: Heartbreak :
: crushing grief, sadness, or anguish
The sun rays lightly hit the piglet's eyelids.
Fluttering open its eyes, Tonton let out a cute little yawn as it stretched its butt up.
She jumped down from its soft little bed and walked out through the doggy door.
Tonton sat in front of a door and let out a little squeal. The door opened and a warm smile greeted the pig, Shizune picked up Tonton and rubbed its head "Good morning, Tonton. Now, let's get you bathed and ready for the day"
Tonton loves her bath. Especially because she gets to wear beautiful clothes right after.
Following Shizune close behind, she waddled her small little legs to keep up with the human.
Shizune knocked on Tsunade's door and said "Tsunade-sama? It's morning already!"
"Yeah, yeah! I know, alright?!" Tsunade groaned as she opened the door, she yawned loudly and said "Come on, Shizune. I'm still working on Naruto's arm at the hospital"
"Won't you take a bath first, mi'lady?" Shizune asked as she picked up Tonton and hurried to follow the blonde, Tsunade waved her hand dismissively and said "I already took a bath last night"
Tonton couldn't help but pout. Tsunade really is over-working herself, as per usual.
It surely is fun!
One of Tonton's favorite pastime is playing ball with herself.
Outside Tsunade's office, Tonton played happily. Tsunade didn't want anyone disturbing, so only she and Shizune were inside working, Shizune being her assistant and all.
The ball was clever. It knew that Tonton can't jump high!
Tonton growled, the ball was talented beyond the pig.
But it stopped.
Tonton smirked as she slowly crawled her way towards the ball, sneaking silently.
Then she pounced over the ball and caught it between her two little hooves.
But the ball bounced out and rested on the windowsill.
Joke's on the ball! Tonton can flyyyyyyyyy!
Tonton jumped and caught the ball in her mouth, but it hit her head on the glass and accidentally opened the window, falling out from the third floor.
Tonton screamed in terror as she fell. Only to be caught in the bushes.
Tonton peaked out and sighed in relief, but then, she realized that her necklace weren't on its neck anymore.
The pig panicked and looked around. She found the pearl necklace in the middle of the path.
Sighing in relief, she strutted towards the necklace happily.
But Tonton was too late.
"Troublesome Kakashi" Shikamaru groaned as he carried a stack of paper that was taller than him "He makes me do all the hard work! I just wanna sleep!"
Then an unsuspecting foot stepped on an unsuspecting necklace.
"Uwah!!" Shikamaru screamed as slipped, causing the papers to fly around.
Tonton screamed, her necklace was broken!
"What the hell, Tonton?!" Shikamaru groaned as he stacked the papers again before leaving "You're trying to help and all, but I said sleep, not slip! Troublesome pig..."
As the lazy Nara walked away, Tonton hurried towards the broken necklace and gathered the pearls in her robe.
Hopefully Shizune can fix it for her.
One by one, she stuffed it in her mouth, between her teeth, and into her tiny clothes.
But then she spotted one small bead rolling away.
She screamed in panic and ran after it, careful to keep the pearls in her clothes.
As she ran after the pearl, villagers after villagers kept kicking it off further, making it hard for her to catch it.
As she turned around the corner, she couldn't find anything.
"Your ramen's as awesome as always, Oji-san!"
Tonton's ears perked up. She knew that voice!
Surely he'd help her find the missing pearl!
She quickly placed one foot in front of the other and waddled towards the little ramen store.
"Hahaha! Thank you, Naruto!" Teuchi laughed "Although we hear that almost everytime from you, it never gets old!"
"Hehe, you deserve the praise afterall!" Naruto chuckled as he rubbed a finger bellow his nose, then turned to his side and grinned "Am I right, Hinata?!"
"Y-Yeah" Hinata agrees as she picked up a chasyu "E-Everything's always so well-cooked, it's perfect. I-I especially like the taste of the grilled pork"
Tonton froze in horror.
Naruto laughed as he watched Hinata happily eat the meat, "Yeah! Pork chasyu miso ramen is the best! Pork! Pork! I eat them everyday!!"
Tonton watched in utter horror as she watched two of her owners' favorite people eat pork.
They eat pork everyday?!
But she's pork!
Would that mean they'll eat her too?!?!
Tonton turned on her heel and ran off while screaming.
She ran blindly, until she spotted the distinguishable pink hair off in the distance.
Thank goodness! Sakura will protect her from those... Those... Those monsters!
Letting out a loud squeal to call for her, Tonton sped up to Sakura with tears.
"Oh shut it, forehead!"
Uh-oh, Ino and Sakura are having another one of their heated arguments!
Tonton stopped and hid behind a convenient rock.
They sure do hate each other.
Sakura pressed foreheads with Ino and growled "You're such a pig! Become more civilized, Ino-pig!"
"Just because you've finally gotten an ad for your billboard doesn't mean I'm afraid of you, billboard brow!" Ino spat back, Sakura hissed and yelled "Pig!" "Forehead!"
Tonton felt her little heart break in half.
If Sakura hates Ino so much. And she's named her pig... And Tonton's a pig... Then...
Does Sakura hate Tonton, too?
With newfound tears streaming down her cheeks, Tonton turned the other way and ran away, back to the hospital.
Leaping up the stair cases while dodging patients, visitors, and medics, Tonton made her way to Tsunade's office.
She found that her master's door was opened by a crack, so she used her head to push open the door to enter.
With too much force, the door slammed open and Tonton came rolling in, the beads falling out of her robes and scattered.
Tsunade gasped and knocked off the pasty white arm off the table, making Shizune yelp and step back, only to step on some pearls and slip, causing the instruments to fall down the tiled floor.
Tsunade panicked and grabbed the arm back to the table, using her Mystical Palm to get rid of any germs that could have contaminated it's exposed and sensitive outer layer.
Shizune quickly picked up the instruments and sanitized them.
The two sighed in relief, and then turned towards the pig who looked at them with guilt.
Tsunade gave her the most annoyed and disappointed look.
Tonton gasped.
Shizune knelt down after getting rid of her surgery attire and picked up Tonton.
Tonton immediately ran to her arms.
Shizune bowed at Tsunade before she marched out with Tonton.
The woman set the little piglet down to a chair and gave her a stern look, "What did I say?!"
Tonton shrunk in shame as Shizune put a hand to her waist.
"I told you to stay here and play! Tsunade-sama can't afford to be distracted!" Shizune scolded "Tonton, stay on that chair until we're done! Do you understand?!"
Tonton sadly nodded.
"Good" Shizune huffed as she walked back in after saying "Now, behave"
The door closed shut, Tonton could hear Shizune apologizing on Tonton's behalf.
The sun was already down and the lights of the hall were dimmed down to conserve energy.
Leaving the poor little piglet cold and alone.
She slumped down on the chair and rested her little head on her two front legs.
She never had a day worst than this.
Now, everything just seemed so dull.
Her necklace, her friends, her family...
She sighed deeply.
She just wants to sleep it off.
"Tonton?"
A gentle voice called.
"Tonton, wake up"
Then it was followed with a soft nudge.
Tonton opened her eyes slowly. Only to be met with Shizune and Tsunade.
She then bowed her head in shame. She looked everywhere but to Tsunade and Shizune.
Oh, it's night time already... Maybe they decided that as punishment, Tonton should stay in the hospital and not go home with them.
"Oh, you silly pig" Tsunade said as she picked her up. Tonton was surprised to say the very least. Shizune smiled gently and said "Here"
In her hands, she raised a newly fixed necklace.
Tonton squealed in delight. But how?!
"An ANBU followed you around today to make sure you were safe" Tsunade said as Shizune put the necklace back on the piglet, "I'm sorry you got to experience that"
"We gathered all the pearls that was in the office and got it on a stronger nilon" Shizune said "We found out one was still missing, so Sakura volunteered to find it for you"
Tonton felt her heart soar. Sakura doesn't hate Tonton afterall!
"But she failed to find it" Shizune continued "Luckily, Naruto heard what happened from Ino, so he and Hinata, out of the kindness of their hearts, looked for it too. They even got to the point where Hinata used her Byakūgan, and Naruto had to jump in the sewage and follow it out to the gushing river so that she won't have to do it herself"
Shizune giggled, recalling Naruto and Hinata coming back with a single pearl with proud looks, the blonde soaking wet and the bluenette perfectly fine.
"They went through all the trouble just to make you happy, Tonton" Tsunade said as she gently rubbed the piglet's head "You should thank them tomorrow"
Tonton felt butterflies in her stomach. Naruto and Hinata, they weren't monsters afterall!
She felt ashamed to think of those three so wrongly.
Tonton nodded happily. For sure, she'll repay them!
"What's the occasion, Obaa-chan?!" Naruto asked excitedly as they all sat in the Ichiraku's Ramen stand.
Tsunade laughed and said "Tonton pulled us here and decided to treat you three to some ramen!"
"Awesome! Hit me up with the usual, then!" Naruto yelled, Hinata then nervously asked "B-But isn't it kinda rude to eat... Pork, in front of Tonton?"
"Oh, don't worry about it" Shizune said "Tonton already ordered for all of us!"
Teuchi and Ayame placed their bowls in front of them with gleaming faces, "Spicy seafood ramen! The most expensive in the house!"
"S-Spicy..." Sakura's eyetwitched.
"S-Seafood..." Hinata dulled.
The two looked at each other from either sides of Naruto and nodded.
They both jumped off of their stools and nervously bowed.
"I-I just remembered" Sakura made up "My mom and dad wanted me to run some errands! Bye!!"
The pinkette flickered away.
"U-Um... I-I, too, h-have some errands" Hinata said as she backed away "P-Please excuse us, bye!"
The bluenette quickly ran off.
Naruto jumped off his seat and ran after Hinata "Oi! Hinata! Where'ya going?! What about the rameeeen?!?!"
Tsunade and Tonton watched the three teens disappear without a clue of why as Shizune sighed.
"I told you Sakura and Hinata wouldn't like that" Shizune sighed, Tsunade shrugged and said "More for us, then!"
Tonton just oinked.
Hi hi hi hello hello hello! It's the author again!
Okay, so I guess judging by the title, you thought either Hinata or Naruto would be heartbroken hahahaha, it's a bit misleading, so I'm sorry!
I wanted to make another chapter where a different character sees NaruHina from their point of view. But I decided to take it up a notch and turn it into Tonton's point of view! Hahahaha
Anyway, at this point, I wanted it to be somewhat obvious that Naruto and Hinata are now often together.
And I also wanted to make you guys know here that at this point also, Naruto and Hinata already are starting to team up and work together.
And, I just wanted to show Hinata's dislike for shrimps and crabs and Sakura's to spicy food since it never was emphasized in the manga nor anime yet it was still in the databook.
Anyway!
Do you have any suggestions? Prompts? Ideas? Plots? Anything that you want to see in this book? Just comment down bellow and I'll read'em!
'Til the next chapter!
