Apple Juice

Sakura sighed as she grabbed the can opener. She took it over to the can of apple juice she had on the counter. As she poked through the metal, she cringed at the popping sound it made, that sound always troubled her. She poked a hole on the other side too, once again cringing at that annoying popping sound.

She made her way over to the table with the juice can in her hand and set it down. She sat down. She hated the table in her house, it was so big and had so many empty seats, it reminded her that she was all alone. She picked at her muffin, but found that she wasn't all that hungry. She picked up the can of apple juice, and poured some into her glass. While the apple juice flowing out was yellow, it looked red to her, red blood flowing out of a wound; it reminded her of too many scars thathad etchedinto her heart.

A familiar feeling returned, the feeling of herself clamming up, her eyes becoming watery, her nose runny, her throat thickening, and her hands becoming shaky. She didn't want to cry, but it had become a regular event, a habit. She felt a warm, salty tear run down her face and she watched as it dripped into her glass of apple juice, in her mind becoming another drop of blood.

She shakily stood up and walked over to a picture frame that sat on her kitchen counter. It held to pictures, one of team 7, and one of her parents and herself. She found her body become more shaky, as to the fact no one in those pictures were still alive, her parents were gone, Sasuke was gone, Naruto and Kakashi too. And although she was still here, she felt just as dead as they were, just as lifeless.

And that's it. Hope you liked it, please review ♥
