Sakura was jolted awake by the sound of her doorbell. Looking at her clock, she groaned softly but got up. "However rude it might have been, the wake-up call was needed. I have a lot to do to make this house into a home." She mumbled as she got her robe on and headed to the door, leaving Shinobi sleeping on his side of the bed still.
"Sorry to wake you Sakura?" Temari looked shocked. "Yeah. Hey Temari. Come on in. I needed the wake-up call anyway. I have so much to do to this house. You're just in time for tea." Sakura said cheerfully. The siblings came in and Sakura led them to the kitchen. "I'm glad you moved next door to us. That cult that owned this place before you was bad news." Temari said. Sakura laughed lightly. "I heard rumors when I looked at the place. I don't care though. It's mine now and that's all I care about." She replied.
The four adults sat at Sakura's new table and sipped their tea. "You're a doctor right?" Gaara asked. "Yeah. A Trauma Doctor. I'm hoping I get a promotion to Diagnostics any day now." Sakura replied. "Why aren't you at work?" Kankuro asked curiously. Sakura laughed again. "I'm on vacation. Sasuke and I were supposed to go on a trip to Yuki for our anniversary but that didn't work out. Rather than be depressed and go back to work, I decided to use it to get this house in order." She replied. "That's admirable." Gaara said. "Thank you. I try to be the best person I can be no matter the occasion." Sakura replied.
After the tea was gone and Sakura had more on the table, Temari sighed. "We didn't just come here to greet you. I mean that was our original goal until we found out it was you. Now we have to talk seriously. You might not believe what we're about to tell you but please know it's the truth and we have no reason to lie to you." She said. "Alright. I'm pretty open minded." Sakura replied. Temari took a breath and let it out slowly. "We're Witches. And so are you. A powerful one to be sure. You're a Siren-class Witch." She said. "Makes sense. My mother is one as well and so is my grandmother. I come from a long line of Sirens. I only know because all of the Sirens in our family are born with pink hair. Our eye color differs depending on our fathers but that doesn't." Sakura replied. "That went extremely well." Kankuro said. Sakura laughed and nodded. "Don't worry. I know how to control it. I have generations of Sirens to train me after all. Now what are you guys?" She asked. "Well I'm a Wind Witch. Gaara is an Earth Witch and Kankuro is a Gray Witch." Temari replied. "Well Sirens are generally Fire Witches but I happened to luck out and become the first Earth Witch. I think that's due to my dad. Mom was a little disappointed at first because she wanted another Fire Witch. But she got over it." She said. "That's good. We were at a loss on how to get you trained if you were ignorant." Gaara said in relief. Sakura smiled. "Thank you for the concern. You're good friends." She replied.
"Well we have to get going. The café won't open itself you know." Temari laughed. Sakura nodded. "I'll come by for lunch if I remember." She agreed. "Give us your number and one of us will call and remind you that you're only human and have to eat." Temari replied. Sakura laughed and wrote her number down for everyone. "There you go. I'll save yours when you call me." She said. "Sounds good. You should come by for dinner too. We're having witch stew tonight." Temari replied. "I just might. I'd have to leave Shinobi with Tenten again though." Sakura said. "Nah. Cats are welcome at our place. Bring him on by. We'll feed your cat too." Temari replied. "Ok. Thanks." Sakura beamed. "No problem. We'll see you later." Temari replied. The siblings left and Sakura got breakfast started for her and Shinobi.
"Definitely a change for the good." Sakura told Shinobi when he padded into the dining room meowing for breakfast. Shinobi purred and licked Sakura's cheek once before they ate together.
Here's Chapter Five for you. It's not as long as the fourth one because there's no song in it. Sorry. By the way, the song in the previous chapter was Trust and Believe by Keisha Cole. It's a good song.
