Naruto POV:
I'm so lonely, do you know why I'm so lonely? Because I no longer have a father and mother, I'm alone now, and my life is just an illusion where there's no one but me sitting in an empty room with no one. But I still have a goal in life, which is to find the killer of my father and mother, who were killed by a man right in front of my eyes, and that's what has enabled me to survive until now. Light and darkness are the same to me. Here on this road, I sit alone meditating as I bend my knees and hide my head between my knees. I just thought, is there someone who will feed me or just talk to me? Suddenly, I heard footsteps in my ear, slowly but surely the sound got closer and closer, and I felt the touch of a hand, someone's touch on my shoulder. I dared to look up, because I wanted to see the face of the person who had just touched me. I saw a middle-aged man, with pinkish-brown hair, about to give me a box of food. The middle-aged man said to me as he walked away from me: "Eat."
I immediately opened the brown box and ate it enthusiastically. The street was quiet and no one passed by except the person who had just given me food. The time was 23:00. After finishing eating, I lay down and slowly closed my eyes. I am now 12 years old. My name is Uzumaki Naruto. Oyasumi...
4 years later...
I am now 16 years old, wasting my time on the streets, spending my life on the streets, the streets are where I live, looking for food by begging/collecting precious garbage to sell, and that is only enough for my daily nutritional needs. There was an incident that made me turn into a person who is useful to others. I encountered this incident at 23:00
Normal point of view:
"Pickpocket!" The middle-aged man with pinkish-brown hair shouted, looking anxious. From his clothes, he had just finished work and was about to go home.
The thief was running very fast, his clothes and pants were black, his shoes were black, and he was wearing a hood like thieves and criminals in general.
That night, no one came to help the middle-aged man, because the streets were quiet and no one heard his screams.
"The thief?" I thought as I looked in the direction the thief was walking. The thief ran towards Naruto, Naruto sat down and couldn't do anything. However, after Naruto saw the person who was the victim of the robbery, he immediately remembered the incident that happened 4 years ago. He imagined a man with the same features smiling and offering him food. Naruto then stood up and quickly ran after the thief.
"Unlucky!" Naruto shouted who looked tired because he hadn't had his dinner yet.
"Hey!" The middle-aged man shouted as he waved his hand, thinking that Naruto didn't need to bother chasing the pickpocket who had stolen his bag.
"I'll repay you, good fellow!" He said to himself as he continued to run and run after the pickpocket. He did his best to repay the man's kindness, even though all he had given him were packages of food and drink, but Naruto didn't look at what he was given but when he gave it.
"I'll repay the favor for the past four years!" He shouted loudly. The pickpocket started chasing him. After getting too close, Naruto kicked his head so hard that the pickpocket was unconscious because his head hit the sidewalk hard.
Then Naruto took the bag to give it to its owner.
"This is Uncle, the bag." Naruto said with a smile, a smile that others rarely saw or you could say that this was the first time Naruto smiled.
"Oh, thank you very much, what's your name? I think we've met before? Would you mind stopping by my house for dinner?"
"My name is Uzumaki Naruto, but why? You're giving me things like this, I don't know who you are, and other things that are hard to explain."
The man just smiled. "Naruto-kun huh? Anyway, come with me."
The man walked away from Naruto and Naruto followed him and walked behind him.
"I'm glad I met this man." He smiled inwardly.
In a good man's house.
The big gate was already in front of Naruto and the man, one of the security guards of the house, opened the gate while bowing his head.
"What kind of house is this?" Naruto said in his mind and looked very surprised and amazed by the house in front of him.
"Come in." The blond haired man said as he walked towards the door of his house.
The layout of the building and the view of the building through Naruto's eyes.
This house is quite like a palace, with a length and width of 200 meters and 75 meters respectively, and the yard is very large and decorated with plants, trees and a very attractive fountain. The gate is very majestic, and the walls are towering around the house which are about 10 meters high. And again a two-story house, he was really a very wealthy person.
Status Status Status
The hand of the man who owned the mansion-like house was seen knocking on the door, the door he knocked on was white and 12 meters high, with a very elegant interior decoration.
"This is a door? What is a door?" Naruto muttered, looking like he couldn't believe the magnificent door in front of him. "Ino?" He thought when he accidentally saw a sign that said Ayute Family House.
Then one of the servants opened the door and lowered his head like most servants. The maid had black hair and wore a very cute maid outfit, but Naruto didn't really care about her.
"You better take a shower first Naruto-kun, the servant can take Naruto-kun to the bathroom and don't forget to prepare clothes for him, okay?" The kind man said with a smile.
"Thank you, sir." Naruto answered briefly.
"Don't call me that, you saved my bag, just call me Katsu-san hehe." Katsu-san said as he walked away from Naruto and the servant.
Naruto remained calm and didn't say anything, the maid who was standing next to him led him to the bathroom.
"Please follow me, sir." The maid said, showing him the direction.
A few moments later...
Naruto looked clean, neat and fragrant, he was also wearing the clothes the servant had prepared, Naruto's clothes were a rectangular black shirt with modern pants, not forgetting his belt.
Naruto then walked towards the dining room, where Katsu-san was waiting and sat on one of the chairs at the dining table, there were 8 chairs, 3 on each side and at each end there was one chair. Katsu-san was already sitting on the chair at the end.
"Sit down." Katsu-san said as he invited Naruto to sit on the other end of the table by gesturing with his right hand.
Naruto moved the chair and sat comfortably, the table in front of him was full of food and it looked delicious. "Isn't this a bit much." Naruto thought as he looked at the large amount of food clearly displayed on his dining table.
"Eat, Naruto-kun." Katsu-san said with a smile, Naruto then began to raise his hand and eat the food served.
"You're a good man, Katsu-san, if you need my help I'll do anything for you." Naruto said who was about to eat the food he took with the spoon and plate.
Katsu-san smiled, "Ano Naruto-kun, sorry if I'm rude, but where are your parents?" Katsu-san asked curiously.
Naruto was silent and did not answer the question Katsu-san asked him. "I see you don't want to answer that, do you?" Katsu-san said briefly, then continued, "If you want, you can work here and live here as my daughter's bodyguard." Said Katsu-san smiling.
"Your daughter?" Naruto said briefly.
"Yes." Katsu-san replied while drinking a cup of the shake that was not far from his reach.
Naruto seemed to be thinking about something, while drinking the drink in the cup he was holding, after finishing drinking the drink, he returned the cup to the dining table. He prepared to answer the request made by Katsu-san.
"Yes, with pleasure Katsu-san." He answered with a smile, although the smile was not clear because he was not used to smiling.
I'm happy, I accepted it Naruto-kun. Now go sleep in the room my servant prepared, you are officially part of this house.
"Thank you, Katsu-san!" Naruto said as he lowered his head. Nobori smiled and asked Naruto to adjust his head.
They walked out of the dining table at the same time...
Naruto with a thought:
This room is very comfortable, the mattress I'm sleeping on is also very comfortable, and not only that, there is also air conditioning here which makes this room cool. I thought about the time I used to sleep on the street, the cold air that chilled my bones, the sidewalk, and the makeshift carpet I used to sleep on. I lived like this for about 5 years, although I also learned little by little using the books scattered in the trash can. You know it's been a tough 5 years for me.
You? Why am I shedding tears?
Is this happiness? Or
I'm really sad.
Father, mother, I am...
Naruto slowly closed his eyes and was transported to the land of dreams, making him sleep peacefully without having to feel cold and scared.
The next day...
The clock struck seven in the morning, Naruto woke up from his sleep and was about to go to the bathroom that was not far from his room. "This is my first day working as a bodyguard, I just thought about protecting Mr. Nobori's daughter well." Naruto who was still dreaming thought as he looked in the mirror and brushed his teeth. Naruto didn't even notice the person standing next to him who was brushing his teeth, the girl had blonde hair falling on her shoulders, her eyes were still closed dimly, she was still brushing her teeth until she slowly opened her eyes while washing her face.
As Naruto did the same after he finished brushing his teeth, Naruto also washed his face and looked at the mirror that reflected his body, he saw the girl who was standing next to him. Ino also looked at the mirror and what she saw in the mirror was a man with normal yellow hair and 6 lines on his face.
Then they looked at each other, without saying anything and after a while of staring...
"Kaaa!" Ino screamed loud enough to be heard outside the house.
Naruto was shocked and tried to talk to Ino. "I now work in this house, my name is Uzumaki Naruto." He said as he tried to shake Ino's hand.
"Father, father!" Ino screamed in frustration as she didn't recognize the stranger next to her. After a while...
"That's the story, Ino." Her father, Ichiro-san, said as he tried to explain what really happened.
"I'm sorry, Hime-sama." Naruto said as he lowered his face next to Ino who was enjoying her breakfast.
"So you're my new bodyguard, huh? I hope you're not like my previous bodyguards and you won't disappoint me."
"Wakarimata." Naruto replied politely and without the slightest expression.
And he's the same age as me? He's almost as tall as me, can he take good care of me? / Instead I ran away like the previous guards because of my very annoying attitude, we will see later, Ino thought with a smile while eating breakfast.
Konoha High School... is where Ino goes to school, she is now 16 years old and is in the second year of high school, the place is not far from her house, only 10 minutes by train. The distance from home to the first station is about 2 km and it takes 15 minutes to walk.
Ino was getting ready to go to school, as usual she wanted to walk because her father had some things to do so he couldn't be taken and instead Naruto took her on foot as well.
"Itekimasu!"
They also walked on the sidewalk on the side of the main road. Ino walked in front of her and Naruto walked behind her.
"Don't follow me!" Ino shouted in annoyance as Naruto's footsteps were heard in her ears which made her annoyed and angry. Naruto fell silent and stopped walking. Ino then continued walking again, and once again the sound of Naruto's footsteps disturbed her for the second time.
"I told you not to follow me!" Ino shouted, gradually being swept away by the emotional atmosphere.
Naruto was silent this time, nodding his head and walking away, leaving Ino alone. "As per your orders, Hime-sama." He thought.
After arriving at Konoha High School, a school with a larger area than his home and occupied only by children from the cluster class. Ino came as usual, walking casually and catching the attention of men and women who saw her.
Straight blond hair, tight white skin, charming slim body, very intelligent, ranked second in the last semester's exams, beloved by many upperclassmen. Not only that, she is the school's icon because she is famous for her beauty.
"Beautiful, Ino-sama!"
"How beautiful!"
"Early in the morning I saw Ino, the icon of our school, it was like luck."
The students' words accompanied his steps towards the school entrance, he smiled in response to the compliments of the students who praised him.
"Kawaii!" shouted many boys who saw her very sweet smile, the boys fainted immediately.
Then the blonde-haired girl entered the school, opened her locker, and when she opened the locker, a waterfall of letters suddenly came out of the locker in a torrent. "A lot." He muttered as he put his valuables in the locker (a watch and many shiny jewelry).
The bell rang announcing the start of the first period, Ino seemed excited to participate in the lesson, she sat next to the man she loves, Sasuke. Sasuke is a very handsome student with an IQ of 190, he got first place in the last semester exam, not only that, he is hardworking and athletic, and he grew up and lives well in his large Uchiha family.
However, Ino's love for Sasuke is just admiration because he can beat her in a battle of wits, and she also knows about Sasuke because he was her childhood friend. You could say that Ino's feelings for Sasuke are just love, not love.
The bell rang loudly and the break began. Ino sat quietly on her chair and Sasuke stood up. Ino left. This cute black-haired boy made everyone who saw him surprised and amazed by him.
A few moments later, a girl with pink hair entered in an emo style so that only one eye was visible. The girl was sexy and beautiful. "Ino!" He shouted from the door of the classroom.
"What's up, Sakura?" Ino answered in a clear voice. "There's a student council meeting later, don't forget, come inside?" Sakura shouted loudly.
"Hey!" Ino replied waving her hand. "I'm going to be a little late getting home, dad." He thought as she stood up to look for food in the cafeteria.
"It's finally over." Ino thought as she left the school.
Ino's POV:
The day went by as usual, I live this very tiring day every day, as a member of the student council committee, I always get home late. The journey back home made me even more exhausted, it was late, the sun was setting, and night was falling. The lights along the street started to turn on, and I walked alone with a very prominent bag and my jewelry. I started to feel uneasy because I felt like someone was watching me. This unpleasant feeling became a reality because I saw 3 adults who looked like they were going to attack me, I turned around and ran quickly.
Normal Point of View:
"You won't be able to escape our pursuit, miss?" One of the bandits said.
Ino ran without stopping and turned in the direction she thought was safe, but reality said otherwise, as she found herself in a quiet dead-end alley. "Help me, guys." It seemed like her mind had panicked and she was about to shed tears. The three bandits started to surround her. "She's so beautiful." One of the bandits who was about to approach her said, touching Ino's beautiful face.
Ino closed her eyes in fear hoping someone would help her, and an unexpected incident happened, a man in a white robe jumped down from the top of the building and hit the thief who was about to touch Ino's face.
"Kisama!" His subordinates shouted, unable to believe that the leader had been defeated so easily. Two punches were fired to each of their faces, and the thief leader immediately ran away, followed by his men who also ran away from the man who defeated him.
"Who are you?" Ino said who had watched the fight earlier. The man turned to Ino as he said something.
"My priority and main duty is to protect you, even if you insist on not wanting to protect me, I will still protect you because that is the duty and responsibility that lies on my shoulders, Yuki-sama."
Naruto?" Ino said with an expression of disbelief.
"Daijubu huh? Yuki-sama." Naruto said as he extended his hand, as Ino seemed to sit weak and helpless due to fear.
"Hmph! "I don't think I can thank you enough!" Ino said as she stood up on her own and walked away from Naruto, ignoring his outstretched hand.
.
She turned to the man who was still standing, alert, her hair fluttering gently in the wind. "Why did you have to interfere? I could have... I could have saved myself!" Her voice was chaotic, but she felt defeat creeping into her words.
