Chapter Three:

Itachi was teaching me how to throw kunai properly, and really the boy had the patience of a saint because I am a bad student. At least I am when the teacher is someone my age who well honestly I don't really care for very much. Really he dealt with me throwing a fit by stomping my foot and getting testy every time we disagreed, which we did often. However he just smiled through most of it while calmly dealing with me, even when I hit him on purpose. Hey! It was his own fault because he said I have really lousy aim, which I know I have but there was not need for him to rub salt in the wound. I had already lowered myself, in my viewpoint that is, by actually asking him for help with my technique. I can say at least this much in a positive light though, and that is that I actually did improve as the day went by. We had taken a break before we both went home and were now sitting under a tree chatting about nothing really.

We had more classes than I had known together, apparently Itachi was actually pretty observant about such things. We also talked about his cousin Shisui who would be here tomorrow for sure, so I could get Tano to finally say thank you. She would fight me of course, but eventually I would get my way in this and maybe Tano could move on. Then again Itachi had dropped a hint that Shisui might like Tano back, at least he said he often teased Shisui about her. After that our conversation veered off to what we both wanted to do after the academy, and both of us were interested in the Anbu squads. Although mine was more medical inclined, from the way Itachi talked I could tell he also had some goal of helping others too.

"So...I would like to say thank you and that I am sorry..." there I finally did it, well blurted it but same thing. We had just finished talking about the Anbu squads, but I needed to head home soon and I guessed he did as well.

"Your welcome...and...its fine, really I only did it to motivate you...which in my defense worked." That infuriating grin was back but this time I couldn't find the energy to get angry at him and just laughed.

"Yeah, well it worked...I've improved more with your help than I ever would have on my own." It was easy to admit that now after hours of working together and him being...well himself, he was not so bad.

"If you would like I can help you again...whenever we are both here training..."

"Uchiha-san! I can not take away from your training by allowing you to do that!"

"Don't worry, I'll be fine and helping you is still training in a way...if you really want to push me not helping you for that reason." He laughed then "or is it just because you don't like me?" I couldn't help but laugh again and shake my head at him as I weakly punched his arm.

"After spending all day with you...I think I can find you...tolerable..."

"Tolerable...I can work with that, I'll see you tomorrow Fujimoto-San." He was up and already moving before I could get another word in so I just huffed as I stood glaring at his back. 'He really is rather maddening...but...I'm glad..' He really had helped me a lot, and already offered to do more. Not to say I liked Itachi now or anything so stupid, but I could see us being friends if I got over the problems he had inadvertently caused. Those problems were mainly other people though, and really I did not see them going away anytime soon. I knew though, that I could not pass up his help if I really was planning on joining a Anbu squadron because I was not going to die.

I refused.

So I sucked up my urge to not only yell but also chase after him as I stood up dusting off my pants with a shake of my head. I sighed as I started towards town dragging my feet, I really did not want to go home tonight but I knew I needed to. The trip did not take as long as I would have wanted, but that was my luck when it came to this house and its people. It was quiet when I entered the front door and while I was relived I also knew it could not last for very long. I made it through the living room, kitchen and had started up the stairs for my room when the hall light above me flickered on.

"Sayuri...your home finally..." I glanced up to see my Aunt standing at the top just far enough away I could get to the landing. I said nothing as I joined her at the top of the stairs with a feeling of dread, as nothing she ever said to me was positive.

"Yes..." I knew I mumbled and knew she was displeased as she scowled down at me.

"I just figured I would let you know I am taking your mother to my house, so you will be here alone. You seem to prefer it that way so hopefully your happy with that, I'll make sure you have enough money to take care of yourself though. I suppose it is expected of me even if I don't want to..." With that she turned and headed back to my parents room. I knew better than to say anything in the face of that scornful tone so I just bit my lip as I stood there for many long minutes. It felt wrong that her words actually made me happy and I wanted to rush over to Tano's to let her know. I knew though that leaving would only get me into more trouble than I had already placed myself into and decided against it. I took a deep breath as I scurried to my room closing the door behind me as quietly as I could manage before I pressed my back to the now closed door with a sigh.

'Is it finally going to be better...?' I dared to hope as I slid down the door a few tears trailing down my face as I closed my eyes letting me head fall back against the door. 'Oto-San...I really wish you were still here...I miss you so much everyday...but our family...it is falling apart.' I threw a arm over my face as I quietly cried to myself, my okay day had went completely down the drain with my aunts words. Now more than ever, I missed my father and his strong presence in my life for he had always comforted me in times like this. Now though I had to lean on Tano and her family for support, not my own. In just a few days I would be here all alone and part of me really was happy about that fact.

"Be Brave Saiyuri..."

My father's last words to me rang in my head and I wiped away my tears "I will Oto-San...I will..."
