Chapter 4: Take Care of Me
Yūko quietly sat on Sasuke's bed, not moving from her spot since he left for training.
One minute
Ten minutes
One hour
Yuko sighed as fell back on the old mattress. She stretched her muscles and looked up at the cracked ceiling. It had been a few weeks since Sasuke had been training with Orochimaru. But for Yūko, it felt longer than that. That was probably because the same thing happened every day.
She would wake up early and go through the trouble of making Sasuke's breakfast, greeting Kabuto as he also was up early. Then she would go to his room and wake him up. He would mumble a 'thank you' and she would nod in response. After he ate, she would hand him his clothes for the day and after that he would tell her to stay in his room and to not come out until he got back. Yūko would sit on his bed and not do anything until after what seemed like hours until the Uchiha came back. And when he did, she would care to his wounds after the brutal training.
'Boredom is the absolute worst form of torture' Yūko mentally stated. She closed her eyes and rolled over to her left side, facing the wall. She thought some things, many things while she lied on the Uchiha's single bed. Like how bad Sasuke would smell after training. Or when he would demand that she would stop calling him 'Uchiha-sama' (she only said that to see his reaction) and even the times when he would sulk when she was too tired to pay any amount of attention to him.
Yūko sat up when she heard a knock on the door. She hesitantly opened it, knowing that Sasuke would be angry when he found out she did. She cracked the door open enough to see the person on the other side. "Kabuto-san?" she questioned eyeing the medic ninja.
"Please hurry up and open the door Yūko-chan" he grunted. Yūko raised a brow and looked to his right. She gasped and immediately opened the door to them in. Kabuto carried Sasuke in and tossed him on the bed. Yūko closed the door and rushed to the boy's side.
"What happened?" she asked Kabuto. She frowned at the bruises and scratches on his body.
"Sasuke-kun over worked his body. It won't be awhile until he can continue his training" Kabuto sighed, "he should be fine soon though"
"When is 'soon' Kabuto-san?" Yūko asked still staring at Sasuke.
"Still impatient like your father" he joked. She turned and glared at him. "A-anyway, he will feel a lot better if you give him some tea grounded by herbs" he laughed nervously, "luckily they can be found not too far from the lair"
Yūko sighed in relief. She thanked Kabuto and ushered him out of the room. "Ah before I forget. Orochimaru-sama and I will be leaving the lair for about a month or so. Take care of things around here until then" he said, more like ordering. She nodded and closed the door. Yūko heard moans of pain coming from behind her. She turned around and saw Sasuke attempting to get up. She rushed to his side helped him sit up.
"Y-Yūko" he managed to say. She knitted her brows and pulled his cheeks. He looked at her, confused.
"Don't push yourself too hard… you'll make me worried" Yūko mumbled.
"Hn" he said looking away from her.
Translation: I'm sorry
Her lips twitched into a smile as she wiped some dirt off his cheeks.
