Next day...
Everyone gathered for breakfast, but there was only one blonde man.
-And where is Naruto? - Sachiko asked
- I guess this idiot trained so long that he didn't even have the strength to come back. - commented Sasuke
Sachiko packed two rice balls and then went to look for the blonde.
Meanwhile, a certain black-haired woman dressed in a bright kimono was walking somewhere in the forest, suddenly she noticed Naruto lying.
-Hey, you shouldn't lie there or you'll catch a cold.
-I know, I was just training hard.
-You're a shinobi?
-Yes. He trains to become a strong shinobi.
-I understand, tell me do you have people you care about?
-Yes
"You'll become strong someday, for sure," she said as she walked away.
-What did she mean by that?
-Ah, one more thing, I'm a boy.
-NANIIIIIII?!
When Naruto was thinking about something, Sachiko approached him, hitting him on the head.
-Auu, what's that for?
-For your thoughtlessness, you are probably starving to death. - she said, handing the ball
-Thanks.
Sachiko sat down next to Naruto - "Tell me, why didn't you tell me earlier that the townspeople treated you this way?"
-I ... I didn't want to bother you with my problems.
-Baka, we are friends, we always tell each other everything.
Naruto for the first time in his life opened and said what he had been holding in himself so far, Sachiko pulled him into a tender embrace, after a while she heard his snoring and giggled while putting her head on her lap while combing his hair.
Kakashi watched the situation from the tree and smiled under the hood -"It's good that he finally confided in someone."
Sachiko ran her hand over his mustache, causing Naruto to purr, a moment later he opened his eyes.
-How are you?
-Much better thanks.
At this point, Sasuke joined them
-Stop hanging around, we're back to training
-You broke the cool atmosphere, teme!
Genin trained until late in the evening, the three came back, of course, Sasuke and Sachiko were holding Naruto.
-We made it, we reached the top, dattebayo!
- Well done, now sit down and it's going to be dinner
