"Hikari," I heard my loving husband call out to me. "I'm in the kitchen, Gaara." Before I get ahead of myself. My name is Hikari Onitsuka of the Sand. I used to be a kunoichi and medical ninja of the village hidden in the leaves. I married the Kazekage of the Sand Village, also known as Gaara of the desert. It's funny how everyone used to hate him for being the jinchuriki of the sand spirit. Now he's the most respected ninja in the entire sand village.

"I've been looking everywhere for you, little tiger," he whispered in my ear while wrapping his arms around my waist. "I was just washing dishes, my love. When did you get back? I thought you were going to be at the office for a few more hours." He leaned his head onto my shoulder. "Normally, when you're washing dishes, you're thinking of something. You want to tell me what is on your mind now?" I dried my hands off, then turned around and wrapped my arms around his neck. "I was only thinking of how we got to where we are now. If I'm being honest, how we got here is kind of a bittersweet story." He raised his head and looked at me, " why would you say that," he asked. "I say that because everything you've gone through. Everything we've gone through it wasn't all good but not all bad either, remember?" He looked towards the ceiling, then looked at me and smiled.
