It was a hot afternoon in Konoha, the sun shining brightly over the village, and the gentle breeze making the leaves of the trees move softly. You walked through the park, your eyes following the path ahead, thinking about how calm the day had been. Not that this was a sign that things were without challenges, but after so much time living with the tensions and daily battles, a break was welcome.

Kiba Inuzuka, your boyfriend, was by your side, his usual irreverent smile on his face. Contrary to his energetic personality, today he seemed calmer, his eyes relaxed as if he was simply enjoying your company.

"You seem distracted today," Kiba commented, his eyes focused on you. "Thinking about something, or just enjoying the heat?"

You smiled, but the doubt still lingered in your mind. The work in Konoha never truly disappeared. The village’s safety, missions, and even the enemies lurking in the shadows… it was still something you had to think about. But with Kiba by your side, the anxiety seemed a little less overwhelming.
