I don't own anything!
Except for Yumi who is MY character, but you are welcome to use her if you want. But if you do please tell me so I can see your work! :)
So yeah.. Hi guys! This is my first public fanfiction and I'm a bit nervous of how you all will react to it and stuff. But I have decided to get as many chapters done as possible and do everything I can to complete it!
I would love if you would review and tell me what you think! - If it's okay or if it's completely weird and unreadable.
I just want to say before you start reading, my first language is NOT English, so if some of the sentences is a little off or just don't make sense, - that's why.
Okay... Okay, I think you should just start reading now! :)
It was late as always, when Yumi entered the house.
"I'm home!" She shouted to her mother, and walked upstairs to take a shower. Twenty minutes later, she finally managed to turn off the hot water, and grabbed two towels. She wrapped the big one around her torso and the other one around her hair.
She hummed a song she had forgotten what was called, and walked downstairs. She opened the fridge and after a while she closed it again with a sigh. When she turned around she jumped.
"Mom!" Yumi cried.
"What?" Her mother said and winked at her.
"Could you stop sneaking up on me like that?!"
"No." Her mother said and grabbed an apple from the fruit bowl. "So did you learn anything interesting today?"
Yumi shook her head and sat down at the kitchen table.
"Hm.. Well, that's sad!" Her mother said and pulled off the towel covering her hair. She gently dried Yumi's hair, and started braiding it in a single braid down her back.
"But we did do a blood type test today at school," Yumi said. A quiet moment passed and her mother stopped braiding.
"What... What was the result?" She asked.
"I'm O. I guess it's from dad?" Yumi said quietly. She knew this was a dangerous subject.
"I suppose you're right," Her mother answered with a sigh. She started braiding her hair again.
"Do I look like him?" Yumi held her breath. This was something she had always wanted to know. She had just been too afraid to ask. Not because it would make her mother angry, - but it always made her so sad to talk about.
"You have my hair and bodyshape, you only have his skin colour. " Her mother sighed.
"You make it sound like a bad thing?" Yumi handed the rubber band over her shoulder.
"Well, if you like your mommy's look, then it's not a bad thing." Her mother let out a shy chuckle. "Your dad just had some very pretty and special eyes,"
"Hn," Yumi said.
She looked down on her hands. "You know, I know it's weird, but sometimes I feel like... I feel like I miss him. And I haven't even met him," She said.
"Oh Yumiko," Her mother said and pulled her into a hug from behind. "I miss him too," They stayed like that for while.
"I think it's time we have a girls night tonight!" Her mother whispered in her ear.
"I go get the ice cream!" Yumi said and rushed to her feet.
"No young lady! You go put some clothes on. I'll get the ice cream." Her mother chuckled.
Since they lived in a small house in the countryside, they had an old barn. The ice cream was in the freezer compartment, which was in the barn, which was on the other side of the yard, which was covered in rain since it was november. So it might was a pretty good idea, that her mother got the ice when Yumi still only was wearing a towel.
"Vanilla and chocolate!" Yumi shouted down the stairs when she heard the front door open. Her mother's response was a soft laughter before she closed the door behind her.
Yumi opened the top drawer which contained her underwear. She grabbed the pink t-shirt bra and some black boy boxers. Then she digged up her nirvana big time oversized t-shirt.
She made her way downstairs again, and grabbed two bowls and two spoons. She placed it on the tiny table in front of the couch, and opened the drawer under the TV. She pulled out all the DVD's and spread them on the floor.
"I think 'Iron man' or 'San ging caat goo si'..." Yumi said as she heard the front door open. She picked them up and looked at the covers for a short moment, still debating which one to watch.
"Or maybe we should just go all Disney tonight," She turned around, and blinked a little surprised, when no one was there to be seen.
"Mom?" She called. Yumi laid the DVD's on the table and walked into the kitchen. Her mother wasn't there, so she walked back to the living room and sat down on the couch.
"Mooom?" She called again, a little louder.
"Yumiko!" She heard her mother's voice shout. Or she wasn't shouting, just talking loud. "Can you grab an extra bowl? We have a guest."
"Hn?" Yumi said, but went back to the kitchen and grabbed a bowl and a spoon.
When she reentered the living room she had expected it to be Mary, the old lady who lived two minutes walk away from them, but instead it was a tall, dark haired man, with a long dark blue cloak on. Underneath the cloak, he wore black loose pants and a green west.
"Who are you?" Yumi said with an undertone of teenage-wrath. When no one would answer her, she widened her eyes in disbelief. "Don't tell me you two are..." She pointed from the man to her mother.
"Oh! No!" Her mother laughed. "No, we're not dating." She put down the ice cream on the table.
"Well, who the hell are you?" Yumi snapped. She was starting to get annoyed. The man had appeared on the very evening, she and her mother were supposed to have a 'girls night'.
"Yumiko!" Her mother scolded. "This is Uchiha Sasuke. Sasuke, this is my daughter Yumiko,"
He was Japanese. Or his name was Japanese.
