"I love you!"

Those were the words she'd repeat every day she saw him. They had been together for a while and they were both young and senseless at the age of 16. He would look at her emotionlessly and give her the same thing he had given her every day.

A doll.

Her room was filled with dolls. Countless dolls. She couldn't count how many there were in her room now. They just dominated her pink walls and floor.

She could feel as though he was slipping away from her. She knew he was getting comfortable with one of his female jounin friends. She couldn't be with him, because she was at the hospital every day, saving lives and curing the sick. She couldn't take it anymore. He was becoming unfaithful and she could feel the distance.

She arranged for a meeting with him a couple of days after she decided their fate together. She waited for hours and hours at the bridge where they would meet for dates and festivals. He never came.

The next day, she was called to the Hokage's office. She sat there silently, waiting for the news. Her old teacher told her. He had died in a mission.

They handed her a doll that he held when he died. The hair was streaked with his blood. She went home and sobbed her heart out. He was out of her life forever. His selflessness caused this. She held the doll, gripping it tightly. She threw it at the wall, unable to contain her anguish and pain. She slumped down and buried her face in her hands, sobbing uncontrollably.

I love you.

She looked up again. She went over to the doll and picked it up. She squeezed it.

I love you.

It was in his voice. His calm and soothing voice. In a tone she had never heard before. Her eyes widened and ran to the stack of dolls. She squeezed each of them.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

The same phrase was repeated each time. She counted all the dolls in her collection.

426 dolls.

426 days.

426 I love you's.

1 year and 71 days worth of I love you.

She fell to her knees and cried.

When she woke up, she found a letter in front of her. It was from him.

Sakura.

I know what you wanted to tell me. All the dolls spoke the words I wanted to say. I couldn't say those words out loud. I was too embarrassed. Please forgive me.

I love you.
