It's Just a String『ただのひも 』

「 一 」

"Yes, he's from Nakoudogakure after all."

Sakura knows that village, it's the one she and Ino talks about.
It's a village we're there are bunch  of fortune tellers and matchmaker.
And there are rumors spreading that it is true you can ended up with the one they'll tell you who your matched with.

"—But not exactly sees them, they can see a red string attached to a person and the end of string is attached to your soulmate."
Explains at her.

"Red string?"

Red string?

Both Naruto and Sasuke questioned but the fox-boy was the one who ask out loud while the other one says it inside his mind.

"According to legend, everyone's pinky finger is tied to an invisible red string which flows out of your pinky and goes on to intertwine with the red string of another person."
Their pink-haired teammate answered.

"Woah! That's amazing!"
Naruto said enthusiastically.

None sense. Sasuke says in the back of his mind.

" It is, and If I had the chance I would like to know whom am I destined to be with." She glance over her teammate who looks like showing no interest on the conversation the two females are talking about.

"What if Sakura-chan and me are connected to each other's string nē?"
Naruto takes a peak on Sakura who's beside the Pregnant woman.

In second Sakura was furious.
" It's impossible!" Growing an irk-mark on her temple.

Naruto backs out seeing Sakura got angry. "I'm just joking Sakura-chan, just joking."

"You better be. Because I don't want to end up being stuck with you!"
She said.

"Meanie." Naruto pouts.

They continue to walk at the rest of the day and decided to set a camp on a cold cave they found in the forest when the sun goes down.

They surround the warmness of campfire in the middle.
Eating and chatting.
Mostly like earlier, the two females who's only exchanging the talks, Naruto only talks when he had a side comment or a question,
Sasuke just observes at surroundings while Kakashi sticks his nose on his familiar orange covered book that is you wouldn't want to know about.

At the middle of their conversation, the pregnant woman touches her stomach suddenly.

Sakura notice her discomfort face.
"What's wrong Mei-san?"

"Ahh— it's just my belly.—AHH!—!"
She slumps at the cold surface of the cave as her stomach ached painfully.

The team 7 was alert to this, they immediately got up and surround the pregnant woman.

Sakura calculate what's happening.

She's in sixth month but it's not her due it will be the next three months.
Could it possibly be—?

"She's in Labor!"
Sakura yelled. "She's having her baby come out now!"
As they watched the pregnant woman clutch her belly and in a teary form.

"But it's her sixth month only, isn't it usually in ninth month before they deliver a baby?"
Sasuke said to her.

Sakura looks seriously at Sasuke "I know. But it's a premature baby. That's why it's possible to deliver even if it's not the ninth month."

"The hospital is too far from here but I could—"
Her Sensei said but she cuts him off.
