Sakura had just finished loading the last box onto the moving truck, quite excitedly. She was finally moving to her parents birthplace, Konohagakure. "Sakura, make sure to not leave anything behind please. I really don't want to start driving and then suddenly forget something and have to turn back," She turned to look at her mother who was leaning on the porch railing, as well as the scowl resting on her face, most likely caused by the humid weather in Suna.

"Yeah, i'll go check right now." Sakura began to walk up the porch stairs and look at her childhood home as she soaked in these last moments of seeing it and maybe noticing something different. But there wasn't anything new to her home other than the paint starting to chip off and a desperate need to remove weeds from the lawn, other than that her home was her castle. Walking up the stairs and heading towards her room felt eerie since everything had been removed from the hallways and walls, walking into her room and picturing everything that used to be in there and the memories of her ex-boyfriend that came to mind. " Yup, I cannot wait to leave here." Sakura quickly turned out of the room, slamming the door behind her and making her way down stairs to her mom.

"Mom! I checked every room upstairs I have everything i'll be needing." Sakura yelled as she made her way down the stairs and towards the front door. " Also do you think we can get some-" She was close to the door when she heard the voice of her friend, Gaara. She stood at the hallway a little confused, considering they always had said goodbye to him when she said said goodbye to his sister.

Sakura's mother and Gaara who both stood at the entrance both turn to look her direction. "-Snacks." She stood there awkwardly not sure what to say, Sakura's mother sighed and smiled at Gaara." Well if you excuse me, I'm going to check in with the movers." Leaving them alone for a couple of seconds felt like an awkward eternity, considering they hadn't spoken to each other much since school had ended. As for Gaara who look slightly red from the sun, didn't seem to notice the awkward atmosphere.

"Hey Gaara, what are you doing here?" Sakura stood at the door looking at Gaara who stood at the entrance with a small box in his hands. She and Gaara had been attending Sunagakure High together, they were in the same group of friends and she even dated his cousin. " I know this is last minute and all, but I thought you should have this before you go." Gaara scratched his neck and gave her a sheepish grin, he handed her the box and inside were a pair of small blue earrings.

Sakura stared at the box closely as her eyes started to water. " It took me a while to find them, but I thought my grandmother Chiyo would have wanted you to keep them considering you were very close to her, aside from Sasori. Gaara stared at Sakura's flushed face, bringing back the memories of when she and Sasori had broke up and Temari comforting her severely broken heart, "Well I should let you get going, since it seems that you are all set to leave." Gaara stood at the doorway with an unhappy gaze, "Make sure you don't forget to visit us, you're still family to us and bring Naruto with you he seems to forget to visit me each time he comes." Gaara walks me to my moms car as she gives the movers the directions to our home in Konohagakure.

"Thank you for the earrings. I really do miss her." Lady Chiyo was a very mischievous old lady who owned a tiny wood shop in which she made puppets and wooden props, and is the place where Sakura had earned her first job; as well as boyfriend.

She and Gaara gave each other one last hug. "I can't thank you enough for this present." Sakura smiled sincerely as she leaned on her mother's van. "Don't worry about it, really it was nothing." She and Gaara stood there for a few minutes in comfortable silence till it was time for her to leave. Soon after she left he started walking away as her car was no longer visible from sight. Gaara turned toward the house as he began walking home remembering all the times he would have to pick Temari up and even happen to catching Sasori sneaking out through the window while Temari would leave from the front door.

The two were always inseparable even after she and Sasori had broken up for good,but it's best this way.
