Why did he leave? She’d ask herself so many times. It made her cry to think of what could have been.

What could have been…

When there were laughs.

Not cries.

What could have been…

When Naruto and Sasuke would tease each other.

She thought they were like her brothers.

That she knew Sasuke well enough to trust him.

Trust him that he wouldn’t go to Orochimaru.

Families do not do that to one another.

They trust each other.

She smiled bitterly, “What could have been…” She sang outloud.

The broken pink haired ninja of Konaha.

People didn’t know she was dying inside.

Nah.

She faked it.

She faked her smiles.

Inside she was crying.

She’d slam the door from her missions and cry.

Cry.

Cry.

Did she ever stop crying?

Nah.

She’s only human.

She took out a kunai, but then.

Then…

“Sakura, don’t do that.”

She stopped.

“It’ll only scar your pretty skin.”

Her heart raced.

“…I’m Back.”

Tears ran.

Laughter.

Laughter.

“I missed you too.” He smirked.

She looked around.

“Don’t worry, I’ll make sure you smile again.”
