wow. i won't lie, that was difficult to read. as another reviewer said, sakura doesn't get any real recognition in the manga either (at least not as far as i've read). it was also difficult because the pain was believable, something many of your readers can relate to, i expect. i know i could.

thanks for your beautiful, honest writing.

What a sad story... It does have a semi-happy ending though. The writing style is also special. I feel more like a spectator... I guess it's a welcome change.

Not many people appreciate that Sakura had to fight her own battles alone as well. Your story was perfect in the most beautiful, human way possible. I just want to say thank you, because you probably already know how goddess like you are.

Your stories never fail to become passionate. Actually I expected something different, but that's not to say I'm disappointed. On the contrary, I think you fic shows a part of the character of Sakura that not many have bothered to show: how she confronted her own demons.

Maybe not the best of ways, but finally could get some recognition.

I've read this story many times now and it never fails to make me cry. This is beautifully written and expresses such depth of emotion it's startling.

Thank you for your work.

so heart wrenching. your writing always invokes so much feeling from me.

So bittersweet... but this could really be canon. Looooove it!

This was great! You've portrayed each character perfectly. I actually thought they would end up getting together when Sasuke and Naruto both arrived home and when that didn't happen, I honestly wasn't upset like I thought I'd be. The ending was just as good! Probably even better. I liked how it was unpredictable. This was greatly written and now I ship KakaSaku again ;_; all these feels are returning

That was brilliant! So dark, and not at all hard to imagine - it's nice that you explored what Sakura went through after Naruto and Sasuke left, seeing as that was the time she grew so much. Well done!

This really broke my heart.
I love how you explored Sakura in a way Kishimoto never did; he never gave her enough attention, just as how Kakashi in this story never seems to either. He doesn't develop her; so she tries to develop herself into a woman through her actions, reckless as they are.

And she cries three times-one for every important person she's lost.

This is so beautiful.

I love you.

Sad but truly lovely!

'he explains to the ground near her feet that he was drunk, and she reassures the collar of his vest that she was drunk too' - such an interesting way to vividly convey the situation.. Great job!

So bittersweet. But beautiful. Love your work.

This story was truly like no other. I loved the lasting impression it left with me after reading and it is extremely rare for a fanfiction to convey as much emotion as this one did; especially considering how short it was. All in all, I couldn't wish for anything more.

This was just amazing. I had to re-read it a couple times because I couldn't get enough. Your work amazes me.
