Chapter 1 : Gaara & Kankurou
Gaara, Kankurou, and Matsuri walked towards the Hospital room where Temari was being treated after being found unconscious in the middle of the desert near Suna's entrance by a shinobi on patrol. As soon as they opened the door, they saw the figure of Temari who was looking at the hospital window, enjoying the view outside the window.
"Hey, Temari. You've wa-" Kankurou's words stopped when suddenly Temari turned to him and Gaara with sparkling eyes. The girl jumped off the bed and hugged them happily.
"Kankurou, Gaara!!. Have you returned from your mission? Nee-san misses you so much, my sweet little brothers," said Temari.
Gaara and Kankurou were petrified in Temari's arms. Okay, apparently Matsuri was right. Temari is really weird. Since when did they use Nee-san's nickname? And again 'my sweet little brothers!?'. Matsuri looked at the scene in shock.
"Hey, hey!!. What's wrong with you? Are you crazy?" Kankurou snapped trying to escape from Temari's embrace.
No, it's not that he doesn't like being hugged by his sister. But the thing is Temari has never done that before.' Was this the new kind of torture Temari had in mind? ' thought Kankurou while shuddering in horror.
"Temari, are you okay?" Gaara asked quietly.
"What's wrong with you guys? We haven't seen each other in a long time, but you didn't even hug me back? You don't miss me?" Temari asked sadly.
"Long time? Temari, we just parted this morning. Did you hit your head? Let us go!!" Kankurou said again.
"Kankurou....you hate being hugged by me huh? You don't even call me Nee-san like usual. Are you mad at me?" Temari asked while staring with teary eyes.
Everyone in the place was shocked. A Temari cries because they don't want to be hugged and calls her nee-san?. Looks like tomorrow will be the end of the world!
"No-that's not it..." Kankurou tried to explain "It's just that you're acting weird. Temari, you've never hugged us like this and since when did we use the nickname nee-san? is it new kind of torture?" Kankurou asked.
"What do you mean. We've always been like this. Don't you guys always follow me everywhere while calling me 'nee-san, nee-san' like that?" Temari said.
Kankurou and Gaara blushed slightly at the thought of that scene.
"N-no way!" Kankurou denied.
It looks like Temari's head really hit it. Or maybe his sister is currently being hit by a strange jutsu?
"So...you don't want to call me nee-san anymore?" the corner of the girl's eyes was slightly wet.
"I think you should rest, Temari. I'll call the doctor," Gaara said as he tried to release Temari's embrace.
"I am...not sick," Temari muttered under her breath.
Gaara took a deep breath. Holding Temari's shoulders, he sat the girl on the bed.
"Sleep. We'll talk again after you rest, Nee-san," he said.
Temari's eyes lit up with joy and Kankurou and Matsuri covered their mouths in surprise.
"Okay...you don't want to call me Nee-san?" his eyes stared at Kankurou.
Gaara looked at Kankurou as if to code 'just do it'. Kankurou gulped, he barely spoke.
"A-alright... rest well, N-Ne- Nee-san.."
Temari smiled in satisfaction. She lay down and closed her eyes. Gaara covered her then signaled Kankurou and Matsuri to leave the room. Arriving outside the room, Kankurou immediately shouted in frustration.
"Argh!!! What's with her? She's acting so weird!!" he said.
"I agree with you, she looks a little weird." Gaara agreed with Kankurou's words.
"A little??? You said that a little?? Gaara, she told us to call her Nee san and hug us! Then she also said 'my sweet little brothers', I've never heard Temari say that!" Kankurou shouted in frustration.
"That's not Temari. Oh, could it be that someone disguised themself as her? Or was she hit by a strange jutsu? Or maybe she hit her head with something?" Kankurou spoke all the possibilities he thought of.
"Calm down a bit. I've ordered the doctor to check on Temari's condition. We'll get the report soon," Gaara said calmly.
"Yeah, I guess so," said Gaara.
