Love Therapy: Chapter Twelve
Author's POV
Haruhi was playing at the playground with some of her friends, just before she went down the slide she saw a figure who looks very similar to her father. In her heart she knew it wasn't him, but the resemblance was uncanny. The man with blonde hair, blue eyes stood there and gave her a small wave.
Haruhi did the only thing she would do and wave back. After receiving that response from her, the man decided to head towards Haruhi.
Haurhi eyes widen when the figure got closer and closer, everything about this man was like her father. From the colour of the hair, the cheeky smile and the aura of friendliness that was surrounding the older man.
The man bend down "Hey there..."
Haruhi just smiled back "Hi..." She said unsurely "Are you alone Mr?"
The man just smiled "Nope, I'm here to meet my granddaughter"
Haruhi grinned "Where is she? Is she here?"
The man nodded "Yep, but she doesn't know that I'm here. I wanted to surprise her"
"I like surprises" Haruhi burst out
"Really?" the man looked up a bit "You know I can read minds a little"
"Really?" Haruhi asked "That's so cool, what can you do?"
"Well...I know your name and age"
Haruhi gasp "What is it?"
"Your name is Haruhi and you are turning 3 real soon" the older gentlemen let out another cheeky grin
Haruhi clapped her hand "Wow, you're really good"
The man soon pulled out a weird looking coin that has a symbol of swirl with a point on the end, with a number of 47 and on the other side was a rough sketch of a fox, with a number 9 in roman numerals. "This is a magic trick that I was taught by my father". The man put the coin in Haruhi's hand and got her to clutch it real tight. After several seconds Haruhi opened her hand and the coin was no longer there. She was amazed.
The man smiled "Where is the coin?" He asked
Haruhi smiled "Where is it?"
The man pulled the coin from her right ear, but this time a chain was attached to it. The man unlock the chain and gave it to Haruhi "Put it around your neck" he says.
Haruhi did as she was told "The necklace look good on you"
"Thank you Mr." Haruhi let out "I can't wait to tell my dad about this"
Then man smile disappear "OH! I don't think you should tell your dad"
Haruhi gave the man a confused look "Why not?"
He just smiled again "It'll be our secret, okay?"
Haruhi just nodded her head. She quickly tucked the pendant inside her shirt. The man got up "Well...I have to get going"
"Will we see each other again?" Haurhi asked
The man turned around "I get the feeling we will" and watched as he walked away.
Naruto looked at the time it was nearly 1.30 pm and he is to pick up his daughter soon. His happy mood no longer there, it was replace with a rather more concern for Sakura.
He can tell that the woman really loves her husband and she has the right to, after all they are married. However he's beginning to doubt that he can save their marriage. Perhaps if Sakura decided to no longer to continue to touch the subject, Sasuke will still continue to be married to her. With his last thought on the couple, he grabbed his jacket and head towards his car.
Naruto rolled by the childcare centre and signed in the dairy again.
"Daddy" Naruto smiled hearing the voice "You came again"
"Of course, I wouldn't miss it for the world. Are you hungry" Naruto asked, Haruhi just nodded her head "I'm thinking maybe McDonalds or..."
"McDonalds, McDonalds, McDonalds" she chanted. Naruto just chuckled and got into the car with his daughter.
After having lunch, Naruto took Haruhi to his work place to show her around; after all he is still working. He led to her to the Kitchen, his office with a fantastic view, but her favourites was the fish tank. Naruto got Hana to keep an eye on his daughter while he's with his last client for today: Yakushi Kabuto.
For some reason, this man was giving Naruto bad vibes. Even though the man was smiling at Naruto like any normal client would and greeted and thanked him. There was just something about this man that just seems a little off and Naruto instinct was never wrong.
"Who's that little girl out there?" Kabuto ask
Trusting his instinct Naruto decided to lie "She's one of our client's daughters. Her mother has gone to do grocery shopping and would usually drop her daughter here to be kept watch"
"I see" Kabuto sliped out "She looks an awful lot like you"
Naruto chuckle "Yeah, I get that a lot", Naruto great acting skills have seems to work "So, have you decided to take that vacation yet?"
"Yes I have, in fact I'm planning to go to Okinawa this weekend"
"That sounds lovely. It seems we are running out of time..."
Kabuto looked at his watch "You are right. Perhaps when I get back from my vacation we'll continue"
"Sound perfect to me" Naruto opened the door for Kabuto and shut the door behind him.
Kabuto was heading towards the exit when he noticed the little girl again. He was about to ignore her when a certain chain court his eye that was tucking neatly just behind the girl's shirt. Without thinking twice he leaned next to the girl and looked at the fishes with her. Haruhi ignored him at first; there was something about that man that didn't feel right.
"Lovely fishes"
"They are, aren't they?" Haruhi smiles
"You know something else is lovely" Kabuto faced the little girl with a friendly smile "That necklace you're wearing"
"SSHHH" Haruhi shush out "My dad isn't suppose to know about this"
"Your dad?"
Haruhi nodded "You just met him then"
Kabuto let out a smirk that scares the little girl "Really" Kabuto pushed his glasses up a bit "Tell me, what is your name?"
Uncomfortable as she was, Haruhi just let out another cute smile "I'm Cossette"
"That is a lovely name" Kabuto pretended to look at his watch "Look at the time, I really have to get going"
"Okay" Haruhi let out "Bye"
"Bye Bye" and Kabuto left 'Mr. Orochimaru would be very please to know he has a great grand-niece'
Naruto took his daughter home, since they had fast food for lunch he deicide to make a home cook meal instead for dinner. He put on 'The Lion King' for Haruhi to watch, while he picked up the phone and call Cossette how she was doing. He waited for a moment, yet nothing came. Naruto looked at the time 'Strange, she shouldn't be working today'. Naruto decided to shrug it off 'Maybe she's out with friends.'
Naruto opened a packet of spaghetti and throw in his hand made pizza in the oven.
Cossette was in the limo, she was feeling very happy knowing that her daughter is with her father and she is out on a date. This would have to be their first date together. Cossette wanted to tell Naruto at first, but she feels it's a little too early 'I mean, who knows, this relationship probably last for a month'.
Cossette thought back, she was really surprise when he came and ask her out in person. She has a lot of men asking her out before, but as soon as they found out she has a daughter, they just run off.
"Sorry to keep you waiting"
Cossette smiled "its okay, work must be busy"
"Yeah, the stupid Uchiha Sasuke kept delaying the meeting and when we have the meeting his not paying attention". Cossette let out a giggle "I think it's something to do with your husband...
"I agree with you" Cossette eyes widen "When I saw Sasuke the first time, he was cold towards and was in away sweet to Naruto. It's kind-a cute"
Chuckle was heard from that man "Well...enough about them, it's us we should be talking about. Where would you like to go?" the man took a hold of Cossette hand and gently rub his thumb on her milky, white skin.
"Anywhere you like, Gaara"

Author's Joke: Deadly Fruit
One day in the forest, 3 guys were just hiking along a trail when all of a sudden; a huge pack of Indians attacked them and knocked them out.
When they woke up, they were at the leader of the tribe's throne.
The chief then said "All of your lives may be spared if you can find ten of one fruit and bring them back to me."
So after a while the first man returned with 10 apples. The chief then ordered him to stick all ten of them up his butt without making any expression at all on his face. He had a little bit of trouble with the first one and started crying while trying to put the next one in. He was soon killed.
Later, the next guy came in with 10 grapes. The chief soon ordered him to do the same as the first guy. After to the 9th grape, the man started laughing so hard for no apparent reason, and was killed.
The first two guys soon met in heaven and the first guy asks the second, "Why did you start laughing? You only needed one more grape and you'd have gotten away!"
The second guy answered while still laughing, "I couldn't help it. I saw the third guy walking in with pineapples."
