Satomi couldn't really blame him for not wanting to train at the Uchiha compound. Her mother had been a member of the clan and she'd lived with them for years and even she got a weird feeling from many of them. There were many who were nice and mostly harmless, but there were those she didn't trust. And the feeling was mutual. As far as she could tell. Her father had lost himself and nearly killed her and her mother, and her mother had been so consumed with grief that she took her own life. And Satomi, well, no one knew if or when she might suffer the same fate as her father. Some of them saw her as cursed and most of them judged her based on the actions of her parents. How could she trust them if they were leary of her? She couldn't say if this was the reason she felt weird about them, or if it was something else. "The forest is fine." She replied, brushing her thoughts aside.<br/><br/>"Yeah, I should probably get back soon, too." She agreed before listening to his response to the time he wanted to meet. She smiled lightly, having guessed he wouldn't be like her and want to train before the sun came up. He didn't seem the type to love mornings. "Okay. How about nine?" She offered a time, placing enough money on the counter to cover their bill as she waited for his response. Once they'd made their decision she stood and followed him out of the ramen stand. "Yeah, okay. I'll see you tomorrow, then." She replied softly, smiling and waving. "Good night!" Before walking off towards the Uchiha compound.<br/><br/>She got an odd feeling like she was being watched, but after subtly surveying her surroundings and finding nothing too unusual, she decided not to worry about it. It only took her a few minutes to reach the compound, despite her casual pace. Upon arriving she went straight to her room, not bothering to check if anyone else was was home or awake. Instead she went to her room and changed into pajamas before slipping into bed and falling asleep fairly quickly.<br/><br/>----<br/><br/>The next morning Satomi woke up early as usual and laid in her bed for a few minutes before getting up and going into the kitchen and getting herself a light breakfast. She ate the food before heading back into her room. It was far too early to head to the forest, so she decided to practice her music in the mean time. She practiced with her violin for a while before switching to her flute, and eventually switching again until enough time had passed that she could get ready to head to the forest to meet Haru.<br/><br/>She put her instruments away and changed out of her pajamas and into some light blue shorts, a loose blue shirt with the Uchiha symbol on the back, and her ninja shoes. Once she was dressed she gathered her ninja tools, putting them into their pouches and strapping them in place before she headed out without a word to anyone. The house was quiet and she wasn't sure that anyone was home anyway, so why bother?<br/><br/>When she arrived at the designated location Haru was no where to be found. That was to be expected, given that she was early and he, well, didn't seem to be a fan of mornings. So, she found a low-hanging branch in a nearby tree and hopped up to it, leaning her back against the trunk of the tree and making herself comfortable. While she waited she went through the plan for the training in her head, from what they'd be doing to how she might be able to help him to succeed where the instructors could not. It may not be an easy task for either of them, but she was confident that they would find a way. He would get better, and he would pass the test. She believed in him.<br/><br/>Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk
