Chapter 1: I don't know
I don't know what happened yesterday or the other day or the past few weeks. I just don't get it. What's happening? I don't have any idea what's going on around me... all I know is that rumors about Sasuke having a crush on Sakura started going around, and I just heard it today. I mean, Sasuke doesn’t have a crush on Sakura... right? But I also heard that he's courting her right now... so does that mean, my ears are playing tricks on me, or I'm just too late to find out the latest news?
Yeah, you might have found out by yourself... Yes, I like Sakura, big surprise. Everyone knows that, cause if you don't know that up until now, you're either stupid, an idiot or just insensitive. I just don't know how to feel right now. I know I'm jealous, but why? Is it because Sakura is happier when she's with Sasuke than she'll ever be than with me or is it because Sasuke is paying more attention to Sakura than me? I... I just don't know! …Naruto scratched his head like as if shaking it will help him find out the answers that he's looking for.
"What's wrong Naruto? Spacing out during class..." Iruka stated looking at Naruto, anger spread out on his face but on the same time you can track worry and curiosity behind his slightly distorted face expression.
"It's nothing Iruka-sensei. I'm sorry." Naruto stood up and bowed in apology for not paying attention to what Iruka was discussing.
"Okay, just don't do it. You know you'll need the knowledge in your exams and when you're in missions. Naruto remain, I need to talk to you. Class dismissed, don't forget to answer all of your assignments. See you all tomorrow." Iruka sat down on his seat waiting for Naruto to come closer.
Iruka's class started to disperse, others have gone straight home, others went to the training grounds to watch matches or learn moves while others went to different places such as bookstores, restaurants, bathhouses etc. Naruto sat again thinking about what to tell Iruka. He can't possibly tell him the truth because he himself didn't know what the truth is. He thought it was because he didn't eat breakfast this morning that's why he's feeling down. But now, at least he knew it has something to do with Sasuke and Sakura. Though he didn't know how to tell it to his favorite teacher, he decided that he'll just go with the flow and tell him what's the first thing that comes in his mind. He stood up, and walked towards Iruka's table. Iruka motioned him to sit down on a chair beside him.
"What's wrong? Is anything bothering you?" Iruka asked as he checked the test papers on his table
"I just missed breakfast, that's all." Naruto looked down as he told Iruka a white lie; actually it's not a lie at all. It's true that he didn't eat breakfast. It's just that he didn't want to tell him the rest of it.
"What?! You didn't eat breakfast? Didn’t I tell you that breakfast is the most important meal of the day?!" Iruka stopped checking the papers and turned to Naruto but this time he's more likely talking to himself, "Am I really a failure as a guardian? Where did I go wrong? Why--" Naruto shook Iruka a little.
"Iruka-sensei calm down. It's not your fault. It's all mine. It's because I woke up late. I'm sorry." Naruto slumped on his seat and whispered "It won't happen again. Please don't worry about me. I'm going to be fine."
"Naruto... are you sure?" Iruka placed his hand on Naruto's shoulder "You know you can always tell me your problems. I'll always be here to listen."
Naruto smiled at him, which is obviously pretend since it doesn't reach his eyes. It looks like a grin with no soul but Iruka can do nothing but watch …Naruto's troubled and I can't do anything about it...
…This is for the best… Naruto thought it'll be better if no one knows about his "problem". There's no way he can share it to anybody because like he said, he himself didn't know what's wrong.
Naruto said goodbye to Iruka and went on his way to his apartment. Again he started arguing with himself about what exactly is wrong with him. "Am I jealous because Sakura likes Sasuke more?" he whispered to himself.
…No…
"Am I jea--" …What the hell was that?!...
…What the hell was what?!...
Naruto looked around as if expecting for someone to come out and tell him it was a joke …What was that? Did I just hear a different voice in my head?...
…Yes, you just did so stop freaking out, kid. It's not like you don't know I was here all along...
He took a deep breath and started walking again, pretending nothing happened. …Right. And why exactly did you show up just now...? You’ve been in there for almost 14 years….
…Because you never needed my help… up until now…
“What! Are you telling me that I became weak!?”
…Shut up. You’re calling everyone’s attention!...
…Oh... Naruto looked around to check his surroundings. Luckily, no one was there to notice his out burst in the first place...Lucky me… He sighs.
…Lucky huh… are you talking about how lucky you are to have me?...
Naruto made a disgusted face …Yuck. As if!...
…Yeah, yeah, run a little faster will you, I want to rest…
…Hey! I want to rest too…
Naruto ran faster to get to his apartment quicker. Maybe a deep, long sleep can help him clear his mind off of stupid things. He was kind of excited in sleeping, hoping it can erase his problems and doubts. He let his guard down that he didn’t notice a pair of eyes watching him as he entered the building.
The stranger looked at him and whispered a single but broad word…
“Soon.”
To be continued…
