Brother, you are my jade - Asma of Hokage

By the secluded lake, Kakashi and his subordinate Anbu escorted Asma and A Yi to this place.

"Everyone, thank you for bringing us here."

"You're welcome. During this time, if you need anything, just send us a signal at any time. Excuse me."

After they left, Asma and A Yi sat down on the bench beside them.Sitting side by side, the brothers leaned shoulders together, and they could even feel each other's body temperature and breath.

"Brother Asma, we haven't been here together for a long time."

"...uh...it's been...a long time."

A Yi is very clear that Asma has not completely freed herself from the emotion of self-blame.Now, he had to turn around and lean back towards Asma again.

Asma saw Ayi's actions, stared at him, and saw Ayi's body was much smaller than a few months ago, grief welled up in her chest again.And in the next moment, his shoulders were lightly held down by Ah Yi.

Seeing his elder brother stunned, Ah Yi took advantage of the situation and threw himself into Asma's arms.

"I know this action must be very uncreative..." Ah Yi said, "Because I have done it so many times since I was a child. But I always feel that between us brothers, this is enough."

Asma lowered her head subconsciously, and sniffed the smell on A Yi's body...the smell of medicine, sure enough, everything was different.They are afraid that they will never be able to go back to the past.

"Ayi...you have always been responsible for everything alone...why do you have to do this..." Asma's mouth finally moved, and her tone was full of sadness.In the past, if Ah Yi did not cherish himself, he would have to be taught a few words by Asma.But in the face of A Yi today, how could Asma say such words out of her mouth.

"...Because I have no other choice... After all, Brother Asma is the most important person in my life and the person I want to protect the most."

"! Ah Yi, don't you still..."

"Yes." Ayi lowered his head and pressed it against Asma's chest, "I don't want to keep it a secret anymore, because it's unfair to Brother Asma—I love Brother Asma the most! Whether it's in the past or It is now, it will be, and it will always be!"

These unpretentious words struck Asma's heart deeply.

Asma's eyes were moist.Speechless, also because it is impossible to speak.

"Now, I have integrated my life into Brother Asma's life—I can be with Brother Asma at all times! This is already the best result for me."

Asma understands Ayi's painstaking efforts, he can no longer continue to sink in regret.However, it is not an easy task to really do this.

"Ayi...can I hold you like this forever?" Asma tried to calm down and said, "At least, in these last days, I want to give you everything I can give you."

Hearing Asma's words, Ah Yi finally showed a long-lost smile: "Yeah!"

On that day, Asma was always like that, embracing A Yi with a warm and strong embrace.No distracting thoughts, no disturbance from outsiders, only this simple and pure hug.

Ah Yi is intoxicated in the long-awaited hug—different from the embrace of his elder brother to his younger brother when he was a child, since then the hugs have always included their shared hearts.The younger brother no longer needs to be frightened by his obsession, or the unknown horror after the elder brother learns the truth; the elder brother will no longer stay in the regrets of the past, but protect the person in his arms with pure love.

Even, they couldn't come together like that from beginning to end.

But at least, give them some space and let them hug like this.

At this moment, Hong went to the shrine.She prayed silently in the shrine, praying for a miracle to save the brothers.

She is no longer willing to pursue what Ayi means between Asma and her. Now, she only hopes that Ayi can live, that's all.

That night, Asma and A Yi returned home.

"Welcome back, Asma, and Ayi."

"Uh...we're back." Asma was stunned for a moment, he found that Hong didn't call him "honey" as usual.

"Red doesn't want to make A Yi feel knotted just because A Yi hears such a title—then Hong also..." Asuma suddenly understood something, and looked at Hong in astonishment.

The two looked at each other, and after a while, both of them understood from the other's eyes, everything was clear——

It turned out that they both knew about Ah Yi's feelings for Asma, but they kept it a secret because they were afraid of hurting each other.

"...Brother Asma, sister Hong, what are we doing standing at the door, let's go into the house together." A Yi said lightly, he understood what happened, but at this moment he no longer cared about it.

"Uh... well, let's all go in." Asma came back to her senses and said hastily.

The three of them entered the house, and after enjoying a well-prepared dinner, they went shopping together after the night fell.

The shops on the street are still bustling, the lights are shining, and the products are dazzling.It had been a long time since the three of them went shopping together, and Ah Yi seemed very excited.Although he had only been away from Konoha for a few months, the scenery in front of him still gave him the feeling of being away for many years.

"Nostalgia?...Because I don't have much time. However, to be able to experience such a happy time at the end, what more can I ask for..." Ah Yi thought, "But I can't always be so careless. …'dawn'…"

Happiness is always so short, unconsciously, it is already very late.

Asma was worried about Ah Yi's health, and persuaded: "A Yi...it's so late, we should go back..."

"Yeah, both of you can't be tired, playing too late is not good for your health."

"Well, then let's go back." A Yi nodded, but there was another deep meaning in his heart.

Back home, Ah Yi sat down on the spot, and later said with a serious expression: "Brother Asma, sister Hong, I think there is something that must be made clear to you..."

Ayi's attitude caused Asma and Hong to be puzzled and worried. The three sat on the ground, and Asma asked, "Ayi, what's the matter?"

"Because I've decided not to hide anything from you, I must now tell you about it. In fact, I intend to..."

Thus, Ah Yi talked about his plan to implement in the near future, the last plan in his life.

"Don't!" Asma suddenly said, and at the same time, she lowered her head, supported herself on the ground with one hand, and clenched her fist with the other hand, sweating continuously.

"That's enough, Ah Yi...don't do this again...don't sacrifice yourself anymore..." His voice was full of sorrow.

"Brother Asma, in fact, it's not a sacrifice... I just intend to maximize the value of my remaining life..."

"No! What is that if it's not a sacrifice?! Even if it's only a month, I hope we can accompany you and make you happy during this period. At least, this is what I must do as an older brother! "

"I owe you too much." Asma didn't say this, because he knew that Ayi didn't agree with and would not accept this statement.

"Ayi..." Hong couldn't bear it anymore, and persuaded, "You really sacrificed too much for all of us, and leave the rest to others, okay?"

"Thank you, I appreciate your brother's wishes. But I will continue to do this - because I am not only Sarutobi Asma's younger brother, but also the Sarutobi Tsubasa of the entire Konoha Village! I must, protect the village The 'jade'!"

"!" Asma's astonished expression lasted for a few seconds, and then was covered up by sadness and helplessness: "'Yu'..."

Asma's thoughts returned to that time again——

He was seriously injured by both Fei Duan and Jiao, and was on the verge of death.At that moment, Ah Yi rushed to the scene and used the reincarnation technique at the cost of his own vitality to save him.But as the price, Ah Wing's time is running out...

And more importantly, A Yi's declaration at the time: "Children are the 'Jade' of Konoha, and the 'Jade' common to all ninjas. However, everyone still has his own personal 'Jade': the most cherished person is It's his 'jade' - "Brother Asma, you are my jade! ! "

At that time, A Yi had already regarded Asma as the only one in his heart.

"That's why I want to maximize the use of the rest of my life for the village. I can do this, and I know the people of 'Xiao' best--they will probably die in a few days. The attack came, because if they knew my whereabouts and the fact that 'I have most of their information', they would definitely not give Konoha time to adjust and take precautions. Then, in order to reduce the loss of the village At the lowest level, I only need to sacrifice myself—besides, I don’t have much time, even if I sacrifice, it’s nothing..."

"Don't..." Asma still did not give up persuasion, and even bowed her head deeply, and put on a pleading posture: "I beg you, don't do that! Please!" Asma, who had nothing to do, unexpectedly He kowtowed heavily!

Both A Yi and Hong were stunned. After a long time, A Yi came back to his senses and hurried forward to support Asma's body to stop him.

"Brother Asma... calm down!" I have never seen my brother act like this in this life, and Ah Yi's heart was in turmoil.

He didn't want Asma like this, just as Asma didn't want him to.

"Really, please..." Even though A Yi supported her body, Asma still pressed her head down firmly, still begging.

Hong on the side also hurried over to stop it, but failed to calm the matter down.

After a long time, they finally calmed down.However, their hearts have not become peaceful——

Unable to convince the two, Ah Yi had to secretly use the illusion of Sharingan to make them fall asleep.

"I'm sorry, Brother Asma, Sister Hong... Please forgive me for the last time I will be willful..."

Ayi sat quietly beside the sleeping Asma, stroking the jade pendant that he had been wearing on his chest, and holding it tightly in his palm with firm belief.
