8: Promise

Tsura: ho...hoishi desu!!

Hoishi = delicious.

Kakashi: well I think so too even if you don't say it.

She takes a deep breath and breathes slowly...

Kakashi: Tsura?

She continues to breathe slowly...

Kakashi: daijobu?

She finally look into his eyes and said "I saw that you were angry. Did I do anything to make you angry?" And she immediately looks away, darting her eyes around and just avoiding eye contact. Her breathing starts to accelerate.

Kakashi pov:

What did I just do... I made her panic. She thinks she did something wrong. I walked to behind her and gave her a good squeeze " Tsura" I said softly to her ear.

Her breathing starts to go back to normal " hai?"

Kakashi: I was just jealous.

Tsura: go... gomenasai!! Best friend!! Itachi!!

Kakashi: I know. That's why I was jealous. More than anyone, he's probably the only one who heard your voice the most till now.

Tsura: .... gomen.

Kakashi: I know I'm being a bit impatient... but I wished to be the first person to hear Tsura's voice most times than others. It's ok. I'll wait.

She turned around to face me and hugs me " Kakashi."

Kakashi: hm?

Tsura: I... am scared. *Squeeze* scared that you will reject what I say. So I keep quiet. I don't want you to go.

I see... she was trying to be really careful with me.

Tsura: you won't go right? If I... accidentally anger you... or say something you don't like...

I cup her head " I might leave through the door, but I won't choose to never come back. I'll always come back. "

Tsura: yakusoku?

Kakashi: yakusoku.

Yakusoku= promise.

Kakashi: I'll walk you home.

She shakes her head with a smile.

Kakashi: it's ok. I'm already at my door. I'll just lock the door and come with you.

She shakes her head again and whispers to me " oyasumi." I cup onto her head gently before she could leave and whispers back" oyasumi."

She nods her head and leaves.

What a good night. Today Tsura spoke a lot of words to me. I even made a promise with her.
