I'm His Sister

Chapter 23

Umi's POV

A few days later

I, being very unfortunate, am waking up and getting ready for the party that's in a few hours, but I don't complain, I just complain about mornings, like usual.

"Babe, why are you up? Hana said she was taking care of the dogs this morning?" Kiba asks half asleep.

I walk into the bathroom and I hit my head on the wall a few times, on purpose. "THIS SUCKS! IT'S GONNA TAKE ME FOREVER TO GET READY!" I yell annoyed as I look at everything I laid inside here last night.

"Babe, are you ok?" Kiba asks on the other side of the door.

"No, I'm gonna poke my eye out while trying to get ready, this sucks, I just wanted to spend all day reading, 1 day out of the entire year, I get to myself, I don't understand why people celebrate getting old, that's depressing!" I say crossly and I hear Kiba laughing on the other side of the door.

"This day is special to most ninja because a lot of them don't live past 30 due to being a shinobi, the most dangerous job in the world is what we do every day." Kiba says to me.

I just shower and I put the dress on, it's a open back dress that ties in a knot at the top and has a black top and a cream colored lace as the bottom with a cream skirt under the lace and the lace trails a bit, it only goes down to the back of my knee's while the sleeves are just like tank top sleeves.

"This is so much work, I feel like I'm going to a wedding as a brides maid." I say as I put in some volume cream in my hair, actually a lot, my hair is long and thin. I blow dry my hair and I brush it out again and I do a waterfall braid with my hair, leaving my bangs out.

"You could have knocked me out and then Naruto, and you could be reading right now, but you didn't." Kiba reminds me and my eye twitches.

"Are you trying to provoke me right now Kiba? My stomach is influencing my attitude at the moment and I haven't eaten yet." I say to Kiba.

"I could make us some breakfast." Kiba says to me.

"NO!" I yell while Akamaru and Coco bark in protest at him.

"My cooking doesn't suck that bad, does it?" Kiba asks.

"I'm gonna be blunt, yes, it sucks, not even a racoon would eat it and they eat everything." I say to Kiba through the door.

"So harsh." Kiba says and I can tell he's sulking.

"There will be food at the party that Hinata made and a few others, it should be good." I say and I put on some lip gloss and eye liner, while trying not to poke my eyes out. "Gah, I'm gonna poke my eye's out doing this!" I exclaim and I finish.

"Doing what?" Kiba asks me.

"Sakura and Ino wanted me to wear some eyeliner and lip gloss, they said it would go great with my dress, I could care less about make up though and fashion, I just want to wear my pajama's, I swear, guys get to just put on a shirt and pants and they're done, you guys are so lucky, us women have to put on make up, and a dress, it's a pain because we nearly poke our eyes out while doing all this, not to mention we have to put in extra care to our hair. There's much more to our pain, but almost every woman I have met, enjoys this crap. I don't understand it, ugh, I just want to sit in a corner and sulk." I say and Kiba laughs.

"I bet you still look beautiful." Kiba says through the door.

I mentally sulk.

This sucks!

'I enjoyed dressing up for events when I was still alive.'

That's because back then, everything wasn't the 20th century and back then, everything was much more complicated, so whenever events came up like this, women dressing up was a relief from fighting.
