Chapter 1: Beautiful Girl
Sakura's Point of view (POV):
I have a very beautiful sister. Want to know how I know? Everyone says so. "Wow," they always say breathlessly (actually, guys are usually the ones that say this breathlessly, but still-girls have complimented her too) that girl sure is beautiful." Shock comes next: "She's your sister?" As if I'm lying. I always wait like an idiot for them to say something more. ("She takes after you" would be great) But they always stay silent, embarrassed for myself as well as themselves.
Who am I? No one of real importance really-I'm Sakura Haruno, and I live in Konoha. I'm the only female on Team 7, which also consists of Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and last but not least, Kakashi Hatake. Let me describe them for you as best-and as quickly-as I can. Naruto is so annoying. He once told me had a crush on me, then he went off and dated Hinata Hyuga-I guess even though she's quiet, even she's prettier than me. Sasuke Uchiha is so serious and so handsome. I probably don't stand a chance with him, but that hasn't kept me from having a major crush on him. Kakashi Hatake is also annoying- always walking around like he owns the place. Our sensei is Tsunade-she's so strong and beautiful (I wish I could be like her someday).
Back to my oh-so-beautiful sis. I was cursed with pink hair that comes from my mother's side, whereas she was blessed with blond hair from our great-great grandmother. As if that weren't enough, she's more built than I am-I have small, petite barely striking features. She dresses with such flair and carries herself with such sophistication-I'm frustrated with the fact that I don't look as old as she does.
I know I shouldn't be angry with my sister- she can't help the fact that she has the looks in the family. Plus, she did give me 1fashion tip-she said I shouldn't be self-conscious about my rather large forehead and even suggested I wear ribbons and headbands to show it. I do wear my Leaf Village headband-I don't hold my bangs back, though. "Feel good about yourself and you'll look good," she once told me-in my opinion, that's easier said than done.
