[ Introductions ]

Mitsuki Nomura was beaming as she carried the wicker basket in front of her with both hands. The four year old gripped tightly onto the handle so she wouldn't spill the fresh apples her mother just purchased at the market. Normally, at this time of the day, she would be with her Uba but as there was a family emergency, she had left for a couple of days leaving her mostly on her own. Because of this situation, she was was able to tag along with her mother on a quick errand to the market.

The young girl stayed closed to her mother as they traveled around the crowd of shoppers and lookers and whenever her mother stopped in front of a stand, the pigtailed girl would stand right next to her as it was expected. So when they left the marketplace to return back home, Mitsuki did not count they would make another stop along the way and as it was expected of her, she stood next to her mother.

As her mother continued talking to the woman, the young girl took notice of the boy who stood next to her. He was dark haired like the woman with dark colored eyes that stared curiously back at her.

"Darling," her mother called to her, "this is Mrs. Uchiha and her son Sasuke. What do we say?"

Mitsuki looked up to her mother who in turn gave her an encouraging smile before she faced the woman and her son.

"Hello, I'm Mitsuki, nice to meet you."
