My dearest Deidara,
Today, Kakashi visited me in my room. It started off like it normally does, he was quiet for a time. After a while, he started talking about the past. He laughed at most of the things, talked about little missions we went on. He smiled each time he brought up how I was as a child.
He talked about when we first met, and about the chunin exams. After a while, he ran out of things to reminisce about and he was brought back to reality.
He sat there for a few minutes in complete silence. All I could do was watch as the most emotionally strong man I knew crumbled. Right in front of me, Kakashi started crying.
I couldn't do a thing, I just watched as his body shook with the painful sobs. I couldn't even cry with him, I had learned to accept the pain over time.
When the tears ceased, he just got up and left as silently as when he entered. I felt somewhat bad when he left, for not being able to do anything. I feel like I've been more emotional lately.
It was horrible to see Kakashi like that. I've never seen him cry, he's always been so against crying, I actually thought he was incapable of it for a time.
I don't know why he waited until now to let his feelings out though.
