Konoha never sleeps.
And neither does Naruto Uzumaki.
Principal, teacher, a point of reference for anyone who crosses his path: Naruto lives in the light-the kind that protects, warms, and guides.
Itachi Uchiha, instead, knows only the shadow.
He observes, controls, remains silent.
He has learned to keep everything under control... except his own heart.
Their meeting is almost imperceptible.
A glance that lasts a heartbeat too long.
Enough to change everything.
From that moment, something slow, deep, inevitable is born.
Amid responsibilities that weigh heavy, families that arrive when you least expect them,
and choices that are frightening to make.
Where the Light Learns to Stay is a slow burn, modern, intense story.
A story about what it means to stay
when running away would be easier.
About what happens when light and shadow stop fighting
and learn to walk together.
Naruto and his characters do not belong to me-they belong to Masashi Kishimoto.
The story, however, is entirely my own.
