Chapter one:
"Awww… Come on…" Uchiha Mikoto dragged her son towards the boutique in front of their mansion. She shrugged off those people who were sending her weird glances. She doesn't looks like a kidnapper anyway, does she? She waved her right hand to greet an old man who greeted her. She's just friendly to those people who are kind to her, that's all.
'Blossom Boutique' –is the name of the shop they were heading. She stopped on her tracks as they finally reached their destination.
"Mother, why would you need to drag me along when you can just handle yourself alone?" a dark-haired handsome guy named Uchiha Sasuke asked seriously. It's very obvious that he didn't like her idea at all.
Mikoto looked back to meet her youngest son's onyx eyes. She smiled sweetly, pretending not to notice the dark aura from him. "Now, now, getting impatient, aren't we?"
Sasuke growled in response and sighed in defeat at last. He always knew he'll never get the chance to win when it comes to her. "Whatever."
"Don't worry, Sasu-chan. We'll just visit Tsunade." Mikoto muttered happily. Tsunade is her new friend who just moved in front of their house a week ago. She's a designer, that's all he knew. This is the first time for him to see her boutique. It was a two-story house. He knew that the former owner of this house went abroad to live a new life with her wife and son. He heard it from her mother but it doesn't mean that he's really interested about it.
As they entered inside the shop, they saw Tsunade eating a pizza with her feet placed on top of her table while reading a magazine. It seems that she didn't notice them yet. So, Mikoto was the first one who broke the silence.
"Ohayou." She greeted enthusiastically. She approached her friend who looked up.
Tsunade smiled and greeted back. "Ohayou Mikoto-san! Please have a seat." She folded the magazine and put it back neatly to its original place. When she went back to her place, she noticed a dark-haired boy looking back at her. She waved her hand at him, "You must be Sasuke?"
"Aa." Sasuke nodded. He observed his surroundings and grabbed the nearest chair for him to be able to sit. "Go on. I would just sit here."
The two women stared at each other for a moment then giggled at the same time like a teenagers.
"So, how's life?" Mikoto asked.

Sasuke continued to observe the whole area. He had this feeling that something's weird around here. He shrugged. It's not his business anyway. He then almost glared at her mother who was laughing like a maniac that time.
"Yeah…yeah… that was all I heard about them." Mikoto stated as she crossed her arms over her chest. She tapped her chin afterwards, faking a thought. "What if you come over to our house tonight and eat with the three of us together. Fugaku's in a business trip anyways… and besides, being alone here sure is lonely."
"I'm not alone." In a flash, Tsunade said it with firmness on her voice. She's having this unreadable expression.
Mikoto frowned at this, "What do you mean you're not alone? I mean, I didn't see anybody else here… you know."
Tsunade blinked twice. Her natural expression came back in a blink of an eye. She scratched the back of her head and laughed nervously. "Y-yeah… you're right. What I… I meant was… my… my guardian angels are always here too! Yeah, that's it. They're watching me everyday. I even named the two of them, you know? Peewee!! And… and Pow-pow!!" Tsunade muttered non-stop while laughing to herself.
Mikoto sweat dropped. Peewee and Pow-pow? Isn't that names for dogs? Oh well… "Is that so? At least you can't see them, right? Come on."
Tsunade thought for a moment and finally nodded after a while. "Okay, okay."
"Great!" Mikoto cheered. She clasped her hands and gave Tsunade a thumbs-up. "We'll wait for you tonight. I guess we should be leaving already."
Tsunade stood up and escorted them outside. "Ja."

As soon as they left, Tsunade went at the other side of the shop. She shoved her left hand inside her pocket and reached for the small blue box. Inside the box were the two star-shaped necklaces. She wore the first one before approaching one of those mannequins which was almost in front of her.
She passed by some other mannequins and stopped in the front of a beautiful pink-haired mannequin. She lifted her hand and caressed its smooth but hard cheek.
"Sakura." She murmured. Slowly, she puts the remaining necklace on the mannequin's neck. She muttered something under her breath. It's more like she's chanting. A moment after, there was a white light appeared around 'Sakura'. Then the said mannequin surprisingly blinked.
"W-What?" came to 'Sakura's' reply.
"Aren't you gonna thank me for making you a human again?"
