I've change the title, the previous one was planned to be only temporary until a better one was found. The name of this drabble suits perfectly and I personally think it is the best one. This drabble takes place in the original universe, which by the way does not belong to me.

Enjoy!


Thank you

She missed him very much. But he wasn't there and didn't know about her pain. Sasuke betrayed his team, his village and finally her.

But whatever the reasons to hate him were, she couldn't tell her heart to stop loving him. It wasn't just a fangirl's crush or a girly infatuation with a handsome guy like it was once. Sakura loved him. She hasn't realized this until she desperately called out to him as he was leaving the village, probably forever. And after she said it, she understood that it wasn't a lie or desperate call for him to stay, she was really in love with him. And still he went away without even saying a proper goodbye.

Even though he always ignored her in the Ninja Academy, even though he found her weak and annoying in their Genin days, despite all of this Sakura knew for sure somewhere deep inside that he missed her, too.

And maybe that was the reason he said "Thank you" instead of "Farewell, maybe he had been planning to come back even before he left.


R&R please
