Facing Xin had become a daunting task for Fugaku-he never knew what to say.
"The same thing goes for the past. I don't want to dwell on it. Out of respect for my mother, I'm willing to let it go. But I'd appreciate it if you'd stop trying to interfere in my life."
"Why?" Fugaku asked, his tone becoming more urgent. "Coming back to the Uchiha would only benefit you. No one knows the secrets of the Sharingan better than our clan. Don't you want to learn more about it-about the Uchiha's forbidden techniques...?"
"Not really," Xin cut him off, shaking his head without hesitation.
He genuinely had no interest in the Uchiha clan's so-called forbidden techniques. If he ever did get curious, there were plenty of ways to get his hands on them without getting tangled up with the Uchiha.
As for learning more about the Sharingan...
If I were to show you my Mangekyō Sharingan right now, it'd blow your mind.
"Do you really hold such a grudge against the Uchiha?" Fugaku asked, sounding defeated. As the soon-to-be clan head, he felt completely useless in that moment.
"It's not that," Xin replied.
"The Uchiha clan has enough problems already. I don't need to get involved. The only people I've ever had issues with are a few of the old guard."
"Anyway, that's all I've got to say,"
Xin finished, standing up and preparing to leave. He wasn't interested in continuing the conversation. Whether Fugaku took offense or not didn't matter to him. The Uchiha clan was a sinking ship, and he had no intention of going down with it.
"Is it over?" Teuchi asked, walking back in after stepping outside for a bit of fresh air. He smiled as he approached Xin.
"Yeah, it's over," Xin replied with a grin, stretching as he got ready to head home. "Oh, and big bro, I left the money on the table. Catch you later."
"I'm not your big bro!!" Teuchi shouted after him.
Teuchi's smile froze on his face, veins popping out on his forehead as he yelled at Xin's retreating back.
How is it my fault I look older than I am?
Rubbing his face, Teuchi began questioning his life choices.
Running into Uchiha Fugaku had been a minor interruption, but Xin hummed a tune from his past life as he made his way back home.
The next morning, Xin was still snoozing when someone barged in, yanking the covers.
"Xin, get up! I need to talk to you!"
Kushina tugged at the blanket with enough force to nearly pull Xin out of bed.
"It's only seven in the morning... and I'm not wearing anything," Xin groaned, thoroughly awake now.
"Really?" Kushina asked, peeking curiously, while Xin twitched slightly.
Since when did Kushina get this bold, pulling my blanket like that?
Even though she was just teasing and hadn't actually looked, her transformation from her former, more timid self was shocking.
So, you want to peek, huh?
Fine, let me give you something to see!
With a sharp tug, Xin threw the blanket off himself. Kushina's mischievous grin froze on her face.
