Chapter 58

Neji looked at the girl and the dog, a peculiar thought crossing his mind.

"Big brother…" Hanabi rubbed her eyes, waking up from the table.
"Why didn't you go to your room to sleep?" Neji asked casually.
"I wanted to wait for you to eat together…"

"You don't need to wait for me to eat next time."
"Okay."
