Haruno Sakura.
A girl
A friend
A daughter
A lover…
In my own mind.
Can he?
Will he?
Could he?
Or will Ino beat me to the punch?
She won't.
Not if I have any say.
…
But could I stop her?
If she tries, that is.
She will,
I can feel it.
But when?
How?
Will he…
Accept?
No...
Decline?
I can only hope.
Does he…?
Impossible.
…
Right?
This is more of a test
Than the Chunin Exams.
Much harder.
I'm sure to fail this.
I have no answers.
…
Right?
Am I the one asking questions?
Of course.
But whom am I asking?
Not him.
Not Sasuke.
…
Not yet, at least.
I can't make the first move.
Flirting is one thing…
But this.
This is a whole other test.
I'm sure to fail.
But I'll still give it my all.
Because if he says that word,
That one word that could break me
I'll at least know I tried.
…
Right?
