Toph woke up. She felt tons better. It was drizzling outside of the cave. She realized gaara was not there. Wanting to get some fresh air, she walked outside. She started to feel sad as she remembered her parents. Why did they shut her out of the world? Were they embarrassed to have a blind daughter. Did they hate her...did they cover up their hate by nonstop spoiling? She felt as if no one has ever loved her. She has always been alone. A few tears started forming, than a few swam down her cheek. She came to a mossy creek and jumped up to a rock. She felt gaara near by. His heartbeats where odd. She walked over until she could see him. His back was to her and when he turned around, she saw that his eyes where also full of tears. More tears flowed down her cheek, and more water poured from the sky. They stood facing each other for a while. Toph could not help herself, she felt a connection towards gaara. She walked up and sat in front of him
"I...I dont want to be alone anymore..." was all toph has to say. Gaara leaned forward until there foreheads where touching. They stayed looking at each other and continued crying.
