"Okay! Where is she!" I said, whirling around few times as I made my way towards the counter.
The lady chewed her gum while forming a bubble as it popped. I wiped my face, because I could feel her spit all over my face. She pushed her glasses against her face. "Who are you looking for?"
I rolled my eyes. Why is she still working here? "Amu Yamanaka!" I said, hurrying her. It looked like she wanted to rip my head off for the way I was acting towards her.
She shot a glare at me as she narrowed her eyes, scanning the files in front of her. I waited, tapping my fingers on the counter. "Amu Yamanaka.. room 24. Go straight, then turn-..."
I cut her off, running wherever directions i'm going to. Room 20.. It says on the door as I pass through. That means I'm close. 21.. 22.. damn it where is it! 23.. aha! Room 24!
Without thinking, I twisted the door knob and barged in without even knocking.
I see my mom, laying down on her bed with a tray full of food. Her hair was messy and she looked tired.
She looked at me, giving me a startled face.
I smiled as tears were forming. I ran up to her, pulling her into a big hug. "Mom! Oh my god, mom! I missed you so much! I'm so happy to see your okay." I pulled her away to see her reaction was.
Her face was still the same when I walked in the room. She was still giving me a strange look as if she didn't know who I was.
I gripped on her shoulders. "Mom?"
She slowly pushed me away. "Who the hell are you?"
My hands fell to my side as I covered my mouth with eyes full of tears and shocked. "What do you mean? I'm your daughter!" I sobbed.
"Oh.. you must be a relative." A girl voice muttered behind me.
I turned around, noticing a tall woman dress in a white coat in front of me. She has long blonde hair in pig tails that hovered her shoulders. She looked like she's in her twenties. She's so young, how can she be able to be a doctor so early?
She raised her eyebrow. "I'm not young, ok kid? I'm old." She said, reading my thoughts as she pass me as her breasts jiggles.
Damn. I have to wait till' I'm old to get boobs like that?
She snapped her fingers as I look up. "Hey kid. Keep your eyes on me."
I flustered. "Whatever. Do you know what happened to my mom? It seems like she doesn't remember me."
She chuckled, as she patted my head. "Well thats a stupid question. Stop making blondes look bad. Isn't obvious?" She stated, looking at my mother.
I looked down on the floor, holding back my tears. "She has amnesia?"
I saw her nod.
"Well it is temporaily? When is it going away?" I said, noticing her face dropped I already know the answer.
"Sorry kid.."
"Hey mom! I got your vanilla milkshake you wanted." I cheered, closing the door of her room. I walked towards her as I handed her a drink.
I never went home. I wanted to stay her with my mom in the hospital so I could help her remember more. When she got hit, it damaged her head, big time. The doctors aren't sure if she'll stay like this forever.
I hope she could remember. At least remember me.
I took a seat next to het.
She thanked me taking a sip. "Ino, you been here... well... since I've been here."
I looked at her stange. "Yeah, so?"
"You haven't gone to school for two weeks. You smell like hospital. And you need to go home."
"What home!" I snapped at her. "Since your gonna be here forever, who's going to pay for the house I'll be living in?"
I heard a knock on the door as I saw her face light up. The door opened and there it stood a man in front of the door. He has long dirty blonde hair up in a pony tail. He has blue eyes... the same as mine.
"I think he can answer your question." She responded.
I got up from the chair, crossing my arms over my chest. "What is he doing here?"
She sigh, "He's here to take you home."
I freak. "Dad? No way. I'm not going home with him."
He looked hurt, but still kept a smile on. "Its nice seeing you again, Ino."
I huffed, "Well. Its not so nice seeing you."
I felt my mom smacked me in my arm. "Ino! Please, show some respect."
I looked angrily at her. "If you remember what he did to you then you'll probably be on my side."
"Ino. Go to your new home. That's an order." She protest me, laying comfortly down in her bed.
I roughly grabbed my things as I pushed past my father, leaving.
The car ride was silent which I prefer it this way. He looked at me, wanting to say something. I rolled my eyes, staring at the window. "You know I have people packed your things and moved it into my-.. our house."
"K."
He scratched his head. He didn't expect my answer to be so short and uncaring. He continued, "You must be hungry."
"Nope."
He frowned. "How's Sasuke and Naruto? Are they still being good boys to you?"
Now its my turn to frown. Just the thought of them makes me feel ten times worst. "How the hell am I supposed to know? We're not close anymore." I stated, wiping tears on my face.
He glance at me and thats his cue to stop talking.
When we got home, our maids opened the car door for us to get out. That never changed. I wanted to carry my things, but they insist on carrying it themselves.
"You remember your room, right?" My dad questioned, walking inside our enormous house.
I nodded, walking upstairs.
"Remember to sleep good tonight! You have school tomorrow!" I heard him yell behind me.
I groaned too myself. School? Fuck no. I walked up the stairs, shivering cause I exactly remembered where my room was.
I opened my door, stepping into dark, cold room as I turned on the lights.
Wow. This room never changed. My bed was exactly how I left it. Messy and undid bed.
I smiled, plopping down on my purple bed. When I turned to the left, I saw a picture of my two best friends. I should say ex-best friends.
"Have fun in school!" He smiled as he made his way to kiss my forehead. I rudely moved away, missing his chance.
We both walked outside of our house with him locking the door.
"We'll take separate cars so we both won't be late. Yong over there will take you to school." He said pointing at the driver.
He waved goodbye to me, walking away from me.
He sigh as I saw the driver opened his door for him as he got in. Then they drove away.
I smiled. Perfect. I walked towards the driver, Yong as he opens the door for me. I quickly shut it, making him confused. "Not today. I'll walk to school." He nodded, understanding me. He got in his car and driving away.
This is way too easy. I walked towards the door, turning the knob. Shit. It won't open. Damnit do I have the key? I checked my pocket and my bag, but no sign of the key.
I ran around the house so I could climb up to my bedroom. I remember leaving it unlocked last night. There was a ladder stick to the house so it made it easier for me to climb.
I climbed up, holding the bar tightly.
"Hey Princess. I could see your panties." Someone familiar called out for me in the bottom. "Of course it would be purple."
My face turned red, as I stopped moving. "You loving the view, Suigetsu?"
"Suigetsu? Please, I sound nothing like him."
I quickly looked down, still holding tightly on the bar. "Sasuke?" I angrily jumped down, angry to see him here.
"What the hell are you doing here?" I cursed, walking towards him.
Hr smirked. "Just want to say hello to my new neighbor."
Neighbor? Fuck, I totally forgot that he lives right next door.
I rolled my eyes. "Its just temporarily. When my mom.. gets better, soon I'll leave this hell hole."
He crossed his arms over his chest. "So the rumors were true..."
"Look, just leave. Just seeing your face makes me wanna pull out all my hair off." I snapped at him.
"Then i'll stay a little bit longer. Bald does suit you." He said, fixing his tie on his uniform.
He glance at me as I avoided making eye contacts. He sigh, noticing my interest on him not being here."Go to school." He mumbled.
I sigh. Why does he even care if I got to school or not? "Now isn't the time. You wouldn't understand.." I said, as my mom flew across my mind. "Well, if you excuse me, I have a warm bed waiting for me." I said as I turned away from him, about to climb up to my bedroom.
"Your mom wouldn't like this." I heard him spoke.
"What mom?" I looked back at him, with eyes full of anger and sorrow. "Right now, I have absolutely no one." I chuckled, feeling ease. "This is what you wanted. Breaking off our friendship so I could be alone for entirety." I climbed up the ladder. "Thanks for leaving me, when I needed you the most. Fuck you, Sasuke."
"Mr. Uchiha, surprised to see you late. From the looks of it, you didn't get Ino to come back." Kakashi-sensei claimed, as he sigh taking a seat in his desk.
The raven-hair nodded, looking annoyed. "She's a wreck." He commented before sitting down in his seat.
Kakashi-sensei gritted his teeth, leaning in his seat. "Oh, well does anyone want to deliver Ino's homework to her house?"
Sasuke scanned the room. Not many people volunteer, but a fellow classmate raised his hand.
"I'll do it, Kakashi-sensei."
"Naruto?" He said, sounding suspicious. "Why?"
Naruto looked a little taken back as he chuckled. "Oi Kakashi-sensei, its not what you think." He grabbed the papers and smiled widely. "Ino.. she's an old friend of mine. I will hate to see her a.. 'wreck'..." He said, glancing at Sasuke. "As that bastard described her."
"Okay... I'll give you the address." He said, opening his drawer only to be stopped.
"No can do. I actually remembered where she lives." He noted as he turns to the class. "Don't worry you guys. Not only i'll give Ino her homework..." The blonde spiky blonde exclaimed as he narrowed his eyes to Sasuke. "I'll also drag her ass back to school!" He cheered as the class awed at him.
Naruto smiled, liking his enthusiasm. Take that, Sasuke. He stick his tongue out at him, looking childish.
Sasuke's eyes twitched, feeling humiliated. Oh, this means war, you dumbfuck.
There was a loud knock on my door. I groaned as I got out my textbook under my bed and flipped through random pages. "Dad go away. I'm doing my homework."
I heard him came in, not looking at him as I looked at the page.
"How can you do your homework if you didn't even get it yet?"
I looked up, surprised to see Naruto here. He was standing there, holding my homework.
He sigh, looking around my room. "Haven't been here for a while." He observed as he plopped down on my bed, laying next to me.
I raised my eyebrow, moving away from him. "Don't be so comfortable. Leave."
"Ouch." He smirked, fixing his perfect hair. "Go to school tomorrow." He demanded me.
Ugh, not him too. "Listen, th-..."
"Don't say anything." He stand up, interrupting what I was about to say next. "Give me an answer when you come with me." He said, as he grabbed my hands. He pulled me downstairs and next thing you know were outside.
I angrily pulled my hands away from his. "What the hell, Naruto!" I said, catching breath.
He laughed making me feel warm inside. Something about his laugh makes me feel a tiny bit better. "Sorry Ino-chan. I wanna take you somewhere."
I crossed my arms over my chest, testing him. "And what if I said no?"
He smirked, picking me up from the ground as I dangled on his shoulders as he started walking straight forward.
I fumed. "Naruto, your fucking crazy! Put me down you mofo!"
"So you could run back home? Uhm no thanks."
I give up fighting back. Man, he's strong.
"Okay were here." He mumbled as he finally put me down.
I stood up, noticing our surrounding. We were on a grassy hill with grave stones everywhere. "Why are we here? My mom's not dead."
"I know." His face dropped. "Come with me." He said, as I followed him.
This place gives me the creep. I don't even know why were here! He stopped making me bumped into him.
"Ino-chan, you always say you wanted to meet my dad..."
I nodded.
I saw him sat down on the floor. "Meet my dad, Minato." He muttered, pointing at the grave stone infront of him.
I raised an eyebrow. He can't be serious. "Naruto, stop joking around." I said, sitting down next to him. "This isn't making me feel better."
His face sorrowed, lowering his head. "I wish I was joking." Shit. He is serious. I stared at the the stone. It says his full name and the date he was born and the date he died. But how? When?
"My dad died when I was born.." He started out as if he read my thoughts. "I don't want to bore you so to make it short and simple he somewhat sacrifice himself to save me. Ever since, I been living with my mom." He said looking proud.
I didn't know what to say. I was to shocked at his words.
He looked straight into my eyes. I could see sincere and trust in his blue eyes. "Your lucky to have a dad with you. I didn't get to experience on having a dad. Ero-sensei was like a father to me so i'm lucky to have him in my life." He gripped on my shoulders tighly as if he's waking me up to reality. "Your mom is strong so I'll guarantee she'll get pass this. Your not alone in this situation." He vowed, putting a hand on my lap as comfort.
"You have me." He spoke with true kindness.
I smiled as tears were rolling down my cheeks.
He wiped them off smiling. "Go to school tomorrow."
I smiled, pulling him into a tight hug as he returned it. I have to admit, I miss him so much.
"Alright, whisker-face." I replied.
