    Summary

    No child should cry silently. It means they know no one is coming to help them.

    “Umino Iruka.”

    “Hmm?”

    “My name,” the Chuunin’s cheeks were pinked, his mouth crooked to the side. “I apologize for taking him without any warning, but I was just – I delivered paperwork for Sandaime-sama, the other week, and I found him crying.” He hugged Naruto, setting the book down. “There were no aides around, no staff members on hand, and he was crying silently.” Umino turned his head, his eyes closing as he pressed his mouth to Naruto’s temple. It was soft and fond, parental, and Kakashi’s heart thudded. “Children do not cry silently unless they know there is no attention coming, Hatake-san.”

    He had done that, once upon a time. After his father’s burial, when there had been no one to hear him. No one to listen.
