Chapter 26 - News.

A week later, everything artificially seemed to have returned to normal, however, Hinata realized how delicate the whole atmosphere was. Everyone expected her to throw a fit out of the blue, as she had two days ago, or else she wouldn't speak to anyone, not even Naruto.

Minato and Himari looked very worried about her, but Hinata didn't have the strength to deal with that, not for now.

In the end, after so many flaws within the penal code and laws, Hinata watched Sakura's father reduce Naruto's prison from 30 years to one of 15, with a comfortable individual cell and from that, to five years of service. community for then, the current two months of house arrest, being able to answer all that in freedom.

And Hinata didn't doubt for a moment that Sakura and her father, who seemed to mess with the law a lot more than Hinata thought possible, could have the world in their hands if they wanted to.

Now, Hinata was lying there, looking into Naruto's blue eyes, the one that had a beautiful anklet next to it that kept him from leaving the house and his fingers were braided together as the doctor examined her.

- Everything is fine. he whispered for the third time, stroking her hair. Somehow, he knew how terrified she was with that gentleman groping her for all her injuries. "What do you want to do after this from here?"

Hinata pursed her lips.

- I do not know.

"You think, it just has to be here at home..."

But before Hinata could say anything, the doctor's hands—who she discovered to be the same one who had examined her the day Naruto had brought her from captivity—no longer touched her skin, and the sound of the latex glove being removed crackled through her skin. your room.

"How is she, doctor?"

Hinata couldn't look at the old man, as she knew he was shaking, so she just curled up under the covers and kept quiet.

Naruto squeezed his hand.

- She is fine. Still a little weakened by poor diet, but it's been changing. The body has more weight, more mass. And some of her injuries are getting better, not all. We're going to have to do a little surgery on her rib because it's only now that she's less purple, I could see that

it's gently deepened, nothing that could bring danger to her, as it hasn't cut any layers and won't. The cuts should be treated with the medicine I gave you, in addition to the pain pills, and you should avoid bacteria in the process. Other than that, she'll have no problem getting all her energy back.

Hinata heard Naruto sigh, but she didn't open her eyes to see him.

Listening to that, not to mention all the marks on her body, was already making her crazy and sick, she was tired.

"Thanks for coming, doctor. Naruto thanked her.

"Son, could I talk to you alone for a moment?

— Hmm, of course. — and Naruto kissed her forehead quickly. — I'll be right back, I'm right here at the door, just call me if you need it, all right?

Despite dreading being alone for now, Hinata nodded. No doubt the doctor really needed to talk to him, and she wasn't doing very well anyway.

He didn't get to hear what happened, however, the last thing he understood was a curse.

She didn't know if she fell into a deep sleep or if she just took a short nap, but none of that mattered with her nightmare.
