You and Me Equals Love
Chapter 28
Three years later...
Hinata opened her eyes and was welcome by the rays of sun peeping behind the drapes. It was Saturday and it was her day off from the office. She stretched and yawned.
She already did her laundry last night. What she needed to do now was buy herself some groceries for her pantry was running low.
She got up and showered. She decided to eat something first before going out. She placed some water in her coffee maker and prepared herself some black coffee for later. She then took her favorite cereal. She filled her bowl and then added cold milk.
She sat down to enjoy her meal. She was not in a rush so she took her time, staring at an open space as she chewed the cereal absent-mindedly.
Soon, she placed the empty bowl at the sink and took her coffee. The whole kitchen was filled with the aroma of coffee and she loved that.
She glanced at her clock and saw that it was almost nine in the morning. She finished her coffee and went up to her room to get dressed. She chose to wear a comfortable t-shirt and stone-washed denim, shorts. Then she made her way out.
She has nothing to do that day so she decided to do her shopping somewhere far than where she usually goes to. She got in her car and took off to her destination.
The drive was a silent one. She was able to get a good parking space, to which she was thankful.
She got out and passed by a couple of families who were on their weekly bonding chore. She smiled to herself as she watched the happy family.
She went in and gotten a few appreciative glances. She took a cart and pushed it along, leisurely checking the aisles and picking out her needed commodities.
She soon reached the frozen section and realized that she still had a few cuts at home. She decided not to purchase any meat and went on to tour the fruit section. She then went to get herself some shampoo, soap and detergent for her laundry.
She was soon done and headed for the cashier to pay. As she waited in line, she made a mental note to place her items in the car and head back to the mall for a stroll. She liked the idea and was smiling as her turn arrived.
After making her purchases, she carried the bags to the car.
As she walked, something furry stopped her from advancing further. She looked down and saw a cute puppy, wagging it's tail happily at her. She placed the grocery bags down. The dog had a collar, so it was legally owned and just lost.
"Hey, are you lost little fella?" she stated in her mother tongue. Much to her surprise, the dog barked happily and wagged it's tail even more.
She scratched the dog behind it's ear. She never got herself a pet, but she liked animals.
She just thought that if she had gotten a pet, the poor thing would be left at home while she worked.
"Kaito!"
A male voice behind her rang loud and clear. The voice came out worried and relieved at the same time. Hinata knew this must be the owner.
"I am sorry if he has bothered you..." the accented voice stated in English as he grew near.
The dog wagged it's tail even faster and barked happily as the owner walked towards them. Hinata stood up and then turned to face the stranger.
Her opal eyes grew large with surprise... her mouth opened in shock as she gasped.
"Hinata?" the man asked.
She felt the world spin around her. She wobbled, her knees grew weak... but he caught her.
And as she stared into his eyes, she knew she had lost it...
"Sasuke..." she whispered before she blacked out.
~tbc~
Yeah, it was short and a cliffhanger... don't I always do that?
I can't believe it's almost Christmas! Meaning only one thing... I will be busy in the past few days until the New Year.
Thank you for reading... hope you guys have a Happy Holiday Season! Love you all!
