Worth

Chapter 4

School was a bitch. Life was a bitch. Everything was a bitch.

I was so mad at everything that people were avoiding me and I was avoiding people. Naruto had tried to talk to me but every time I found a way to escape.

I didn't want to talk to that traitor. I didn't want to talk to anyone.

I was breaking inside. I was a mess. I couldn't understand how I had good marks anyway. People tend to think that because I'm a daddy's girl, I didn't have good marks. But I was one of the best of the school.

I was counting days before graduation. I couldn't wait to just escape this world. Every time, I was almost running out the building of hell named "School".

"Sakura." said a voice I knew. This time, it was Ino. I ignored her and continued my way. "Sakura, please. I only want to talk."

"Well I don't." I respond, continuing my way.

"Sakura, I know that you're mad but… I only want a moment together. We could go shopping or go to Starbucks or anything you want." she pleaded.

"Sorry Ino. I only do those things with friends, not traitors."

She froze. I part of me only wanted to go run in her arms and cry, saying that I was sorry and that she'll always be my best friend but words had came faster and I was too prideful to turn back what I said.

So I continued my way, my heart breaking in the way.

Of all the bitches of this world, I was the worst.

"Sakura, wait!" I heard. I turned to see Ino running after me.

"Why?" I wondered.

"Sakura… I know you are mad but I really care about you. You are my best friend since we're five and I'm sorry that when you needed me I wasn't there… I'm sorry this ended like that but whatever happen, I'll always be your friend so please, don't be mad at me."

"Well…" I said after a moment. "You should have thought about this before."

I ran away.

I ran before she could think of coming after me.

The why I was doing was doing that was now simple. I was a coward. I was scared of the change. When you're use of something, you just don't for a change. I was doing the same. I was escaping reality.

I arrived home and went directly to my room. I didn't want to talk to anyone. My dad was bugging me to be sure of my future and all but I couldn't think about it. I was already inscribed to go to medical school but I had said my dad that I could change idea. It's so easy to have what you want when you're rich that, at some point, it's scary.

Anyway, I was sure I, well some part of me, wanted to be a doctor but I was so mess-up. I hadn't told anyone about my childhood dream to be doctor. Maybe, a long time ago, I told it to Naruto but I think he didn't remember.

Sometime passed, an hour or two, I'm not sure, and my dad called me.

"Sakura, darling, you have a guest."

To be polite, I went down the stairs to see who was this guest, thinking too that if it was someone I didn't want to see, I could escape easily.

"I hope you can help her. Sakura had been acting strange those days. I still hope she wants to go to medical school… she's like her mother, she likes to help…"

"DAD!" I screamed as I enter the living room where my dad was talking to Naruto. My dad was surprised, like he didn't know that he shouldn't tell.

"Well, I'll let you kids alone. I have a supper I have to assist." And my dad went in his room.

"You still want to go to medical school? I thought…" Naruto started but never finished.

"You thought what?" I asked bitterly. "You thought that I can't? I'm too stupid? I'm to much of a bit-"

"I never said any of those. I just thought you had abandoned the idea. I think it's great!" He was smiling so sincerely.

"Yeah right." I said, sarcastically. I turned around to no face him anymore. I knew he'd be piss.

"Sakura-chan, I… Why you said all those things to Ino-chan?" This question caught me off guard. I turned back to see he was looking hurt.

"Why? … How?" was the only sound that came out of my mouth.

"I saw Ino-chan earlier and she was devastated. Why you said all that? I'm sure you didn't mean half what you said! You hurt her so much and-"

"WHY DO YOU EVEN CARE?" I screamed. It took him by surprise. "Why you care so much about Ino? I'm not important? She's more important to you now? Of course, I'm just the bitch and she was only the puppy following pink haired Cruella de Vil!"

"Sakura-chan, what are you talking about? I just-" he said, trying to calm me down but I was unstoppable. A huge wave of jealousy was making drown in my own insecurities.

"SHUT UP!" I screamed. He froze. He then tried to hug me but I step back. "Don't touch me."

And I ran again, not caring about Naruto's shout. I just ran away, my emotions getting too strong.

I felt like I was drowning and that I couldn't reach the surface.

I ran till I arrived to the park. Without realizing, I was crying. I sat on the swing, trying to calm my tears.

"Sakura…" the word were barely whispered. "You're crying…" I didn't need to turn my head to know it was Ino.

"I don't want to talk to you." I responded firmly.

"But… Sakura, I can't let go if I know you're hurting yourself!"

"Like you care!" I scoffed.

"Of course I care!" She said, putting herself in front of me.

"Then why did you betray me!" I screamed. "Why you do like you don't care! Why you flirt with Naruto like…" "Like he wasn't mine!" I wanted to add. But he wasn't technically mine so why…?

"You think I'm flirting with Naruto?" she asked, clearly surprised. I didn't respond. "You…" She didn't finished.

I looked at her to see she was thinking hard of what she should say. After a moment, she spoke.

"I'm not flirting with Naruto. You know why? Because I know he is in some way yours. I know you'd never forgive me if I lay a finger on him. But Naruto is a fine man. I'm sure he could have any girl he wants if he wasn't so stuck on you. Imagine if Hinata wasn't so shy, she would had made a move on him a long time ago. Plus, you're lucky he's still by your side and-"

"SHUT UP!" I screamed. This was too much. "Please, shut up."

"Why? Because you know that I'm right? I will not lie, Sakura. You are my friend and you need to no the truth. When you'll be willing to accept it, come and see me."

She turned around and went away. Letting me alone in my sea of insecurities.

She was right.

She was right.

And I was wrong.
