They reunite in the entrance of the hot springs

With her hair styled in loose, flowing waves, Kushina felt a sense of serenity wash over her as she made her way back to the designated meeting point. The soft rustle of her yukata accompanied her footsteps, the delicate fabric catching the faint scent of cherry blossoms as she moved. As she turned a corner, Lord Arakawa came into view, his tall, imposing figure standing out against the subtle tones of the surrounding architecture. He was dressed in a simple yet elegant black yukata, the fabric accentuating his broad shoulders and lean physique.

As Kushina approached, Lord Arakawa's eyes met hers, his gaze sweeping over her with a warm, appreciative smile. He took a step forward, his movements fluid and unhurried, and Kushina felt a flutter in her chest as he drew closer. The soft rustle of her yukata seemed to grow louder, the delicate fabric shimmering in the fading light of day as she came to a stop before him.

"Kushina Uzumaki, you look stunning," Lord Arakawa said, his deep voice low and smooth, his words dripping with sincerity.

As Lord Arakawa's words washed over her, Kushina's cheeks flushed with a soft, becoming pink, her eyes dropping for a moment as she felt a gentle warmth spread through her face. The delicate fabric of her yukata seemed to shimmer in the fading light, the cherry blossom patterns dancing across the fabric as she moved. Lord Arakawa's smile deepened, his eyes crinkling at the corners as he reached out to offer Kushina his arm.

Without a word, Kushina took his arm, her hand settling into the crook of his elbow as they turned to walk towards the hot springs.
