The moment they arrived at the apartment, they saw Neji waiting at the door and seems furious
"Why do you come home this late?"
"Im sorry Neji nii san we j-"
Sasuke cut off Hinata
"We just wander in the streets, no need to worry..."
"Hmp—"
Neji turned around and walk towards the couch "by the way, have you eaten your dinner?"
"Y-yes.... thanks for your concern Neji niisan..."
Said Hinata who vowed her head after she removed her shoes
"I guess, i will go sleep at the Uchiha mansion for tonight..."
Saith Sasuke slowly hanging his bag besides the hanger beside the door
"Hinata can you hand me a Jacket and scarf?"
"sure..."
Hinata went to grab Sasuke's Scarf and one of his Jacket
"Please take care Sasuke kun..."
"I will." Sasuke muttered as he leave
Meanwhile Itachi on the other side have called Sakura to the Uchiha Mansion
As Sakura arrived at the mansion,one of the maids hastily lead her to Itachi 's office
Knock knock
"It's me Sakura..."
"Come in..."
Sakura opened the door and directly walk towards Itachi's desk "i have fullfilled Your order Itachi...."
"Spit it out.. " Said Itachi who was doing his Paperworks
"Well... she said that she and Naruto are just strangers and she also said that she is comfortable with him...."
Sakura placed a USB at Itachi's desk "here...i record it, listen for your self."
Itachi grabbed the USB and placed under his desk "thanks..." he then continue his paperworks
"Ummm Itachi... may i ask you something?"
"What?"
"Why are you doing this? I mean why do you want Naruto and Hinata to be close to each other?"
"Well... just an unfinished business..."
"Unfinished business... do you mean that Naruto and Hinata have past together?"
"As expected from the top agent of the Rank Fs..."
"But Itachi... how can they have a past together if they don't even remember each other, Naruto seem to be his usual self and nothing odd and he is not telling me about Hinata or him, and Hinata is not odd. ... i guess, i mean its clear that Hinata have a crush on Naruto but u can't read in her face or reactions that she know Naruto..." She rub her chin continuing "that's odd...they can't recognize each other..."
"Remembering and recognising are different, Sakura..."
"So... that means that they remember their past but they just don't recognize each other!!!!"
"Exactly...."
'What a smart kid.'
"But to think... it's still odd Itachi..."
"Yeah.... that's why i want you to make a way to get them close to each other and help them recover their memories together...."
"Unnnn.... but you know what Itachi, it's going to be hard to do that since your little brother is getting in the way..."
"I'll take care of him..."
"Say it... what are you planning?!"
A voice came in from outside the office that startled both Sakura and Itachi
That voice...
"Its, Sasuke...." muttered Itachi
The door was slightly open so Sasuke could hear the conversation of Sakura and Itachi, he kicked the door that lead it to break down "Onii chan... what are you really planning?!!!!!" Basing on Sasuke's face, he look furious. He paced towards Itachi and punched his desk
"Calm down Sasuke..." Itachi stood up from his chair "i just want Hinata and Naruto to be together again, just like before..." "sakura please leave us alone..." muttered Itachi
"Okay..." Sakura hurriedly leave the office with only Sasuke and Itachi left
"BEFORE?!!!! ARE YOU CRAZY?!!!" Sasuke calque his body in the desk as he grab Itachi's collars with his two hands "WE WITNESSED HOW HINATA SHRED TEARS
BECAUSE OF THAT JERK THEN NOW YOU'RE SETTING THEM UP!!!
Itachi drag Sasuke's hands away from his collar "Sasuke... come up to your senses... we didn't even witnessed the whole story about Naruto and Hinata, only the two of them know what happened and only the two of them can fix this..."
"FIX?!!!!! NARUTO DIDN'T EVEN MAKE AN EFFORT TO COME BACK AT THAT TIME THEN NOW, YOU WANT IT TO BE FIX!!!"
"We don't know the whole story Sasuke... the only thing we know is Hinata went to a forest, alone 8 years ago and inside that forest she met a young boy after 2 week of staying in the forest and not coming back, her father decided to go look for her and Toneri together with Kakashi and me just found her lying under the snowing trees.... she didn't bother to tell us every details and if Sai didn't tell us we wouldn't know that the young boy that Hinata met was the son of the couple who adopted him!!! don't get carried away Sasuke... "
"Yeah.... right... Sai was the adopted son of Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki that'd make him Naruto's brother..." he muttered
'The world is so small that the people who adopted my childhood friend was also the parents of the boy whom Hinata fall inlove with...' Sasuke finally calmed his self and get down from the desk as he fix his clothing
"I know its hard Sasuke... but this time... we have no control, and even if you hide Hinata the truth, she will still find out, she is a smart girl after all ... the only thing we can is to help them recognize each other and recover their past..."
"Hmp—" Sasuke crossed his arms as he closed his eyes "i just want to protect her and prevent her from hurting..."
Itachi tapped Sasuke's shoulder as he walk pass him "im not sure whether you're really telling what you feel...."
"Nonsense...."
"Sasuke.... i know the real reason why you don't want Hinata and Naruto to be together.... but if you give Naruto a chance, you'll understand why i want them to be together..."
He then take his leave out of his own office
'The real reason?'
