8. The Changes

>>>>> in previous chapter>>>>

As if on cue, the Hokage finally turns his chair around and faced the young maiden. And what she saw was immensely shocking that will traumatize her for life.

There, on the Hokage's chair, sitting behind the desk, in the Hokage office, was none other than the Uzumaki Naruto. The love of her life...

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

His body looks more muscular, and his face seems more shaped with all the seriousness and matured appears clearly on it, and there's aren't any trace of goofiness could be found on his face.

Few seconds have past as the room grew quiet. Hinata couldn't seem to believe what she's seeing, and was still speechless. The only word cross through her mind was...

'Naruto-kun is the Hokage. Naruto-kun is the Hokage. Naruto-kun is the Hokage. Naruto-kun is the Hokage.'

That seems to have continue for a minute as he finally decided to break the silence.

" Well?" He looks at her with hard steely eyes

That startled her. Then she thought...

'Naruto-kun..has changed.. he's so cold toward me... he became Hokage, that actually made me glad, though.

So he finally reached his dream..huh.. I..I thought I had changed, too. I was confident infront of Shikamaru-san a few minutes ago, yet infront of Naruto-kun.. I became like my old-self again.. I'm so hopeless, aren't I..'

.........

No.

" I believe you have highly mistaken, hokage-sama"

After a long hours of silence, i finally raise my voice. Naruto-kun seems shocked since I never object him before, and Shikamaru-san seems to be enjoying watching this situation.

" Am I?"

" With all due respect, it is true that hokage-sama and I had 'a little quarrel' before I went on my journey. But that does not even have the slightest effect on my decision, since my main purpose of this 'little adventure' was to prepare myself to be a better heiress, to my clan."

There, I finally did it. I've always wanted to be confident, especially infront of Naruto-kun, since I was always been a burden to him. And in this few months, I've worked so hard for it. And I am not going to blow it away.

Shikamaru-san snickered quietly. Naruto-kun seems unhappy. And I tried to keep myself from falling apart as the debate keeps going.

After an hour later...

I success as I keep myself from falling apart infront of Naruto-kun. However, it seems to make Naruto-kun even more furious... 😢 a whole hour as I tried so hard to look directly into his ocean deep, furious blue eyes were really, really, reallyyy scaryyyyy 😭😭😭

But I managed somehow. But he won anyway. He promised he would send me on long mission, to compensate for my time left on my journey.

And right now, I am walking back to my compound, meeting my family after a long time..

+++++++++++++++++++++++++

At the Hokage's office..

*snickered snickered *

" Stop it Shikamaru, it's not funny."

" ..ahahaha, I can't believe she would stand up to you like that! Oh wow.. I knew she had changed the moment I saw her at the gate, but I thought she would definitely return to her old-self infront of you.. I guess my caculation was wrong after all." Shikamaru laugh

Naruto sigh. He looks back to where she had stand few minutes ago. To tell the truth, the reason he turn his chair backward was to prevent him from running to her and hug her out of her dear lives.

He missed her. He missed her when she was gone. He really have missed her that he couldn't do anything for the previous month, even when his friends came to comfort him and encourage him.

Why Hinata.. Why..

" Hey, didn't you said you have to visit her this afternoon?"

" Oh, oh yeah. *sigh*... I guess I better get going. "

" You better hurry or else she would probably kill you. She's on short tempered recently. Probably the hormones.."

Naruto shuddered.

" Yeah yeah.. See ya then."

He walk out the door after that.
