Welcome to GLA
I opened my eyes to the sunlight the poured out of the glass doors of the balcony, I sat up and stretched my arms and back with a sigh of content, I pulled back the blankets and threw my legs over to the side of the bed; I checked the time, 6:00 am.
I got of the bed and went to the balcony doors; I parted the curtains completely and slid the doors open. I always loved the view there, from the balcony I could see the sunrise and I loved to go star-gazing there. I propped my elbows on the railing and watch the early morning streets. 'I think I'll ask Sakura and Ino to come with me to the asylum.' I thought.
Haruno Sakura and Yamanaka Ino were my two best friends, it was convenient that they live near each other; their houses were just in front of each other! It was even more convenient that they're only 2 blocks away.
I jumped when I realized that I should be making breakfast now, we had 4 maids but they go back to their families on summer, so I was left to cook, dad was out on his business trip but even if he was here, I doubt he could cook, Neji-nii couldn't cook to save his life and Hanabi…was just too lazy to learn how to. Mom and I were the only ones who knew how to cook, but sadly, mom had died, drowning in the ocean. But strangely, my fondness of water did not waver.
I went downstairs to the kitchen, I saw Hanabi sprawled on the coach, playing Guitar Hero on her PSP, hair unkempt and her pajama's ruffled, "Hanabi, you're such a tomboy." I called from the kitchen, putting my long indigo hair into a low ponytail and putting an apron on.
Hanabi snorted, "It's better than being all prim and proper."
'Hanabi must be good at that game.' I thought, listening to the sounds the console made, from what I'm hearing, she hadn't missed one yet.
I took some eggs from the fridge and set it on the counter, then some bacon cuts. I reached for the pan that hung next to my head and put it on the stove, a loud "Heeeey!" made me look at the living room; it seemed that Neji-nii had grabbed the PSP from Hanabi.
I smiled as I cooked the bacon and eggs, listening to Hanabi and Neji argue.
"Neji-nii! Give it back!" Hanabi whined, reaching for the electronic.
Neji just smirked, easily beating Hanabi's high score, "I don't want to."
Neji-nii was the image of sophistication, you could tell he belonged to high society, he seemed cold, nonchalant and, I dare say, an a'hole, but when it was just me, Hanabi and father, he was kind, caring and fun to be with. Father took Neji in when Neji's father, Hizashi, who was also my father's brother, died. (Did you understand the last sentence?)
"Breakfast's ready!" I called, setting the bacon omelet on the table, instantly, I heard Hanabi's rushed footsteps and Neji's own light footsteps following.
We sat down and ate, "So Hinata, where are you heading?" Neji asked.
I swallowed the piece of egg in my mouth and replied, "I'm going to Sakura and Ino's, then to the asylum."
"Do you want a ride?" Neji questioned, and then he drank his glass of orange juice.
I shook my head, "It's a short way, and Ino's gonna take me to the asylum."
Neji nodded, "That's great!" Hanabi shouted, "Now Neji-nii can come with me to the mall and buy lingerie!"
Neji's eyes widened and he spit the water he was drinking, "W-w-wha..cough..WHAT?!" he asked, horrorstricken.
I bit on my knuckles to stop myself from laughing, Hanabi didn't bother to keep quiet, "Hahaha! I'm just joking nii-san, I would never bring you to a lingerie store, think of the poor women there, they'll be like, "PERVERT!", ahahahaha!" Hanabi said, waving her hand dismissively.
I finished the last of my meal and headed upstairs to shower and dress, "Hanabi, your turn to do the dishes!"
I heard Hanabi groan.

"Ino-chan! Sakura-chan!" I exclaimed, while the two hugged me.
"Guess what!" Ino said loudly.
"What?" I asked the blonde beauty, she wore a white tennis skirt and a short-sleeved blue tie top with matching shoes.
"We're also gonna help out at the asylum!" Ino cheered, "But only on Saturdays though…"
I smiled at that, "Are we going?"
"Hmm..it's 9:00…let's go!" Sakura said, flipping her long pink hair, she wore denim cutoffs and a pink knot top with rose flip-flops.
We got into Ino's purple convertible and sped off to Green Leaf Asylum.

I gazed up at Green Leaf Asylum, it was a big 3-story building, and it looked….clean. Of course it was clean, but I imagined it like those stories I read, dull gray walls with paint chipping off, dead, dry trees that seem to reach out to you. But there was none, all the trees were lush and green.
When we walked inside the doors of the Asylum, we were almost blinded by the white walls, the building had a faint smell of sanitizers.
"Hello…" I said to the receptionist, "I'm Hyuuga Hinata."
"Why hello there miss Hyuuga." She said, something about her smile unnerved me, I wanted to hide behind Sakura or Ino but they had already left.
"I-i-I'm here to help out as a junior assistant." I stuttered.
The receptionist nodded and typed something on her computer, "Let's see…I'll assign you to Uchiha Sasuke and you will be in charge of Activity Group 14, which is also Sasuke's group."
I nodded and took the paper she held out, on it was directions to the activity rooms, the room I was supposed to go was encircled. "Thank you." I said and walked through the quiet, white walls of Green Leaf Asylum.

I opened the door labeled, AR 14 and looked around, the room was white like everything and it had tables and chairs, it was like a mini classroom, then I spotted my charges…they were the same age as me……oh great….
