'I'm coming home...'
With an audible huff, he'd heave his bag over his back, his weaponry tucked aside within sleeves of his trenchcoat. Nodding he would manage himself to pick up some of those pork dumplings and pastries for his trip, tying them up in a bento box and he would feast upon is after his departure. Though now, he'd head to Minako's Home, which he'd been to as he walked her home the day he'd met her, little did he know that he would not see her much during this trip... sad really but he looked to change this with a note. Leaving it at her doorstep he would smile thinking about the day they had together. Something sitrred within him, and he would feel at peace with the note, enough to not have to give it to her personally.
'I hope you like it...', he'd think as his thoughts would race and tumble.</FONTFACE>
<FONTFACE fontface="palatino">Note To Minako said:To Mina:
I had a wonderful time with you when we met, and I'm sure you already know about my feelings. But if not, let them be clear. I have an air of affection for you. Your smile and eyes draw me something close to euphoria, but your spirit and mind made me want to know everything about you. With this letter I beckon you to find a way to venture to Konohagakure, or at least respond to my letter. Maybe I'll have a chance to show you around the village, or even escort you to Leaf if you'd like... but alas, I have been called back to Konoha. Urgent matters that were not explained, but I'm sure will be soon...
I'll miss you. Even if we only spent an afternoon with one another, I believe it was a highlight of my life that I will not forget. When you come, I'll show you my friends and maybe you can meet my mother as I've met your father. Who knows?
Sincerely,
Minamoto 'Sushi'.
Leaving the note with her father, he would smile and bow to the man before heading out. Looking at the light in the clear spring sky seemed to be gorgeous. It was the perfect weather for travel, and he would use it to continue researching more as he would make his way home. There was much to study, much to learn and this position gave him the means from which to learn and encourage growth from within himself and others that would be underneathe him. It inspired him to want to learn more... to be a mentor to someone. To learn and become more heavily intwined within his work.
So, the stage was set... he would smile and approach the gates as he'd await to be let out by the proper authorities.
"Oioi! Gate Guard! Could someone let me out?"
