She's My Everything

12

She stood in front of the mirror watching how the dress fitted her. "Ummmmm...."

"So?" Shion said in a tired tone. "Tell me this is the one Sakura..."

"It's ni-" Sakura said before Ino turned to the sales person.

"Excuse me. Can you get me another dress? This one looks too plain and it makes her look way too flat!" Ino said in a sassy tone.

"Miss Yamanaka, not to be rude but....she isn't that...." the sales woman said as Sakura turned around in anger, knowing very well at what exactly she referred.

"What I am or not, isn't your business. Now, would you please go and find me a dress that fits me well or do I have to talk to the manager?" Sakura said with a fake smile as Ino crossed her arms and chewed her gum.

All while Shion continued drinking her iced tea. "You better do what she says."

The woman moved away while Himawari continued watching everything.

"So, how exactly did he proposed you?" Ino asked.

"Well it was kinda funny" Sakura replied with a giggle. "He had come a long way since  his rogue days at school."

"What do you mean? He wasn't that caring back then?" Shion asked with curiosity.

"It was worse! Back then he didn't even dared to pay her attention. He was an asshole with everyone but-" Ino said as she sensed Sakura's cold glare. "How about you say it Sakura?"

"He had problems back then. It was another time and he needed help. It was hard for me but eventually we grew up closer. And he proposed me two weeks ago, after helping Naruto and Hima."

She smiled for herself, remembering how nervous he was. "He made dinner at my house..."

"WAIT SO THE MIGHTY UCHIHA KNOWS TO COOK?!?!" Ino and Shion yelled in surprise.

"And he's really good, actually. It was really romantic."

"Huh...who would’ve thought that he could be this romantic? He really has changed.....I guess he really wants to build a new family." Ino said.

Sakura nodded in agreement before noticing a beautiful crown full of white flowers and diamondsbeing picked up by Himawari.

"This is really pretty" she said as she put it on. "Hey, how do I look?"

The three young girls looked at Himawari and squealed in excitement. Ino took her phone out like crazy and started taking pictures.

"Omg!!! Naruto will love this!!" Ino said. "Girl you better be a supermodel!!"

"What's that?" Himawari said.

"Ino, you know that's a harsh world for someone like her" Sakura said. "They will take advantage of her beauty."

"But come on!!!" Ino complained as the woman came with a new dress. "Oh here she is."

Then the three girls watched the dress and got carried away while Himawari continued playing with the little crown. Then out of the blue she froze.

She couldn't speak.

She couldn't hear.

She couldn't move.

She felt her arms trembling as she dropped the crown to the ground, gaining the attention of Shion who casually turned around to check on her.

"Himawari? Are you alright?" She asked as Himawari didn't replied. "Himawari?"

"...."

"Honey are you okay? Tell me something please.."

"....."

Shion got worried and turned to Sakura and Ino. "Girls! Himawari needs help."

"What?!?" Ino asked as Sakura suddenly went to check on her.

"Hima? Hima look at me" she said as she tried to check her. But she didn't answered. "Shion help me pick her up and take her to the car while I change. Ino, call Naruto."

I ran like a maniac and entered the hospital looking for Sakura. "SAKURA-CHAN!!! SAKURA-CHAN!!!!"

"Shut up Naruto!! This is a hospital!" Sasuke said while I ignored him. I was scared, Himawari was in danger.

Then I saw Ino wave her arms to make me notice her. "Naruto! Over here!"

I rushed to where she was and I noticed Shion was there. "What happened?!?! Where is she?! Why-"

"We went with Sakura to look for her wedding dress. She was doing okay but suddenly she froze!" Ino said as Shion intervened.

"Naruto-san Sakura's already taking care of her. She said this attacks are very common so is something we should expect."

"Where's Hima? Where is she I need to see her dattebayo!!" I yelled in desperation while Sasuke hold my shoulder. "Get off me! I need to see her now!"

"Naruto wait!" Ino tried to say but I walked past her. Shion and Sasuke ran after me.

But then Sakura got out of the room and I stopped. "Sakura-chan, is she...?"

"Calm down Naruto. She's doing fine now. She had a neurological attack. That's all." She said I n a serious tone.

"The neurowhat?!"

The pinkette sighed. "Her brain stopped working properly for a while due to her condition. As a result she couldn't control or understand her body's reaction. I suggest that she'll stay here for a while, until she wakes up and then we can examine her better."

"Stay? But how? How many days?!"

"We don't know for sure..."

"For sure?!?! Sakura how am I going to pay for that?!?! Health care is extremely expensive! I barely have any job or money to survive!" I said while rubbing my heard in frustration.

Shion bit her lip as she heard me yell in desperation. She shut her eyes for a while and took a long breath. "I can take care of her."

"What?" I said.

"You heard me. I can arrange to take care of her now that I have less classes to give for now." Shion said.

"But how?!?!  I'm her father and I'm supposed to know everything about her dattebayo! Who really knows Hima-chan anyways!" I said before hearing a female voice I haven't heard in a long time.

"Well I do" she said as I turned around to see a tall, redheaded girl with glasses. She had a  dark dress covered with a big, brownish jacket, a pair of heels and a huge purse.

I looked at her on shock until I realized that this in fact, wasn't a dream.

"Karin...." I said.
