Proverbs 27: 19
As water reflects the face, so one's life reflects the heart
Flashback
There was a cricket somewhere in his room
His bed creaked with each breath he took
Keeping him hopelessly awake all night
With a deep sigh, Sasuke swung his legs over to one side of the bed
Squinting in the dead of the night
He shuffled his way to the tiny kitchen of his apartment
To his disappointment, the last bottle of beer was empty
He could relate to that he supposed
He ran a hand through his hair
Supposed it's not too late to buy some more
With that, he took hastily put his cloak and headed out
He wishes he could be as dead as the streets of Kohona at 3 am
The stupid dobe had somehow convinced the entire village that he should be granted another chance
So, he was stuck here until he could prove he wasn't a threat to humanity
This village was a threat to his psyche
When he closed his eyes, he saw his victims
When he walked through the bustling restaurant by day, he smelled blood
When he sees a mother, he is reminded of the massacre of his entire family
When he touches his forehead, something he does absentmindedly now, he feels his brother's touch
He has to start there – his brother- the only thing keeping him here perhaps
Today was his first day without the Anbu guards who watched him closely these past six months
Maybe he should test out his new-found freedom
He purchased a pack of beer and a shovel
