10 A talk in the night and pieces of past

Konoha welcomes the silent night with a clear sky. Only voices one can hear are the voices of crickets and swishy tree branches in the dead of night. Until this harmony is broken by the rhythmic sound of a woman steps and her figure takes a shape inside the empty street illuminated under the light of the crescent moon. Out of the red-headed woman's knowledge, a silent pair of wings follow after her. At the end of the half-hour walking Yua Uzumaki reaches her destination, the stone faces' of Hokage's. She comes near the start of the cliff then she stops and turns back to see who causes stepping sounds behind her. A six years old red-haired boy faced with her and starts to talk...

Me: It is a beautiful night. Silent and calm, just like the way I love it. It would be too bad if I need to give a little girl her mother's death news, so can you stay away from the edge of Sandaime's hair and come near me?

Yua: H-how? Tell me how can you carry all this pain and still smile? I see the look on the eyes of civilians against you and what they say about you. Against all this treatment without the help of anyone, without a mother or a father... No family and no one to love or loved by how can you resist the pain of living? I, I can't take it anymore. I just want some peace... The peace only exists in Pure Lands.

Me: I understand your pain and suffering. The only reason you force yourself to survive is Karin, right? Now you know she is safe, you think she is no more need you so you can just suicide and obtain peace in the afterlife! What about her? Do you think about how much she will suffer?! You must know what kind of pain the loss of someone dear to you. Are you willing to let her in pain just to obtain peace for yourself! After all you have done for her, the only time you can be with her without a burden on your shoulders is now! And you want to destroy it?

Yua: What should I do then?! How can I resist the pain? How? I have no more goal or a dream... I have no reason to strengthen my will, my desire to live! Can you take away this pain from me?!

Me: No, I cannot take the pain away or weakened it. But there is something I can do.

Yua: What?

Me: I can give you a new dream, a goal to live, a reason to survive! Live to see your daughter's new life, her boyfriend, her marriage, your grandchild... Be there when she lost in pain and ease it unlike yours and be her pillar which she uses to stand up when she feels like falling! Be the mother her need!

Then the cries of a mother filled the silent night...

-In Naruto's bedroom-

That was a heavy conversation even for me. *sigh* It sure brings back some memories...

When I was born I have a twin brother with me and he is autism. And when I see how people act around him and me how they look at him... I start to hate humans. They are all the same but act like they are better, they are all selfish but act like they think others, lots of them not even try to think for themselves but act like they are unique, the world turn around them and they are always right! So I choose to say these at their faces and they think I am joking! Laugh it. Not all of them though. Some think about it, and I talk with them. These become people I called friends. Not the ''We will be best friend forever'' kind but '' It is nice to talk with'' type. While I don't have any problems with ''be part of society'' I still know as the different one. It is not my saying, my friends say me others call me like that. Luckily I have high self-confidence thanks to my brother my mother comes to school with us first eight years this means both elementary and middle school. In high school this mostly the same except my brother and my mother not there but I can't say I don't like it. It is a newfound freedom to me and I like it at that time.

Later I choose a medical faculty for college because I want to find a cure for my brother and create virtual reality. These two things are my biggest dream at times. But when I turn 20, in 2020 a pandemic outbreak happened. Five years after pandemic WW3 began and takes 3-4 years. Near the end of the war because of the bombardment our house crumble. At the time I am working as a front line doctor in war... After hearing the news about bombardment I take permission from the army to see my families' grave. This is when I am snapped. If I can find a way to read my families memories I can re-create them in virtual reality! Until then I dedicate my existence to this. 35-36 years later I success the creation of virtual reality and re-create my family. Night of that day I died from a heart attack because of an unhealthy lifestyle... But I died with a smile. Smile of a man who can succeed his life-long dreams and see his families smile to him one last time...
