CHAPTER 21: SECRETS

KASUMI'S POV

Another devastating news... Hidan and kakuzu had been defeated by the Konoha nins...

Hidan... He was so excited about being an uncle... Kakuzu, He hasn't even taken the money for this month...

Death is unavoidable...

I have told that to myself ever since my first teammates died, Prepared myself for the worst, I can't spend my days crying because of death's, I need to stay strong especially when I'm not living for just my life...

But it's hard when they're dying one after another...

It was all a normal day-- Minus Zetsu who has been watching me from the ceiling, I sent kichi to buy me some necessities since I knew that I wouldn't be allowed to go outside considering that Konan would immediately know so will pein and then there's zetsu who is watching me from my ceiling

Itachi and Kisame were gone for another mission, But let us not forget the new additions... Deidara and... Tobi

Let me be honest here... I think I like the previous tobi more, The one who kept acting like Madara...

Because This is too out of character, he is fooling around pretending to be an idiot, and when no one is around did I mention that he never let me out of his sight in fact he was actually very caring knowing that I was pregnant...

Like this situation for example...

"Deidara-senpai! Wait! wait!" Tobi said 

"Shut up!" Deidara yelled annoyed as he blew off tobi

I only looked at him, tilting my head I wanted to ask if this was a part of his act or if he was simply a masochist that loved to be blown off by Deidara

But that would be weird? wouldn't it?

"Now that he's gone..." I heard him mutter before he stood up to which I ignored continuing what I was doing which was arranging the scrolls from rank D to A

"You've been doing that since this morning Kasumi, Why don't you take a rest?" Tobi said in his deep voice

There he goes again... I'm still not used to his... Kindness

"Eh? What time is it?" I asked

"It's already noon" He answered making me look outside the window, He was right...

"Oh, Then I guess I'll have to continue this later" I muttered before I stretched

"Give it a rest," Tobi said before I felt him touch my head and laid me on his lap

See what I mean by his 'kindness'?

Sometimes I appreciate it sometimes... I don't... But alas, I was already too comfortable I didn't want to move

"You won't be joining us for the retrieval of three-tails" He said

"I know, It's because it's too dangerous... right?" I said

"Hn. Also because Konoha nins will be there" He said

"Why do you want me to not make contact with Konoha nins so badly?" I asked but I was only met with silence

For some reason, He makes me feel like I'm talking to Kakashi... That's why I never complain when he acts all overprotective but why does he want me to not make contact with anyone from outside... Nowadays it's just the Akatsuki and kichi...

After the extraction of the three-tails chakra, My virtual body had finally disappeared and now I was just staring at zetsu
