”[color=7bcdc8]Well, I guess I best head out then wouldn't want to keep you out here. Sorry once again for interrupting your vacation training.[/color]” was the final words of the boy. He seemed as if he was ready to leave, but hesitated a bit, obviously out of politeness. “[color=plum]It was no trouble. It's kinda nice,[/color]” Haruka she said softly, her tone growing fond at the last sentence, “[color=plum]”It's been a while since I had a real conversation.[/color]” And it was the truth. Since leaving her home, the only conversations she had had was brief exchanges with vendors and when asking for directions. She could not remember the last time she had actually felt anything even close to a bond to someone, but she was quite sure it would be a while before she did again. With a small wave she turned her back and was about to leave, only to look back over her shoulder, “[color=plum]I'm Haruka, by the way,[/color]” she finally introduced, remembering that the boy had told her his name at the beginning of their conversation, “[color=Plum]Hagane Haruka of Konohagakure no Sato,[/color]” she elaborated, “[color=plum]If you see me on the streets, come say hi and if not, I'm out here every morning at the crack of dawn,[/color]” she added with a grin splitting her face and showing off her missing front tooth. Unlike her new buddy, she was not very polite and left without waiting for a reply. She was not running and he could still easily shout her out if he wanted, but she was not going to stand around any longer; she really was starving.
