just because she was with kiba&#39;s dad doesnt mean that she&#39;s his wife. It would be perfectly reasonable for her to be his daughter.

that was a nice touch with the bird feather in neji&#39;s hand (although i think they overuse that caged bird symbolism wayy to much, but maybe im just saying that because they just recently had the whole caged bird explanation in the anime)
