The beginning to our end part 3

Outside in the waiting room Shikamaru held his head in his hands waiting nervously to find out what happened to his wife. He looked up at the clock which read 3:15am. His wife had been in the operating room for 2 hours already with no sign of him being able to see him soon.

"Here bro" Shikamaru looked up to Kankuro handing him a coffee with Gaara standing next to him.

"Thanks"

"Hey isn't your birthday"

"Yea"

"Then cheer up"

"I'm just worried about her and the baby, ya know"

"Don't be, you know she's the strongest kunoichi out there"

"Yea she is"

Just then Tsunade walked out.

"You guys can go see her now, but she's sleeping and congratulations Shikamaru"

'Congratulations he thought'

" I'll be back in 10 minutes to check on her"

As they walked in the room, they noticed Temari sitting up watching the News that was on the TV.

"Tsunade said you were sleep" Shikamaru said as he walked over to her and placed a kiss on her forehead. "I was, but I just woke up"

"How do you feel Temari" Her youngest asked as her took a seat next to her.

"My stomach is sore, and no one would tell me anything during the surgery, I'm just worried what they'll tell me about the baby"

Knock knock

They saw Sakura enter the room.

"Tsunade had an emergency and is taking care of another patient, so they sent the next best thing" she said as she walked over to Temari with a clipboard.

"So I have some news, Temari you had to have an emergency c-section."

"Where's the baby" Temari asked as tears formed in her eyes.

"She's in intensive care, the doctors are trying to do everything possible."

oooooooooo

"Tsunade, we finally stabilized her breathing and took a sample of her blood"

"What did you notice"

"We noticed that she has Galactosemia"

"How bad"

"We won't know until she starts to develop"

"Ok, I'll run some more chakra test to make sure everything's fine"

Tsunade laid the small baby on her stomach, as she put her hands to the child's chest.

'The chakra reading is not normal' she thought 'in fact it's the exact same as Pain, maybe I made a mistake'

Tsunade did the test one more time with the same results.

"This is honestly is a mystery, it's a miracle she even survived" She said to herself with a smirk on her face

"Might as well go tell them the good news"

As Tsunade began to walk out the room she turned to the nurses and told them "Guys get the baby washed up and finish taking measurements then bring her to the room"

oooooooooo

" Sorry about, I had to finish examining the baby" she said as she entered the room

"How is the baby" shikamaru said jumping out of his chair waiting for an answer with anticipation.

"She's fine except one thing"

"I-It's a girl" Temari said trembling.

Her and Shikamaru had agreed that they wanted the gender of the baby to be a surprise. And finally knowing that it was a girl made her ecstatic because she could give this child the mother daughter relationship that she never had.

"Yes, a beautiful baby girl" Tsunade responded

Joy lit up in Temari's eyes.

Curious about what Tsunade had just said Shikamaru asked "Well, what's the wrong thing?"

"She has galactosemia-"

"What's that" Kankuro asked

"Well if I wasn't interrupted, I was going to explain what it was"

"Sorry, It was just a question" Kankuro said sarcastically

" its a disease in which galactose can not be metabolized, so her diet needs to be galactose free"

Temari had a worried look on her face "so what does she need to stay away from"

"There is no need to worry about that now because she is an infant, but there is one thing"

"What is it"

" you will not be able to breastfeed due to the disease, instead you will have to buy lactose free formula"

A wave of sadness made Temari just want to burst into tears. Breast feeding made a mother feel like a mother and not being able to do it made her feel like a useless parent.

"Tem it'll be fine" Shikamaru said to her in the calmest voice he could. He knew his wife and the look on her face let him know that she was not in a happy place.

"We'll get through this"

"I know"

Just then a nurse with a bassinet walked in.

" You guys ready to meet the newest member of the Nara family"

Everyone turned with with the biggest smiles ready to greet the new baby
