Memory

Naruto was a boy and she was a girl. The day they met is marked on a calendar, and is a well kept memory.

At that time, everything was peaceful. The grassy field which she had been playing at, before he had discovered it along with her, was very wonderful. Now, that place holds only a faint memory, for the flowers that once grew in the trees and the river that was once so spotless, are no longer the same anymore.

It was a typical game of tag which young Naruto forced the adults into playing, and while stumbling too far from the village he came from, he found a magical place. Colorful flowers decorated the tall trees, tall green grass covered the land, one clear river nearby perfect enough to drink. Sitting in the middle of it all was a single, beautiful girl.

Half dazed as he was upon seeing the area, Naruto approached the girl and quickly, also surprisingly, the two became friends through an enjoyable conversation.

However, that fateful meeting ended against their will when the adults of their respective villages found them and tore them apart. A few days later, Naruto managed to escape once again and go back to the field, only to find that his friend wasn't there.

He waited for as long as he could. Still, the young girl he met never showed up. It wasn't much of a surprise to him, for she could of just simply visited the place days before. The two hadn't made any arrangements either. They only had a few wonderful laughs together.

The next thing he remembered, as he stood at the very spot they sat next to each other, was himself lying on a bed with an injury to his head. The memories of the girl had become weak, nearly non-existent, but Naruto still held onto it right until now. He definitely kept in mind of that girl's name, who he finds himself craving for once more.

Momo.
