At the southern part of Japan, the
At the southern part of Japan, the mansion of the Uchiha family could be found. They were the only family who shared the same status as the Haruno family. These two families hold a long rivalry, especially when the Harunos rose up in the business industry, unlike the Uchihas, who held their status from the beginning.
On one of the balconies in the Uchiha mansion, there was a young, raven-haired man leaning against his chair, while drinking his cup of tea. Standing beside him was his secretary, Karin.
"Uchiha-sama," the secretary called her master.
There was no response given by the Uchiha heir.
'The young master, he's so cool! Even though he acts cold, still everyone sees in him the potential to handle the family business. But still, there is one problem! He isn't open to anyone. He's too mysterious, and his best friend…'
Sasuke then looked at her with a cold gaze.
"Umm, your father has sent this." The secretary pulled a letter from the clipboard she was holding. "He said that he wanted you to read this as soon as possible." Then she handed over the letter, and placed it on the table beside her master.
Sasuke then put down his cup on the table, and stared at the letter.
'Kyaa! He's too handsome! The way he drank his tea, the way he sits. He's too perfect, except for his personality, and those rumors…'
Sasuke then tapped the table – meaning that he wanted to have some privacy.
'Oh no, he's in a bad mood!' the secretary thought."I shall take my leave, Uchiha-sama," she said politely, while bowing.
Karin headed through the door. As she reached for the knob, the door suddenly opened. A blond showed up, with a large grin in his face.
"Good morning, Uzumaki-sama," she greeted automatically, while bowing at him.
"Oh, Karin-san, there's no need to bow. We're cousins if you forgot" he replied with a smile.
"Karin?" Naruto said, while looking at his red-haired cousin.
"H-Hai!"Karin then stood straight.
"You don't need to be so polite, we're family" he said losing his smile in the process.
"I can't be disrespectful to the heir of the clan, Naruto-sama," she said blushingly.
"Karin"
"N-Naruto" She stummered and blushed.
Naruto smiled, and faced the Uchiha's direction.
"N-Naruto, do you wish for some tea or cookies perhaps?" Karin asked shyly.
"Iie, I already ate, but thanks," he declined politely.
"I shall take my leave then." Karin then left the balcony.
Naruto, on the other hand went to where Uchiha was.
"Ne, Sasuke?" Naruto called his best friend as he sat down.
Sasuke then looked at him.
"Gomen ne, I quite eavesdropped earlier. I was wondering, if the rumors were true, that you..." Naruto said curiously.
"...Naruto..." Sasuke replied.
"I know..." Naruto smiled.
Sasuke then pushed the letter near to Naruto.
Naruto then reached for the letter and read it. He chuckled as he read the letter, and Sasuke frowned.
"I think you should read this letter for yourself, but I must say, the rumors were true, but already known to the public before the main people." Naruto was quite amazed.
Sasuke then reached for the letter and read it. Naruto was anticipating a grin from Sasuke, but there was none.
Sasuke then placed the letter back on the table, and said "This is interesting."
Naruto was quite shocked, for Sasuke was quite interested in something about the arranged marriage between him and the first lady of the Haruno family.
"Do you want some help?" Naruto offered.
Sasuke nodded.
Naruto reached for his cell phone, and dialed.
'Jugo, I want you to look into everything about the next inheritor of the Haruno family," Naruto said on the phone.
"Arigato, Jugo." He put his cell phone back, and looked back at Sasuke.
"I heard that this person, she's quite a mischievous type of girl," Naruto informed. "And Sasuke, this is the first time you've accepted an arranged marriage and followed your dad's orders."
"There's nothing to do around here. I might as well have some fun teasing that girl," Sasuke replied, and stared back at the sky.
"So, you were looking for a playmate? This is interesting," Naruto smiled
