Disclaimer: Naruto is not mine neither is the book 1001 Things It Means To Be a Dad by Harry H. Harrison

Being a dad means showing unrestrained joy at the color of her urine.

There was a little problem called hematuria. It was the presence of blood in pregnant women and men. It wasn't a very good sign and no husband wanted to see his wife get it. There are two types to this condition, gross hematuria was visible to the naked eye but another kind, microscopic hematuria required a microscopic exam. So even with no blood being show, Shikamaru still dragged Kiba to the hospital.

"Shika! I thought you said hospitals were too troublesome to be in. And I was in the middle of eating!" Kiba whined in their room as they waited for the exam results.

"I know but I don't want to take any chances." Shikamaru was dying for a cigarette, he quit but now he could see why Asuma smoked. It certainly did help the stress.

"Aww Shika! You really do care." Kiba said.

"Of course, its just that caring is such a drag."

Author's Note: (Warning! Very long apology!)

I know, I'm alive. I was in the middle of writing #35 when my computer suffered a serious crash and only got fixed now. Actually, fixed isn't the right word considering I'm writing this from a new laptop. Even though it isn't the sexy one I wanted. But I'm back to writing fanfiction. Is it on the sexy HP I wanted? No. Will it work to write fanfiction and am I slowly getting attached to it? Yes.

But that's not all. As a special treat to all those who stuck through I have something for you guys. I will be now uploading a new chapter every day of the week. Not just for the first week of my return but intil this fanfic is over.

I will also be continuing work on my two other fanfictions and I have plans for three, maybe four, but definitely three new fanfictions.

See you all tomorrow!
