Another day, another successful operation for the ANBU in Training including myself. We had been tasked with surveying an area where we had heard reports of an individual being assaulted in the past - it was in the seedy Red Lights. There was unfortunately no evidence nor individuals that were matching what the assaulted and her family were describing likely due to this investigation occurring weeks after the incident. However, we completed the task by doing our investigation and I was able to go home and relax my aging body until the next assignment was given to me.
However, home was only a place nowadays and not truly a home as I opened the door. As it had been for a long time now, the place was lifeless and cold - only showing any signs of life when I was home and even then, I had not changed it since the passing of my wife and kids. I remember when my wife and I first purchased this place when we were barely adults and working odd jobs around the village to make end's meet to afford it. I remember seeing my children running around when they were little playing with their toys, our family pets or each other. All the holidays that we spent together here or family gatherings with our extended families where laughter, memories and overall happy times came to fruition.
That seemed like a lifetime ago now - I was tired and not getting any younger. I miss the life that I had when I was younger - I really miss my wife and kids.
