Confused and Struck

By: Silverwolf

Deidara follows behind the girl he'd spent the night locked away with. She takes the blonde along with her during chores of the house. Deidara follows along copying the girl's movement.s the girls rattles off words to Deidara. The blonde doesn't quite understand her, but by the sound of her voice he figures he isn't doing something wrong. Deidara hears her state somehting of decisions and school. Only able to pick out a few words Deidara can't make sense of what is being stated.

One of the women enters the room rattling words and holding a tray. Deidara looks at her confused. The woman points the blonde in the direction of a room. The blonde child looks confused. The woman pushes him lightly. Deidara looks towards the woman as she waves her hand. The child takes the motion as telling him where to go. The blonde steps across the floor towards the room. He carefully sets the tray down briefly to open the sliding door. Deidara silently delivers the tray of food. The old woman looks at Deidara and beings to speak. The blonde blinks unsure of what was said. He waits until the woman waves a hand. The child takes it as a sign he's dismissed. Deidara disappears from the room closing the sliding door behind him.

The girl looks at Deidara as the blonde creeps into step behind her. Though he doesn't understand a word of what he's told he still tries to keep everyone happy. The blonde is brought along by the woman towards a closet. The child stands waiting as boxes are stacked into his arms.

Azure eyes go a bit wide when one of the boxes is opened to reveal what the child could only describe as amazing clothing. Deidara watches as the woman motions for him to follow. The child follows carrying the boxes. The two women talk amonst each other as someone else enters the room. Deidara blinks as he's shoved by the other woman. While the female child bows respectfully Deidara stares at the woman that shoved him with narrowed eyes. A hand finds a place under Deidara's chin as he is stared at by the woman that shoved him. The woman laughs and runs a hand through his blonde hair. She soon frowns as Deidara moves away.

The blonde child does notice that the woman is wrapped in several layers of clothing. He pulls away from the woman holding his chin and disappears behind the two older women. The trio talk in front of him. The blonde child reaches across the table when he notices clay. He begins to form a small bird with a slight smirk. The oldest of the trio of women slaps Deidara with a piece of wood. The blonde child pulls his hand back with a stiffled yelp. The two mature wamen are marveled at the detail of the clay animal.

Deidara hides his hand under his other arm. He hears the woman rattle off some words while the second one yells. The child understands little of what is said. Deidara tries to seek a place to hide only to be snatches into sight. The woman in the layered clothing sneers at the blonde as she pulls him into sight. She states something and spits in Deidara's face. The child closes his eyes tightly. One of the more mature woman slaps the woman holding Deidara. The blonde child pulls away disappearing to the room he was first locked in.

Deidara watches from the cracked door as one youngest of the trio leaves. The blonde child still doesn't understand why he was hit. It wasn't as if he'd actually harmed the piece of clay. He'd only played with it a bit. Deidara moves from the door swiftly as it slides open. One of the women snatches the child down the steep stairway into sight. The same piece of bamboo strikes Deidara again. This time the second woman holds the blonde still so that a third strike hits the child along his back. Both women shoves the blonde back towards the girl. She pulls him along in silence. Deidara remains confused over the whole incident. Though he does notice that one the woman still holds the small clay bird in her hand.
