Chapter Two

To: Sakura

From: Hinata

Re: Subject: A confession

If I have to be honest, I was taken aback when I read the first few paragraphs of your email. As I continued to read, I began to understand what you must have been feeling. Was I disgusted when you told me you masturbated to your teacher? No. Was I uncomfortable about it? Yes, because I don't talk about sexual things that often. As a matter of fact, I'm completely clueless about it. I had to look up "masturbate" online and the pictures that came up explained it all.

But don't worry. I don't judge you for wanting your teacher. I can understand what you are feeling, Sakura. You love him and you want to call him yours, but you're afraid to admit it to the world because society thinks it's wrong. That kind of love is the hardest of them all, because it is forbidden—especially the age gap you have and your position as his student, he your teacher.

However Sakura, I don't think you should hide in your room and refuse to go to school. I don't think you can even hide in there forever. I understand the fear you have, but I know that you are stronger than that. Besides, it's only him. And he's just a regular human being like you and me.

I'm sorry if this email is short and doesn't please you that much. I don't know what else to say, but I'm always willing to listen to you. I am very glad that you decided to confide your secret to me. Please don't hesitate to write more. I hope you'll be able to sleep and go to school again soon.

Good luck.

Hinata
