Chapter Twenty

Sakura sighed softly again as she looked up to check out what her son was up to. He has been so quiet which was so unlikely for the small child, she had wondered if he was okay. His brows furrowed as he concentrated on his work, he had been drawing and writing for a while now and he had a permanent scowl-pout on his face.

"Tobi-chan?" Sakura called the young boy who had not bothered to look up from his work that he had been fusing on for quite a while now.

"Hai, Kaa-chan?" Tobi answered as he continued with whatever was keeping him from going to her to talk or to play, the young boy had groaned as he glared at the piece of paper in front of him.

"Are you alright baby?" Sakura was genuinely worried, she has never seen him this angry. He was only this angry when he saw his dad beating his mother. Tobi looked up at her giving her a fake smile but his eyes that bled crimson were a telltale sign of his frustration. She motioned her hand for him to come to her, and he slowly paced towards her as he sighed every step.

"Kaa-chan" Tobi raised his face up to meet her eyes, he looked sad and frustrated. She helped him up into her bed and leaned onto him, he buried his face in her chest and cried silently. She was shocked to say the least, he was so unhappy that her heart clenched at the feel of his whimpers. She kissed the top of his head and draw calming circles on his back.

"What's wrong baby?" She whispered and he sobbed harder with that she held him closer.

"You're leaving, aren't you?" He croaked out and he looked up at her. "Please don't go kaa-chan" His ebony bangs clung unto his face and his red eyes faded to sad jades again. She could not figure out how he thought about such an outrageous idea, where had her son hear that from?

"Baby, I'm not leaving" She kissed his forehead and his cheeks and took his chin and held it lightly. "Kaa-chan will stay here with you, kaa-chan will never leave you"

"Promise" He whispered and he held out his pinkie, she intertwined hers with his and he smiled sadly at hers. It was clear he knew something that she did not. What has gotten him so upset? She could not figure it out.

Tobi woke up to check if his mother was still beside him, what he had heard traumatized his mind. He could not bear thinking about his mother leaving him. He couldn't, didn't, wouldn't believe but what he heard had shook him up, he could not help not thinking about it. She had left 4 years ago and now she's back, he does not ever wanna lose her. 'She promised she'd stay'

Some Guy's Point of View

"Tobi-chan's gonna visit kaa-chan" a young boy sung as he made his way towards the elevator of the hospital. "Goodmorning Tobi-kun! Are you here to visit Sakura-sama?" A redheaded woman with thick rimmed glasses knelt down in front of the young child, he had messy spikes of ebony locks and eyes that were unmistakably the same as Sakura's. He nodded profusely as he hugged the nurse and bid her goodbye as he proceeded towards the elevator.

I followed the young boy towards the elevator and the child looked up at me and beamed, does he not know the phrase "Do not talk to strangers". He waved and tugged my hand as I turned my head away from him.

"Anou! Mister! Tobi's Tobi. What's Mister's name?" His naive jade orbs piercing through my soul, he looked hopeful as if I'd answer him. I rolled my eyes at him, he was just like his mother naive and persistent.

"I'm your uncle" I answered. "Sakura-chan's a really close friend to me." I added, and I looked away again but he tugged on my arm to catch my attention. I quirked an eyebrow at the boy who beamed at me and decided to play two questions with me.

"Anou, Mister Uncle what are you doing here?" He inquired and who in their right mind could lie to a child, I sighed and answered him.

"I'm here to bring Sakura-chan home" I tried my best to give him a smile and he stopped the elevator and proceeded to the stairs. I have heard of what the stupid Uchiha is doing to Sakura-chan, all of Konoha did, and that's why we requested to not continue this alliance with sound.

"Mikoto-san and Fugaku-sama has been great they gave us permission to take Sakura-chan back home where she rightfully deserves. They even said that they would keep the alliance even without her, how come their son had not inherited their kindness and thoughtfulness" I ranted to myself as I tapped impatiently.

Tobi's Location; Third Person Point of View

"Kaa-chan's going back to her old home, Tobi will be alone again. Tobi doesn't want Kaa-chan to leave, Tobi can't" The young Uchiha ran upwards on the long flights of staircase hoping he'd reach his mother before his 'uncle' could. His tears roll down his chubby cheeks as he ran as fast as he could.

"I'm here to bring Sakura-chan home" Tobi knew 'home' was not going to be the Uchiha manor. He couldn't bare it, the thought of someone taking her away right under his nose.

"Maybe if Tobi studies harder Kaa-chan will stay" Tobi whispered and nodded to himself determined to be better in the hopes of his mother to stay with him. "This is all Sasuke's fault, if he didn't hurt Kaa-chan she wouldn't have to leave.. She wouldn't have to get scared"

He ran faster and reached the top floor, He pushed the door as hard as he can and to his relief he saw that his 'uncle' did not come as fast as him, he was thankful. Maybe he wasn't going to continue anymore was what he hoped and prayed for.

'I won't let anyone take my Kaa-chan' Tobi declared as he stared at his mother's peaceful sleeping face. He laid his head back on her chest and drifted of to sleep. 'If she leaves, I'll never forgive you' was the last thought on the young boy's mind.
