"Grandma, who is she?"
Himawari pointed her small finger toward the unconscious girl in Kushina's arms.
"Mother, she…" Hinata's soft voice carried a note of confusion.
Just then, Naruto opened the door and briefly explained Hikari's origin.
"An Uchiha from the Warring States Era?" Hinata's eyes widened in surprise.
"Yes. I'll leave Hikari in your and Mom's care," Naruto said firmly. "I still have a meeting and other village affairs to handle."
"Don't worry, Naruto-kun," Hinata replied gently. "We'll take good care of her."
"Mom, Grandma, did Big Brother find us another big sister?" Himawari asked with wide, sparkling eyes.
Kushina chuckled, patting her granddaughter's head affectionately. "Maybe, sweetie. This older sister, Hikari, is looking for Boruto. She came from a very long time ago."
"Big Brother is amazing! Even the older sisters he finds are so beautiful!" Himawari clapped her hands, smiling brightly.
"Hahaha…"
Her innocent comment made both Kushina and Hinata laugh warmly.
"Oh right, Mother, will she be okay?" Hinata asked softly, her gaze full of concern for Hikari's pale face.
"She'll be fine. She just fainted," Kushina reassured her.
She gently laid Hikari on the sofa and carefully removed the girl's stained outer robe. "Hinata, help clean her up while I wash her clothes. Poor thing — she's been through a lot."
Hinata nodded and carefully carried Hikari to the bathroom. She placed her in the tub of warm water and began gently washing away the blood and dirt.
The warm water brushed softly against Hikari's skin, cleansing her exhaustion. Slowly, her breathing evened out, and color returned to her cheeks.
But even as she slept, she murmured faintly, "Boruto… Mother…"
Hinata sighed quietly. "I wonder what Sarada and Sumire will think when they find out… both of them are such good girls."
After finishing, Hinata dried Hikari's body with a towel. Since there were no clothes her size, she dressed her in Boruto's pajamas — a bit big, but still comfortable.
"It looks like we don't have a place ready for her," Hinata said. "Let's let her rest in Boruto's room for now."
She gently laid Hikari on Boruto's bed, tucked her in, and quietly left.
Time passed, and dusk painted the sky.
The golden sunset filtered through the window, lighting Hikari's sleeping face in a soft glow.
Suddenly, her brow furrowed.
"Boruto!"
Hikari jolted awake, gasping for breath as if escaping a nightmare. Her eyes darted around in confusion.
"Where… am I?"
"Creak—"
The door opened slightly.
Instantly alert, Hikari leaped up and clung to the ceiling like a cat, her crimson eyes locked on the doorway.
A tiny head peeked in — a strange creature with a single Sharingan eye.
"Huh? Where's the person?" it mumbled, scratching its head.
Suddenly, a pair of slender hands grabbed its head and lifted it off the ground.
"Ahhhh! Let me go!"
"What kind of monster are you? Why do you have a Sharingan?" Hikari's tone was icy cold, sharp and suspicious.
"Ow ow ow! Wait! I'm not a monster! I'm Young Master Boruto Uzumaki's pet — the one and only Krab!" it squeaked frantically.
At the mention of Boruto's name, Hikari's expression softened. She released her grip, and Krab dropped to the floor in relief.
"Krab! You didn't even tell Big Sister Hikari it's dinner time!"
Himawari's voice called up the stairs.
"I'm sorry! I was wrong!" Krab immediately fell to its knees, bowing so fast it looked rehearsed.
"Okay, okay, stop kowtowing already. I forgive you." Himawari giggled and then turned to Hikari with a kind smile.
"You are…" Hikari began, cautious but curious.
"Big Sister Hikari, I'm Uzumaki Himawari — Boruto's little sister!" Himawari said cheerfully, stepping closer and taking Hikari's hand warmly.
"Boruto's… little sister?" Hikari said shyly. "I'm Uchiha Hikari."
Despite her nervousness, she felt a deep warmth toward the cheerful girl.
"Come on, Big Sister Hikari! Mom made a delicious dinner!"
Hikari nodded, following Himawari downstairs, her heart full of both apprehension and hope.
At the dining table sat Minato, Kushina, Hinata, and Naruto, all smiling kindly as she approached.
Their gentle gazes made Hikari's heart flutter — this family radiated warmth.
Hinata stood and touched Hikari's head softly. "Don't be afraid, Hikari. This is your home now. We're all family here."
Her calm, motherly tone melted the unease in Hikari's heart. Tears welled up in her eyes.
"Come, sit down," Hinata said, leading her to the table.
The dishes were plentiful and aromatic.
Throughout dinner, Hinata and Kushina kept filling Hikari's bowl, not asking questions, just smiling and telling her to eat as much as she wanted.
Himawari grinned. "Big Sister Hikari, Mom's cooking is the best! Eat lots!"
"This is Boruto's home… it feels so warm," Hikari whispered. Tears slipped down her cheeks. She hadn't felt this kind of kindness in a long time.
After dinner, Hinata brought her a cup of hot milk. "This should help you sleep."
When Hinata left, Hikari whispered softly, "Boruto… where are you?"
She sat up and wandered to Boruto's desk. Several photo frames rested there, filled with happy family pictures.
She picked one up — Boruto was grinning wide, hugging his family close.
"Boruto…" she murmured, tracing his face gently. A swirl of emotion filled her chest.
The next morning, sunlight spilled over Konoha.
"Boruto! Boruto, wake up!"
On a rooftop platform, Sarada and Sumire were frantically shaking Boruto.
"I'm fine," Boruto said weakly, opening his eyes.
"You scared us half to death! You just fainted when you time-traveled!" Sumire cried.
Boruto rubbed his head. "I really… traveled through time, huh?"
"Let's go home."
Placing a hand on each girl's shoulder, Boruto used the Flying Thunder God Technique, and the three of them vanished—
—reappearing instantly in Boruto's bedroom.
But what they saw made them freeze.
A girl was sitting on Boruto's bed — wearing his clothes.
Sumire and Sarada's eyes widened in shock.
"Who are you?!" Sarada demanded. "Why are you wearing Boruto's clothes?!"
