Love Triangle

Chapter 3 - 'who are You...?'

The boys sat on the dining table, while us girls went to help aunt Ino, we helped with putting the dishes on the table. We all sat on the table, until the door bell rang. Aunt Ino went to open it, then she hugged someone, and that person entered, he was uncle Sai, Inojin's father.

" oh! Hello kids! " he said with a warm smile.

" let's eat " aunt Ino said dragging uncle Sai to the table. Then he started studying everyone on the table.

" Hima! I haven't seen you throw the whole summer break " he said.

" yeah. We went to our summer house " I said smiling.

"....Yulu...something us different... Your hair " he questioned.

" it was a dare " Yulu said with a sigh.

" ... Shikadai, how are you doing? "

" fine thank you "

" oh! I see new faces! "

" yeah, this is Luceya, and that is Tonekai " I said pointing at them.

" hello Luceya, hello Tonekai. You both can call me uncle Sai " he said with a closed eyes smile. They both nod, but then uncle Sai's face posed at Tonekai, and he started studying his face.

" you look... So familiar " he said, then Tonekai's eyes widened a bit.

"... What do you mean?"  he asked. Looking away.

"... Hmmm... It can't be, I must be misremembering you with someone else " uncle Sai said with a warm smile, then continued eating.

We finished eating and thanked aunt Ino for having us. Shikadai, Luceya and Yulu walked to the direction of their houses, 'cause they live in the same neighborhood. And I was about to walk until Tonekai stopped me.

" you can't walk home alone at this hour. I will escort you " he said holding my wrist. I blushed a little at this sudden action, but then nodded and we both started walking. My house wasn't very far anyways. While we were walking, I had this thought in my head, about why Tonekai why was staring at me like this, he just acts like nothing happened throughout the whole day. I couched to get his attention.

" Tonekai... Umm... I... Want to... Ask you something... " I said.

" hm? "

" wh-why.... Why-where-you-staring-at-me-today?! " I asked so fast. He was silent for a moment.

"... No reason..."

" what?!?! " I asked while stopping and looking at him " something is wrong. You have a very strong reason that you would just stare at me so clearly, that you got into a fight because of that " I shout getting my face a little closer to him, then he used his palm and pushed my face away.

" personal space is really important to me " he said as he looked down while closing his eyes, I gave him a frustrated look, then he started walking. I sighed and walked beside him.

...

" this is where I live... " I said after our heart to heart walk, sarcasm noted. Then he pointed to a house a few blocks away.

" this is where I live " he said shoving his hands in his pockets " se'ya " he said while smiling a sweet smile. I smiled back then entered my house.

" I'm home~ " I said as I closed the door behind me. Then a few light steps were heard, and mom appeared, and she looked very worried.

" Himawari... Please come quick " she said.

" what's wrong? " I said before I was dragged to the living g room. There sat a zoned out Boruto.
