Sunlight shone through the leaves on the tranquil lake. The lake water emitted a mesmerizing glow, as if it was an independent world that attracted others to break it and draw a line in this world that seemed to have stopped time.
Faint singing drifting, drifting
"I haven't seen you for a long time
Just calculate the distance that longing can reach
I also believe that the distance can't change
Our tacit understanding
But I still can't wipe away the feeling of missing you
Your greeting is my warm reason
Standing by your side, I can stay for a moment
Imagining the future is romantic, but always brave
Are my expectations a burden to you?
There are thousands of ways to respond to me
But your heart is like a gust of wind
I miss you, but I don't listen to you, so I ran out myself.
Willfully chasing after your shadow
Maybe if I let go of the dream, it will never feel different
It's just that parting doesn't bear to say goodbye
I miss you, but I don't listen to you, so I ran out myself.
Distance is useless, longing is very heavy
......”
Uchiha Weasel slowly walked through the leaves, enjoying the rare leisure and tranquility. His body emitted a relaxed aura as he slowly walked, but he heard a familiar voice singing a sad song, gently echoing.
Uchiha Weitake slowly walked to the place where the song came from. He saw a blond child sitting by the lake with his feet soaked in the water. From time to time, he would stir up waves of water. He was singing with his face facing the sun. It was impossible to tell what expression he had.
Uchiha Weitake called out softly, his voice breaking the silence.
"Who is it?" Naruto was startled by this sudden voice. He looked at the familiar figure in front of him and gradually remembered.
"You're the one who tricked me into calling you Brother Weasel. You scared me, why are you here?"”
"What do you mean by lying to you? I'm older than you, so you just have to call me ferret brother.”Weasel joked in a good mood.
"Yes, Brother Ferret, alright? Why are you here?”Naruto replied helplessly.
"I heard someone singing on my way home.”"Really? I was singing just now. It was a very nice song, although I didn't sing very well.”"No, it's very nice, but it's a little sad. Who taught you that?”"Really? No one taught me. I don't know why, but I feel like someone used to sing it often in the past.”"Is that so? Why are you still here so late? What if you encounter danger?”"It's okay. I'll be alone when I go home anyway. This is my secret base.”"You're a chuunin, aren't you? Can you tell me something interesting?"

" Hey, did you hear? Uchiha Weasel took half the time to complete this mission compared to the original plan."
"So what? He's a genius, a genius!"
"As expected of the pride of the Uchiha clan."
"However, don't you think he seems to be... Was he too silent…I don't like it."
"Tsk, you're just jealous of him. He's cool. If it were you... Who knows what they would say…He's a genius. We're not competing with him. Let's just be mediocre."
......
For a moment, the messy discussion was mixed with envy, jealousy, and other emotions. Accompanied by laughter that contained all kinds of meanings, it intermittently reached the ears of Weasel, who had not gone far. Weasel's footsteps stopped and he sped up to leave. However, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes. Geniuses and the pride of the family were just heavy shackles that could not be broken. He looked up at the blue sky and his mood slowly improved.
As usual, Weitake did not return home after the weekend mission ended. He carried the dessert he had just bought and hurried towards the lakeside.
"Naruto!"
