22 Tsunades apprentice (1/2)

Heartbroken Izumi returned home as she saw a middle-aged woman in the kitchen cooking food. This woman was clearly her mother, Hazuki Uchiha.

Turning her head to see her child with tears in falling from her eyes, she immediately rushed to her daughter and held her with both arms giving her a hug.

”Izumi, what's wrong?”

Letting her mother hug her, Izumi just continued to cry without responding to her mother.

”Izumi, it's okay tell me what happened.”

Urged by her mother to speak Izumi finally wiped her tears and explained the recent events of what happened between her and Ren.

”Ren's going to leave me behind, I don't know what to do mom.”

Hearing her daughter, Hazuki reassured Izumi, ”Don't worry, he won't leave you behind or anything like that. In fact, I'm pretty sure Ren cares about you and everyone else apart of Team 2 very much. Didn't he say the memories you shared would be in his heart forever?”

Feeling less gloomy, Izumi wiped her tears, ”Thank you mom”

”It's my job as a mother to reassure you when you're feeling down or motivate you and steer you towards the right direction when you're lost.” Hazuki smiled.

”Wow! Tsunade is the most skilled person in medical ninjutsu and is considered the greatest medical-nin. Not only is she the greatest medical-nin she is also considered the world's strongest strength-wise!”
