Chapter 3 – Itachi
The way her eyes started to glow reminded me of the last three months. She would let tears fall down every day and night, and all just because I couldn't give her any hope – if I did, she wouldn't have helped me with her sorrow. But now it is not needed anymore.
"I know. He never ceased to breathe in hatred, not even the second I died. He threatened that he won't be stopped by anyone or anything. Yet, to see me in flesh and blood nowmay change his mind. Still, now we've got a bigger concern. Your due date is slowly approaching."
Stepping next to her, I pulled her back next to my chest, embracing both her and the little lovely thing growing inside. I never told her I could hear it, the way it smiled when it heard our voices, or the way it almost cried when she also did… I might tell her someday.
"What are you going to do next ? Will we stay here, and bring up our child in this beautiful place we both grew up, too ?"
Her voice sounded pretty delighted when she made up the entire scenario for our family life. I wasn't sure what to do, but I think that no place will welcome you as the one you were born in.
"That would be the best thing to do. I could role up as a jounin here, or do some high rank missions. And you could join too, after you deliver the baby. I am sure that Tsunade will be glad."
I didn't even finish the sentence when I felt her embracing me tightly, not wanting to let go. A little smile appeared on my face as I long kissed her forehead. We were together again. Forever.
