I decided to write a response! It may not be as good, but after the comments of some people, I felt it was necessary. Thanks everyone! Enjoy!
Dear Shikamaru,
Is that really it, Shika? That you were stupid? Or was it something else? Or should I say, someone? I happened to be walking to Sakura's house yesterday (In tears might I add), when I caught a glimpse of something. If I'm not mistaken, I believe it was you and Temari. Hand in hand.
But it wasn't just that that sent me into misery. It was your destination. You were walking into the pottery shop, the same one that you and I had been in together just a few days before. You know, the one with the weird looking ducks and mantelpieces…but aside from that, there was something else. The small rose made from various colors of pottery, shining perfectly in the right light. There were only three. When we went in there, you picked up each one and tested it to see which shown in the light the most beautifully. Once you found out, you bought it for me. I was overjoyed. However, I went in there once more after you and Temari had left. There was then only one pottery rose left. When I asked the sales clerk she said "I believe a young man bought for a beautiful blond young lady only a few minutes ago."
Upon hearing this, I cried. I know that's one of the things that annoyed you most about me during our genin days. I cried about weird things. But even when I did, you comforted me. But now, as I sit here crying, you're not here to comfort me anymore. You're probably at home, arm around your "beautiful blond young lady", comforting her as she watches her pottery rose shine beautifully in the light, as I'm sure it does so more than mine.
Even so, Shika, I still love you. Although you may not love me, I can never forget the jump my heart made when you eased my sorrows, the happiness I felt after you successfully safeguarded my body in the duration of my mind-transfer jutsu…I will never forget it Shika. I will always love you, and I will always keep this pottery rose, even long after the light ceases to refract it's beauty.
Sincerely yours,
Ino
