One shot: Fake Smile.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.
A smile can hide your true feelings from showing. A smile gives you an excuse out of a really difficult situation.
To Sai, It helps him hide from his true emotions.
"Why do you always smile" Sakura asks.
"I have no other emotion to show." Sai replies with a smile.
"how do you handle a very bad situation without showing emotions?" Sakura asks Sai.
"Emotions can make you panic. Make you hurt others." Sai said and smiled again.
"What if you felt love?" Sakura asks.
"What would you do?" Sai said, but strangely he didn't smile.
"I would speak of the person everyday." Sakura continued, "I would dream and talk about him all day."
"I would have just faked another smile." Sai replied.
Sakura stared at him as if he were crazy.
"What if someone you cared about got hurt?"
"What could I do. They're hurt." Sai said with that same serious face.
"Wouldn't you cry or tell them everything you couldn't say to their face?" Sakura asks
"No. just call for help." Sai replied.
"Do you ever frown or show anything other than a fake smile?"
"Nope. Smiling helps with everything." Sai explained.
"Sakura, have you ever been in love?" Sai asked.
"Yes, I have." Sakura replied confused about why he asked that question.
Sai packed up all his stuff and walked away, But this time he smiled again.
Sakura stared wondering.
He just smiled?
"That time. It wasn't a fake one." Sai replied back before leaving.
Sakura stood there confused. wondering what he meant.
