Aoba patted her head, then looked toward Temari, "Temari, want to go together then?"
Temari, who had just been thinking about how to trick Hanabi into sitting on her lap, froze for a mont.
She hadn't expected Aoba to actually invite her out on a date himself.
"Sure," Temari gladly agreed, she had no reason to refuse.
"So Hanabi is just being taken along?", Hanabi's mood, which had only just recovered, turned sour again.
Aoba smiled and said, "Of course not. I'm inviting both Hanabi and Temari at the sa ti. Hanabi, do you want to co?"
"If you don't, then I'll just have Natsu take you ho first."
"No way, I have to go to school again tomorrow!", Thinking about having to return to school tomorrow, Hanabi had no choice but to agree, then muttered under her breath, "Aoba-nii really is such an irresponsible teacher."
"…", Aoba helplessly rubbed Hanabi's hair. He had only beco her teacher in na at the start anyway, just to lighten this girl's burden a little.
He placed Hanabi into Temari's long-awaited arms, then stood up.
"I'll go wake up Konan-neechan."
Konan had said she was going to take a nap, but she'd ended up sleeping until noon. If she didn't wake up soon, she'd miss lunch altogether.
Aoba simply pushed open the bedroom door and went in.
"Huh? Why is there a barrier again?"
Hanabi stared in confusion at that room, her Byakugan already unknowingly activated.
"Peeking with the Byakugan is very rude behavior, you know," Temari covered Hanabi's eyes, though she knew it was useless.
"You sound just like Aoba-nii!", Hanabi pushed Temari's hand away, glaring at her in dissatisfaction.
"So if you don't want to make Aoba angry, you should shut off the Byakugan," Temari flicked her forehead with a smile.
"Hmph! Aoba-nii would never get mad at Hanabi," Hanabi's face carried a proud look.
Temari's expression turned into a aningful smile, "That's because Aoba just thinks of you as a little kid. Like a younger sister, or even a daughter."
Hanabi's expression froze, then she stubbornly said, "I am Aoba-nii's little sister and disciple."
"Really?", Temari only looked at Hanabi with eyes full of pity.
Hanabi was about ready to bite her.
———
Inside the bedroom, Aoba was completely unaware of the exchange between Temari and Hanabi.
He had only thought about Hanabi's Byakugan, since sothing inappropriate for children might happen soon, he'd simply put up a barrier.
Waking up Konan was completely different from waking Tsunade.
Konan was wrapped tightly in the quilt, only leaving her cute little head exposed.
Aoba poked her cheek with his finger, "Konan-neechan, it's ti to get up and eat lunch."
Konan slowly opened her eyes, lazily gazing up at Aoba, who was leaning over her, "Lunch is ready?"
"Mm, Kin and the others are still preparing it."
Konan stared blankly for a few seconds, "So it's not ready yet?"
"Uh… that's right," Aoba already knew what was about to happen.
Konan lifted a corner of the quilt, revealing smooth jade-like skin, "Co in."
"Lunch will be ready soon."
"It's not ready yet. Stay with a bit longer."
"…"
Aoba climbed under the quilt.
The next second, Konan wrapped her arms around him.
Her soft body twined around his.
"Looks like Konan-neechan doesn't actually want to sleep," Aoba put both arms around her waist as well, feeling her smooth and delicate skin.
Konan shifted her hand's position, "Just for a while."
"There might not be enough ti."
"Then use that ability of yours."
"Konan-neechan, aren't you hungry?"
"Aoba should've brought so dessert before the al, right?"
"Hiss—"
———
Ti passed.
Aoba and Konan walked out of the bedroom together.
Ti really had been a bit tight.
But in Temari and the others' eyes, it had only been a few minutes.
"Is this Hinata's little sister?", Freshly washed up, Konan looked at tiny Hanabi with great delight.
Won always favored this kind of adorable existence.
"My na is Hyuga Hanabi," Hanabi generously introduced herself.
"I'm Konan."
Konan patted Hanabi's head.
Then Hanabi innocently asked, "Konan-neechan, why did you wake up so late?"
Konan paused, then gave a playful smile, "Hanabi, do you want to know?"
"Eh?", Hanabi froze.
Before she could react, Konan laughed again, "Can't tell you. Hanabi is still too little."
"Ah? Oh," Hanabi seed to realize sothing, her little face turning beet red.
Konan looked at Hanabi's cute expression and couldn't help but pinch her cheeks, teasing, "Hanabi, are you already gathering intel for your sister at such a young age?"
"No I'm not!", Hanabi tried to bat Konan's hand away, but not only did she fail, the other cheek was claid by Temari.
She puffed her cheeks.
Why was it that Yugito and the others always treated her nicely, but today she ran into two such difficult won?
———
The lively lunch ended.
"Konan-neechan, do you want to co with us?", Aoba held Hanabi's hand, asking Konan if she wanted to go shopping with them.
Konan looked at Hanabi, then at Temari, and shook her head, "No, you all go. I'll just rest at ho this afternoon."
Although she wanted to go shopping with Aoba too, if it ant babysitting, then forget it.
"Alright then, take a good rest."
Aoba left with Hanabi and Temari.
"Aoba-sama, I'll head back to the clan compound first."
Leaving the Senju estate, Hyuga Natsu prepared to take her leave.
Aoba nodded, "I'll bring Hanabi back before dinner."
"Do I still need to co tomorrow?"
"Mm, for the next few days I'll probably need you to co each ti," Aoba gave her a warm smile.
Hyuga Natsu felt her ears heat up.
'Does that an I would be sleeping in Aoba-sama's bed every day for the next while?'
And faintly, she had already guessed what exactly he was researching, but still found it hard to believe.
'Does the clan head know?'
———
Aoba took Hanabi to the comrcial street, and she was like a mouse falling into a rice jar.
Maybe because she was usually so strictly watched, Hanabi completely let loose on the shopping street, eating everything she could.
Basically anything edible they passed by, she had to try.
By the end, all of Aoba's ti had gone to buying Hanabi food.
Luckily Temari also quite liked Hanabi, and indulged her the whole way.
Finally, the three of them sat together in a dessert shop.
Hanabi leaned against her chair with a scrunched-up face. Aoba sat beside her, placing a hand on her slightly rounded little belly.
He used chakra to help digest the food in her stomach.
"Your belly's already this big, and you still plan on eating?"
Hanabi looked miserable, "Hinata-oneechan eats way more and is fine, so why do I feel awful after just this little?"
