Takeshi looked around, the room was rather empty. His apartment room was divided into three parts, one for the living area, the other for his sleeping chambers, and the third for the bathroom which was inside the bedroom. Takeshi smiled, sighed and put the bag on a table. He went to the bathroom and showered. 'That girl…she was very pretty. But she is the Hokages' daughter, there is no way I could ever be with her, it would draw too much attention to me. Well too bad, she would've been worth it', he thought to himself. He turned off the water and got out, wrapping himself in a towel. He put on some clothes, "Might as well go buy food so I can make something", he said aloud. Takeshi grabbed some money and the key, walked out, locked the door, and walked to the market to buy food. The market was full of commotion. There were people everywhere buying and selling, others just walking by. The girls all giggled and squeeled when he walked by went to the fruit salesman and looked at the fruit. "Oh! Hi there Takeshi! I havent seen you since this morning!", Riko said running up to him. "Hello there, Riko," he replied. The group of girls behind Riko were upset and jealous that Riko was talking to Takeshi like a familiar. "What are you doing in the market today?", Riko asked. "Well Im buying some stuff so that I can eat. Although, its emberassing to say, I am not that much of a cook[due to my training with father] so I am just buying things like fruit and stuff," Takeshi said rubbing the back of his head with a stupid smile. The girls fainted when he smiled. "Well if that is the case, onee-san can cook for you if you'd like. Although she is a great kunoichi, she is also a great cook. Im sure that she wouldn't mind helping you with that," Riko announced rather loudly. Before Takeshi could even reply, girls attacked him from everywhere, "Oh Takeshi-san I can cook for you!" "No let ME cook for you Takeshi-sama!" Riko glared at them all angrily, pouting. Takeshi quickly got out of there with a substitution jutsu. They all whined about him not being there and decided to chase after him, wherever he was. "Jeez, its always the same with girls. Cant a guy get a break?", Takeshi said. He was at the back of all the shops. "Well apparently you are popular on your first day here Takeshi-kun,", Nutae said walking up to him with a bag on her right shoulder. "Nutae-san, what brings you to the market?" Takeshi asked. "Well apparently shopping does," she told him not stopping. "Hn," he said, walking back to the market with her. They walked in silence, and when they shopped together, none spoke a word. "Onee-san! I told Takeshi-sama that you'd cook for him! Isnt that great!", Riko said running up to them. Nutae blushed furiously and glared at her sister, "Onee-chan! I am not living with him! It would be weird if I'd cook for him!" "No it wouldn't onee-san! You'd be cooking for him as a friend, right, Takeshi-sama?", Riko said looking up at Takeshi. He finished paying a man and walked away, "Hn". "He is so strange, what is 'hn' supposed to mean anyway?", Riko complained. Nutae stared after him and sighed, "Come on, lets go buy fathers' ramen quickly or he'll have a cow." Riko nodded and they went off to the ramen shop.
