"Kushina, what are you and Mikoto doing over there?" Konan asked from beside Kushina, her face full of curiosity.
She had heard Mikoto making sounds that seemed half pained, half pleased, and she wanted to know why.
The sounds made Konan's body feel warm and strange. Something felt different about her.
"It's nothing. Yin and Mikoto are just exercising." Kushina fell silent under Konan's innocent gaze. After thinking for a long time, that was the best answer she could manage.
She couldn't bear to spoil Konan's innocence.
