VIII.
41. Breathe Again
He could not do it without her.
42. Vacation
"Apparently, it's not found in Daddy's dictionary."
43. Creation
He could settle for two. He already knew they were going to be beautiful.
44. Trouble Lurking
Secretly, he loves it. Especially, with tight orange hot pants.
45. Cat
To capture one is a rite of passage to C-rank missions.
46. Mischief Managed
"That was... whoa."
"I know..."
47. Multitasking
Another word for the Shadow Clones Technique.
48. Annoyance
"Hn."
49. Abandoned
She was a tenacious girl. "I could have saved Daddy, if I held on longer. I knew I could have."
50. Drink
Minato nearly died of brain aneurysm the moment he stepped into his daughter's room and found pieces of male clothes scattered on the bed, a familiar purple jacket hanging from the ceiling fan and three pairs of naked legs poking out of the closet.
51. Through the Fire
"And who's idea was this again?"
"I already said I'm sorry! You don't have to yell!"
"Who's going to hear? If you haven't noticed, we blew up an entire castle!
"Just shut up!"
"You're the one who couldn't shut your trap even if it's to save your ass!"
52. Rainbow
She once drew a rainbow. She imagined that the other end would lead her to a mother she never knew.
53. Safety First
"I'm not even going try explaining this to you. Just don't get killed, deadlast."
54. Under the Rain
He was cold and empty. But her arms were warm. So he stayed in her embrace.
55. Tower
A couple of years ago, it had been a great idea to lock her up. That was a couple of years ago.
56. Foreign
Seeing no remorse in his eyes had been more devastating than having his hand through her chest and out the back.
57. Out Cold
At least, she could practice her artistic skills on his face.
58. 67%
"So what? You think seppuku is going to solve that?"
"..."
"You're an idiot!"
59. Precious Treasure
She held too many. Sometimes, it makes him think if there is still a space for him to return to.
60. Drowning
Everywhere, he burns her. Exciting. Enticing.
She holds him in place and he could not help be overwhelmed.
