77 Birth of Hyuga Hanabi part 1...

Konoha…

Park beside Shinobi Academy…

When the twins arrived in the park they saw all their friends in the park included Ino whom Kirito didn't meet after the Sasuke incident and finally all 7 of them are in a single place.

"What a surprise everyone is here at the park. " Naruto said with a smile looking at everyone.

"Yes, it's been awhile since all of we came together like this. " Shikamaru said with a nod.

"Sorry everyone I had some work. " Kirito felt everyone is talking about his absence from the village as the reason for everyone not being together so he decided to apologize.

"Anyway I am hungry let's go eat something. " Choji said with a serious tone she felt hungry after waiting all along.

"Yes let's go I also think we should go somewhere to eat after all the snow started falling suddenly. " Kirito said with a nod.

After they decided everyone left the park when Kirito and Ino suddenly came to a point of walking together closely though Ino wanted to talk with Kirito about something bit because of the incident from before she felt awkward and decided to stay silent.

"As I aspected this sweater looks good on you. " Kirito gave his honest opinion to Ino because he thought she looks more beautiful with the dress he had gifted her.

"Thank you." Ino said with a shy smile looking at Kirito who has a smile on his face when she wanted to ask something important "I was going to ask you… "

"Don't worry I didn't forget about my promise to you. " Kirito said with a proud ile looking at Ino because he is trying to find ways to make Ino's wishes come true though at first, he felt bad for some reason but after not meeting her all this time and putting the idea of Ino liking Sasuke he started to make plan for her to be together with the Uchiha kid and the nad feeling went away pretty soon while completing his missions he didn't have time for such feeling but as a friend he never forgot his promise to her.

Hearing Kirito's proud tone Ino started having a bad feeling as the smile on her face froze as she asked slowly "What are you talking about??? "

"I know you were going to ask me about Sasuke Uchiha and I am happy to tell you I have gathered some important information about him and I think I will be able to gather more information soon and after which I will help you. " Kirito said with a wide smile looking at Ino.

Hearing his answer Ino's feet stopped at the place as she felt extremely sad for some reason as the happiness from earlier of meeting Kirito shattered and released by some fear she didn't understand herself but one thing she understood she lost something very important to her as she thought 'Why do I feel like this??? ' while placing her hand on her heart.

The Moment Kirito stopped his words Hinata called out "Why don't we visit our house mom also wanted everyone to visit our house. "

"Yes, that is a good idea because I want to eat Aunt Hinako's cookies. " Choji said leaking his lips.

Hearing Hinako's name Kirito went toward Hinata leaving behind the frozen Ino alone on the path to ask "How is your mom doing Princess? "

"Mom is fine and she said I will be a big sister by the end of this month isn't it great? " Hinata said with a wide smile looking at Kirito with a proud tone.

"Well that is good news, let's go I want to talk with Aunt Hinako too. " Kirito said with a smile but deep down he was worried because he had a bad feeling for some unknown reason.

"So where are we going?  " Shikamaru asked when they arrived at the road turn from where the road will split.

"We are going to the Hyuga compound. " Kirito said with a nod but he didn't saw Ino in the group as he asked "Where did Ino go!!? " with confusion in his tone.

As they looked around they saw Ino standing a few meters behind like frozen when Kirito felt something is wrong as he went near her to ask "Is there something wrong Ino? " with a caring tone as he puts his hand on her head gently.

Being suddenly coming out from her thought Ino looked at Kirito who just called her with such care and said with a soft tone while shaking her head "No it's fine I am ok. "

Hearing her Kirito gave a sigh of relief as he gives a nod to continue "Good then let's go. " while pulling her by the hand.

Hyuga Compound...

After walking for a few minutes finally, the kids arrived at Hinata's house but when she shouted for her mother for coming back to the home instead of her mother the maid of her house came out.

"It seems you have finally arrived at home Lady Hinata. " Maid said with a smile.

"Why have you come where is, mother? " Hinata asked with confusion because this is the first time for her not being treated by her mother upon returning home.

"Lady Hinako and Lord Hiashi went to the hospital for an emergency." the maid said with a nod.

"Did something happened to Aunt Hinako? " Kirito asked with a serious tone.

"Yes suddenly her health became worse. " Maid replied with some hesitation.

"Then we should go to the hospital. " Kirito said with a serious tone.

"Yes, you are right. " Shikamaru also agreed with him.

With that, they left Hinta's house and Hyuga compound as well.
