CHAPTER 6
THE CALL
Now it's already been a year and two months since sasuke left. I'm not surprise that sasuke didn't return my letter. But I'll wait for him whatever it takes. It's almost time for summer too. In just a month, school is going to end. It would be sad this summer though, because whenever summer would come, me and sasuke's schedule would be full. Half of the summer, we spend time in his house and we always have a marathon segment for watching movies. And then we go swimming, fishing, go to the mall, have a stroll in the park, EVERYTHING! (she sighed) Right now, I'm with hinata and naruto, who just happen to hook up just a week ago. Sometimes, I get really jealoous when naruto would talk about her whenever were together. I felt that it must be really good to have someone special in your heart love you too. But it just led up to me thinking of sasuke again. Sometimes I wonder if he still loves me. I even think that maybe he had already forgotten me. Now I know that it must have really been painful for him. When I think of our past memories together, it hurts like hell. (she was stuck in her thoughts)
Naruto : Sakura-chan! it's your turn to sing!
Sakura : uh.. HUH? (she wasn't aware that they went inside a karaoke room)
Sakura : oh! i'm so sorry. Naruto, why don't you just enjoy the night with hinata? i'll just go home. I don't really feel like going out all of a sudden.
Hinata : Are you sure sakura-chan?
Sakura : uhm. yes. you two have fun. see you guys at school ok? bye.
Both : bye sakura-chan. (she left)
( hinata frowned )
Naruto : what's wrong hinata-chan?
Hinata : would she be alright?
Naruto : I think that... she just miss hanging out with sasuke.
Hinata : i see. should we be worried then?
Naruto : Maybe a bit. But then again, I know she would be ok.
Hinata : if you say so naruto-kun. (she blushes)
Naruto : your blushing!! what's the matter?
Hinata : i... i was... i was just wondering if you can sing me another song naruto-kun.
Naruto : anything for you! ( they continued to sing )
10 : 00 PM
( she went home and directly took a shower after )
RING... RING... ( telephone rings )
( sakura hurriedly went down and answered the phone )
Sakura : hello?
voice : goodevening. is this miss sakura?
Sakura : speaking. who's this?
voice : Sakura dear. this is Mikoto, sasuke's mother. Do you still remember? ( she was clueless )
Sakura : Mrs. Uchiha?
Mikoto : Yes dear. How are you?
Sakura : I'm fine ma'am. Is there something up? why did you suddenly called?
Mikoto : There is something I wanted to discuss with you sakura. Is this a good time?
Sakura : It's fine Mrs. Uchiha. What would you want to discuss?
Mikoto : you see. I know it's almost your summer vacation. Am I right?
Sakura : Yes. In just about a month.
Mikoto : I actually want you to spend your summer vacation here, sakura.
( shocked )
Mikoto : I'm really doing this for the sake of sasuke...You see I've been worried about him lately. He seems to be so...
Sakura : Empty? she finished.
Mikoto : exactly.
Sakura : I feel the same way. Ever since he left, everything about him seems to come back to me all. I realized then that I love him all along. I just wished that I haven't hurt him. ( oh my god. what am I saying. I'm talking to her mother!! )
Mikoto : ( giggles ) ( imagining them married )
Sakura : I'm so embarrassed. ( blushes )
Mikoto : Please think about my offer dear.
Sakura : I wonder. I sent Sasuke a letter and a package two months ago. How did he react?
Mikoto : When he got the package, he was quite shock. But I saw him the other night holding that stuffed pig. I also saw your picture in a frame in his desk.
Sakura : really ma'am? So he doesn't have a girlfriend?
Mikoto : (laughs) You're so silly dear! of course he'll never replace you! I can tell by his eyes when I talk to him about you.
Sakura : ( cries ) I'm so glad.
Mikoto : there there. No need to cry dear.
Sakura : I was thinking of visiting him sooner or later but he might not want to see me.
Mikoto : He just needed time I guess. But a year and 2 months is enough right?
Sakura : I guess so. Does this mean you've told him that you'd invite me in your home?
Mikoto : I'm about too. I also invited Naruto but he said that he can't leave her new girlfriend behind so he'll just follow. ( sigh ) Young love.
Sakura : I'll think about it. And I'll also talk to my mom about it. Thank you very much for calling. Take care.
Mikoto : Alright. Your welcome. Goodnight.
( she hang up the phone )
Sakura : I'm so glad. Sasuke still cares for me...
I'm home! her mom shouted and closed the door behind her.
Sakura : mom. Can I talk to you?
What about sakura?
Sakura : Well. You know the mother of Sasuke right?
Of course. We were childhood fiends and we still are.
Sakura : Uhm... well... uhm...
Get it over with sweetie.
Sakura : She's inviting me to spend my summer in the US... but I said I'll think about and I'll ask you first because your my mom and it's really far away and... I can't go right?
What are you saying sakura!
Sakura : I knew it...
Of course you can go! Sasuke will be there right? If you want you could even spend the last year of your high school there. It would be great!
Sakura : eh? ( this is so unexpected )
Then you could just go home here during holidays and such! and then one day you'll just go home with a child and I'll see you and sasuke together... happy... and married.. ( she is now living in a fantasy with starts in her eyes )
Sakura : mom!!
You could go dear.
Sakura : yehey!! Thank you mom!
You're an only child. So don't worry about money.
Sakura : hehehe.
