PROLOGUE

Sasuke~

I walked ahead of Sakura. She couldn't keep up, this wasn't the first time either. She had always been slow because of her condition. She always slowed me down and the slow pace she lived her life in affected me as well. Everything was always about her -'Saki this', 'Saki that'- but I guess it was my job as her big brother. At least that was what Mom and Dad expected of me. So I just put my Big Boy pants on and made them proud, Saki was oh-so delicate after all.

Sakura~

I felt bad that Sasuke always had to watch over me. I know he didn't deserve to be burdened with the responsibility of tending to a sibling with a disability. He always had to stand up for me when the people at school got too mean. I wish I could stand up for myself, but sometimes it just seems impossible. I know Sasuke wishes he had a regular sister, I do too. My dyspraxia makes me life hard, but I thank the spirits for my Sasu. Daddy always told me that I was special, and that Sasu would be my guiding light. I always believed him. Neither one of us stopped to ask Sasuke if he was willing.

Important AN:

Sakura suffers from a learning disorder called dyspraxia. Dyspraxia affects motor skills development. For Sakura simple things turn into large tasks. From holding a glass of water to forming words with the muscles of her mouth.

Will life get any better for her? You'll have to stay tuned to find out.
