Although Haruko had received some simple and perfunctory training on the experience of raising a child from Uchiha Shisui, she was still a little overwhelmed when a new life arrived in their family.

"Haruko, how about you hug him?" Uchiha Mikoto suggested softly.

Haruko walked stiffly to Uchiha Mikoto who was holding the child, looked into the baby's big, dark eyes as she looked at her, and forced a smile.

But Haruko knew that her smile must have been very ugly, because her nephew silently looked away within a few seconds after their gazes met.

Haruko:......

Why did she feel so bad when she saw something on a little baby? !

Uchiha Mikoto laughed, "Itachi seems like he'll be a very considerate child."

"Hahaha...thank him."

With a little nephew, life seems the same as before, but also seems a little different.

Uchiha Mikoto was too capable. Not only did she take care of Uchiha Itachi, she was even able to arrange Haruko's daily life in an orderly manner. Haruko had almost no role in taking care of her little nephew. The meaning of her existence was to entertain her little nephew sometimes and entertain him.

However, judging from the fact that her nephew had no choice but to follow her wishes and grab her hand, perhaps the meaning of her existence is just... existence.

Although Haruko said that she wanted a well-behaved and obedient nephew, but does this nephew who not only doesn't cry but also plays with her really exist? !

Haruko poked Uchiha Itachi's cheek a little unconvinced, and found that a helpless expression appeared on his face again. Haruko really felt very frustrated as an aunt.

"Even if you cry, please act like a little baby so I can comfort you, okay!"

Facing Haruko's wailing, the little baby Uchiha Itachi frowned, his cute face full of seriousness, as if he was thinking about some important life event.

While Haruko was observing him curiously, Uchiha Itachi burst into tears the next second.

"Wow--!"

Haruko's pupils were shocked. She stood up in a panic, wanting to hug him but not daring to.

"No, no, no! I'm just talking, don't cry!"

Uchiha Mikoto's usual voice came from the kitchen, "Haruko, is Itachi playing with you again?"

Perhaps because he heard his mother's voice, Uchiha Itachi calmed down, stared at her with blinking eyes, as if asking her if she was satisfied?

Haruko:......

Forced by reality, Haruko had to accept her precocious nephew, but she still proudly showed off to others that she had become a glorious aunt.

Although this feeling of frustration in front of his little nephew continued, especially after Uchiha Itachi grew up and went to school.

After the training, Uchiha Obito and Uchiha Itachi who came over stared at each other.

Uchiha Obito said in a muffled voice: "Haruko will go back with me, why are you, a little kid, here to pick her up?"

Not intimidated by his droopy face, Uchiha Itachi patiently replied: "Because Haruko is my aunt."

Choked by his obvious kinship, Uchiha Obito couldn't think of anything to refute him for a moment, so his already unhappy face became even more sour.

Nohara Rin said to Haruko beside her with a smile: "I didn't expect Itachi to be more mature than Obito at such a young age."

Speaking of this, Qingzi felt lost, "How can a nephew come to pick up his aunt? My title as an aunt is only in name."

Hatake Kakashi was also puzzled by their unique aunt-nephew relationship, "No matter what, you should be the one to pick him up from school, right?"

"You think I haven't tried?"

Haruko recalled with resentment the first time she excitedly went to pick up her nephew from school.

On the first day of school, the teacher was talking about some theoretical concepts. Even though Itachi Uchiha had no intention of disrespecting the teacher, he was inevitably distracted.

Let's wait a little longer. After this class, school will be over. I wonder if Haruko will come to pick him up...

Of course Haruko remembered. Not only that, she even asked for leave from Minato Namikaze and came early to wait for her nephew to finish school.

Hiding in a tree and observing Uchiha Itachi in class, Haruko nodded with satisfaction, "You are studying seriously!"

The next second, Haruko saw the girl sitting next to Uchiha Itachi pat him, and then Uchiha Itachi turned his head to listen to her carefully.

"It's not good to be absent in class. I'll catch you!"

Although she said this, Haruko was eating her nephew's melon with great interest.

He interacted with girls on the first day of school, he is worthy of being called Itachi!

Being brought back to his senses by the unfamiliar girl sitting next to him, Uchiha Itachi turned his head to look at her with a puzzled look on his face.

Inuzuka Hana asked quietly: "Itachi-san, do you still remember what the teacher just talked about?"

"Ah."

Uchiha Itachi nodded slightly and patiently repeated his teacher's words. There was no sign that he was distracted just now.

After receiving a grateful thank you, Uchiha Itachi turned his gaze to the window with a little boredom.

There seemed to be a breeze blowing outside the window, and the leaves were rippled like river water under the curtain of the sky, even revealing a corner of the reflection.

Reflective?

Uchiha Itachi sensed something was wrong, and he concentrated his attention to capture the white flashes of light hidden in the leaves. It looked like the reflections of floating gauze folded when exposed to the sun.

Tulle? Veil?

Could it be...!

Almost instantly, he thought of someone. Uchiha Itachi's eyes slowly widened, and then he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. The boredom was swept away, replaced by the anxiety and joy of waiting.

Noticing the sudden change in her deskmate's smile, Inuzuka Hana curiously approached him and asked, "What did Itachi see that made you so happy?"

"It's my aunt. She's here to pick me up." Uchiha Itachi replied to her with great pride.

"Itachi-kun turns out to have an aunt."

"Ok!"

Uchiha Itachi calmed down and didn't continue talking to her. He stared at the teacher with sharp eyes, as if he wanted to perform well in front of his aunt.

Seeing his attitude, Inuzuka Hana was stunned for a moment and then sat up straight, not daring to disturb him again.

Finally the get out of class was over. Uchiha Itachi nimbly bypassed the crowd and was the first to rush out of the classroom. When he walked out of the teaching building, he deliberately slowed down his pace and walked forward, pretending that he had not noticed anything.

But his eyes kept wandering around, looking for the figure he wanted to see.

"Itachi! Here!" Haruko, who was almost drowned by the parents in the distance, jumped and waved to him.

The moment his eyes met hers, Uchiha Itachi no longer concealed his excitement. He ran towards her and threw himself into the familiar arms of Qingxiang.

"Haruko!" Uchiha Itachi rubbed her arms and looked at her with his bright eyes.

Haruko also patted his head, but she only spoke gossip about him, "I saw it all. Itachi gets along pretty well with your female classmate!"

The young Uchiha Itachi didn't understand her teasing, and explained seriously with a straight face: "I don't know her."

"Eh?" Haruko was surprised, but she tried to explain herself, "It doesn't matter, we'll get to know each other later. Today's conversation is the beginning of a good relationship!"

Instead of discouraging her enthusiasm, Uchiha Itachi silently classified his deskmate, Inuzuka Hana, a stranger, as someone he should avoid as much as possible.

Haruko was supposed to pick him up, but on the way back she kept talking about his classmates, such as which kid she knew, which kid had grown up and become beautiful, and which kid's name she couldn't remember...

For some reason, Uchiha Itachi felt a little depressed and couldn't help but pull her hand. When Haruko leaned over to listen to him, Uchiha Itachi had a serious expression.

"Haruko, I seem a little unhappy."

Haruko paused at this, worry rising on her face, "Is Itachi unhappy about going to school?"

Uchiha Itachi shook his head, "Haruko is always talking about other people, so I am not happy."

"I see...Is Itachi jealous?"
