He watched the young girl, picking up slightly on her knowing she had been caught in the act. Staring softly as she had quickly played it off though he nods. Moving over to join the young girl he was ready to help her with carrying the food but she had it under control. Crossing his arms under his chest he watched her for a moment. With a faint, gentle smile, the Hyuga nodded as he listen to her then moved to take a seat across from her as she had requested. Staring at the food it was then that he had actually realized that he hadn't eaten lunch yet that day. Blinking he inhaled, taking in the smell of the food "Ah, thank you for thinking of me, Himawari." He comments before helping himself to some of the food she had brought.

He continued to smile a bit, thinking about how sweet the other had been to think of him. Bringing his attention back to her he lifts up a bite before deciding to ask " How have you been lately? Is your schooling going well?" Of course, he more than likely knew a lot about how she had been doing. He was a very doting Uncle at times " I trust you are making many good friends, hm?" He nodded, knowing that even a few good friends would make even the most difficult of mountains easier to climb " I heard you recently unlocked the Byakugan, from your mother. What do you think of it so far?"

       “Himwari-chan!” Sakura was always happy to see her niece. Himwari was precious and it was a shame Naruto didn’t spend more time with her. It’s okay, Sakura is here to fulfill her aunt duties and spend sometime with the girl. It’s important for her to have a good support system after all. 

      “How are your studies at the academy going?” 

Offers him a hug of greeting?

     He tenses when Himawari wraps her arms around the iron sand cloaking his form, but allows the contact regardless. The iron probably felt soft to her; it had been ground fine into near dust with how often each grain clashed against one another. Shinki merely wasn’t used to being greeted so cheerfully.

❝ me? too busy for you? of course not! ❞ a content little hum as she scoops her niece up into her arms for a affectionate embrace. it’s ALWAYS a delight to see her and boruto. ❝ there’s always time for you, sunshine. what sort of aunt would i be if i didn’t spoil you and your brother, hm? ❞

(And that is exactly why she dressed as a ghost)

The days only seemed to drag on as Shikamar dumped some more workload on his desk. He supposed this was what he wanted and had signed up for. He hadn’t guessed to be so bitterly busy; but that didn’t mean he’d stay there all night. He had a family to come home to and sometimes he’d just drop a few sheets of papers to go home early and he could listen to Shikamaru’s complains on the next day, but Shikamaru wasn’t complaining much. He often filled in for the blond hokage just fine. Seeing that he had forgotten his lunch ruined his mood a lot though. He loved Hinata’s home made food so much and now he headed out without it. He sighed.

When he heard the knock, he responded immediately just to be greeted by his purple sunshine. “Hima!” he exclaimed happily and got up to greet his daughter. The blond accepted the box and put it on top of his desk before lifting up the little girl to gently swirl her around. “You’re such a kind girl, aren’t you?” He pressed his lips to her forehead. “You’ve made my day so much better.”
