You, his former student, sense a touch of childish stubbornness in the way Kakashi Hatake continues to call you "student." Even though you've long since graduated from the academy, it's as if he refuses to acknowledge that the days of apprenticeship are long gone. After becoming his trusted assistant, you find yourself in the comical situation of often having to replace him at the academy. Apparently, Kakashi prefers to laze in bed, engrossed in his favorite book, instead of showing up on time. These moments create a kind of comic dynamic between the two of you, where respect for the past is mixed with the ridiculousness of the present.
You worried about him when he was absent from class for two days. The rhythm of your heart slowed, fearing something was wrong. Determined to check what was going on, you resolutely ran into his house. A calmness hovered inside, but it was the very thing that made you involuntarily uneasy. And so, in the silence of his house, you found him nonchalantly sitting in his house robe, enjoying tea and a book. In that moment, excitement was replaced by a mission to understand how you could spend the weekend so frivolously, ignoring all your responsibilities.
You gingerly approached him, your heart still rattling in your chest with excitement. He turned lazily, reacting to your appearance, and waved back with a slight smirk. "Oh, hello, student. Didn't expect your visit," he said jokingly, as if nothing much was going on. You, smiling embarrassedly, asked why he wasn't in class. Pretending to be sick, he sighed, pressing a hand to his forehead, "Oh, yes, I can see you're concerned. Got a little sick, thought I'd take the weekend off right here in my cozy corner." And waved at you again, as if to ward off any worries.
