I woke up in the morning excited.
"Finally! The day that I have been waiting for!" I yelled at the top of my lungs as I arose from my bed and ran out of my room and descending down the stairs.
I then looked at our big mirror in the living room, and saw my reflection, a pretty girl with brown hair and pink eyes, pretty rounded face, with a petite height.
(That's me! More prettier than yesterday!) I thought narcissistically.
"Hanako!!! Stop being so loud first thing in the morning! your father is still sleeping!!!" My mom yelled at me for being loud.
"Gomene oka-san!! I was just too excited" I apologetically said as I was coming into the dinner table.
Why am I so excited?...
Well because today is the entrance exam day!!
A day that will be the bridge to my dreams of becoming a ninja!
A day that I will meet kids like me that are also aspiring to become one.
A day that I may meet my.... SOULMATE!!!
My name is Sakuragi Hanako , I'm officially 6 years old and ready to enroll at the academy.
I have been training with my father for 3 years already to prepare my skills on becoming a student of the academy that will make me a ninja.
"Oh is the food ready?" My father asked my mom as he sleepily walks to the dinner table while holding his rumbling tummy.
My father's name is Sakuragi Itsuki and he's a wonderful Jonin of our village. My father is the most amazing ninja, because he has impressed our Hokage so many times because of his near-perfect completion of his missions.
He is pretty famous in this village, especially with women, and many men envy but also admire him for having a beautiful wife and a good job. And because of this reputation of his that he even has the potential to become the Hokage because of his good leadership skills!!!...but..
He has an unambitious personality, so he doesnt want to become the Hokage.. saying excuses such as 'Hanako I'm sorry but I can't and don't want to become the Hokage, I will no longer have time for my family If I were to become one....Im sorry my girl'.
(Gosh!! He is such a worry wart! he thinks that we can't function if he is not in this house!! He's barely in this house anyway!) i thought inwardly angrily sulking while I munch on my food piercing a gaze towards my dad while he's eating.
"Oh yes it's ready!! Honey!!" My mom told my heartily as she brings in the food from the kitchen.
My loving mother's name is Karuizawa Tsuhi, she is not a Shinobi but despite her not being a Shinobi and always being grumpy except for my dad, I love her because deep inside she cares for me, though, she rarely shows it on her face.
She is deeply and madly in love with my father, I don't know why though. My father may be handsome, but compared to other men in this village, especially Shinobi men, he is pretty average looking.
But I probably missed a story or two on their love story, being the reason I'm so confused in how it's been 8 years since they got married but my mother is still in love with him like a teenager crushes hard.
My dad saw my hard thinking expression, so he assumes and said, "Hanako... if we're in that subject again then I'm pretty sure you already know my answer..." My father told me off gently.
"Humph!!" I harrumphed at my father by looking at the other direction while I eat.
Seeing my unamused expression, my father changed the subject and asked, "Hanako... today is your entrance exams right?".
After hearing what my father just said, I then turned my face back to him and smiled.
"Yes!!! Will you come?!" I asked my father with stars in my eyes.
Seeing my excited expression, father couldn't help but be saddened. Also seeing his expression, I couldn't help but frown and again turn my away from him harrumphing, "Humph!!".
"I'm sorry Hanako.. i- I have a mission today, and the Hokage says it's imperative that I go to this mission..." my father told me with a sad puppy look.
" I- im really sorry Hanako..." My father apologized to me sincerely.
After hearing his shivering voice, my eyes went back to his face and saw his downed expression, so I couldn't help but jump to him across the table and hug him tightly.
"It's okay! it's okay! I get it.. But you owe me one dad! is that okay?" I forgave my dad.
"Thank you Hanako for forgiving me... And yes! I really owe you one! and don't worry you won't be alone, your mother's coming with you!" My father thanked and told me happily.
My mother's presence then appeared, she was sitting on the other side of the dinner table, watching all this drama unfold all this time.
"Humph! I thought that you guys have forgotten me, but I guess I still exist.." my mother sulked.
"Aww sorryy mom!!" I then went to her and hugged her, my dad also did the same.
After that, we three ate happily for the day.
But after that, father went on to explain that his mission will take a year to complete, and this time he was with a professional, Konoha's White Fang, Hatake Sakumo.
-----
My father already left for his mission and me and my mother are now within the academy.
I'm currently lined up with the kids to attend the entrance exam.
I'm very excited and overjoyed since this exam will be the turning point of my life, a bridge to my dream of becoming a ninja and be an amazing ninja just like my father.
But there is also one thing that overjoys me.
A boy the same age as me lining up beside me.
He's gorgeous, drop dead gorgeous! His platinum blonde hair coupled with his ocean blue eyes, just gives him a bright demeanor, well it's mostly because he is also smiling brightly.
His pale to tan complexion is literally a perfect match with his jaw-line that could kill. His nose line is perfectly aligned with his mid size pink lips. His face is Masculine, but it kinda leans more on the Feminine side. A perfect Masculine-Feminine facial structure ratio that will attract both men and women.
(He is nastily gorgeous!! But! he is not my type! but still, it wouldn't hurt to be acquainted with someone beautiful like me!) I thought inwardly.
"Hello-"
My greetings were interrupted by another person's greeting.
"He- heya!!"
A boy with red hair greets the pretty boy instead of me.
"O-oh sorry if I----"
The red head boy continued his greetings to the golden haired boy.
(Hmph whatever, i'll get to talk with him later anyways)
---
The whole entire exam already happened and i couldn't even get to talk to him once.
(ARRGHHHH i couldn't even get to introduce myself to him! he would've been a good connection!)
I thought angrily, frustrated at myself.
And what's more is that this pretty guy is actually a younger brother of a renowned genius of our village.
Adding to that, his skills are the topnotch of our batch, being proficient in both chakra control and taijutsu.
( Damn, he already unlocked his chakra, and what's more is he already knows how to use mystical palm! A complicated medical ninjutsu! It is my dream to be a shinobi, so knowing medical ninjutsus would be helpful... I should really talk to him first thing once the classes starts)
I thought determinedly.
(That Uchiha kid he pummeled, i pity him for fighting with a Namikaze first thing.... though i don't really want to pity him either because he was pretty cocky)
I contemplated as the principal's speech ensues.
I then cast a hidden side gaze at the blonde, he was currently talking with that red head.
As i was looking at the loud duo, a third person entered the scene, making everybody turn to look at the white eyed girl.
(That must be the first examinee of the Taijutsu test, the Hyuga girl who quickly knocked out her opponent earlier)
I ponder curiously as i look towards the domineering girl.
The three of them continued their musings, completely disregarding the principal's boring speech.
I think these three will be the trio of this year.
(I really can not believe that i was born on the same batch as these three, these three's shadows would always haunt me now.... wait why do i sound like an old woman, ARRGGHHH these prodigies are also good at annoying people even without them knowing my existence!)
I angrily mused.
(Though i would say that i didn't really did bad on this exam, i too have had bukijutsu and taijutsu training. And my chakra control isn't that bad, based on my leaf-sticking training)
I accounted my training as i thought.
---
The speech was finally over, and we were then instructed to go home and wait for a month or so for the recognition day.
(I wouldn't really expect myself to go up the stage, but it is not bad to dream about it, those trio would surely be going up there though.... HMPH such geniuses)
I ponder as i exited the academy gate.
The moment i stepped foot outside the academy, i noticed the trio on the left side of the road towards my left.
The red head was bidding his loud farewell at the blonde, while the Hyuga girl was creepily staring at the blonde who was also bidding his goodbyes at the red head.
I turned my head around to endure my jealousy of the three.
(Hmph! i will get to have friends at the start fo the classes anyways)
I thought undeterred.
" *Sighs*, i miss my dad, he should've came with me"
I sighed as i walk towards my house.
I continued walking tiredly, until i reached the doorstep.
