Yeah he told me that too, even though the other day he was complaining that everyone left him alone in Konoha.
[Letting out a big sigh. Uchihas, why are they always so much trouble??]
Did anyone tell you about his brother and the stuff that happened and- [Oh yeah.] Itachi told me earlier not to tell anyone that he'd died. Us and Shino are the only ones that know, so you can't say anything.
Yeah, he told me about it. [ Her tone remains soft only audible enough for the PokeGear to pick it up. ] Naruto-kun, there were a lot of things that went on back home...
[ With no one else to talk to about them, she finds herself mentally retreating to confide in him. ]
Do you think time is really frozen there and that when we return, things will resume as normal? I find it hard to believe, but then again I find all of this difficult to believe.
What sort of things? Have I missed something....? Like I said, the last thing I remember was being with Bee, Kakashi-sensei and Bushybrow-sensei..
[The question ends up leading into his answer for hers.]
It has to be, right? I mean Sasuke doesn't know about anything that happened, and neither does Tenten. She was in the village, so we'd have known for sure if Tenten went missing, right?
Yeah, him too. You sure he doesn't remember anything about us?
[He supposes that is true. It's still frustrating though. After everything, just letting Sasuke wander off is not something he wants to do again, but what choice does he have?]
I'm sure. The last he remembers is leaving Suna all those years ago. He doesn't even know about the Akatsuki.
[Things are certainly different here. Sasuke who doesn't remember being gone for years were as Naruto has been chasing after him for so long. It's bound to be difficult for the older shinobi.]
As hard as it may be for you, some privacy may be good for him. There are still things Sasuke needs to think over and prepare himself to ask of me. Take some time to catch up with your family and other friends.
