Hate & Hunger
Knock, knock.
No reaction.
Knock, knock, knock.
The door opened slowly. I switched off my light.
„Oh, so you are awake. Do you need something?"
The person came in.
„You're not talkative, mh?"
He closed the door and came near. Then he turned the light on again.
„Why are you crying? Are you scared? Don't worry, I'm not here to let you suffer. But it would be nice if you cooperate with me."
„No, I won't. Don't treat me like a guest. I know you! I know your past! Don't try to fool me like you did with Sasuke! I'm not him!"
Tears ran down my cheeks. I wanted to ask him my questions. Hate grew instead.
„Kisame was right. You know a lot. But why are you so mean to me? I want to be gentle and you are so impolite. You are like my brother. But it's ok. I can wait until you want to talk with me more adultly. See you later, foolish little girl."
He left.
Later that day it knocked again. The door opened and Itachi stepped in. He carried a bottle and a bowl of rice.
„Are you hungry?"
„No. Go away and play with your friends! Oh, I forgot! They are dying one by one! You will be the next, Itachi!"
„Na, na...don't talk too much or I'll torture you a bit. I think you know what I mean."
„Do as you like. I hope you will loose your eyelight!"
He sighed and suddenly he smiled very kindly and ate my rice in front of me.
„This tastes good. Yummy! Wanna have some? Oh you don't want – I forgot!"
Both of us heard the loud revolt of my stomach.
„Are you done with your childish game? I have other things to do."
„Tell me why!"
„Why I killed my clan? That's none of your business."
„If you want that I cooperate, tell me."
„Why were you traveling with Sasuke?"
„Because I wanted to."
„Why do you know about our pasts?" 'Not again...'
„Give me something to eat!"
„Here...It's not like we want to lock you up, but you disturb our plan. And now tell me more about you."
I ate and drank with an amazing speed. When I finished, I looked at him with a little smile:
„And now give me something to put on or I'll catch a cold. Thanks."
He gave me his mantle and I put it on.
„I think it suits me, don't you think?"
„Yes, but you can't join us. You would make it worse..."
„What?"
„The plan!"
„To get a lot of cash etc?"
„You mean the words of our leader?"
„Yes."
„No...this is not important for me."
„Oh really?"
„Yes, but I can't talk about it."
„Why not? You can trust me!...I want to help Sasuke! I don't want to see him in danger or dying! Let me go! Please!"
„No and I must go now. Rest a bit, you seem to be ill."
„Why?"
„You have a fever..."
And he left again.
