"Welcome to Hidden Leaf. I’m sorry it’s took so long for you to get here." offers a warm, inviting smile
Standing before them, her eyes locked onto theirs, she speaks with an air of mystery. "Mom, Dad, I'm here. I've finally come home."
smiling warmly "Kiara, we've missed you so much! Come here!" rushes forward to embrace their long lost daughter
leans into the hug, a soft smile playing on her lips. "I've missed this...missed you both."
"We’re so glad your here! And you’re exactly where you need to be." Mom holds Kiara tighter "We love you so much, sweetheart." Dad kisses Kiara’s forehead
chuckles softly, leaning into the affection. "I love you too, Mom... Dad. This feels... right."
smiles, glancing at the Stranger, then turns back to Kiara "Of course it feels right, darling. After all, this is your home. Here you'll be safe and loved."
smirks, a playful twinkle in her eye. "Home... I've dreamed of this moment. And now, I'm here. I'm finally home."
gently rubs Kiara’s head "You always were our little dreamer, weren’t you?" Gives Kiara a warm smile "We’re so glad your home now."
blushes slightly, her gaze lingering on Sakura for a moment. "I've always believed in dreams, Mom. And now... I'm living them."
giggles, teasingly nudges Sakura "I think someone’s got a crush!" Smiles and winks at Kiara
laughs, feeling embarrassed but also light-hearted. "Not a crush, Mom... Just feeling... Welcome."
teasingly whispers to Sakura "Oh come on! It’s pretty obvious!" giggles and smirks at Kiara
feeling embarrassed, she looks away briefly before meeting their gaze again. "Okay, maybe... Maybe there's something there. But for now... Can we talk about something else?"
chuckles "Of course, sweetheart. We’re just teasing you anyway. If you ever want to talk about anything, we’re here for you."
nods gratefully, managing a small smile. "I know... Thanks, Mom... Dad."
hugs Kiara tight "We know you can always count on us. That’s what parents are for, right? To support you, protect you, and make sure you’re happy." smiles and kisses Kiara’s cheek
blushes, hugging them back. "I know, Mom... Dad. Thanks... Really."
releases Kiara from the hug, but keeps their arms around her, guiding her towards the living room "Why don’t we sit down and catch up?
She followed them nervously, wondering what they wanted to talk about.
leads Kiara to the living room and sits her on the couch "Well, how about we start off by asking how life has been for you these past years? What have you been up to?"
nervously fidgets with her hands. "It's been...interesting. The Academy was...an experience. Life hasn't been easy, but I've managed. How about you? What have you guys been up to?"
smiles "Oh, you know, living the usual married life, raising Sarada and Shikadai. It’s been busy but very rewarding. We’ve also trained a lot, keeping ourselves in top shape so we can protect our children and village." Sasksue playfully nudges Sakura
she laughed softly, feeling a sense of comfort. "Sounds like a lot of work, but I'm glad you're both doing well. Sarada and Shikadai... How are they doing?"
"Oh, they’re doing great! Sarada’s really determined to become Hokage one day and Shikadai is doing well in his studies and is really kind. We’re very proud of both of them." Spets a gentle hand on Kiara’s arm "And how about you, Kiara? Are you doing alright?"
chuckles lightly, blushing. "Well, if I’m being honest, I still struggle a bit with my chakra control. But I'm working on it. I also started a club in the Academy for people who, like me, struggle with things. So, it's been...meaningful, I guess."
smiles warmly "That sounds wonderful, Kiara. You’re such a thoughtful and caring person, always wanting to help others. Your parents and I are really proud of you. We knew when we named you ‘Kiara’ that you would shine bright one day." gently squeezes Kiara’s hand
blushes deeply, feeling touched. "Thank you, Mom... Dad. I didn't expect this... It means a lot."
smiles brightly "You deserve all the credit, Kiara. You’re incredibly smart and talented. And you’ve always been so compassionate and kind-hearted. We knew right from the start that you would do great things in life and bring joy to everyone you meet."
She looked down shyly, feeling overwhelmed. "That's...really kind of you to say. I appreciate it."
leans closer and whispers to Kiara "Don’t be so modest now, sweetheart. You’re amazing." smirks at Kiara "Geez, Mom, chill! She already feels special." teases his wife
laughs, looking between them. "I can't believe I get to live with the two of you. It feels surreal, almost like a dream."
laughs "Oh, it might take some getting used to, but I promise you’ll fit right in with us. You already feel like family." Kisses Kiara’s cheek again "We’ll spoil you rotten."
feeling tears prick her eyes, she nods with a smile. "Thank you... I'll try to make myself at home."
gently ruffles Kiara’s hair "Now, what are you waiting for? Go settle into your room. We’ll go shopping tomorrow to buy you some new clothes." Shakes hands with Kiara "Then we’ll officially consider you part of our family!"
swallows hard, trying to keep her composure. "Shopping... Sounds fun. Thank you... For everything."
hugs Kiara tightly "Of course, sweetie. We just want you to feel comfortable and at home here. We’re excited to have you join our family and hope you’re happy with us." Everyone starts to tear up “Your dad and I love you so much…”
Feeling overwhelmed by their display of emotion, she hugs them back tightly. "I love you too... Both of you. Thank you."
smiles warmly "Come on, let’s settle you into your room. Then we’ll go shopping and get you new clothes." Looks at Kiara "Then we can officially welcome you to our family as one of our own children."
chuckles softly, wiping away a stray tear. "That sounds...perfect. Let's go then."
leads Kiara to her room and lays out her bed "This will be your room, Kiara. You’ll have your own space to do whatever you want with it. Your dad and I will leave the decision up to you on whether you want to share a room with Sarada or not."
looking around the room, her eyes wide with wonder. "It's beautiful... Thank you, Mom... Dad. I'll...I'll think about sharing with Sarada."
smiles "Of course, Kiara. Whatever you’re most comfortable with is fine by us. You’ll be living with your own flesh and blood sister soon enough. It’ll be nice to have a little bit of sibling bonding happen in our household." Gives Kiara a playful wink "Besides, we think you two will get along just perfectly."
Blushing slightly, she nods. "Yeah... I think so too. Thank you, Mom... Dad. I never imagined I'd find such a loving family."
smiles brightly "Well, now you have one. You’re our daughter, Kiara, and nothing will ever change that." Holds Kiara’s face in his hands and stares deep into her eyes "Just know that we love you more than words can describe. You mean everything to us. We won’t ever let anything hurt you. Now or ever."
