❖ Chapter 3| Fragile Illusions
The night hung heavy with silence, the moon casting a pale glow over the camp where Sakura lay in slumber. In her dreams, the boundaries between reality and fantasy began to blur, leading her down a path she had never dared to tread before.
In her dream...
Sakura found herself walking beside Kakashi through a tranquil forest, the air thick with an almost tangible tension. The scenario felt surreal, as if the universe had shifted to accommodate a version of reality she had never considered. The man beside her, her former sensei, was no longer the distant figure she had once admired—he was here, present, and sharing a moment of intimacy that left her heart racing.
They conversed as if time had melted away, their words laced with a familiarity that spoke of shared history and unspoken emotions. And then, in a clearing dappled with moonlight, their steps faltered, and their gazes locked in a silent exchange that conveyed more than words ever could.

Before Sakura could comprehend what was happening, Kakashi's fingers gently tilted her chin, his touch soft yet electrifying. Their lips met in a hesitant kiss, a blend of longing and uncertainty mingling in the charged air. It was a kiss that held promises, a kiss that defied the boundaries of reality and ventured into the realm of dreams.

But as the dream's embrace tightened, Sakura was abruptly jolted awake, her heart racing as if it sought to escape the confines of reality. She sat up in her tent, her breath uneven, her mind a whirlwind of emotions and confusion. The dream's fragments clung to her like fragile threads, leaving her both bewildered and shaken.
