Illustration to chapter 17 of my AU fanfic 🤗

The scene is as follows:

«Kakashi couldn't help it: he was drawn to the hotel where Arina stayed like a magnet. To his own considerable relief, he had not yet stooped as low as peeking through the windows, but he did not stop hoping that the girl would show up on her small balcony.

Therefore, adjusted to the girl's schedule, almost all of his limited free time he spent in a tree nearby, unnoticed by others, trying to convince himself that he was not stalking Arina at all, but simply reading a book in a very convenient tree – actually, rather the only convenient tree of Konoha. Well, and as for the fact that the tree was located right next to the hotel – it just so happened.

<…>

Arina, however, turned out to be by no means a houseling, so as soon as she more or less recovered and joined the life of the village, she began spending most of her time outside the walls, appearing at the hotel only for the night or to eat – so Kakashi's tactics did not work at all for a long time.

But then, one day he was lucky. It was a fine evening and Arina first opened the inner doors, then the panels that covered the balcony, and, instead of going back into the room, sat down, resting her elbows on the fence and propping her cheek with one hand. Apparently, she decided to not go out that day.

Kakashi livened up.

Despite the fact that the girl's situation was still hardly enviable, over the past time she has blossomed noticeably: this was clearly due to a measured lifestyle, neat (and, more importantly, unimpaired) clothes and hair. The only thing, she seemed somewhat thoughtful and even saddened.»
