Chapter 3
RECAP
I quickly payed my respects and placed the flowers at the foot of the stone, 'I guess another year where he didn't show up.' I thought as I started to walk away.
Somehow after paying my respects I wandered around and finally ended up at the bar. I don't normally drink but I guess remembering that day brought out memories and emotions that I had not felt so strongly for quite some time. So now here I was at the bar, wasting money I didn't even have.
"That guy had no rights to say all that stuff!" I slurred to the guy sitting beside me, as I ushered for the bartender to give me another. I guess you could say that when I was drunk I was the opposite of when I was sober.
"He doesn't know what I went through, seeing my own team mates die in front of my eyes!"
"YEA!" the guy beside me exclaimed pounding his fist down,
"I know right he was adding wounds to my …uhhhh…salt and he was…. Injuring my insults. GOSH!" I shouted abruptly standing up, "he could have shown some sympathy! Pftt stupid males." I mumbled sitting back down.
"YEA!..wait…" the guy rubbed his face "…what?"
I quickly got of my seat placing some money on the counter, "keep the change." I said coolly to the bartender
"But this isn't enou.."
"Nice talkin to ya." I said to the guy beside me as I walked out of the bar,
"YEA!" he shouted waving his glass,
'Nice guy' I thought as I walked out into the open air, I took a deep breath as I steadied myself so that I would make it to my apartment in one piece.
'It's an extremely quiet night today.' I thought as I opened the front door to the apartment and started walking up the stairs, 'I should sing!'
"Wake up in the morning feeling like P diddy" I sang as I did some hand moves,
"Grab my glasses, I'm out the door – I'm gonna hit this city
before I leave brush my teeth with a bottle of jack
cause when I leave for the night I ain't coming back"
I swung my hips from side to side as flicked my hair back and forth
"I'm talking pedicure on our toes toes
trying on all those clothes clothes
boys blowing up our phones phones
drop topping playing our favourite cds
pulling up to the parties
trying to get a little bit tipsy"
By this time I had almost reached the second floor,
"Don't stop make it pop
dj boom the speakers up
tonight Ima fight
til we see the sunlight
tick tock on the clock
but the party don't stop no
Oh whoa wa oh
oh whoa wa oh
At some point during this time I had fallen over and now I was sitting on the floor not bothering to get up.
I had already sung this song at least six times and I was still sitting cross-legged on the floor.
Meanwhile
"Oh my GOSH! SHUT UP!" I couldn't take it anymore, this was the worst singing ever, even I could sing better than this. There is a lady on the stairways singing and she's been doing it for ages and the same song too!
The first few times alright fine but after that it was like nails on a chalkboard! "Why today of all days when I have a test tomorrow! ARGH!" I shouted, as I lay there on my bed tossing and turning with my pillow trying to cover my ears.
'Look on the bright side, at least now you would have an excuse if you failed the test…. But then again no one would believe it.'
I threw the cover off and got up, I decided if I was going to get any sleep today I would have to do something about the crazy lady singing on the staircase
I quickly walked to my door and opened it, "hey lady could you…" it was a ninja…. A jounin. What kind of ninja sits on the floor and starts singing? She must be crazy, she's giving ninjas all around a bad name.
Suzume's POV
I heard a door open behind me, "hey lady could you.." I turned around to see a young boy staring at me, giving me weird look.
"Uhhh… you alright?" I stared at the little kid,
'WOW this guy's hair was so….bright, the only person with as bright hair as him was…..' I thought as I crawled over to the boy standing at the door, I slowly extended my hand to see if the hair was real.
"Ummm lady your startin to creep me out" the kid said glancing suspiciously at me,
I sat back down on my butt and pointed an accusing finger at him, "your starting to creep me out" I slurred as I tried to get up but my coordination was nowhere in sight.
"Uhh how bout I help ya" he asked, hesitantly making his way towards me,
"You sure you can hold my weight? I'm pretty heavy you know" I said playfully as I raised an eyebrow,
"Well I'm gonna be hokage someday which means the best of the best and if I can't help a lady like you well then how am I supposed to help an entire village? So that means I have to help you believe it!" he quickly placed one of my arms over his shoulder and lifted me to my feet.
'For a little guy he was pretty..'
"Wow you weren't joking when you said you were heavy."
I mentally sweat dropped, forget I said anything. "It's rude to talk about a women's weight like that" I pointed out as I poked his cheek.
He closed one eye in annoyance, "you said it first!" he said trying to defend himself
"So? Doesn't mean you should." I teased sticking my tongue out,
"What are you five lady?" (if only I knew the irony behind those words)
We got to my door and somehow managed to get the door open. Once I got into the apartment I gracefully fell onto the floor dragging the kid down with me. I turned and faced the boy, "you know, you're a good kid, I'm sure your parents are proud of you" I said patting him on the head
"I..I don't have any parents." The kid whispered softly looking down at the floor,
"Oh.. well if it makes you feel any better I don't either…. and I hope your dream of becoming hokage comes true...but your hair." I said staring intently at the bright golden locks, "it might be a problem, you see it's a bit too bright. People might go blind from looking at it" I said covering my eyes to emphasis my point as I fell to the floor in a deep slumber.
The kid's POV
I stared at the lady sleeping, for a second there I thought she was cool but no she's DEFINETLY crazy. Was she being honest about not having any parents?
'Obviously, who would lie about not having any parents?' I was just asking gosh.
I closed the door softly as I headed back to my apartment, 'man I haven't been able to have any sleep and I have the test tomorrow.'
'Would Iruka sensei let me off if I brought her as a witness? ? Nah he would think I paid her or something.' I thought as I jumped onto my bed and quickly fell asleep.
