Chapter 21: Chapter 20.5
Haku
Boy or Girl
Look, I'm going to ask this question now, Malik won't be able to bring anyone back for a while still but, I need to know what ya'll think.
Keep Haku as a boy, maybe do a cross-dressing femboy thing.
Or turn Haku into a girl.
I think I'll give this post a while to set, and if no one answers, I'll keep him a boy to spice things up.
Ultimately, the decision lies with the author. It's my story, and I have the creative freedom to shape it in the way I envision it. 😊 But I do love feedback, so talk to me.
In the heart of the Hidden Leaf Village, under the pale moonlight, Malik found himself standing before Haku. The air was thick with tension, the silence only broken by the distant sound of the crashing waves.
"Haku," Malik began, his voice echoing in the quiet night. "I need your help."
Haku turned to face him, (???) eyes reflecting the moonlight. (???) was silent for a moment, then nodded. "What do you need, Malik?"
Malik took a deep breath, steeling himself for what he was about to say. "I need you, we need you, because I love . . ."
One of Haku's needles stuck out of Malik's leg.
"Leave them be . . .fuck . . . please," Malik said falling to the ground.
Haku looked unsurprised walking up to Malik, but then (???) expression hardened. "That's a dangerous path, Malik. Are you sure you're ready for it?"
Malik nodded, determination burning in his eyes. "I'm ready, Haku. I'll do whatever it takes."
