Sasuke also came over, probably because he heard us, and looked down with us.

Somehow I felt kind of happy to see him no longer standing alone.

Naruto said dissatisfiedly: "Why are there so many photos with Kakashi-sensei, but not me!"

Shikamaru complained, "Who knows where you were at that time?"

"Ah, Shikamaru, you're being pinned to the ground and beaten by Ino and Sakura from behind, hahahahahaha!"

Shikamaru quickly tried to pull the photo away, but Naruto held him back and laughed at him.

I laughed and said, "This is the time for the borrowed object race! Shikamaru lied to Ino and Sakura that Sasuke also signed up, and they were so angry!"

Sasuke glanced at me.

Shikamaru said: "I didn't lie to them! It's just that people kept asking if Sasuke had signed up, and I thought it was troublesome so I didn't want to answer. Then, somehow the news spread that he was going to participate - it would be strange for him to participate in this project with his personality!"

I said, "Because everyone thinks Sasuke is like Shikamaru, and was forced by the teacher."

"No," Shikamaru said, "Everyone just wants to believe what they want to believe."

I was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but admire him: "Shikamaru always says something that feels amazing."

"What's so great about it?" Naruto said dissatisfiedly: "It's obviously some confusing words."

When we look at the noisy photos of the sports games one by one, it’s as if we are back in those happy times.

In a blink of an eye, there was only one photo left. As soon as Shikamaru took away the second to last photo, he was stunned.

The last photo is not a photo taken at the sports meet. It is a photo of me and Shikamaru sleeping in the corridor with me for the first time when I went to Shikamaru’s house.

Shikamaru and I were lying side by side facing each other, his chin resting on my forehead. We were covered with the same blanket, and the thin blanket showed the shape of my hand - it was resting on Shikamaru's waist.

I suddenly realized, "Ah, I didn't take my hand back that day."

Naruto was shocked: "When did this happen?!"

"A long time ago!" I said happily, "The first time I went to Shikamaru's house! It was the day before we met Kakashi-sensei in the small park the next day. He bought us strawberries and snacks, and took us to pay respect to Obito and Rin."

"So it was that day!" Naruto said, "Damn it, if I had known I would have gone to Shikamaru's house with you!"

Shikamaru and I looked at each other, remembering the day the two of us used the transformation jutsu to sneak into the movie theater at the Uchiha compound.

This is a secret between the two of us and no one can tell it.

Shikamaru helped me put away the photos, a little embarrassed: "Why did mom put this photo in here...!"

"That's great..." Naruto looked at the bag of photos enviously, "I also want to take a photo with Chaolu."

"Okay!" He clenched his fists and said, "From now on, I will save money to buy a camera!"

Shikamaru asked worriedly, "Can you learn how to operate it?"

Naruto was not convinced and said: "Stop looking down on me!"

Shikamaru smiled.

Naruto didn't know what he was thinking of, so he turned around and asked Sasuke: "Sasuke, do you know who Obito and Rin are?"

Sasuke: “?”

Naruto immediately said proudly: "Hehe, Obito's surname is Uchiha! You don't even know your own people, and you still say that I don't have common sense! You obviously don't know anything!"

Sasuke's eyes widened slightly, "...Uchiha?"

"Oh, that's right. Kakashi's teammates are Uchiha Obito and Nohara Rin." Naruto was very proud that he knew something that Sasuke didn't know. "You know, it's super magical - that Nohara Rin sister looks almost exactly like Chaolu!"

Sasuke said: "Uchiha Obito..."

Naruto said with admiration: "He died in the Third Ninja World War. He is a hero of Konoha!"

Sasuke suppressed his words, "...Anyway, you won't survive this."

"He protected everything he wanted to protect!" There was a negative tone in his voice. I didn't want my father to be considered useless, and I didn't want his death to be considered meaningless. "He fought hard for the village. Kakashi-sensei said that he would never give up any of his companions, so he also protected his companions until the last moment! I think - I think he's great! And very powerful!"

Sasuke said coldly: "He's not one of your people, it's weird that you're so excited."

I choked, "I'm excited for Konoha's hero!"

"My father is the captain of the Konoha Police Department. Isn't he a hero? What do you know about us Uchiha? You just happened to hear a name and you think you know it well!"

His sudden outburst of anger caught us all off guard.

I couldn't help but say, "You are the one! You always think about Uchiha, so you can't accept others. Obviously, if you want, you can have many friends, but you..."

Sasuke glared at me fiercely, "I don't have time to waste on insignificant people! I'm not like you, I have things I have to do! If you played less boring and childish love games, you wouldn't have to ask Kakashi to teach you how to defeat me!"

“Don’t stand there and think you’re great just because you can beat me!” As my anger rose, I felt my eyes dry and I had to blink more often, trying to moisten my eyeballs to relieve the foreign body sensation: “Just wait, after I recover from my injuries, I will definitely defeat you!”

"Really?" Sasuke sneered, "This year's fireworks display is coming soon, go watch the fireworks with your friends. I don't think you have time to come find me."

"You don't have any friends, so how do you know how important friends are!!"

"Just keep indulging yourself in this kind of frivolous stuff!"

Shikamaru said with a headache: "Stop arguing, stop arguing!"

The door opened once again, and Shikamaru's mother walked in with Urushi.

"What happened?" Shikamaru's mother looked at me, then looked at Sasuke who turned his face away, "Why did you quarrel? Weren't they fine just now?"

"He--! I...!" When I saw Urusi, I felt aggrieved, but I wanted to talk to him, but then I found that I didn't know why I was arguing with Sasuke.

Did I piss him off by saying Sasuke was too closed to himself?

But he was the one who first said that Obito had nothing to do with me, so I have no right to get excited!

Although what he said was not wrong...then was it wrong for me to say that!

Well, even if I was wrong, then he was not wrong!

Why did he have to say such hurtful words?

Besides, quarreling feels really bad!

When one person's sore spot is hit, he will think of attacking the other person's soft spot and making the other person feel pain as well. In the end, both of them will be covered in bruises.

This is different from the feeling I had when I was in the cold war with Shikamaru, but I hate it both times.
