My Truth and Your Lies

Chapter 5: Summer Day's Bickering

"I guess it's worth a shot!" - Hibiya Amamiya (From JubyPhonic's translation of 'Moonlight Recital')

Note: Hello! Haha... Sorry for taking so long to update. I was occupied with 3 school projects and a lot of homework. (Also writer's block...) This chapter wasn't too great in my opinion and it's really short. Sorry! Anyway, here's the chapter drabble thing. (Just watched episode 4 of the anime. Kind of disappointed.)


It was noon as I walked in the blazing sun. Kido sent Kano and I to our separate ways to find two children named Hibiya and Hiyori. It wasn't fair that Kano got Konoha while I'm all alone. Hmph.

I lightly jog as I search for the boy and girl that Kido showed me a picture of. My lavender hair got in the way as usual, so I put it up into a ponytail. As I was doing so, I bumped into a someone.

"AH!" the both of us yelped. We both fell onto the burning, hot concrete.

"Watch where you're going, four eyes!" I hear a boy's voice saying. I look up. I was pissed off.

"You little brat, what did you just call me?" The youngster stood up as I did.

"You heard me, four eyes! Or can you not understand me with the few brain cells you have?"

"Are you picking a fight me? Be respectful to your elders!" I exclaim as I put him into a 'harmless' headlock.

"Ow! What are you doing? I'm innocent. Stop it, you old lady!" I pause as I realized something.

"Brat, stand straight up! This is a command," I shout.

"What? Are you crazy or something, four eyes?" I glare at him and he freezes. He then did what I said to do. I examine his face. Wow, it's actually one of the kids Kido told me to find. What do I do now? Huh, it never occurred to me that I would be the one who would find him. Maybe I should ask pointless questions?

"What's your name, brat?"

"Hibiya."

"Are you lost?"

"Yes, ma'am." I pinch his cheeks with my hands.

"Don't call me ma'am! I'm only sixteen."

He got angry. "Who do you think you are? You're just a old lady! Hag!" I squish his cheeks more until I hear someone calling out for this boy.

"Hibiya-kun! That's where you were. Did you buy the thing I wanted yet?" a girl his age shouted. It was the other kid we were supposed to find.

Oh god, where's Kido when I need her.
