Itachi Uchiha, thirty years old and single. A successful businessman, everyone could agree on that. And to everyone surprise, he didn't even need the help of his father's reputation to get to where he is right now. The only thing that made him the powerful man he was right now in business was his own strength to fight for what he wanted and build his own career without the influence of the Uchiha's name following him.
When he started this business, he didn't use his father's name. He remembers being only eighteen when he left the house, he never really agreed on most of the things his dad did to get him to be the heir of the family. At that time, he was only for rebelling because he seriously hated the idea of having to only protect jewels his whole life. It's not that he didn't appreciate their values in the family's background history, but he just didn't see himself taking care of it as well as his father and his ancestors did before. What Itachi wanted was to be able to build a company with his own name, out of his father's grip, an international business which would never have to depend on the help of his name to get to where it is right now.
But that couldn't make sense to his father back then. Of course Itachi was the first son, and as such he had to be the heir and he wouldn't take any other action than obedience from him. So he left that night after the huge fight they had over the matter. He always knew he would have to go to such extent to be able to follow his own path, he just knew it, but he had a reason to dread that solution. And the only reason why he tried to act peacefully with his dad was his little brother, Sasuke. He knew that if he left, then his father would throw the responsibility onto Sasuke's shoulders, and would do anything to not let him wander off the path he wants him to take like Itachi did.
That's what made him slightly hesitate in front of the door of the mansion he lived in for so many years, twelve years ago. He seriously pondered about the fact that if he did this, not only his own fate would be changed but the way it would affect Sasuke's as well. His brother was just fourteen at that time, not that young but at the age where business and inheritance isn't all that important to you.
But he decided that he would come back for Sasuke if he had to, but he couldn't go on like this and left. Right now he might be Itachi Uchiha the successful businessman, but man the hell he had to go through once he found himself, at eighteen, alone in the streets with a wallet that only held barely one hundred dollars that he took from his own savings. He regretted not listening to the voice of his reason to not spend that much money because he had a lot of it due to his father's company.
Who could actually survive with one hundred dollars, with no jobs and certainty that once he actually tried to look for a job and blurted out his last name he would only end up being brought back home in his father's grip. That's when he thought about changing his last name, after all his father was so protective of them that he had a strict rule that before they were able to take over the inheritance they wouldn't show themselves to the world. So it's incognito that he walked in the crowd, nobody recognizing the strong facial resemblance he was said to have with his father. They all shared the same, but Sasuke had more of his mother's softness while Itachi had more of his father's cold traits.
That didn't stop Sasuke's personality to be the exact opposite from his mother and instead take over the same as their dad, and Itachi to have a softer side to himself that he had to owed to his mother. But out there, there's not itme to think about anything but where you're going to sleep the next day, what you're going to be eating and keeping an eye around you in case some gangs decided to take you as a target, and in the streets it was even more dangerous to just wander alone at night. That he discovered it when he got in a dark corner without realizing and fell on a group of guys who didn't look all that kind. And that's the only time Itachi actually thanked his father for one thing he did right, taught him how to fight. He got out of it with bruises of course since he was alone against at least six of them, but nothing too bad.
The first year had been the hardest, living on small jobs and meaningless salary that couldn't even last for a week, but he could at least survive. What he was looking for was to find that building and the man he met only once in his life. Blond hair, blue eyes, deep blue eyes and a smile that could really melt anyone's heart, no wonder that man had all the woman and girls swooning over him. He had a certain charisma that Itachi couldn't help but notice and also he was a man who got to where he was by working hard by himself.
He came to pay a visit to the Uchiha family because he was friend with his mother, Mikoto, they were childhood friends and he just found where she lived. Though he only paid one visit because him and his dad had some bad connections he never pondered on. After all, his father was known for actually having a character that gained him a lot of enemies and bad words. So it was nothing new. But when he left Itachi went to ask his mother who he was, and by the way she spoke about him, he knew he had to be someone she really cherished, almost like a brother. And she told him how he went from a boy who had nothing to a man who now had everything he ever desired. But that to get where he was he, Minato Namikaze, he had to give up on a lot of things and compromise half of his happiness. His mother never told him what she meant by that, but after he went to Minato's building and asked to see him, using his last name for the first time in months (and it did felt odd.). The man received him, though he looked rather confused as to why Itachi was in such a bad state and why he was here to see him.
Minato was a kind man, that Itachi had pretty much guessed right. And even though at first he was really reluctant to help Itachi, for the younger boy might not be a minor anymore but he was still young. Very young. But then, when Itachi seemed to look really disappointed, it,s as if the older man felt guilty and there, just there where Itachi was sitting, he saw himself, years ago trying to find a way out of the poor life he had.
That's the reason he gave for taking Itachi as an employer in the company.
But the young Itachi back then didn't mind what reasons he had, and right now, he could say he kind of owed what he had to the man and since Minato knew what it was, he became more of a mentor to him. His business were meanly for the security and protection, yes those kind of stuff where you have to go to a customer, place an alarm to their door or give people a security guard and he was the most prosperous one at that time.
Itachi asked him once, why he chose this domain, and he told him it was because he wanted to give a sense of security to anyone who needed one. A really touching goal indeed, but even Minato had to say he drifted away from it, because in the end all that mattered was that he was the founder of the society and as such he had responsibilities that didn't allow him to actually think about the main goal. But it was still at the tip of his lips whenever someone asked him.
It only started with him guarding people house, and since he had skills in fighting and martial arts he was doing a good job and that's when he decided he would create this company. And then Itachi took after him when he retired. He was still able to work, but he said he had some unfinished business he wished to accomplish before dying. He just had to find it, the thing he lost while getting up to where he is now.
Itachi was twenty two when the older man left the company into his hands. He took care for four years, to train him and gave him the choice to do what he wanted to do. Not feeling pressured or feeling it was something he was forced to do was a feeling Itachi enjoyed with Minato's way of doing things. The older man was around forty when he quit, quite young yes, but he didn't have that much time left anyways. Some problems with his health he never told Itachi, who never asked because he had the decency to think that if he wanted him to know he would tell him.
And Itachi was here today, at the desk where Minato's was before, in the same office but with a different air, sitting there, a letter in hand and he read over the words, wondering why it came so soon. In clear letters was written that Minato was dying, and thus needed him to come to his side because he had to talk to Itachi before finally giving his last breath. He just imperatively needed to talk to him.
So his mentor, the man he almost considered as the father he wished he had was going to leave this world soon. He sighed again and closed the letter, leaning back in his chair and rubbing at his temples.
Ah, someone obviously told Naruto about Itachi story probably, because it made him feel lightly better that he isn't the only one who went through this. And getting past the reception to talk to the owner of this building so he can leave his cv here is really the most difficult thing he ever did in his life. Yes, he knows it's Sasuke's older brother building, and yes he knows he has to have an appointment before just appearing like that. That girl does not need to repeat all of this, he knows it.
It's been two weeks since he ate a decent mean, though his usual food consisted mostly of ramen when he was really angry, but hey, he still wanted to eat real food from times to times. And he really preferred ramen to rice. And rice was the only thing he was getting down in his stomach lately, even Neji was worried, that proved he had to get back on track. The main reason why he was left penniless was because it was part of the second part of the plan. He had to turn to the state of the young student who had nothing but his scholarship that was miraculously added to his profile and no checked because the guy who took care of the files an accomplice.
There were a lot of other people Naruto did not know that were looking after the mission he was n right now. Tsunade kept some of them secrets because she said it was better this way and even if they caught one, he wouldn't be able to give the others because all of them do not know who has been added to the mission. And yes, they were people in the team Naruto never met and they were some who never saw each other too.
Those were probably some who were living overseas, or again just there to watch or just there as a type of support or second hand. Whatever they were, Naruto didn't know them and he wouldn't care until he saw them with his own eyes. So he probably better stop thinking about them. He sighed softly as he looked at the receptionist again for a long, long time before turning around and giving her his back. She returned to whatever task she was doing, thinking he was done with harassing her, she knew these types they were just poor people trying to get in the best company ever, well he can dream on.
But Naruto was having none of that, he was just calming his nerves down and thinking of a way to do this. He grabbed the envelop where his cv was and walked straight to the exit before stopping dead on his track and a low stretch of his lips were enough to make his face a silly grinning one with really, really trained seductive power dancing in his blue seas. There's nothing girls can do against this charm and as soon as he turned around and flashed her a smile, it's as if she was looking at a totally different person and she stared mouth agape, letting go of the binder she was holding up and cleared her throat as he leaned over the counter.
"So miss." He started, tone dropping low as he stared at her flushed cheeks and couldn't help a smirk at the corner of his lips. He looked down at her open binder then up at her in a slight moue, "I really need this job." He frowned his eyebrow together and the moue became so, so adorably irresistible that she had to stop an 'aw' from escaping her mouth. But she couldn't tear her eyes away and she leaned in further, nodding while he was talking.
"You understand right?" He tilted his head to the side, just adding a bit of adorableness in the seduction was a better way. He knew this type, they didn't really appreciate bastards nor playboy, but cute boys were winners, or even better handsome and he was both, just a great luck for him.
"Of course I do." she answered softly and seemed so emphatic Naruto only flashed her a toothy grin that nearly blinded her and he saw her blink twice, bite down on her bottom lip and a totally red blush appearing on her high cheeks as she rose from the counter and looked through her binder.
"I can find you a place, wait a second." And Naruto just did that, waiting wasn't something he minded as long as he knew he would get an appointment right now with the P.D.G of this building. It didn't take her as long as the first time he asked her and before leaving to where she indicated him he thanked her with a small smile that disappeared in a wince once he was back to her. He sighed as he got in the elevator. There's one thing he knows about the older Uchiha that Tsunade thought they could use to get him this job.
He looked up to an old man that was the original owner of this building. She made Shikamaru search, and of course the hacker could get any type of information wherever he wanted to find it. The name of the man who made this company was Minato Namikaze, he's a single man, now old. Not that old though, around his fifty? Just like Tsunade, Naruto had mentioned when she was talking to him about the man and got the kick of his life. But hey, he's used to it.
Minato is a very strong man and he went through a lot of things before getting where he was, plus, he got there alone. On is own. Naruto couldn't help but glance around the building, impressive. A man alone can get so far away by his only will of being successful in life. Though Tsunade told him he had to give up on a lot of things that would have certainly made him happier, and thus why he suddenly left the company reins in the hands of a boy he'd help and trained to be able to get away from the grief of his father's name.
Yes, that boy was Itachi Uchiha. It is say that Minato saw himself in the eyes of the eighteen years old boy who came to him because he no more wanted to stay in a castle full of gold and do nothing of his life except what his family wanted. And although the reasons weren't the same. But the determination, the strong will and the brave tingle in the deep of Itachi's black eyes, that's what decided the man. It's something Naruto also noticed, Sasuke has them, but a bit more held back than his brothers. Maybe because he was the one who stayed behind and had to follow the family rules till he finally decided to do something of his own as the only condition for him to take over the inheritance. And he became a teacher. The only real luxury he could accord himself as something he chose for himself.
That was sad now.
Naruto frowned upon entering a spacious area where at his left a desk was placed, a man was sitting there and merely looked up at him before tilting his head to the side and examining him.
"You are?" He asked softly and Naruto smiled down at his blank expression.
"Naruto, I'm here to see Mr. Uchiha, I have an appointment." he was sure he would be asked that if he didn't say so just before and he calmly showed him the paper the receptionist gave him and the man took it, studied it before handing it back to him and nodding.
"He's in his office.." the man returned to what he was doing on his computer and Naruto shrugged with an arched brow and went to the office where he was supposed to find the older man. Now that was a weird one, was he Itachi secretary? Though he did sense that the younger boy looked up when he knocked at the door and waited for a reply, so he was intrigued after all. He stopped the smile on his face when he heard a voice tell him to come in and opened it slowly.
."What is it?" He was speaking casually because he thought it was the man he engaged as a secretary who came in, shame on him he really can't seem the remember the redheaded boy's name. He lifted his gaze and frowned upon meeting blonde locks. For a moment, Itachi thought his eyes were playing a really dirty tricks on him and then he softly dropped the paper in his hands and focused his stare on the male entering his office and coming to him without flinching once or dropping his eyes once when their eyes met.
"Can I take some of your time?"
Naruto only held because he had the instinct to not give up or seem like he was scared of someone when they were challenging him, and it was obvious Itachi thought he would just surrender to his gaze, but he instantly tore his eyes away when he remembered why he was there. He wasn't supposed to show this much, plus if he wanted to make sure Itachi believed his 'poor boy who wants to get up by himself' cliché thing then he needed to act weaker than that.
He scratched the back of his head as he stood awkwardly under the older man's stare, sure he was supposed to act. But as soon as he dropped his guard, Naruto could feel why anyone would feel uncomfortable under Itachi's eyes, they were really, really observing. And it's as if they were trying to tear through your soul and search deep within to find your inner turmoil and steal all of your dirty secrets.
He cleared his throat, indicating he was waiting for a reply and the older Uchiha raised his head, he wasn't frowning anymore but he was still pleasantly intrigued.
"You have my attention." He softly said and Naruto smiled before taking the sit the man pointed to him. People said Itachi had warmer eyes, but for him, there was nothing warm in those dark pupils! They were as cold as the younger one's. Maybe it runs in the family?
Naruto had been trained intensively for the meeting with Itachi because Tsunade knew it, if Naruto ever failed to gain his trust about his story, he was going to fail and his cover was going to be discovered. Yeah sure, no pressure at all he thought as he looked down, bangs softly falling on his eyes before looking up.
"I'm looking—for a job." He was stuttering half on purpose and half because he suddenly got nervous and he knew he couldn't. If he screwed this up, he could forget returning to the team since he would put them in danger and he could also forget about living a peaceful life.
"And I was wondering if you were looking for someone. I'd do anything! I just want—want to work here." He ended up and bit down on his lip, now that was on purpose. He watched behind a careful gaze at Itachi's unchanging expressions, but never dropped his mask.
"And just what brought you to me?" Itachi now held a small smile on his lips, rather interesting if you ask him, but suspicious at the same time. It looked way too much like a scenario he knew way too well and it all seemed as if it was trap someone was trying to close on him. But he liked that, he liked challenges, and he also liked the look the blond gave him before dropping his eyes down.
"It's a company for protection." Naruto's smile was sincere he found out, surprising himself. Even during the training what he said also felt sincere, he just knew that if this wasn't to get to a goal, and he had to pass this interview to get this job, that's what he would be saying. Because that's the first thing that came in his mind when he looked at the type of company it was. A company for protecting people was surely to bring security and safety to family right? To make a place feel safe no matter where you are and to make a home a place where you can't fear anything and as he thought about it, he said it out loud a small smile gracing his lips.
"And I want to protect people from any harms." Because he knows how it is, to feel insecure and for a second Naruto's mask wasn't so much of a mask anymore, but he quickly came back to himself and looked up at the older man.
"So I'm here because I heard this is the only company who cares about such values, and as such, I really hope you can hire me." He stood up and bowed before Itachi could say anything and left the envelop on the table.
"Thanks for your time." He silently walked out of the office without waiting for Itachi's answer and the older man watched him leave, speechless but not showing it and arching a brow when a grin appeared on his face. Now, the boy didn't even give him his name and he just left as if he knew Itachi wouldn't accept him. Or did he think so? He leaned further in his chair and grabbed the brown envelop left on his desk, he didn't look like someone desperate to get in. But he did look like someone who would fit in, he was sure Minato would agree. Thinking back about his mentor made him frown sadly, the first thing he thought he saw when Naruto entered was the old man, years younger and healthier. But that might also be because he missed the older man and the thought of him leaving so soon was kind of hard to bear.
He pulled the paper out of his cover and another surprise hit him when he saw the name on top of it.
Well, this is something Sasuke might want to hear.
He closed his eyes as soon as the sun hit them and looked down with a low growl. His hands in his jeans pockets and a backpack hanging loosely on his right shoulder, over a dark jacket made of leather and he stopped for a moment to adjust his eyes to the light. When you've been in there for so many years, there's only the excitement of finally feeling the sun on your skin when you come out and yet all he could feel was the bitterness of the years he lost in there.
His eyes were quick to adjust and even enjoyed the warmth that spread on his eyelids and on his cheeks as he looked up, still closing them. He only opened them bit by bit, slowly taking in the rays of sun shining through his eyelashes and then he was looking at the blue sky, enlightened by the sun.
He pulled one hand out of his pockets and we could hear the sound of metals clinging against his each other, a grey key-chain enrolled on his finger that he smiled at. This is something he missed he thought as he stared straight at the giant monster in front of him, in the name of a black bike he owned very well and that was probably rusty now. He groaned at the thought and smirked, he was going to have to get used to this again.
But it felt good, being free felt really good.
The long dark haired boy stared down at his friend, hands crossed on his chest and a mocking grin not leaving his features as he watched him battle with his studies.
"You're going to fail this test." He stated as matter of fact and ignored the glare sent towards him. Though it's a sight he quite enjoyed since it's not always that he could piss off the cheerful Naruto. But he found out, there's nothing Naruto hates more than failures and he was failing hard in Psychology plus.
"Well, if you didn't sleep during lessons and listened carefully, then you would first of all avoid chalks being thrown at you and avoid pissing off the teacher and also failing his first test." Neji pointed out, pulling a chair to sit down next to the frustrated blond male. "No need to remind me." Naruto sighed softly, trying to get too much in his skull and ended rubbing at his temples and leaning in his chair with another frustrated growl.
"I give up, this isn't for me!" He exclaimed and stood up. "Anyways, this class is too hard and our teacher isn't that well at teaching it! So it's not my fault. If he was that good then I would be able to understand even when it's hard you see." Naruto smiled at Neji as if he made valid point and for once he had to wonder about the blonde's mental level.
"You're sprouting nonsense." He got up, still grinning. "And you know it." Then he sighed, this was fun, really fun, but maybe he should try to help, just this time. "I'll help if you calm down and maybe you could use a tutor you know, in case I'm not always there." Neji suggested as Naruto shot him such a grateful gaze he groaned under the blonde's totally happy gaze. And then as they sat back, Naruto looked at him a thoughtful look on his face and he bit down on the end of his pencil.
"A tutor?"
Neji nodded, not noting what he just put in his friend's mind as the blonde grinned to himself. "You're a genius." He mumbled and focused on what he was explaining. "Of course, I know." Neji laughed softly when he was pushed playfully on his shoulder and he cleared his throat. "Study now." Naruto has a hard skull when he doesn't want to learn and right now, all of his mind was focused on an idea he just had and he was thinking about how to do it and not fail at accomplishing it. And yes, Tsunade wouldn't agree, but hey she left him on his own and he could do anything right now, on his free will. Except steal. He bit inside his cheek, that he kind of broke that condition.
"Are you even listening?" Neji snapped, sighing when Naruto turned a blank stare on him.
"I'm not doing this anymore." He left his pencil on the book where only his writing was and couldn't help the frown on his face as he stared at his hands.
"Naruto." He softly started and the blonde who was paying attention this time and Naruto turned his attention on him, because it's really, really rare that Neji just start calling him by his name out of nowhere. Yes, only weeks helped him pick up some of the younger boy's antics and habits. And he seemed to not like to call people without reason. At least, Naruto name without reason, the first time he called it was when the blonde took him out to the club, once again and he found out that Neji could really freeze someone with his glare. The second time had been in psychology class when Naruto was trying to distract him and successfully pulled his attention off the board for a mere second before Sasuke was on them and Neji stopped talking to him for the whole day and never spoke to him at night either. He had to really apologize for what he did before, it's funny, but he didn't want to piss the younger boy anymore.
"Did you steal Sakura's jewel?"
Yes, this is what he's talking about. This personality of his. Trust Neji to be straightforward and not mind that he's being too blunt on those things. If Naruto hadn't been trained to take in the shock and hide it from his face he would have certainly sold himself as soon as he heard the question. But it was so true that it only made him laugh and the boy next to him frowned, thinking maybe it was really ridiculous and he began laughing again. He just had to ask, because it was bugging him, that's all.
"Sorry, but I couldn't resist." He explained once Naruto stopped laughing and the blonde was totally in control of his emotions when he looked back at him with a grin, "It's okay. But what made you think that?"
"You know, you came late in and I wasn't sleeping. I couldn't because I was studying." He shot the blonde a grin when studies where mentioned and shrugged, "And I think I saw you hide something then I thought maybe it was just my imagination. And anyways, if you stole it, I don't think you would want to keep it on you would you? It would be dangerous." Neji spoke softly, a small smile on his lips and Naruto replied to it, nodding. "I agree." Neji could really join the team, he was smart and had the brains, although Shikamaru covered that, but Shikamaru was only good with technology, while Neji was good with thoughts. No wonder he was Sasuke's favourite in class. Oh please, everyone can see it, it's blatant he fancies the boy for his knowledge, though he likes to say that he does not fancy any students, but seriously he doesn't think his students are stupid and blind does he?
"Sorry to deceive you, but the only thing I can steal is my way in and out of a bar with no bruises." He pulled his tongue at Neji who rolled his eyes. "Sure thing, I can quite see that." he added joining along with a chuckle before hiding a yawn behind his hand.
"You should go to bed." Naruto told him and Neji nodded, because he wasn't used to staying up so late anyways. He always studied way earlier unlike some blonde who preferred his nocturne activities.
"And I'm going to fill my brains with useless shit."
"No swearing."
Naruto was caught off guard and looked behind him, but Neji was asleep. That's just..he sounded just like the nun he had back at the orphanage. That was...unexpected.
He failed, he knew it the moment he stared at the paper and couldn't see anything but a blur of words. So it's no wonder he groaned when the bell rang was heard and he annoyingly ignored Neji's chuckle as he passed next to him. Naruto rose with his paper. He might have failed that, but this wasn't going to fail. Neji gave him an idea he wanted to use. And yes, his boss was smart and all and she did plan this in a good way, but one thing is sure, it's not by working at the Itachi's company that he was going to learn more about the younger boy.
He never comes to visit his older brother that's for one. And yes, Naruto got the job. Right now he was a security guard, placed there as soon as Itachi took sight of his cv and watched over his skills. It was as impressive as Sasuke's, and that was something in itself. Sasuke was the Uchiha who lasted longer with the family, so he learned more than Itachi did. Naruto walked towards the desk and placed his test on the table to grab Sasuke's attention who looked up, end of pencil on his lip and glasses he put on earlier sliding at the bridge of his nose. But as soon as he saw who was standing there he straightened up and his eyes lost their questioning glint as he turned to fully face him.
"Yes? Can I help you, Mr. Uzumaki?"
Naruto flinched at the use of his name, for some reason it did not sound good when said like that. "Is it a problem if you just call me Naruto? That would really help." Naruto asked first, noting the glare Sasuke sent his way with a small grin, wasn't this interesting?
"I'll call you as I wish. Now if you don't have anything to tell me, you can leave the classroom." He was going to pay attention to what he was looking before Naruto interrupted him and ignore him, but hey, there's one thing Naruto thinks Sasuke's got to learn. You can't ignore a blonde head ready to make a living hell of your life.
He'd thought about it yesterday, he knew he couldn't learn easily and he was the type to need to be told twice before it got in. And then Neji mentioned a tutor and at the thought of it, he quickly thought about something. Now, for once that he was using his brain, he was sure Gaara would agree on that. He had to admit, it was for a good use, both to his amusement and both for the mission so it was a win win for him and the team.
"Now, that's not a way to treat your student." Naruto mumbled softly, sighing. "And here I was thinking about not telling the director that I was failing your class." That got the raven's attention immediately and he shot him nasty look that didn't even make Naruto flinch. Instead he went on as if nothing happened and sighed once again to make it more dramatic before moving away frm the desk and starting to walk out of the room.
"Well, I guess it can't be helped huh? Sasuke Uchiha's reputation as the teacher who never had a student fail might really end there."
Ah, Sasuke knew what he was trying to do there. He knew it very well and maybe that's why it was working, or maybe not, but either way, he found himself taking his glasses off and stopping Naruto before he could get out of the room.
"Okay, what do you want, Naruto."
"That's a start." Naruto grinned, knowing very well it was instead a huge step.
"Be quick, I don't like being threatened."
Well, maybe he should make it quick since the older man was looking like he was going to commit murder soon.
"Fine, you're not fun at all." Sasuke held his breath, and took it out, he was going to say something but was cut short by Naruto's words.
"I want you to tutor me."
A/N: I'm not used to writing long chapters you know, so it feels so weird when I go over 5k u.u but hey, I can't help it. Do you guys found them boring? Or you don't mind long chapters? XD though, it might only be on the spurt of the moment that I do that...it's not planned! So I'd like to know. And yes, it's slow, the pace is slow, I'm warning you, but hey lemme tell ya...it's slow but only if you just want to se Narusasu fucking each other in the beginning...other than that the relationship I'm building right now isn't that slowly in my opinion...I think I'm going a bit too fast, or is it just me? haha anyways, did you guys like this chapie? I'd love reviews, they're welcomed.
