NaruSaku- My Baka Has Finally Come Home To Me

Chapter 5: The Mistake And The Cherry Blossom Cry

[Sakura POV]

"I don't understand"

My heart felt like it experienced more than it being shattered into million pieces. Those million pieces can be repaired but this time, it couldn't be.

When people exaggerate that their heart shattered, it will slowly heal back for them. But for me it didn't.

"Naruto, this is coming from your teammate and friend. Could you possibly give me a reason why you want to join the army" I said

Kakashi waiting for his  answer.

"My reason are still remained hidden. There's nothing benefit from telling you" he said calmly

"Naruto... I.... Why would you....

Ino was shock as me, well not surprise who wouldn't when someone you know who disappear then reappear to join in the military without anyone knowing and I MEAN NO ONE knowing. It just crushes you.

"Why won't you tell us the reason? Did something major happened in your family that I am unaware of?" Kakashi sensei said

"Did you not know, Kakashi sensei?"

Ino spoke firmly

"What? Did something happen when I wasn't present?" Kakashi said confusing

Due to our worries and frustration at Naruto disappearance. Our mind was blocked for the main reason he found a job.

"About 2 months ago, Naruto has informed us that his father has threatened to kick him out of the house if he doesn't find a job before graduation. So basically if he doesn't find one job then he will be homeless. No money equal no staying at home.

Kakashi sensei absorbed all the information. Then closing his eye and take a deep breath

"Is there any way we can stop you?"

With that he just shook his head

"After graduation ends, I'm going to the airport and travel to the training program. I have my travel expense covered by the military. There's no backing now. "He said

What he was summarizing was that it was to late. That we cannot even stop him for doing so. Which crushed me cause I need him. Without him I am nothing.

I... This is too much for me to handle. I'm gonna go home and take moment to absorb all what just happen."

 With that Ino left without hesitation.

"I'm go read to distract me and to calm myself." Kakashi sensei said

Then Kakashi left as well now just me and Naruto.

Just the two of us are the only in the room.

"All the year, that we spent together as Team 7, all that moment which is just the two, and don't tell all of those were meaningless."

I don't know this Naruto.. This Naruto is not the sun that shine the darkness away. No, this Naruto is a completely different person.

"All the year, that we have all the laugh, smile, fun, either it was good or bad time with the rookie 12, was that all meaningless to you?" I said 

Why do I feel my heart being shattered beyond repair. Where are you, Naruto. The real you come back to me please.

"I decided what my future is. You need to worry about yourself more than you need to worry about me. You are going to university."

He is indeed correct.

I have no control over him.

I want to help you like you help me all those time.

I am going to a university as soon as I graduate.

"Now then if we have nothing else to talk about. I will take my leave. I won't be here for the rest of the weeks except graduation. This is for my own good.  I'm confident that you also agree that our future is important." he said coldly

He takes his bags, and leave just like that

This was something that I was now out of my hands for first time . And I felt powerless top stop it... to stop him.

During the night, on my bed, It was past bedtime. This was the first time I couldn't sleep.

Wait... why are tear coming out of my emerald eyes. My breathing is slow. My body is shaking uncontrollably. The reason is...

Oh.

I am crying.

But why.

There was no reason to cry right?

My mind refuse the thought, but my heart is slowly accepting it as it tries to repair itself.

The heart has it own mind. And now it was telling me it was okay to cry.

Just because you cry, doesn't mean you are strong and you're not weak.

But the fact that I am crying right now, doesn't make you weak, It make you realize how you strong you were too long.

And so I accept it one night .

I cried.

I cred my heart out. And no one was there to comfort me. And now I feel like someone important to me that I love and kept me from being alone. has now left me alone again.

They say people who cry because something important to them left their left. Like a death in family.

So I possibly crying .... because Naruto leaving?

[Naruto POV]

I mess up.

I mess up bad.

I didn't mean to hurt their feelings and emotion.

Me signing up to military is only for family not for other to know

I know Sakura-Chan and Ino have mix emotion with me. The emotion of anger, sadness. I feel guilty but it too late now. 

And now I am left with a question.

Should I heal back our friendship before I leave? Or leave in how it is until the day I die?

That shouldn't even be a question. I have to fix it or else it won't be the safe if I do survive. For Sakura and Ino sakes.

Now that Sakura-Chan and Ino knows, I fear that the other will knows.

I have 2 weeks left to further improve as graduation come closer and closer.

I will apologize to them that is for sure.
