Divorce... Sakura still couldn't believe what she just heard. Sure, her parents argued a lot but she never thought it would lead to divorce. Not only were they divorcing, but Sakura was going to live with her mother from now on, and her father wouldn't be able to see her until she turned eighteen. Two years... Why was this happening to her? She didn't know.
Since that incident in the library when she met Sasuke everything was going fine. It's been a week and they were still looking for Neji, they still couldn't find anything but she was having fun with Sasuke and Naruto, although she would never admit it. Hinata was too stressed out so they didn't involve her. Sakura wanted to tell her but Naruto stopped her.
And on that day when she came home from school her parents told her about their divorce. She was currently in her room still shocked. She still couldn't understand why her father couldn't see her until she was eighteen. This was all just too much. She got up grabbed her coat, phone and earphones and went down the stairs. Her mother stopped her in the hallway.
"Where are you going, Sakura?"
"To take a walk." was her reply and she went out of the house. She didn't know where she was going, she just couldn't stay in the house. She started walking down the street and turned on Sia's "Alive".
"Earphones in, world out." she murmured. As the wind blow through her hair, her favorite part came on.
' I had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demong go
Where the wind don't change
And nothing in the ground can ever grow
No hope, just lies
And you're taught to cry into your pillow
But I survived
I'm still breathing
I'm still breathing
I'm still breathing
I'm still breathing
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive '
Sakura came to her favorite place in the whole city. It was a bridge that was over a little river. She stood there looking out into the distance. It was already dark and streets were mostly empty. She started crying.

Sasuke was walking through empty streets of Konoha. He liked walking late when there are not many people outside. This week was quite interesting. He spent most of his time with Naruto and Sakura and it was... fun, although he would never admit it. When he crossed the Senju street and reached a bridge, he saw a familiar figure standing over it. He immediately recognized her pink hair. 'What is she doing here?' he thought ' Wait... is she crying?' Without thinking he rushed to her. Sakura was indeed crying. When she felt his presence she turned around. Her eyes widened as she saw him and she immediately started wiping her eyes.
"Sakura..." was the only thing he managed to say. He didn't know how to react to her crying.
"What are you doing here?" She mumbled trying to sound as calm as possible.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah..."
"Right, that's why you were crying here all alone."
"I-I..." She couldn't keep it in anymore, tears started flowing again and as much as she wanted to stop it she couldn't. She hated it... Looking like this in front of Sasuke. " I'm-I'm sorry, I'm so so sorry." she cried.
She wanted to turn around and run but all these thoughts vanished as soon as pair of arms pulled her into a hug. Sasuke hugged her. Between her sobs she managed to murmur. " Thank you..."
