004th saving smile [voice/action for CH 1]

[selfdoubt]

[The sound of something boiling can be heard in the background followed by the chopping of vegetables. Looks like someone's preparing a hearty meal. For a moment, that's all everyone listening to their journals will be able to pick up until the time Hinata's quiet voice can be heard.]

I... suppose I should have bought more lettuce...

[It seems like she's talking more to herself than to the journals. The quick rustling indicating busy movement can be heard next followed by more chopping of vegetables.

Chop. Chop. Chop.

Until Hinata yelps in surprise.]

Ah-!

[A steel object came falling down the ground and one can only guess it's the knife she's using.]

I should have been more--

[And the voice feed cuts.]

[keepitcanine]

Yeah?

[If he thought she wasn't, he'd be over there already.

Even so—]

Let me see your hand. Lift it up for a sec.

[The camera will give him a static shot of it quickly enough.]

[Voice]

[selfdoubt]

[She feels embarrassed by the order but she obeys anyway, fully knowing that Kiba's just concerned for her.

So she lifts up her hand. The cut is on her point finger and it's very deep but not shallow either. Something a ninja like her can totally tolerate.]
