"Good to have you back here in Konoha, Sakura." Kakashi greeted a beautiful pink-haired lady in the entrance of Konoha, "It's been three years since you left this village."

Sakura was now a gorgeous woman. She left Konoha when she was seventeen, she was invited to be a ninja in one of the most highly-respected ninja organizations. Her pink hair fully grown upto her hips, irresistable curves, sparkling emerald green eyes and juicy lips, all the qualities of a lady can bee seen on her.

She smiled at her sensei and said, "Arigato, Kakashi-sensei. Err... So, how're the others?"

"Finished becoming jounins."

"How about you?" she giggled.

"Maybe I'm starting to grow old." he replied while sighing.

"Didn't you marry yet?"

"Marry? Who the hell will I marry? Okay, what's gotten into you?"

"Oh nothing. I was just thinking that you got married to Anko or to Kurenai..."

"No way!"

"Hihihi... Okay, okay. I'll go to my house now."

"See you sometime."

Sakura waved at her sensei as they both go their ways. Sakura reached her house in no less than 10 minutes, just by walking. She grabbed her key inside her bag and unlocked the door. To her surprise, there was no dust to be seen. Kakashi suddenly appeared in a smoke and waved at Sakura.

"Well, of course, from that looooooooong trip you had, I assigned some people to clean your house for you need a well deserved rest." Kakashi said.

"Oh thank you! Anyway, does anyone know I'm here?"

"Only the Anbus, the Hokage and the other senseis like me."

"You mean, you didn't tell Naruto or Sasuke? Or even Hinata or Lee?"

"I thought they wouldn't be interested since they've been busy training. Lee... Err... Should I even tell him?"

"Augh! Never mind, sensei." Sakura yelled. Kakashi laughed and disappeared in a smoke. The next day... Sakura went walking around the village. She suddenly bumped on a person infront of her. She touched her nose and yelled, "CAN YOU AT LEAST NOT STOP ALL OF A SUD... Naruto?"

"Sakura!!!" he shouted as he turned around. Everyone looked at the pink- haired girl and she can hear murmurs, "...Sakura? Since when did she come back?"

"Yosh! Sakura's back! Uhmm, since when?" Naruto asked.

"Since yesterday. Wow, you've grown tall! Not to mention that your hair also grew tall."

"Yup!"

"So where are the others? Sasuke, where is he?"

"Sasuke, the bastard?"

Sakura punched him on the face, "Don't call him a bastard, jerk!"

"OUCH! Why'd you do that? Anyway, he lives about ten blocks from the park."

"Okay! Thank you! Catcha' later!"

"Ja!"

Sakura ran her way to Sasuke's house. "He moved to new place, why?" she thought. She reached the doorsteps of his house and she panted for a while and she inhaled and exhaled. She put herself together and knocked on the door. The door flung open and she said, "I'm back."

Sasuke's eyes widened to see her. "Sa... Sakura?! Back? Since when?" Sasuke was handsome than ever. He was well-built! Macho to make it simple.

"Since yesterday. I came back since my boss told me I could get a vacation, like so. How about you?"

"Me. Uhm... I'm... I'm getting married in a month."

Sakura felt like a thousand or maybe a million kunais and shurikens stabbed every part of her body. She stopped her tears to fall and she smiled at him and sighed.

"To whom?"

"To me!" a voice said behind Sasuke replied. It was Ino. Not much of a change from her. "Welcome back, Sakura! You heard my darling correct, we're getting married! Isn't that wonderful?!"

Sakura clenched her left fist which was hiding on her back. She supported her smile with a giggle.

"Of course it is, Ino! It's very good welcome back gift for me. Uhmm... I still have to visit the others, so... Err... Gotta go! Have a memorable wedding!" And she waved goodbye at them and walked away. She wanted to run but she would look defeated by Ino so she just walked in a normal pace and Ino shouted, "Oh we will! Right, honey?"

"Err... Yes, Ino." he replied as he blankly stared at the pink-haired girl. When she was about three blocks away from the house, she ran with tears rolling down her cheeks. It became very dark and she can hear thunder and she can see the flashes of lightning as she ran. Rain water started to slap her face and pass by her long hair.

She stopped under a cherry blossom tree and she sat under it. The wind grew cold and she brought her legs up to her chest and wrapped her arms around her leg, leaned her head on her knees and cried some more.
