POV. INO

I can clearly recall the last time I doubted myself as much as I do now. It was before I met Chouji. Before I met you. I was big on the whole party scene. And I drank myself away.

I all pretty much began when I went through puberty. Around this time I started wanting to look…prettier. When I looked in the mirror I saw myself. But I was broken. My looks were bland. My face was boyish. My build boxed. And I was gaining weight.

To pout an end to it, I smashed every mirror that was in my house. I dyed my hair black. I quit eating and increased my training two-fold.

And I landed myself in the hospital.

A little while later I began sleeping around. I cut myself. I drank. I smoked. I shot heroin. I did all the drugs you can think of. Pot, LSD, hash, mushrooms, coke. The works.

Then Chouji came along. He said three words to me. "I'm helping you." He stayed with me day in and day out. He treated me like a princess. And we fell in love. The night we got married he told me something I will keep with me forever. "Ji Ai." Which means "Love One's Self."

I learned not to be vain and accept my looks. But I still had my insecurities. I scared off some of my friends with my new "that's-just-the-way-I-am" attitude. The would just smirk and say "You've changed."

You know, did you ever notice that when someone says those two words, it's because you've stopped living life their way? It's fucked up. I lost some of my greatest friends and that made me crave my old vices. But you and Chouji kept me away. But not by force. But with love.

A patch of snow plops onto my head. I blink my eyes and notice it's gotten dark. I stand up off of the park bench. I brush the snow off me. I sure have been here a while.

But it was worth it. I wipe at the corner of my eye out of habit. I stretch and a sudden euphoria comes over me. I feel I'm getting stronger. My happiness escapes me.

Thank you Chouji. My husband.

Thank you Sakura. My lover.

Thank you…
