' Do you think Hinata will be here again? ' Naruto asked with his hand on the handrails, as he steadily went up the stairs leading up to his apartment due to the weighted bands.

" I don't think so " Kurama said simply. ' I deserve that '.

Naruto made it up, found that the door to his apartment was still locked, the same as when he had left this morning. It became clear that Hinata had not been around, Naruto with a sigh of mild regret opened his door, and went in.

The blond Uzumaki locks the door behind him, once he was within his home. His piercing blue eyes went towards the scrolls, which remained on his couch from last night.

" I should pick those up, once am done taking that bath " Naruto said to himself, walking towards his bedroom to finally relieve himself from the stress and muscle strain the weights had caused him.

With every step he took, Naruto felt every tendon in his body pulsate. Naruto pulls his wardrobe open, with a groan then takes off his wrist bands, the removal of those brought about so much relief that he followed quickly by bending down and removing his ankle bands.

Naruto raised them and put them back inside the wardrobe floor, Naruto smiles, happy to not have to deal with those weights for the day.

" So how do you feel? ", ' I feel pretty good, incredibly light and firm. Though the throbbing sensation all over my body, hardly brings comfort ' Naruto replied.

" It will subside, just like all the rest have, " said Kurama proudly.

Naruto strips naked, then he looks at his own chiseled body, he touches his sharp big chiseled six pack abs with his bandaged right arm, then frowns when he noticed his eight pack was still in the budding stage.

' Soon ' He thought.

Naruto left his bedroom to take a bath with a tight black boxer shorts in hand. Whilst the water was raining down upon him, he decided to address what has happened earlier today while he was cultivating.

' I just want to say I'm sorry for not listening sooner, ' He started " you placed yourself in a predicament, and you know this is your fifth time ".

' Don't worry, I won't let it happen again. I'll try to deal with any emotional imbalance before cultivating next time ' Naruto assured.

" I really mean to ask you this, tell me in the honesty you are known for. Why are you always feeling guilty towards Hinata? ", Kurama's words came unto Naruto like the impact of a chidori.

Naruto wasn't expecting such a question, and became too stunned to formulate a proper thought in his mind. All that came to him in that moment, as if instinct, ' I don't know '.

" And you still don't want me to search your emotional sanctum? ", ' for now leave me as I am. Like I said I will make effort to not let guilt get in the way of my cultivation. Cause I truly don't want to know what is wrong with me yet, every fiber of my being is telling me not to find out ' Naruto replied.

" You've never been one to give up on anything... You have changed " Kurama said dejectedly. ' I'm sorry, I wish things could be different. But my world has started to spin recently, and I find myself too dazed to know where to stand, just bare with me. Okay? I promise that we will get through this, and I never go back on my words. Believe it. ' concluded Naruto humorously.

Kurama decided to believe Naruto, like he did when they became friends, and called one another by name.

" I believe in you, crazy brat ".
