The Secret of My Life
Chapter 12's

Sasuke reached his brother's house at night. A satisfied smile was carved on his lips as if he did not want to fade. He was satisfied with his efforts today. Sei and Naruto are both adorable.

"Why are those self-smiles so Sasuke?"

Sasuke was aghast and soon his face was back in pokerface mode. He looked at Itachi who was in the doorway of his room.

Sasuke forgot to close the door after entering.

"I just remember something funny." Answer's flat. "Have you gone home Aniki?" ask him not to be interrogated again.

"Yes, I have to pick up Hinata and Ryuuto at Father and Mother's house. You take care of the house for a second is okay, right?"

"Eh." Reply to the short sister.

Itachi was still staring intensely at his only brother. "Are you comfortable living here Otouto?"

"Why are you asking?"

"Just want to know."

"I'm not comfortable but just calm down, I'm not leaving." Sasuke said honestly with a smile full of intent on the brother.

Itachi stretched his body. The glasses that perched sweetly on his nose protruded slightly. From earlier his hand was busy opening the document sheet and researching its contents. Today he has to stay at home. His little baby is already asleep—well on the way—which means his duties as a father are over for today so, now it's time to finish the piling up work.

"Itachi-kun?" The long dark blue-blonde woman tilted her head from behind the door.

Itachi smiled in a knot and signaled his wife to enter.

"Will you continue?" ask Hinata. She brought the warm tea that she now puts on the table—away from the important map of the husband.

"A little while." Itachi answered briefly without looking. He was busy with his documents.

Hinata wanted to ask about a lot of things that stuck her mind but it seemed that Itachi was not being able to be discussed right now. "Yes, your tea don't forget to drink. I'll accompany Ryuu to sleep." The wife kissed her husband's cheek briefly.

Itachi. "I'll catch up after this is done."

"Don't work late at night!"

"I understand."

His hand opened the drawer of the work desk and took a 6x9 photo behind the papers stacked in a drawer, tucked away and hidden. A picture of someone who made him the happiest person ever.

"How are you doing now?" Itachi's longing expression always showed when he saw the photo.

"Don't forget your insurance card and hospital card!"

"It's all."

Kushina gives Sei to Naruto after checking that his grandson is warm in full winter clothes. "His stroller's been put in the car?"

"It has. I forgot where my phone is?"

"Try the check on the dinner table."

"okay!" Naruto held Sei while running back into the house.

"Don't run while carrying Sei! Just slow down."

"But he likes me to run, doesn't he Sei-kun?" Naruto slowed his footsteps and patted the little guy's stocky butt.

Sei laughed at the mother before putting the thumb back in his mouth and sucking it.

"Many reasons! Quickly grab your phone! We have to get to the hospital before 10."

"So he was told to slow down but now he was told to hurry. You Mothers!" Naruto sneered in a whisper for fear of being thrown away by Hermes Matte's bag of crocodile leather that his mother had brought. It hurts when you hit your head.

Kushina and Naruto got in the car. Kushina was in the front passenger seat while Naruto was in the back seat with Sei.

"Have she been given milk?" Tanya Kushina looked back.

Naruto nodded. He rubbed the little guy's stomach behind the clothes. "I've been feeding Sei-kun so that later in the car seat he does not behave much and immediately sleeps."

"Hopefully Sei sleeps fast and isn't fussy."

Naruto sat Sei in the car seat, put on his seatbelt and lastly kissed her baby's cheek before she herself secured herself in her seat.

"Sei-kun is smart, don't fuss about it."
