In the hospital room, Hyuga Gen spoon-fed Hyuga Natsu mouthful after mouthful of plain congee.
Hyuga Natsu watched him with a smile in her eyes.
For some reason, seeing Natsu's smiling face made Gen feel stifled inside. It was an indescribable feeling, and he almost wanted to cry.
Natsu, you're such an idiot, Hyuga Gen said to himself once again.
