Chapter 5
Today was of course a boring day. As always. I needed to stay an hour longer, because of the problems. And Seventh A.K.A my father, who I can't call dad at the Hokage Office, also talked to me. Headache. I just wonder why I have headaches so many times. And if you have a headache, you need to stay at home. But I have fake headaches. I want them to be real, so that I can stay at home and play my game for the entire day. That would be great! And I'm ranting about headaches again. Sigh... "What can we do next, Shikadai?," I asked to Shikadai, who was sitting next to me. "I don't know, Boruto. I want to play shogi, but I'm sure you don't get how to play it," Shikadai said. "What is that "shogi"?," I asked. "It's Japanese chess... I knew you wouldn't even know what shogi is. What a drag... I play it a lot with my father," Shikadai said. "Nara Shikamaru... huh?," I asked. Shikadai nodded. "He is the assistant of your father". "Dumb Hokages... you only spill your time with it. My father always comes late in the evening, what does he think? He doesn't care for me and Hima very often and what else?! Who does want a father like Seventh?! I would rather have no parents than parents like mine!," I yelled and the few people in the shop looked at our table. "Sorry," I said. Oops... I shouldn't show my anger in a place like that. "Boruto, chill your butt. Why are you so angry? Your father tries his best to protect the village. Just like all the previous Hokage's," Shikadai said. "I'm just angry because... just because...," I said. Tears of anger were rolling down my face. "Are you okay?," Shikadai asked. "I don't know. I'm just so angry," I said and my hands were shaking. I usually don't cry, but this was a case where I could actually cry. I only see Seventh late in the evening. Everytime I wake up, he's already gone. I can never say good morning to him in person. He always sends digital mails to me. And the evening thing. Shikadai placed his hand on mine. "Chill". "Thank you, Shikadai. That's why you're my best friend," I said and I smiled. Shikadai smiled too. "I'll be here," he said. "I'll be over here for you". I nodded. "Thank you again," I said and I blushed. Some people think I really look like my parents, but I don't agree with them. I mean, first I'm just so shy as my mother, and 0.1 seconds later, I'm just so shocked as my father. Normally I don't show my feelings to people, because I don't want to. But, real heroes show their feelings and that means I need to do that too, since I want to become a hero. Not Hokage. They are dumb.
After we ate, we stayed in the shop for a while, because we ate too much. And we also spilled too much money. We couldn't even talk, so that's why it was quiet. Not really... we listened to the people who were in the shop. I heard some nice conversations, and not so nice onces. But, at least, they quit quickly, because they saw that we were listening. Oops. Good job, Boruto and Shikadai. I looked at Shikadai and I saw he was playing his game. I poked his cheek. "Seriously?," he asked. "Yes, you're cute," I said and laughed. "Your laugh is weird, can you please stop?," Shikadai asked. I blushed and smiled. I never heard Shikadai laughing, so I don't know if his laugh is weird or normal. "You're going to get your revenge later," I said. "Hey, Shikadai, is Inojin online?". "Yeah," Shikadai answered and I turned on my game.
Before we knew, it was already evening. We both didn't notice it. The shop was almost closing, so we needed to head out. And all the things that we did was just sitting at the entrance, since the Wi-Fi there still works, even when the shop is still closed. My parents mostly don't care how late I come home, but it needs to be before midnight. And it was around 8 PM now. So we still had around 4 hours left to be outside.
I went to my room without greeting someone and locked the door. They are just stupid Hokage's! What happens in this village? Absolutely nothing! You only spill your time. I still thought about the moment in the shop. I think I worry too much, just as my mother. And that means I'm going to die, according to Shikadai's theory. And that was absolutely a joke. Oh, I forgot to tell you something. Something else happened today. We had a new classmate named Mitsuki. He's kinda cool. I mean, he's SO COOL! And besides, he's a transfer student from the Hidden Sound Village. What he can do is so great! His jutsu's are totally the best! But the only thing that creeps me out is that he sits next to you, out of NOWHERE. Let me explain better. I was with Shikadai and we were talking about the transfer student. Just when I turned my head, he sat next to me LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. That is creepy and cool at the same time. I'm going to talk to him tomorrow, just to see what his likes and dislikes are. And of course his hobbies and that. Sometimes new classmates are so great... do you agree?
