Finally I convinced my parents to make us go home cause' of my too much complaining about the beach we went to. I told them I didn't like the place and it was ugly blah blah blah.

Chapter 29: It's Just A Memory

"Wha-What?" Sasuke asked confused.

"I'm sorry… I just… don't know you…" Sakura said smiling. She was too friendly.

How he missed the way she smiled at her like this. It caused him pain. He shed a tear.

"Don't play with me Sakura… you don't know how much pain I've lived through trying to tell you the truth that you didn't want to hear." He said holding her a little bit too tight. It must have frightened Sakura cause she stood up and lost her smile.

"I don't know what you're talking about…" she said taking a step back.

"Sakura please!" Sasuke said moving fast toward her again.

"Let go!" Sakura said as she started to run.

"Sakura!" Sasuke said as he followed her. This was his time. This time no more Ishize and her stupid followers to keep watch of him since they thought that Sakura was dead. But they were wrong. She was so much alive! He even held her. Hugged her back and received her warm smile once more.

He ran for her.

She looked back making puffs of water vapor in front of her face every time she exhaled hot tired breath.

He was still following.

"Sakura please!" Sasuke shouted in seeing her figure.

She moved heading for downtown.

"Yes!" she breathed out. There was a crown of people. This place was freakily on her CITY THAT IS NOCTURNAL list. She ran through the crowd. She was cared… the man was still following her. The psycho.

"Sakura!" Sasuke shouted. He saw the crowd of people as he turned the block. "Shit!" he'll never find her in this sea of fishes now.

He sighed and punched the wall beside him. "Damnit!" he shouted.

Sakura panted as she slowed down. She looked back. He wasn't there.

"Phew" she bent down and put her hands on her knees to support her weight that was begging her to stop running around.

She rested there for a while and once she got her strength back, she gulped and stood up straight once more as she walked headed for home.

/-.ü.-\\--/-.ü.-\\

"Who ran after you?" the girls asked once more the following morning.

"I've told you a thousand times! It was a handsome raven haired man with onyx eyes. He was talking about living in pain all these years cause' I didn't give him the chance to explain the truth. I didn't know what the hell he was talking about and then he held me a little-" Sakura was cut off.

"We know that part well!" Tenten said. "he held you tight and you were scared so you ran for it…" she added.

"Just a sec." Ino said pulling the girls away from Sakura to a place where she wasn't in he condo at the moment.

"Well… Sasuke found her… and I don't think he's fooled if she tells him her name is Sayuki." Ino said as she huddled the girls up.

"Well… he wanted to tell her the truth… whatever that is… what if it's best not to trick him…" Hinata said thoughtfully.

"Hinata c'mon! is something like that ever present in your mind right now? You saw how Sakura was really hurt when he DITCHED her for ANOTHER woman!" Ino said rolling her eyes with a brow raised.

"Let's stick to the "him not knowing Sakura" plan for now… if the time is right and that he really does come clean which I have 50/50 percent chance of liking or not right now… then we'll tell him… but I think it's best for Sakura to listen to him and to explain to him what happened… if HOPEFULLY her memories come back… I do miss the old Sakura…" Tenten said lowering her head a bit.

"Okay then…" Ino and Hinata said as they breaked and went back to Sakura.

"Just don't mind the guy much Sakura… you know him but it's in it or you if you want to find out if he's a psycho who just acts like he knows people or someone whom you think is worthy of your time…" Tenten looking at her with a small smile.

"Ok…" Sakura said a little bit softly. Was her friends hiding something from her? If they did… maybe it was for her own good right?

"Well then now that's settled… are you gonna continue helping out at the flower shop?" Ino asked.

"Yeah… but I feel like helping out tomorrow… I think I need to settle in on a few things." She said tucking her hair behind her ear.

"Okay then…" Ino said as she gave her a hug. The other girls did the same and went out her door.

She sighed.

"Sakura…" Kyo said looking at her. It seemed like he was invisible the whole time the girls were talking. Poor him.

"Yeah?" she asked looking at her boyfriend smiling.

"Don't try to look or have a very long conversation with that guy okay?" Kyo said looking at another direction.

"Why?" she asked once more.

"Just don't… he's bad news believe me… if you don't want to get hurt again… just do what I say." With these last words he stood up and left the room.

Sakura looked at the ground.

Again? What did that mean… She thought as put a hand over her mouth.

/-.ü.-\\--/-.ü.-\\

"Mom?" Ishize knocked on her mom's door in her office that same afternoon. All hasn't seen her mom since this morning. All she told her was that she may not be with her the whole day cause' she's got some important business to follow up.

"Mommy… can I play in your office?" Sikaru asked making airplane noises as he moved his state of the art newly bought miniature airplane through the atmosphere.

"Sure honey…" Ishize said as he kissed him on the forehead. "I love you!" she shouted as he ran for her office.

She smiled.

"Mom!" she knocked once more but this time a little bit harder.

"Guess it won't hurt if I take a little peek." She said as she held the doorknob and inhaled.

She turned it and entered her mom's eerie dark office. She shivered.

"Mom?" she called out as she walked through the room.

This was weird. Her mom was ALWAYS in her office.

She figured checking out her mom's stuff. Ever since she was little and touching her mom's stuff, she always got scolded at to not touch anything cause it wasn't any of her business according to her mom.

"Weird…" she said as she looked at her mom's desk. No documents, no papers of files, no rating for the month's progress. No nothing. Just a clean table.

She checked the drawers.

Nothing too…

She checked the garbage can.

Finally… 2 stupid crumpled pieces of paper. It was probably nothing but her itching feeling that something her mom was hiding from her could be written here.

She picked up the paper and opened it making small uncrumpling noises.

What a stupid dirty hand writing.

Was this even the writings of a human?

She tried to read it. She made out a few letter which made her have a guess on the while word.

Sahri…

You're overdue in paying! You have to pay after 24 hours for all of the drugs you bought. Meet us at the harbor near the abandoned bar. If you're to be caught shipping all those drugs don't you ever try to report us too and make us take half the blame! This was your idea to save your business. Don't forget! 24 hours!

Chihiyo

"What the?" Ishize trembled holding the small piece of paper…

"No…" she breathed out as she crumpled the paper and put it back in the trashcan.

She picked up the other one that was left.

Sahri,

Finally! The forged paintings you sold made us billions! Continue this thing you do and we'll be richer in no time! Just be careful cause' police are starting to itch on our necks… they even checked the shed last night. Good thing we already cleared out all the painting in there. Please send some more guards and more guns… we need these if ever those idiotic police come back again.

Sashize

"Mom… but…" she threw the little piece of paper in the garbage can once more.

There was once more place she haven't searched in her mom's office now…

She stepped on a piece of plastic wrap under her mom's desk which had a bookshelf behind the desk of her mom open to a hidden room.

She remembered how she got to find this place a long time ago.

She was fiddling with stuff until she stepped on the stupid plastic wrap which had opened the same lair before. She found nothing before but what she found now…

"Oh my god…"

Stacks of drugs were piled up in the room. Probably ready to be shipped. Piles of money that was probably earned from the sick drugs she sold. Stacks of paintings made by famous people who were in top guarded museums now were piled up too, those were probably the illegal forged paintings.

"Mom… how could you…" she said as she pulled a book from the bookshelf to close the hidden room.

As soon as it shut, she turned around to run but unfortunately… bumped into her mom.

"What were you just doing?" her mom asked with a nasty brow raised.

"Noth-"

"Ishize… come here…" her mom said with a bright smile.

She moved closer though her heart was pounding.

"Mom how could you…" she said with a scared tone in her voice.

"You don't ever tell anyone about this okay Shizi… you don't want the business and me to go tip top off the top and me in jail… remember you're my daughter and you're gonna be suspected as well…" her mom said smiling even wider.

"But w-"

"Shizi… it's just business… if you want to make money quick then you have to break a few rules." Sahri explained. "Even you used some bad moves to get your man…"

"But that's different… this is too much…" she said as she moved to think of a plan to get out.

"Don't even think of getting out just yet… " Sahri said as she moved for the door and standing in front of it to prevent Ishize from going out. "Remember honey… don't speak a word and everything will be okay…" she said opening the door now for her daughter.

Ishize gulped. Her mom was right… she just needed to shut up. As soon as she closed the door Sahri lit up a match and burned the pieces of paper that was in her garbage can.

Ishize ran to her office to find Sasuke playing with their son.

"Shizi?" Sasuke asked looking at the sweaty Ishize. "What happened?" he asked pretending to be concerned.

"Nothing" she said after she gulped and smiled.

"Mommy look! Daddy fixed plane! It broke a while ago… and now it flying once more!" Sikaru said showing Ishize the plane that had a little bit of glue obvious on the outside part of it.

Sakura woke up the following morning to be greeted by a note on top of Kyo's pillow.

She stretched with yawn and rubbed her eyes. She scratched her itchy back and moved her hand to get the note.

"Sakura…" she said as what she saw on the note then she gave another yawn.

"Take care of yourself… groceries… be back at 9… I'm thinking of talking to architect… gonna make a restaurant… for both of us… blahblahblah… love you" she ended as she gave another long yawn. She threw the paper in her garbage can and soon up scratching her back once more.

She headed for the bathroom, too a bath and dressed up. What a fresh morning.

She headed for the flower shop. She promised Ino she would help Today…

She walked towards the shop with people asking her if she was buried alive, if she was Sakura, if she copied Sakura cause' they know that would be bad, if she was Sakura's twin and stuff. Man was this town too nosy.

Her phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Sakura… it's Kyo… how would it sound if I build you your own shop to sell new electronics?" Kyo asked happily. "You'd get big profit…" he added having the great idea just pop in his head a while ago.

"Sure!" Sakura said happily as she walked on smiling.

"Okay great… I'll just tell the architect to talk to you later on with how you want the shop to look like… I found this perfect spot. Plus it's big for the shop…" Kyo said happily.

"Okay… I gotta go… I'm at Ino's already. Bye love you!" she shut her phone.

"Hi Ino!" she called out taking off her coat.

"Hi! Oh… just put your coat here… the world's gone crazy eh? It's summer and it's cold… this is probably the global warming Shikamaru was yabberig to be about when I burnt all that plastic in out backyard last night." Ino said rolling her eyes with a chuckle.

"Is it okay if I lend you the store for a while? Yukumi wanted to buy something in a place 3 blocks from here… I promise I'll be fast" Ino said with a smile.

"Sure…" Sakura said positioning by the counter.

"Thanks Sak!" Ino said hugging her and disappearing out the door.

There were a thousand calls for reservation of a type of flowers for a wedding and party… hundreds of customers too. My… Ino's probably earning millions by day. In a matter of speech that is.

Sakura looked at her watch. It has just been 10 minutes and already half of the store was empty.

The door opened once more.

"Goodmorning… may I help you?" she asked with her back to the customer since she was filling up the vases that hadn't have flowers in them cause' of too much buying.

"Yeah… a bouquet of blue roses with purple orchids please…" the man said.

"Okay… just wait a sec…" she said as she went for the backroom to get the flowers he ordered.

That voice sounded familiar… she thought since she didn't even look at the guy cause; of being too much busy.

She picked up the flowers and was prepared to open the door until a sharp pain shot through her head and something flashed in her mind. Some blurry images with familiar voices.

Things that ran in her head…

"What are you saying?" she heard her own familiar voice ask.

"It means that I was jealous!" a man with her I a kitchen said.

"But what does being jealous mean?" she asked once more.

"It means that I was jealous seeing you with him or with other guys cause I like you okay?" the man admitted.

"I do too but that doesn't give me the reason to be that jealous!" Sakura answered.

"Not as a friend!" the man continued.

Sakura once again had her eyes wide.

"What I mean is that…" the man gulped. "I like you, more than just my friend"

"Don't fool around Sasuke… that's just too sudden" Sakura said.

"I'm not fooling around…" the man named Sasuke said seriously as he too stood up and went near Sakura and tucked her hair behind her ear.

"I'm serious…" he then moved closer to her face and in an instant their lips touched.

After the kiss Sakura was bright red.

"Sasuke…I…" Sakura was smiling… "Thank you Sasuke" she said as she hugged him and kissed his lips once more

Sakura opened her eyes to find herself standing in the backroom of Ino's flower shop.

Was that just a memory that flashed in my head… she said trying to gulp for air.

The pain that had just struck her head felt like it was gonna' split her skull in two.

For some reason it had appeared to her a few days ago another memory of this guy.

Who are you Sasuke…
