9 A Wolfs Embrace 3 (2/2)
”Hai! Hai! Hello, it's nice to meet you. I'm Inuzuka Daisuke.” I said politely.
”Welcome Daisuke kun. I'm Teuchi and this is Ayame my daughter.” He said.
”Hello Daisuke kun.” She said with a sweet smile. ”What would you want to eat?”
”Can i also have 1 miso ramen.” I said.
”Coming right up! And for being Naruto's first friend, both of your first bowl is on the house.” He said.
”Yatta!” Naruto yelled.
I ate my food leisurely while savoring the most delicious ramen i've ever tasted while Naruto had already eaten 3 servings. I finished my 2nd Ramen while Naruto was still eating his 6th.
”Hey Naruto i need to go back and meet with my Mom now.” I said.
”Okay Daisuke.” He said with a smile while concealing a sad emotion underneath.
I understood his worries since nobody wants to play with him or even just hangout with him. Me being with him this time is a first for him, well it's also my first time hanging out with my literal age group but for me i don't care since i'm 19 years old if you add my previous age.
”Say, why don't we meet here the day after tomorrow around the same time since i need to attend something tomorrow.”
Feeling excited, Naruto expressed a loud confirmation.
”Hai! Daisuke, let's meet again the day after tomorrow, dattebayo!” He said.
I nodded then i proceeded to pay for my meal and since my mom gave me extra i paid for Naruto's 3 bowls and thanked Teuchi for the delicious ramen.
”Ne ne! Ayame-Nee. What does the day after tomorrow means. I'm kind of confuse.” Naruto said while scratching his head.
I went back to the meet up place my mom and i decided then after everything has been bought even the gifts, we went on our way home.
....
The next day December 27
It's finally Hinata's 4th Birthday. We went to the Hyuga Compound and we were met by Hiashi dono? Wait that's not Hiashi dono. That's Hizashi, Neji's Dad. I thought that Hinata was abducted when she was 3 years old. Is it in her 4 years old Birthday?
When we entered the compound i saw some Kumogakure ninja's my suspicion has finally been cleared and i knew exactly what's going to happen later.
While the party was ongoing i was silently thinking if i should save Hinata from the abduction. It won't be a problem since i know the forest behind the Hyuga compound like the back of my hand since i've been training there for almost 5 months now.
But, if i save Hinata then the timeline will be disrupted. The future will change if i do such thing, but can i just tolerate the situation while knowing that someone will be abducted and someone will die while i know such thing. While i was talking with myself i didn't see someone walking in my direction.
”Hell-llo Daisuke-kun.” Someone said while i was dazing.
”Ohhh, Hello Hinata. Happy Birthday.” I smiled.
”Thank you D-Daisuke-kun. Also thank you for the gift, i really liked what you and your mom gave me.” She said.
”Well your certainly doing fine now Hinata. You don't stutter as much as you do since we last met.” I said.
”W-well i d-don't have any friends here in the compound so i-i just don't want you to think t-that i'm weird by stuttering so much since you and Shino are my onl-ly friend.” She said with a beet red facial expression.
”Well that's great. But don't worry Hinata. I won't look at you anything less even if you stutter all of your words. You're my friend and nothing can't change that. If you don't have any friends here why don't you come in our compound sometimes so we can play anytime you want. Also if you want to i can visit you here sometimes since i'm alone most of the time in our compound.” I said.
”Thank you. That would be lovely D-Daisuke-kun.” She said while looking down on her feet like it is the greatest feet in the whole world.
Since i've had my 2nd birthday when i unlocked my chakra i've been really keen on understanding one's emotion. That's why i knew that Naruto was sad even if he smiles like a full ray of sunshine. Right now, even though Hinata is shy and embarass of what i said. I can also feel that there's a large amount of gratitude that is why before she looked down i saw a glimpse of a teary white eyes.
After that Hinata goes back to her father since they'd be welcoming more guests that attended her birthday. That is when i knew what i had to do.
'Since i've reincarnated into this world, i've only interacted with a small amount of people and i've only been close with a lot less. To be precise that would only be my Mom, Hana, Izumi when she visits Hana, Naruto just recently, and now Hinata.'
”In the series Naruto wants to be strong to become the Hokage in order for the village to accept him on who he really is. Maybe, just maybe, i've already found my nindo to persevere in this world.” I whisphered.
”I'm gonna be strong, stronger than anyone else. So that i'll be able to protect and save, those who are precious to me.” I whisphered but internally it sounds stronger than a heartfelt scream.
...
I went to my mom and told her that i don't feel so good. We made our goodbye with Hiashi and his brother Hizashi and i also came to Hinata and hugged her. We went home soon and when i got home i asked my mom if i could sleep in my bed now and she gave me a goodnight sleep. I told Carrot to guard the door and move around the bed if my mom should take a look on me while i made a decoy on my bed.
After that i wore my Black jacket with a black hoodie then i proceeded to put the black mask on with white whiskers and a kanji for wolf on it's right forehead. I then got my dark cloak on that i just recently bought for myself. After that i silently opened and closed the window then shunshined at the direction of the Hyuga's Compound with a calm and serious face.
