Sakura: Sasuke-kun! Welcome back!(SMILE)
Sasuke: !
Sasuke: ...What happened to your face? Sakura: ! Hehe... Sakura: I made a blunder during a mission
-----------
Sasuke: You're a medical ninja, aren't you? You should have healed that yourself...
Sakura: ....
Sakura: There were quite a number of injured people I had to attend to, and I just returned a while ago...
Sakura: I'll be wasting time if I heal myself and I wanted to meet you as soon as possible
Sakura: That's why, I thought I can just heal it later since it's not that serious
Sakura: Besides, today's the day of your return...
Sakura: But my number one reason is Sakura: I want to say "Welcome back" to you
----------- Sakura: Though I look a little uncool...! (hehe)
Sasuke: ...
Sasuke: Are you stupid? *poke* Sakura: Ow!
Sasuke: You aspire to be a medical nin, don't you? If you can't take care of yourself properly, then you still have a long way to go to worry about other people
Sakura: O~uch ouch! Even so, my skills are acknowledged!
Sasuke: Still, you're a hundred years early to worry about me
Sakura: But~ it's for my self- satisfaction...
Sasuke: Anyway... never mind, I'm coming in...
Sakura: Ah! Wait, let me do that. Okay...!
Sasuke: Don't pull
----------- Sakura: Ah, go take a bath, I'll make food
Sasuke: ?
Sasuke: You... were you listening to me?
Sasuke: Your wounds come first...
Sakura: I'm okay! Sakura: I'll heal myself while cooking! Sasuke: .....
Sakura: Fua~~ ----------- Sakura: As expected, taking a bath relieves exhaustion~!
Sasuke: Yeah...
Sakura: Sasuke-kun's here today, too, that's the greatest cure for me...
Sasuke: Sakura Sasuke: You... treasure yourself more Sasuke: You're strong. But you might make mistakes if you overestimate your abilities and put your well-being later
Sasuke: Like a while ago...if I'm important to you...treasure yourself
Sakura: *laughs* Sakura: Sasuke-kun, you're not so straightforward
Sakura: Thank you...for worrying about me
----------- Sasuke: ...! Look here, you... Sasuke: !
Sakura: I was just injured Sakura: There's something I have decided
Sakura: Like the things I have to carry from here on...
Sakura: Sasuke-kun, you accepted me Sakura: and wished to be with me Sakura: so the things I can do with all I can---
----------- Sakura: I Sakura: want to do the "ordinary" with Sasuke-kun
Sakura: The usual ordinary things Sakura: Since it's ordinary, there are many people who don't realize it but,
Sakura: those "ordinary" things are really the important ones. Both you and Naruto taught me that
Sakura: like knowing that you have a family when you come home from faraway through a dark road, or there's light in your home
Sakura: or a warm meal Sakura: or prepared bath when you come home
----------- Sakura: That's why I wanted to be the first one to greet you "Welcome home"
Sakura: That's what I can do best Sakura: I guess that shows my determination of not making you feel alone
Sakura: There might be hard missions, like the one today, but...! But, I
wanted to see you even just for a bit.
(Sakura: Sasuke-kun, welcome home)
Sakura: I've decided Sakura: I will never let you be alone. It's my promise of a lifetime
Sakura: That's why I will live longer than you
Sakura: We'll grow old together, and even when it's the end of our lives, I won't let you be alone. I'll stay by your side until you die and watch over you
----------- Sakura: Saying it's ordinary...and I won't let you be alone...
Sakura: Was that a bit impertinent of me...?
Sakura: ?
----------- Sakura: UUUH~~~ Sakura: Sa-Sasuke-kun~ Sakura: I love you~ Sasuke: !
Sakura: I told you before that I like you so so much but
Sakura: right now... Sakura: I love you so much, much more it's unbearable...!
----------- Sasuke: I see... Sasuke: that's promising
Sakura: I think I can kiss him on the cheeks now...!
*kiss* Sasuke: ... ----------- Sakura: Umph?!
Sakura: Sasuke-kun Sakura: Don't suddenly turn your head---!
Sasuke: Sakura, thank you
----------- Sakura: You're welcome
Welcome home I'm home Thank you I'm sorry Good morning Good night
Doing the ordinary things everyday, with you--
************ (from page 20)
Sasuke: Sarada, yes, look closely Sasuke: it's the center...look
Sasuke: Oh
----------- Sarada: Papa! I hit the bad kitty! Sasuke: You did, well done Sasuke: You improved, that's impressive Sarada
Sasuke: Mama will be happy, too. Good job
Sarada: Hehehe Sarada: Ah! Sasuke: ?
Sarada: Look~ Sarada: It's kuma-san (teddy bear)! Woofwoof! Sarada: roar!
-----------
Sasuke: I can't tell if that's a bear or a dog
Sarada: Papa Sarada: Mama Sarada: Sa~ra~da!
Sasuke: ... Sasuke: ...kids have great imagination...
Sasuke: ? Sasuke: What are you doing next?
----------- Sasuke: ...She'll look like Sakura in the future...
Sarada: Here! Sarada: Oninini!
Sasuke: ? Sasuke: Oninini...? Sasuke: ! Sasuke: I see..."Onigiri" Sasuke: ...That’s impressive, Sarada
Sarada: Papa! Next is upsy upsy! Sasuke: There's more...?
Sarada: Kyaa~ Reach~! Sasuke: Don't fall
Sasuke: She easily changes what she wants to play...
Sarada: Papa-! Hug me! ----------- Sasuke: ? What's wrong? Sarada: Papa's eyesy are swirly Sarada: Only this one goes round and round~
Sasuke: ...are you scared?
Sarada: pretty~ i like it~! Sasuke: ...I see Sarada: Papa~ kiss me?
Sasuke: Just once, okay... *kiss*
----------- Sarada: ? Sarada: ... Sarada: Not on the lips? Sasuke: ?! Sasuke: Where did you see that...? Sarada: Mama's tevi! Sasuke: TV, huh... Sasuke: The afternoon dramas Sakura often watches...
Sasuke: Sarada, not on the lips Sarada: Eh~ Sasuke: Lips are special, it's not something I can easily give
Sasuke: The person who can have it is already decided
Sarada: Papa Sarada: you don't like Sarada?
Sasuke: It's quite difficult to explain it
----------- Sasuke: Sarada...which one do you like? Him or me?
Sarada: Hm~ ...I like you both
Sasuke: I see...then, how do you feel when you’re with us, is it fun or do you get excited?
Sasuke: Try remembering little by little
Sarada: Teddy bear is so soft and feels good, so I like him!
Sarada: But I still like Papa!
Sarada: You play with me and hug me! Sarada: I cry when I get scolded but Papa strokes my hair!
Sarada: I also like teddy bear, but I love Papa!
----------- Sarada: And also Sarada: there’s Mama! Sarada: I feel warm with Mama so I love her!
Sasuke: That's right, there are different ways of "liking"
Sasuke: Kissing on the lips will be for a different person for Sarda
Sasuke: It's just like what you just said
Sasuke: That's why it's not that I hate you
Sasuke: It might still be hard for you to understand now...
Sarada: I understand! ----------- Sarada: Hehehe~ Sarada: When I grow up...can I become pretty like Mama~
Sasuke: ...Ah, sooner or later... Sasuke: That's in the future Sasuke: Sakura will come home soon...let's tidy things up before Mama returns
Sakura: I'm home~!
----------- Sakura: Sasuke-kun, thank you for waiting! I'm sorry!
Sakura: Was Sarada okay? Did she throw a tantrum? -----------
Sasuke: Yeah, no problem. She was tired from playing so she's sleeping now
Sasuke: You must be tired, too
Sakura: No, no! Thank you!
Sakura: It's great that Papa played with you, Sarada~
Sakura: Wah, she's sound asleep...did she play a lot?
Sasuke: Yeah
----------- Sasuke: She looks like you when she's sleeping
Sakura: Eh~? I think she looks more like you~
Sasuke: Also, your sensitivity to love... (Sarada: Kiss--) (Sakura: Sasuke-kun--) (Same scent...)
Sakura: I wonder what are you talking about?
Sakura: She's a girl..! Especially at her age, she's interested in everything
Sakura: They say girls look like their fathers, so I think Sarada will look like Sasuke-kun when she grows up...!
Sasuke: That will be a problem
----------- Sakura: But... Sakura: When Sarada grows up Sakura: I wonder what kind of girl will she be
Sakura: she'll probably grow real fast...
----------- Sakura: Ahhh~ To think that the day I'll see Sasuke-kun doing that came...Looking at you, I can tell that you're a doting parent...! How wonderful!
Sakura: The wife kinda wants that, too...
Sakura: After this, I have to prepare dinner, do the laundry and other chores~
Sasuke: Then, just do those
Sakura: My husband's so cold! I want to be recharged first!
Sasuke: ....
Sasuke: You...never changed Sakura: Hey, I want a forehead kiss like Sarada
Sakura: Here!
Sasuke: ...Only this once
-----------
Sakura: ??!
Sakura: Hey, Sasuke-kun! Wwwwhy? So sudden...!
Sasuke: You asked for it, right?
Sakura: On the forehead! I was shocked when you suddenly kissed me on the lips!
Sasuke: ...I see
----------- Sasuke: In your case, it's here, right?
Sakura: Sha---nnaro----! Sasuke-kun sure knows how to suddenly drop a bomb...!
Sakura: ! Sakura:Sa...!
Sarada: Hnn~
*thump*
----------- Sakura: Thank goodness...she didn't wake up
Sakura: She's really sound asleep Sasuke: Yeah
Sakura: Then, I'll get our laundry
Sakura: How about you? Sasuke: ...I'll stay here for a while...
Sakura: Okay, I'll leave Sarada to you. I want to finish everything before she wakes up
Sasuke: Sure
Sasuke: SAKURA Sasuke: We'll continue...later tonight
