Mari looks tired, but she won't admit it. I don't think she's sleeping well, what with all the running rings around those Leaf prissy-pants wives, keeping Hyūga in his place, and fussing over me. I keep telling her I'm fine, but she keeps dragging me out to meet people, have lunch in restaurants, that kind of thing. I know what she's doing—wants to convince me that Leaf is part of the team so I'll stop trying to blow them up. She's such an optimist; people who are on your team don't try to have important votes without telling you, talk bad about you behind your back, spread rumors about how you're traitors just waiting for a chance, or send chakra monkeys to spy on your house. They think I didn't notice, but I did. Need to upgrade the security again, add anti-monkey defenses.
