YOUR POV

After what was happened on yesterday, I didn't went home but I went to Yamanaka's house instance. Why did I went to Yamanaka clan compounds? Well... Nobody will expecting for me will being in there. Inochi was kind enough to let me stay for a night, even though Ino looks confused as hell when I suddenly appeared in her house. But she didn't ask anything and let me slept in the same room as her, not on the bed alright. I slept on the floor next to her bed.

Actually, it was her idea for letting me sleeping in her room. Inochi didn't against it because he trust me enough and knew that I will not doing something unpleasant to his daughter. I swear she was looking at me like I was a prey of her when I was sleeping. She even make a moves on me but she fainted after knowing that I was awake. She is dangerous girl. I pray for your soul, Sai.. For having her as your wife. At the same time, I pity you what will happen to you.

When the sun come out from it little hiding place, not really, I get up early than Ino to take my usual morning shower then wear my new set of clothes. Long neck sleeveless black shirt, black Anbu pants and black ninja scandal. There's a bandages wrap up around my right hand, from shoulder to elbow. On both wrists, I put on a black wristband. Brush my black hairs neatly before put on a black mask. Hang the weapons and scroll pouchs on the back.

I walk out from the bathroom, not after I checked on Ino still sleeping or not. I place a letter next to her bed, I hope she didn't mistake it as a love letter because it's not that kind of letter. It's a letter to thanked them for letting me stay. I use body flicker to appear in front Hiruzen at the Hokage's tower. My right knee is on the floor as I look at him. "Phantom report on duty, Hokage-sama." I say with flat tones. "Get up my boy and welcome back.." Hiruzen smile at me.

I get up from my position. "How's your long rest, Phantom?" Without any emotion, I reply. "It's good, sir.." Hiruzen sigh and signal all Anbus to go out, leaving only me and him in this room before place a silent seal. "Tell me, boy.. Why did you come back before the last day of your rest which in 4 more days?" With the same tone as before, I say. "It's nothing. I just feel like it." He didn't look like accepting the reason. "Itsuke..." I sigh. "Fine.. I want a mission." I cross arms.

"You want a mission?" He give me disbelief look make my eyes twitching. "Alright!! Alright!! A few mission!!" He chuckle. Damn you, old man. "And why is that?" He ask. "I want to calm myself down and rethink everything about what happened in this couple of day." He nod and pull out a scroll. "I'll give you 3 missions. Your usual mission always involved Killing but the reports from your doctor, I say you still need a few day of rest. So, I'll give you the easy one."

I nod, understanding. "Escort the husband of daughter of Fire Daimyo back to Konoha from Suna, Fire Daimyo request a shinobi for help at his house and... Help Inuzuka training their ninja dogs." From under the mask, I give him black stares. "Are you serious giving me two house chores to do?" I ask. "No.. I give you a missions." He reply with a flat un-guilty tones. Grr.. It's a damn chores!! You old man!! "Yeah.. Missions." I say, sarcastically as I narrow my eyes.

As the long story short.. On the first mission, I've to training the Inuzuka ninja dog for 3 hours. It should be doing for whole day but surprise, they liking me very fast and obeying whatever I was told them to do. On the second mission, I went to Suna only for 2 hours and back to Konoha in 2 hours with the son in law of Fire Daimyo, Hiragi. On the third mission, which I went straight with Hiragi to Daimyo house. Madam Shijimi caught me in my special Anbu uniform.

How? Well... Tora who was in her death grip, struggling around and running straight into my arms, purring like a normal cat. Madam Shijimi was excited when she knew it was me and didn't letting me doing any works at all but I managed to finished those stupid house chores. Thanked to shadow clones. But something unexpected happens, the daughter of Madam Shijimi and also a wife of Hiragi wanted to maternity. Want to know something shocked? Well...

I was the one who welcomes the birth of the baby.. Or should I say, the babies. Why it was me? Uh-hu.. It was silly situation actually. Everything went chaotic and end up with both Madam Shijimi and Hiragi knocked up on the floor. Leaving a purring Tora on my arms with a pained groaning pregnant woman in front of me in this room. Why didn't I took her to hospital? Easy to explain for this one. Since I am so popular in doctors and nurses population in the hospital.

So, no.. It might bring me in the crazy misunderstanding. Example, I already married someone and this woman is my wife and she was pregnant of my child. Fuck no...The choice of bright her to hospital seriously out from the list. So, yeah.. And the experiences of handling a pregnant woman to giving births two babies are not fun at all. Especially when she passed out after everything finished. Leaving me with two bloody crying babies with bloody me.

After handling the babies, I means cleaning them. I let them sleep soundly at their room with Tora as their guard. Carried Madam Shijimi into her and her husband's room while Hiragi and her wife into another clean room. Then, I went to cleaning the bloodly room before went into my own old room that Madam Shijimi have prepared for me when I was 5. How many times she told me to call her Mother, I keep slipping calling her Madam Shijimi and she keep correcting me.

On the morning, I woke up and went away before anyone can caught me. Who wouldn't run when the Fire Daimyo who's hating your guts living in a same house of his? I don't know why but he just did.. But I left one shadow clone to prepare the breakfast and will disappear when the household wake up. Since I have a lot of time, I went to Inuzuka and helping them with their ninja dogs again. On afternoon, not thinking about anything,  I went to Konoha hot spring after lunchs.

"Aaa... This is nice.." I sunk into the warm water and close my eyes but a sound of door slide open make me open one eye. "Oh!! Itsuke!!" I see an orange blur and a duck..? Oh wait.. That's my little brother.. I sweatdrop. "Naruto.. Sasuke." I nod and look at my brother. "It's so not like you to come here.. So, what all of this about?" Sasuke look away and pout to himself while Naruto grin. "You will see." I raise eyebrows but wait. After a few minute, the door slide open again. 

"Thanks for waiting.. I'll just soak for a little while." An almost naked guy with gravity gray hairs step in with a towel around his waist. Konoha headband still covered his left eye and half of his face was covered with small white towel. "Kakashi?" I deadpan as the two boys fall into the water. "Yo, Itsuke. I don't you are here."  I sigh and nod. After the little accident, the two boy walk out from here, leaving Kakashi with me. He sunk into the water next to me and uncover his face.

"They are looking for you.." Kakashi fill the silence with some noise. "And I heard something from Fukawa.." I flinch. "I... I don't know what you are talking about..." I look away. I heard a sigh. "It's not good to not tell your friend, (M/N)..." I bit my lower lips. "They didn't need to know.." I say as I clench my hand. "Fine.. I will nit saying anything to them but they will be angry when they know about this." I turn my head and glare at him. "Then, I will not let them know at all."

Kakashi frown. "Why? They are your friends.. And family. They love and care about you.." The old memories hit me like a brick. "Friends? Family? Tch... Don't make me laugh." The so called friends on the school. "They only be friend with me because they want to use me to get themselves a girlfriend." The so called father that I killed. "Love? Hah!! I never feel any. As if anyone will give me!! Nobody like me!! I am nothing but a waste of air!! Why did not I just die already?!"

I feel a hand on my head, ruffling my hair. "I'm here with you... You can cry.. I will be with you for this.." As if a magic word. My eyes vision slowly blurry. Something wet pour down to my cheeks. "You must be have a hard time on your world." I tried to wiped the tears but it won't go away. "Damn.." Kakashi smirk. "Just let all go, you crybaby.." I slap his hand. "I will not be a crybaby.. I'm 29 already.." Kakashi chuckle before stand up. "I'll be going first. It's fun to play with them."

I shook my head. "You're evil, Kakashi.." I notices his eyes went to the snake tattoo. I look at him with deadpan face but with teary eyes. Totally not mixing well.. "My eyes up here.." He look to meet my eyes then his eyes went to the seal. "Seriously, Kakashi.. You need to stop looking at me like that.. And please go easy on them. They are still a child." He smile but I can sense an evil thoughts in it. "Oh... I will go easy on them... I will.." And he walk out. I sweatdrop. Poor those kids..
