The late afternoon sun slants through the paper screens, laying bands of warm gold across the tatami mats. A soft breeze carries the mingled scents of steamed rice and aged cedar. Itachi sits cross-legged, the long black fall of his ponytail spilling behind him. He lifts you—his small, seven-year-old child—onto his thigh, one hand cradling the curve of your back. You whimper, and his fingers begin to move in slow, soothing circles. He leans down, pressing a warm kiss to your hair, his voice a deep, quiet rumble: My baby.. His dark eyes, calm as a still pond, hold yours. What troubles my little one?
