Dear Sasori, August 6th
Sasori.. Hmm. Don't you feel almost exposed now that I know your name? :D I might also miss our strange conversations about strangers. However, and I am telling you only because we are now on a first name basis, I like starting the letter with your name. Do not tell anyone, though. It will be our secret, Sasori. :P
The TV project sounds very cool! Maybe I could help you out, give you my opinion, that sort of thing? I've never been really crafty, but the idea of creating something was always intriguing to me – might be why I chose to at least create stories and articles if I can't do anything proper otherwise. I can cook, kinda, but I don't think that should count as a craft, haha.
As for studying, let's just say that there is a lot of reading involved, most of which is almost as boring as all the nurses from the hospital! Honestly, last night I fell asleep while reading laws. When I woke up in the morning, the book was under me, I don't know how I managed not to wake up with that thick thing digging into my side. Also, how can anyone aspire to be a lawyer is beyond me! I have few courses that are about different laws and it is torture. Slowly but surely I am getting back into some sort of routine, though. So that is good, at least.
I am just about to make myself dinner and then do some more reading, but I think I will choose something else today, I still have some books that I bought last summer in a discount that I haven't read yet, so I might pick one of those up.
I hope that there won't be that many late nights at work for you, I'm sure that Yasmine would miss you.
Well, I am famished, so I will go. Have a lovely night, Sasori.
Yours truly
Sakura
P.S.: Alright, then. Keep your secrets. (You will understand this better after this weekend)
Dear Sakura, August 9th
Should I also creep you out by putting your pretty name randomly throughout the letter, Sakura? Do you feel exposed, Sakura? Don't tell anyone, but I liked it, too, Sakura.
I think that nowadays almost every subject at the university will have at least something to do with law, even if just for one semester, I guess it's a trend. Or they feel like if they put a bit of law study in the mix that will be the one subject that everybody hates and appreciate the rest of the study more?
As for the project, I would like you to be involved, if that is what you wish, however, I still don't have the slightest clue about what to do. Right now, the priority is to finish the custom pieces that we have at the shop, so the soonest I could start would probably be next week. This weekend I wanted to try to get some ideas, just go to the sea for a while with a sketchbook and see if an idea presents itself. But if you think of something, I am all ears.
Today I managed to get home a bit earlier, but Yasmine still screamed at me as if I have not fed her for a week. Which, for the record, is not true. I get the feeling she would sooner miss her food, rather than me, that beast.
Tomorrow is already Friday, I am not even sure where this week went. My job gives me great satisfaction, but sometimes the days start to blur together for me.
Now I will cuddle with the ball of fur on my sofa, have dinner and try to do some sleeping. Wish me luck, Sakura.
Your friend

Actually, I do feel a little exposed. And being my paranoid self, I checked the door and the windows after your last letter. Because that is very logical of me, hah :D
I was really hoping you'd agree, btw. I might have done a bit of googling and I have an idea. So, here it is. I saw some pictures of wooden doors with carvings on them and they looked so pretty. I spend almost two hours just looking at the beautiful images and scenes that someone made. I know that it is probably not the most common thing and it is rather specific – well, more so than for example a table. But I gave it a thought and that thought is that door open new opportunities for us, they make us see something new, every time we step through them. And if they look gorgeous before we open them, that's a plus, right? :D
They could be the opportunity that you and your workshop needs :)
Now that I am writing it down it sounds a bit silly, haha, but seriously, I blame Pinterest.
Scratch that cute animal behind ears from me, okay?
Yours truly
Sakura
Dear Sakura, August 9th
I don't think it is silly at all, it is a wonderful idea. I am already getting some visions of it in my head. Actually, I will grab my sketchbook right now, give me a moment.
I am not sure why I wrote that you should wait, although I still need to finish this letter first and you will probably read it in one go. Must be all the designs that are floating around in my brain. Maybe we could depict some story in the wood? Or we could add some metal elements to the door, making them partially see through. Hmm. So many possibilities.
You are my muse, Sakura.

AN time: I am blown away with the kind reviews that you guys have given me, as well as how many of you are reading this fic from the shadows (yea, I see ya :P ) Like I said in the first chapter, updates for this fic will hopefully be monthly. It's almost incredible how much I can procrastinate although I have this massive desire to write. It's a phenomen..
So, one more time, shoutout to the lovely people who left me some words! They made my day. And the day after. As well as some more days after that XD
jacpin2002: I am super happy that you like the concept. It has given me some troubles when I was trying to figure out how to make it work, but it just felt right for the type of story that I wanna tell. Hopefully, you like the new chapter.
Synchronicity911: Yaay, thanks a lot ^^ here's a continuation, haha!
ollia: I can never thank you enough for your reviews, but I will always try :D Yes, I wanted to keep it sort of secret, who he is, but then it just made more sense to put in in a tag on ffnet right away. And not to spoil anything, but he might get a bit carried away with some things in the future :P We will all have to see, including me, because other than some rough outline, I have no idea what Sasori will come up with, he writes himself, really xD
As for the way the letters start and finish, I addressed that as well, because although I knew I wanted them to give each other their names, it felt almost like a completely separate discussion that they were having and it was a joy to play with that. But I did not want it to become too much :D
