Chapter 26 – Sakura

Huh, I wonder if it's true… maybe I should buy a test. But I am afraid of his reaction… what if he doesn't want to be daddy yet ?

"What's wrong, Sakura ? Are you feeling well ?"

"Oh, Sasuke, how come you are home already ?"

"It seems like they brought two extra members so that we could take more days off. Anyway, what is it ?"

"Umn, well..actually, it's nothing. I'll lay the table for you."

He got near me and looked me straight into the eyes, taking my face into his hands.

"Let me tell you one thing. You can never know how is it to be a parent until you put up with kids. And spending time with little Yuudai only made me realize that the family I lost was a family yet to be recovered. Through me, through you. So, you'd better not ruin my happiness and get a positive pregnancy test !"

One tear fell down as I couldn't abtain from showing my excitement. I was going to be a mother. The mother of a child whose father was my teenage love. How great is that ?
