Author's Notes: This is the English translation of the original fic Alaala sa Ilalaim ng Buwan, which I wrote in Filipino. I changed some phrases for a smoother flow and for improvement. This is narrated in Sakura's point-of-view. Many thanks to everyone who will read and review.
Memories Under a Full Moon
The night was almost at its end...but I still can't sleep.
Instead, here I am, under the stars, staring up at the night sky, with the moon's pale light as my only company.
I still remember...
A night just like this one...the night you went away.
Left Konoha.
Left everyone.
Left. Me.
No. Even if I tried to change your mind, you still would have left.
What am I to you anyway? No one, really.
Did you look at my eyes then?
When you said goodbye...
Tears. Slowly falling into the dry earth below.
Tears. I'm shedding tears again...
But what are they for now?
Nothing. Gone. You're gone now.
You're so...blind.
You didn't see. Didn't notice. The tears I cried then...now.
I love you.
If only you knew...would that be enough to stop you from leaving?
Maybe. Maybe not.
I will never know. You will never come back.
Here I am, under the stars, staring up at the night sky, with the moon's pale light as my only company.
Thinking. Of you.
Melancholy.

End Notes: Sorry if it's...too sad. And mushy.
