Hanako's POV

I was walking around the streets of Konoha thinking about tomorrow's test.

So... In order to pass tomorrow's test, we have to make three perfect clones... And if we passed then we can become genins... Nice... Sounds easy enough...

I put my hand under my chin and thought about what I was forgetting.

I haven't spent much time with Hatake-san... But, that's not it...

"Hm... What is it..." I furrowed my eyebrows and close my eyes as I try to remember. I open my eyes and snapped my fingers at the realization.

Oh! I forgot to buy the cooking utensils.

I stopped by at the utensil store and step inside. I walked around the store and picked out some necessary stuffs and went to the counter. I paid the shopkeeper the money and walked out of the store.

Now, I'll buy some meat and vegetables.

Next, I went inside a store nearby and look around. I picked out some fresh meat and some vegetables. I walk to the counter and paid the shopkeeper and step out of the store.

I look down at the stuffs I bought,

"I bought too many... And its pretty heavy..." I was having trouble in carrying the bags full of the stuffs I bought.

"Need some help?" A voice asked from behind me.

I look behind and saw Hatake-san standing there with his hands in his pocket while wearing a bored look.

I shook my head,"No, I'm okay." I smiled at him.

"You sure?" He asked once more.

I nod my head,"I'm sure." I start walking.

Hatake-san walked besides me. I swayed a bit since the bags were heavy. Hatake-san chuckled at me and carried some of the bags,

"You looked hopeless." Hatake-san laughed lightly.

I glared at him,"Shut up!" I yelled at him.

He just laughed and continued walking.

I pout my lips,"Hatake-san is mean." I whined.

He pat my head softly,"Sorry, sorry." He apologized.

I smiled at him,"Its okay." I said.

He gave me a close eye smile. We then headed towards our home.

-

"Hatake-san!! You're messing up everything!!!" I yelled at him as he added the wrong ingredients to the food.

Smokes started forming from the sauce pan. We watched as the sauce pan began shaking and...

BAM!

It exploded while small fires formed in different places.

"Ahhh!!!" I screamed and dug under the table.

Hatake-san was trying to stop the fire. He dumped some water on the places where small fires were there. After putting out the fire, he opened the window and let the smoke pass out. I come out from under the table and glared at Hatake-san,

"I told you that I'll cook the food!! Now see what you did!! One utensil has gone to waste!!" I scolded him harshly.

He scratched his head nervously,

"Sorry. I thought that you needed help so... yeah..." He look down on the ground.

I crossed my arms and sigh,

"You go and take a shower. You're all messed up. I'll cook the food." I clean up the mess in the kitchen and start preparing the food again.

-

"All done..." I place the foods on the table and sigh. I look down at my clothes and see that it was all dirty.

"I have to take a shower..." I walk towards Hatake-san's room and open the door and peeked inside. He was laying on his bed while reading his orange book.

"Hatake-san, dinner's ready." I called out to him.

He look up from his book and look at me,

"Okay. I'll be right back down." He told me.

"I'll go and have a shower and we can eat together." I told him and close the door and walk towards the bathroom.

I enter the bathroom and close the door and took off my dirty clothes and dump them in the basket. I step inside the shower and turn the faucet on and showered for awhile.

-

I walk towards Hatake-san's room and knock on the door,

"Hatake-san, we can eat now." I told him through the door and walk back inside the kitchen. I reheated the foods and place them neatly on the table.

After placing the foods on the table, Hatake-san came and sat down on the chair. He look at the foods I prepared,

"Looks good..." He muttered.

I sat down opposite to him,

"Let's dig in." I said.

We join our hands together in a praying pose,

"Ittadakimasu." We then ate our food silently. I look at Hatake-san to see how he likes the food and saw that he was....wait.....is he....eating...while...wearing A MASK?!! SAY WHAT?!

"H-How are you eating with a MASK?!!" I gave him a look of shock.

He look up from his food,

"Hm...? I just eat when no one is looking." He answered calmly.

"But, I already saw your face!" I continued,"Besides, it's better to eat comfortably than to eat it sneakily without anyone noticing. If you don't like eating in front of the public, atleast eat it freely in front of me. Please?" I gave him a pleading look.

He blushed a bit and cough,"Fine..." He took off his mask and kept it on the table. He look at me expecting me to blush and fangirl over him but I just sat silently while eating my food. He just shook his head and ate his food silently. He then realized that I have graduation test tomorrow so he look at me,

"Hanako, do you know how to make clones?" Hatake-san asked.

I nod my head and continued eating.

"Three perfect clones?" He asked again.

I nod my head once more and continued eating.

"Really? Coz' if you don't then I can teach you." He said.

I shook my head and continued eating.

Hatake-san sweatdropped at me and sigh,

"If you need help, I'm always here..." He said in a low tone.

Finally, I look up from the food and look at him,

"Hatake-san, you don't need to worry about me. I learnt a lot of things from staying at the forest. Tomorrow's test is easy. I can pass it. Don't worry, I'll become a genin from tomorrow." I gave him a smile.

"Okay then." He gave me a close eye smile.
