It was a hot July afternoon. Naruto sat on his bed studying Japenese, which was language he spoke fluently. He was born in American, but then moved to Japan with his mom and his dad a few months after his birth. When his parents divorced when he was 11, his mother took full custody over him, and then moved back to America. Naruto hasn't seen his dad in a while, but occasionally gets letters from him and video chats with him sometimes. Since his mom is Japenese, she makes him study his 1st language. As much as Naruto didn't like it, he knew he was going to go back to Japan some day to visit his dad, but he doubted it would be soon. Naruto has been living in America for almost 4 years, and liked it a lot. He was popular, but got into a lot of trouble, too much trouble. He just finished his freshman year, but almost had to go to Summer School. Luckily he gets to spend his summer with his friends, instead of being in a class room taking algebra. Naruto was happy that he passed freshman year, but his mom was very mad about his grades and the amount of trouble he got into. His mom told him that she would make sure that his grades would improve even if it meant doing something completely insane.

Naruto closed his Japanese text book, got out of his bed, and walked into the kitchen. He tried to get in there while trying to avoid his mother, because if his mom did see him, then all she would do is scold him about his terrible grades in freshman year. Naruto tip toed down stairs and peeked his head past the corner of a wall. He saw his mom sitting in a red lounge chair reading a book in Japenese called "Running from the wind". Naruto had know clue what the book could be about, but decided to give up on the meaning of the title and continue with his mission. "Go to the Kitchen, get ramen, and go upstairs", he thought to himself. Naruto always knew when his mom made ramen, it was one of the very few ways it got him downstairs and out of his bed room. He could always smell ramen cooking in the kitchen from upstairs and sometimes, even outside his house, and his house is quite big compared to an average American house, but it wasn't even close to a mansion.

Just as he is sure that his mom isn't paying any attention to him, he moves his foot slowly and carefully out of the corner of the wall where he is hidden.

"Naruto you don't need to hide form me all the time you know!", Kushina hissed ay him.

"Dammit.", he thought to himself.

Naruto didn't know how to respond to that. He was so used to hiding from his mom when he knew she was angry at him, which was usually most of the time. Naruto got out of the corner to reveal himself. At this point he was sure that his mom was a ninja or something. He smiled nervously still very unsure of what to say.

"Um…", he said sounding very baffled.

"And pull up your sagging pants!", she demanded.

Naruto's pants often sagged over the summer. All he wore were basketball shorts; he even wore them to bed sometimes. Naruto owned very few pairs of jeans, but still didn't mind wearing them.

He pulled up his pants and apologized.

"I need to talk to you", his angry red headed mom said.

His stomach groweled.

"Can't I get some ra", Naruto began to speak, but was cut off by his mom.

"No", she hissed.

Naruto sat in the empty lounge chair that was across from his mom. When ever his mom wanted to talk to him it usually meant that it was either something very serious, or something she wanted to scold him for. Naruto had a nervous look on his face.

"You know you are a very privileged child Naruto", she said in a calm voice, which was strange to Naruto because she only used this tone of voice when she had something very serious to say. This made him even more nervous.

"I'm aware of that", Naruto stated.


His mom often reminded Naruto how lucky he is to live in a nice neighbor hood and go to a nice public school. She told him to never take it for granted because there a lot of people who would kill to have a life like his.

"And I always tell you not to take it for granted", she said.

"I know", he replied.

"But it seems like you never listen to me when ever I say it. I know you can hear me when I say it, but you never seem to realize how much you don't take it for granted", she said.

"I'm sorry, I'll do better sophomore year. I promise. I know there are people who would kill to have an education like me", Naruto said, but only said it because it was the response he knew his mom wanted to hear.

"Sophomore year will be much different. I will work", Naruto began his sentence, but like usual, his mom cut him off.

"Oh, I'm sure that sophomore year will be different Naruto", she says with one of her small devilish smiles.

"Oh no, what is she up to", he thought while panicking.

"You won't be attending Welkley High School", she said.

Naruto stared at his mom completely shocked by what she just said. His mind raced with many thoughts. His whole body began to heat up, and it looked as if he was going to pass out.

"What?", he stated as if his mom just spoke to him in a foreign language.

"You. Will. Not. Attend. Welkley. High School. Any. More.", she spat back at Naruto.

Tension filled the air. They sat there in silence. Naruto stared at the floor in confusion.

"Mom…where will I be going?", he asked quietly.

"You're moving out of California", she said.

Naruto looked up at his mom with wide eyes. How was he supposed to tell his girlfriend this?

"You will move to Japan and stay there for sophomore year and go to a strict high school of your fathers' choice", she said as if it wasn't a big deal.

"Mom, if this is a joke, it's not funny at all", he said.

"I'm being dead serious right now", she said with her evil smile reappearing again.

"Have you lost your mind women?", he snapped at his mom.

"Shut up and let me finish", she snapped back cruelly at her son.

Naruto calmed himself down and continued to listen to his mom.

"You will be leaving for Japan in 1 month. That's enough time for you to pack up some of your shit, say good bye to your little girl friend, and prepare for school", she said with out any emotion.

"You act like you don't care at all", Naruto said sounding very upset and angry.

"Of course I care. I'll miss you", she said in her same emotionless voice as before.

Anger struck Naruto turning his face dark red. He could feel his veins bursting with adrenaline and hatred for his mother. He breathed in and out slowly.

"You act as if your life is over", she said.

"My life isn't over, but it's going to be a living hell!", he shouted at her.

"Don't talk to me like that you bastard!", she roared at him.

"Oh, I'm a bastard? I'm not the heartless bitch who would send there child to live in Japan with there father with such a short notice!", he hollered back at her.

Kushina's face turned dark red, an even darker shade of red than Naruto's. Naruto knew that his bad choice of words was going to get him in huge trouble.

"Shut your damn mouth and go to your room! You're grounded until you move back to Japan with your dad!", she screamed at him.

"Good! I don't care! Ground me!", he yelled at her.

He walked into the direction of the kitchen to get his ramen.

"I said got to your room!", she yelled even louder than the first time.

"A boy can't eat his ramen with out being scolded?", Naruto yelled.

"Get your ass in your room now!", she screamed so loud that there neighbors could probably hear.

Naruto went upstairs into his room. His eyes began to water, but he didn't cry. He hated arguing with his mom. He loved her, and she loved him, but it was hard for them to get along in situations like this. "Why is she doing this to me? How am I going to tell Shion about this, she's going to be so heart broken", Naruto thought to himself. He went to his Mac book and checked his facebook. His girl friend messaged her over 21 times. "I love her, but she's just so obsessive", he thought to himself while rubbing his temples.
