checking inventory." Suigetsu said as he threw his thumb behind him. "Really at this time? What if there's customers?" "Pftttt hahahahah don't worry about that! I can count the number of customers that we've had in the past 3 hours with my hands." Suigetsu laughed. This news caused the stress knots on his neck to tighten.
Suddenly Karin punched Suigetsu. "Shut up Suigetsu! You're so annoying! Telling him that isn't going to help our situation. I'm sure Sasuke has a plan to help us make profit. Right Sasuke ?" Sasuke only glanced at her before rubbing the back of his neck to try to lessen the pain. "Yeah" he answered Not very sure if he did or not. "Oh yeah, I heard all about the person you hired Thats supposed to help you make this bar popular again." Suigetsu said as he played with a toothpick.
"I didn't hire her Kakashi did." Sasuke replied as he picked up the mail that was on the counter and shuffled through it. "Wa- it's a girl! Is she hot?! Tell me she's hot. Cause that's really the only way you're going to attract customers here. Like seriously we have no chicks working for us. I mean besides Karin, but even ....then she's like a four tops." Suigetsu said as he eyed Karin. It didn't take long for her to smack him across the face. "Shut up you're no eye candy either! Also we don't need another girl." Karin said with an annoyed tone.
Finally Jugo came back to the counter. "Jugó, I need you to stay in the front-." Sasuke said before being interrupted "HEY Jugo remember that new person I was talking about?! It's a girl. How much you wanna bet I can get her number on the first day?" Suigetsu shouted. " it's a girl?" Jugo asked confused. "god you're so gross Suigetsu. I bet your ugly ass gets rejected. Besides she comes in when we leave so you won't even see her that much." Karin said as she crossed her arms.
"Shut up, you know I'm hot that's why you let me smash. And so what if she comes in when I clock out nothing says I can't stick around to see." Suigetsu shrugged. "Tch you're still on about that one time. Get over it I was horny and you were the only one around. Plus I regret it so much pinky dick." Karin lifted her pinky finger and shoved it at his face. Suigetsu instantly turned red. "Shut up stupid! I told you it was cold!" He said as he pointed his finger at her. "Yeah it was as cold as a sauna!"
Still shuffling through the mail, Sasuke ignored them as they continued to bicker between them. He suddenly came to a stop at a post card. It had a picture of a pretty sunset by a beach. He flipped it over to read it.
