[Hokage] My boyfriend is not old

In the evening, Quan woke up, Nami's mother fell asleep beside her, and Itachi sat on another bed, looking at the burning clouds outside the window, wondering what he was thinking.

Quan glanced at it casually, then closed his eyes and remained motionless.

Itachi sat for a while, then went out and called the doctor, "Izumi is awake."

Nami's mother was awakened by the sound of the doctor coming in, and when she heard Itachi say this, she immediately grabbed Izumi's hand, "Izumi, Izumi, are you awake? Open your eyes and see if mom is okay?"

How long has it been since I heard such a helpless voice from Nami's mother...

Quan hesitated for a while, then opened his eyes, but there was only emptiness and silence in those eyes.

Nami's mother's eyes turned red instantly, and she couldn't say a word while holding Quan's hand.

Itachi took a step forward and pulled Nami's mother away so that the doctor could examine Izumi, "Don't worry, Aunt Nami, I will have a good chat with Izumi."

"Quan...how could she have such eyes...how could she be like this..."

"Don't worry, auntie, trust me!"

The doctor checked on Quan, "There is nothing wrong with it, just take a good rest during this period, and you can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow."

Nami's mother finally let go of half of her hanging heart, opened the thermos and tested the temperature, and found that the fish porridge that Miqin made in the morning was already cold, so she touched the top of Quan's head, "Quan, mom will help you heat the porridge first." For a moment, let Itachi accompany you first, okay?"

Quan's eyes were closed again, and he lay motionless on the bed, as if he didn't respond to anything outside.

Nami's mother covered her mouth, swallowed the choked throat, nodded to Itachi, and walked out with the thermos.

Itachi stuffed Quan's hand back into the quilt, carefully tucked her quilt, and straightened her hair, "What happened? Can you tell me?"

"..."

"Remember what you asked me? Why is there death in this world? I used to think that as long as there was love and hope, death would not be a real death, and their beliefs and the things they desperately protected existed In the world, there are still people who miss them, and they will not leave. When Tianma and Xinzi died, I comforted myself in the same way, but that year when I practiced alone without teammates and performed tasks alone, I was deeply impressed. Understand the meaning of death - I really will never see them."

"..."

"When I killed someone for the first time, I was really scared. I was afraid that a tragedy would be caused because of me. Later, brother Zhishui told me that we are ninjas, and we don't have extra energy to care about insignificant people. People's hearts are only so Big, pretending to be too many irrelevant people will only make the weight of relatives and friends around us less important. That is not worth the loss. I think this kind of thinking is too selfish. How can we take the lives of others at will just because we don’t know each other? What? But Brother Zhishui said, we are ninjas, facing death at any time, people we don’t know, friends around us, relatives, and even ourselves, if we don’t comfort ourselves like this, we can’t survive at all.”

"..."

"Quan, in order to survive and to live with peace of mind, people will always find various reasons to comfort themselves. Students fail to get good grades not because they don't work hard enough, but because others are too perverted; businessmen don't get good grades. The benefit is not that you are incompetent, but that you have a conscience and can't bear to slaughter others; the crops that farmers planted are not harvested well, not because they didn't plant them well, but because God is angry; The unruly people are bold and reckless and lawless... There are too many such things, and people live in lies like this, because if they don't, they will live very tired."

"..."

"A person's life always has to bear something, the love and expectations of parents, the trust of friends, the admiration of subordinates, and the hatred of some people, and some people choose to bear the hatred of the dead. When people bear these You always have to discard something, if you choose to bear hatred, you have to discard your original self and live as another person, what is Quan carrying?"

Quan finally opened his eyes, "Why are you telling me these things?"

I haven't spoken or drank water for several days. The sound of the spring is like the sound made by sandpaper rubbing, rough and unpleasant.

Itachi helped Quan up, handed the water glass to the other party's mouth, watched Quan take a few sips before replying: "Because I don't know why you are sad and blame yourself, so I can only comfort you with the reasons I can think of."

Izumi lay down again after drinking the water, staring at the ceiling above his head, "Itachi, do you know? I sometimes become unresponsive."

Itachi helped Quan tuck the quilt up, "I know, Quan, are you... in a daze on the battlefield?"

"Yae is protecting me...I killed her..."

"Izumi chose to bear the hatred, and the hatred you thought came from Yae?"

Quan's eyes turned to Itachi, but his empty eyes couldn't find the focus, as if he was looking at something else through Itachi.

"How did Izumi know that Yae would hate you?"

"..."

"At that time, I was also unable to move, so Gastrodia Ma rushed forward. He was trying to protect me, but in the end he ended up decapitated."

Quan finally reacted, as if he had found someone with the same disease, eager to find the other's sense of approval, "Do you blame yourself? Do you regret it?"

"I was very angry, but I couldn't do anything other than this. I didn't know where to find that masked man, and I didn't know how to avenge him. At that time, I fell into a strange circle. Tianma died because of me. I feel that I am the sinner who killed him, and I have thought about killing myself to avenge him, but he bought my life with his own. If I die, does it mean that his death is worthless? ?So I can only make myself better and try my best to protect his family and this village. As long as I do more things, his life will be more meaningful."

Quan was silent for a while, "Itachi, I want to go to Yae's house and meet her parents."

"Go again tomorrow. Your current mental and physical conditions simply don't allow you to run that far. Besides, Yae's mother passed out today. I don't think her mental state is very good at this time. You all should take a rest."

Izumi lowered his eyelids, took his ninja tool bag from the side cabinet, and took out a pair of half-finger gloves to put on his hands. This was given to her by Yae before the mission.

"Quan, come and eat something, this is the fish porridge specially prepared for you by your Aunt Meiqin."

Nami's mother pushed open the door and came in, poured fish porridge into a small bowl, Itachi helped Izumi up, and stuffed her back with a pillow.

"Mom, I'm sorry to make you worry."

Nami's mother gently hugged Quan in her arms, "Silly boy, you are better than nothing, eat something quickly, you have been in a coma for several days."

Nestled in Nami's mother's arms, Quan began to lose consciousness again: If it wasn't for himself, Yae would be the one enjoying mother's embrace at this time...

Itachi bent his index finger and tapped Quan's head lightly, then scooped up another spoonful of porridge and brought it to Quan's mouth, "Don't think too much, open your mouth."

Early the next morning, Izumi walked out of Konoha Hospital with Nami's mother, "Mom, I want to visit Yae's house."

"Okay, mom will go with you."

"Mom, go back first, I want to go by myself."

Nami's mother hesitated for a moment, and nodded when she saw Itachi following Izumi all the time, "Okay, but Izumi will be back before lunch, you understand?"

Izumi nodded, then walked in front in silence.

Yae's family and Izumi's family are in the completely opposite direction, entering the land of the Uchiha clan, Izumi nodded to Nami's mother and then left, Itachi watched Izumi's figure walk away before bowing to Nami's mother, " Don't worry, Auntie Nami, I will always follow Izumi."

"That's hard work for you, Itachi."

Itachi nodded, and the figure disappeared instantly.

Izumi came to Yae's house, a very ordinary Japanese-style house, with some very ordinary wild flowers planted beside the corridor, which looks very beautiful.

I didn't look carefully when I came last time, but this time when I come again, things are different...

Quan knocked on the door, then stood by the door with his hands down, waiting quietly.

"Which one?"

The door was opened, and Yae's mother stood there with red eyes, and there were still tears on her eyelashes.

Izumi bent his knees and knelt straight down, "I'm sorry, Auntie, Yae did it because she saved me...Auntie, whether you want to hate me or kill me or whatever, I won't complain."

Yae's mother was stunned for a moment, and suddenly she held the door frame and burst out laughing. Yae's father heard the movement and came out, "What happened?"

Seeing Yae's mother laughing like crazy, Izumi knelt down helplessly, "Auntie...what's wrong with you, Auntie?"

"Uchiha... Izumi?"

"Yes, Auntie, you..."

Yae's mother raised her hand to stop Quan from continuing, "When Yae first went to school, she didn't have many friends, and she always disdain to make friends. I was very worried at that time, until one day, Yae came back and told me that she felt that there was no one in the class. The girl named Uchiha Izumi is very interesting, she can't help but want to get closer, I finally breathed a sigh of relief, the mood is so good that I started to play around, I told her that it is the same as mom and dad I like it, and I deliberately teased her and taught her a lot of strange things. I thought she would be able to tell the difference when she grew up, but since the child went to read a lot of novels in that area, I also read some secretly. There are many examples of self-sacrifice for lovers, but I still don’t care about it. I think Yae in our family can distinguish the difference between friends and lovers. I didn’t expect... Uchiha is really a family that will never let go...Uchiha Quan, you don't owe us anything, just go and don't come here again."

Watching the door close in front of his eyes, Quan opened his mouth, but his throat was so dry that he couldn't utter a word.

Ridiculous?But who can be blamed?

Quan stared blankly at the closed door, knelt there motionless, Itachi estimated the time, and felt that if Quan knelt down again, his knees would hurt, so he walked out, pulling Quan up, "Let's go."

The author has something to say: Yae's mother felt that her child was very smart and didn't need to say more, so she joked with her, but Yae's sister took it seriously and acted very seriously.

Although this reason is a bit absurd, I think Uchiha is like this, no matter right or wrong, if you look for it, you will never give up

PS: It feels like Brother Itachi has changed his words because of the girl!
