Naruto's Endless Pretense

After visiting the shrine where the god of thunder was built, Sasuke and Temari were forced to go shopping on the street by Hanabi.

Although he was frightened by the unknown lot drawn in the shrine and the name of the God of Thunder, Sasuke would not admit too much to the unscientific setting of fate.He shook his head and threw these troubles behind him.

Shopping with Temari was originally what he had planned for the holiday.Although Hanabi's joining was a bit unexpected, it also prevented him from feeling overwhelmed when the two of them were alone.In a sense, Sasuke was not disgusted with cutting him open like this.

But Sasuke doesn't quite understand what girls think.But looking at Temari's expression as she ate the meatball soup mixed with octopus, you can probably understand that it was a very complicated emotion.

Ninja Village is a village composed almost entirely of ninjas and ninja families, and almost all industries belong to ninja families.After the Third Ninja War, many civilians entered the ninja village to do business and buy properties.But in terms of total number, the commercial streets are still the stores of major families.

Shopping with Temari is equivalent to saying to your familiar companions in disguise, "Ah la ah la, that's right. This is my girlfriend, don't you envy me?".Even with the fireworks, it still had the feel of a public execution.How should I put it, Sasuke's mood was quite subtle.

Because eating was prohibited inside the shrine, Sasuke and the other three went out to have lunch at the very famous Choji family restaurant, and then stopped by the Ino family's flower shop for a while.After experiencing mental torture, the three finally arrived at the new commercial street where they didn't have many acquaintances.

This was a street that was rebuilt after the village was destroyed by the Konoha Collapse Plan. It was almost entirely composed of civilian shops.It was also the new attraction Sasuke had always wanted to take Temari to see.

According to Tsunade, promoting the proportion of the civilian economy in the shinobi village economy can effectively promote economic development under a peaceful system.Sasuke didn't understand this very well, but the sight in front of him at this moment really made people feel comfortable.

Pushing onto the reconstructed wide street, the glazed road is paved with new floor tiles.The streets are lined with unfamiliar yet neat evergreen trees, making people feel green and full of life even as winter approaches.Perhaps this is also an external manifestation of the will of fire.

"I finally breathed a sigh of relief. The girl's gaze just now was really dazzling. It seemed like I had a good discussion with her."

Temari crossed her arms and stood behind with Sasuke, watching Hanabi and the aunt selling marshmallows talking eagerly.

"Well, I guess there's no chance. She didn't successfully advance to the Chunin Exam. Maybe it's because some idiot didn't even pass the first preliminaries." Sasuke laughed awkwardly with a dark face.

The girl Temari was talking about was Ino, who failed to advance to the chunin exams because of Shikamaru.The route Sasuke chose was really because he wanted to know the situation of Ino and Choji along the way.But seeing as Ino can still ignore the business of the flower shop and tear her off with Temari, it probably won't be a problem.

probably.

"Then tell me honestly, what's going on between you and her?"

Temari's eyes sharpened.Hanabi could see Ino's superficial love for Sasuke.

"No, just an ordinary student." Sasuke replied calmly. "It's been a day since we left. Let's take a break while Hanabi buys candy."

As he spoke, Sasuke pointed to the wooden armchair beside the street and sat on it first.Walking with two girls in kimono in the ninja village, even if they were not acquaintances, they would look at them with curiosity and envy, which made Sasuke accumulate a lot of fatigue.

"Really, you really don't look like a man like this."

Temari muttered, but followed in two steps and sat next to Sasuke.The two of them just watched Hanabi not far away staring at the marshmallows in the stove with white eyes that almost glowed with red pupils.Maybe it's because Hanabi doesn't always get this kind of satisfaction in the Hyuga family, which has strict upbringing.

"Hey."

Temari sighed deeply and then turned her gaze to the distance.The afterglow of the setting sun over there has stretched the shadow of the Hokage Rock.

"What's wrong?" Sasuke asked strangely.

"

It’s nothing, I just lamented my bad luck.It doesn't matter if you go to a shrine or go shopping. "

Temari turned her head to the side and her voice gradually became lower.

"What a troublesome little devil! I obviously made the appointment in advance, but wouldn't the whole day pass like this? I still thought that we could spend such a leisurely time just for the two of us."

The last sound was as thin as a mosquito, but it was still keenly captured by Sasuke.If this is not Naruto World, but some young romantic comedy, I will definitely not be able to hear it.

In that case, there will definitely be a heart-pounding scene like "What did you say - no, nothing - turned away blushing".Or maybe you can pretend not to hear and this expected scene can happen.

But Sasuke didn't do that, and Temari wasn't the kind of girl who would blush whenever she said it.

"Don't take it so seriously. Just treat it as a drill, right?"

Sasuke mustered up the courage to take Temari's hand.

"Perform, practice?"

"Ah, that's right. One day I will bring my children to celebrate Children's Day."

"You, you mean?"

"Ah, that's right!"

Without words, the two of them just stared blankly at the fireworks not far away.With the scene of the future printed in her mind, Temari's face gradually burned.

Hanabi is a precocious and strong ninja, but she also has an innocent and cute childishness and a girl's love for sweets.After taking the marshmallow from the aunt's hand, the way they tore it apart like a hamster made both of them smile.

"Ah, there's really nothing I can do about you. Let's do it this time. You must use the whole day to make up for me tomorrow. I promised you to follow my arrangements for the whole day."

"……Um."

Agreeing slightly guiltily, Sasuke stared at Temari's lovely face.

I just manually avoided a romantic comedy situation, but I couldn't help but act in such a clichéd plot.It really sucks.But for some reason Sasuke felt that everything fell into place. If this is a bad drama, it must be a classic that cannot fade away.

Because comedies like love will definitely happen as long as humans still exist.

"Num, this is for you."

Sasuke took out a bag from the psychic chart and handed it to Temari.

"Is this... Temari?"

Temari took out the items from the bag, and the blush on her face immediately turned into an inexplicable look.

The Temari here is a toy similar to a handball, but smaller and also carries the wish for blessing.It's just that her name happens to be the same as Temari's.

"That is why ah?"

"Well, it's because I wanted to see how I would react to giving this to you a long time ago."

Sasuke touched his head and laughed, but was hit squarely with a ball by Temari.When he came back to his senses, he found Temari looking at him with complicated and regretful eyes.

"What? I thought it had some special meaning."

"What? What else could it mean?"

Sasuke felt a little out of tune.

"Hey, Sasuke-kun. Let's go now! It's getting dark!"

Unfortunately, Hanabi was urging me again.Children's wishes must always be fulfilled. There was no other way. Sasuke could only be dragged by Hanabi to stand up and stagger forward.

Temari watched from behind silently.The brilliance of the sunset lit up the sky in the distance into orange, and an inexplicable worry burned in my heart.

On the slopes dyed red by the setting sun, only the silent swaying heat waves responded.

Even if it’s autumn and winter.
