FORCED

Chapter 4 :

The next morning, Hinata went to the hospital for her daily shift. On the way to the hospital, she noticed that people were smiling to her. It was very weird. The smiles were unusual. Still in confusion, Hinata reached the hospital. She headed to the staff room. That's where she know what was the smiles is all about.

Upon entered the room, Sakura was screaming and hugging her. Tsunade and Shizune were doing the same. Hinata was preplezed. After the screaming and shouting and hugging had ended, Hinata asked them what was the occasion. The three of then looked at each other. " Sakura, don't tell me your info is not correct," Tsunade questioned her. Sakura was taken aback, "My info is always correct. It couln't be wrong.!." Hinata was still confused. " What is this all about, Shizune-san," Hinata asked Shizune. Before Shizune could answer, Sakura screamed again. Sakura took Hinata's right hand and shoved it to Tsunade's face.

" Look, Tsunade-sama! This is the proof. This is the engagement ring," Sakura screamed with triumph. Hinata's face was pale. How? How did Sakura know? Shizune saw Hinata's face. " Are you alright, Hinata?." Hinata nodded slowly. After recovering from the shock Hinata asked Sakura. " Sakura, how did you know?." Sakura tilted her face to the side and smile. " How can everyone not know?." Hinata murmured," But it was only informed last night.. How can everyone know already?." Hinata was fiddling with her fingers and her face was red. " Your father made the announcement this morning. The wedding will be held next month right," Tsunade asked gently. Hinata nodded.

Tsunade looked at the young woman in front of her lovingly. Tsunade knew about the Hyuuga family and wondered if this is another traditional Hyuuga's destiny. She pitied Hinata. She watched how Hinata had changed slowly in front of her. Hinata is still the same shy Hinata but Tsunade knew she's much stronger than before. " You know what this means? We're going to held a bachelor party," Sakura winked mischievously. Now Hinata was as red as a ripe tomato. Everyone couldn't help laughing seeing Hinata's reaction. " Don't worry! I'll make it a clean one," Sakura grinned. Hinata just nodded.

Neji was on his way to Hokage's office when he met Lee on the way there. Lee made a disappointed face. Slyly, Neji asked, " What's the matter?." " You're going to get marry and you didn't even give me a hint about it," Lee explained sadly. Neji was caught off-guard. " How did you know?." " Well. It's not just me. Everyone knows. Your uncle made the announcement early this morning. The news spread like wild fire!." Neji nodded. Lee patted Neji on the shoulder and took his leave. " Congratulations," Lee yelled from afar. Everyone there looked at their direction. Most of them give Neji a 'congratulation' smile. Neji just nodded back. Sighing, he headed towards the Hokage's office. " Great! Now everyone know….," Neji mumbled.
