"Just when the caterpillar thought its life was over, it began to fly"
NARUTO'S POV
"Ladies and Gentlemen, we're now approaching Konoha, where the local time is 17:00. At this stage, you should be in your seat with your seat belt firmly fastened. Personal television screens, footrests and seat tables must be stowed away and all hand luggage stored either in the overhead lockers or under the seat in front. Please ensure all electronic devices including laptop computers and computer games are turned off."
I took a deep breath, looked out the window, and saw the airport. Looks like this is it. I'm finally doing this. I'm finally moving on.
"I love you, Naruto-kun. I promise to only spend my life forever with you"
Tsk. Lies. Then why am I here, starting a new life without you? And forever? *scoff and internal roll eyes* Forever's not supposed to be this short.
*sigh* I should really stop being so melodramatic, I'm here to move on and to forget. Although I think it's impossible to ever forget someone like him. Hopefully, the new environment helps.
Damnit! Stop plaguing my mind already!
After the plane landed, I stretched a bit, grabbed all my hand luggage and waited for the crowd to thin out so that it will be easier to walk through the aisle without bumping into other passengers, exaggerated tripping out of the plane and into the ground, which will definitely embarrass me to death and end my so-called new life. Figuratively or literally, bottom line is, there WILL be death!
Although I do admit, that would be such an epic death! Maybe I'll be famous too. Imagine all the news about me.
*IMAGINATION*
Person-who-does-nothing-in-life-but-gossip-1: Hey, have you heard about the latest gossip?
Person-who-does-nothing-in-life-but-gossip-2: Not yet. What's it about?
Person-who-does-nothing-in-life-but-gossip-1: It's about that boy who was brave or rather stupid enough to go airplane diving without a parachute.
Person-who-does-nothing-in-life-but-gossip-2: He's not dead, is he?
Person-who-does-nothing-in-life-but-gossip-1: Of course he is, stupid! Who would be alive after diving headfirst from a plane?
Person-who-does-nothing-in-life-but-gossip-2: How did they recognize him?
Person-who-does-nothing-in-life-but-gossip-1: Easy. Apparently, he dove when the plane already landed which means he dove 2 meters from the ground. Not much, but since he dove headfirst, his skull cracked and he died.
Person-who-does-nothing-in-life-but-gossip-2: I don't know whether to laugh at him or pity him for his stupidity. Either way, he's stupid and his death must be the in the Guinness Book of World Records for the Most Stupid Way to Die.
Person-who-does-nothing-in-life-but-gossip-1: I know right?
Person-who-does-nothing-in-life-but-gossip-1-and-2 then proceeds to laugh maniacally at the stupidity of one, Uzumaki Naruto. The end!
*IMAGINATION END*
Nope! That's not how I imagined or want to imagine myself going down in history. The only reason that that even popped into my mind is that I know that that's a possible scenario. I'm that clumsy! Even Ita-kun said so. Maybe that's why I'm so depende- URGH! How am I supposed to forget him, when he's all I ever think about?! Stupid Itachi-filled mind! (I can relate very well. Itachi is soooo HOT! How many 'that' did I use?LOL)
I'm finally out of the plane and thankfully, no one died because of me yet. Hooray! I continued walking out of the airport to grab a cab. As I was walking, somebody tapped me on my shoulder. I turned around and came face to face with a couple.
The girl was blushing; I raised an eyebrow in question and removed my headphones. Did I mention I was wearing one? No? Well now I did. There was no music playing but I still removed it as a sign of respect and to show them I'm willing to listen. "May I help you?"
"You dropped this." I looked at what she's talking about and saw a pendant. A gold sun pendant with blue gems and white pearls. There was a gold outline of the sun and its rays. In the middle sits a white pearl. Inside four rays of the sun has blue gems while the other four contains white pearls, all placed alternately. There's also this thing above it which makes it seem like a necklace but too small to be one. There are two light blue gems held with two gold chains that leads to gold-rimmed blue metal that holds a big blue gem in the middle.
Itachi gave it to me. He said it reminded him of me so he bought it. He gave it to me to remind me how much I mean to him. He said the gold sun reminds him of how precious I am. He told me I reminded him of the sun with how I make his whole world bright. He said the pearls remind him of how pure I am, how kind, loving and innocent. He told me that I reminded him of clouds, how much I make him feel like he's on cloud 9. He said that the blue gems reminds him of my eyes, my big, bright blue eyes. He told me my eyes remind him of the sky a cloudless day, so damn blue and beautiful. He said it reminds him of me, his heaven on earth.
I gave out a bitter laugh. To abandon his light, he must've really loved the dark, huh?
I suddenly remembered my company. I took the pendant from the girl's hand and smiled a smile so big, my eyes closed. "Thank you"
No response. I slowly opened my eyes and saw the couple blushing and staring at me with eyes and mouth wide open. Awkward. I cleared my throat and gave them a small smile this time. "So umm, I got to go. Thank you again. Bye." I waved at them, turned away and started walking. That must have caused them to wake up from whatever daydream they were having since they both speaking again and quiet loudly if I might add.
"HE'S SO HANDSOME!/ HE'S SO CUTE!"
"WHAT?!/ WHAT?!"
"ARE YOU BLUSHING?/ ARE YOU BLUSHING?"
*GASP* "DO YOU HAVE A CRUSH ON HIM?/ DO YOU HAVE A CRUSH ON HIM?"
"HE'S A BOY!/ YOU'RE MY GIRLFRIEND!"
I wore my headphones again and this time, I played some music in order to drown out their conversation. That was a weird encounter. Were they talking about me? I don't think I'm handsome though. And definitely not cute. I think I'm average looking. Not handsome but not ugly either. Maybe it's their first time seeing someone with blond hair and blue eyes. Most of the population here has black hair and black eyes anyway so I guess it can't be helped that they reacted the way they did.
I know , even with my headphones on and my music on full volume that they're still in conflict. They are after all, catching a lot of attention. See, their eyes are all directed towards them- me?! Why are they all looking at me?! Is it because they know that I'm the subject of the couple's fight and are checking out if I am indeed worthy of such argument? Or is there just something on my face?
Gahh! Stop looking at me! If you don't I will assume that you're judging me and criticizing every aspect of my body which then will lead you to the obvious conclusion that I'm ugly and will further diminish my almost non-existed confidence and then I will break down here in the middle of the airport and you will further judge me and by tomorrow, I will be trending on the internet as a cry baby and then Itachi will see it and realize just how great the decision that he made by leaving me and breaking my heart. Noooooo! Itachi!
Freaked out, I started sprinting towards the exit and immediately caught a cab. I told the driver my address and finally relaxed. Then I realized that I just panicked because I thought that Itachi regretted being with me because I'm a crybaby. My face began to contort into a deep frown. Jeez. So much for moving on.
We reached my house so I got out of the cab, took my luggage and paid the driver. I turned to look at the house my parents left me and I must say it looks cozy. It's a simple two-story house with a style that can only be described as- you know what? It's a nice house. I don't don't a lot about houses but what I do know is that it contains of four walls, roof, a door, and windows and this house has more than enough of those things. It's in need of a few bright colors though, like orange!
I entered my house with my luggage and dropped them by the door. I removed my shoes and went straight to the kitchen. I'm hungry. I opened the fridge and saw vegetables, bleh! I opened the freezer and saw meat, nope; I'm too lazy to cook. I opened the drawers and saw instant ramen. Nice. I took it out, put some hot water in it, waited, then ate. I'm satisfied and full so I'm going to sleep.
I went upstairs, took a shower, changed my clothes and by the time I finally lie down on my soft, and comfy bed, it's already 8 p.m. Time passed by so fast yet it seemed to be such a long day. I gotta tour the house tomorrow and unpack. I hope that I'll also have some time to actually explore. For tonight though, I'm exhausted and I will have my sleep! I no longer have my prince charming so NO ONE disturb me! Goodnight!
