[General POV]
The guy with red hair stood up from his earlier position. He then put his hands on his coat pockets. The pinkette put her hands on her lap, looking at it for a good couple of minutes. Then she tried to put a sincere smile on her delicate lips, as she was looking at the three surprising guests.
"Minna,ohayou..." She nodded her head politely, trying not to look at the raven haired man. He knew it. Whenever she does that, he will always know it. Avoiding his intense gaze directed at her, which was so captivating making her shudder at once.
"O-Ohayou, Sakura-chan. We're so sorry for interrupting your time." A woman with brown bright eyes looked at her emerald ones. At first, she looked a little bit hesitant, maybe because she caught them at that situation. But then she looked at her softly. "Someone begged me all the time to come here because he 'missed' his 'idol'." The woman giggled then glanced at her son.
"O-Okaa-chan! Ya-Yamete kudasai!" The boy's face was very, very red. He looked very ashamed cause of his mother. "A-Ano...gomen, Sakura Ba-chan. I...I just wanted to see you, Ba-chan. I didn't know that you're busy at this time...with that guy." Kousuke pouted and appointed Sasori with his eyes unfriendly. It seems he doesn't like him at all. All of a sudden, Kousuke hugged Sakura's legs, still looking at the red haired guy as if to say 'stay-away-from-my-Ba-chan'. Sasori only raised his eyebrows a second, then smiled hesitantly. Somewhere behind the brown haired woman, a man with onyx orbs smirked proudly, knowing what his son meant. Only Sakura noticed this.
Sakura's left hand touched Kousuke's shoulder and the other one stroked his hair. Kousuke only reached her mid-thigh. She smiled softly at the child. "It's okay, Kou-kun. It's my old friend, Sasori Ji-san. He's a good guy, I promise." However, Kousuke's embrace was getting tighter while looking at Sasori firmly. Sakura just sighed then smiled. Now she was looking at the boy's mother. "Ah, ohayou, Kaori-san. I'm so sorry for the...awkward situation but~aah...never mind. How are you? Long time no see." She tried her best to smile as always.
"Ah, yes, Sakura-chan, it's long enough, isn't it? Oh, don't worry about it. I'm the one who have to be sorry, for interrupting you and for my son's behaviour." Kaori smiled widely at her. "And please, Sakura-chan, you can call me Kaori. I thought I already told you several times about this. Just Kaori please, or Kaori-chan if you want." She grinned at the cherry blossom.
"H-Hai...Kaori...chan. I really am sorry, I forgot about that. Oh, about Kou-kun, I don't mind, really. He's an adorable kid." She smiled at her. Kaori smiled but stayed silent. But after a moment, she spoke up.
"Mmm...ano...eto..." Kaori looked curiously at the man with red eyes. Sakura looked at the man she was looking at. Sasori noticed this, so he smiled at her cordially and bowed politely. She bowed back at him.
"Gomen. I'm Sunamoto Sasori, Sakura's old friend at college."
"Aah...Sunamoto? As in...Sunamoto Chiyo?"
"Aa...hai." Sasori smiled again, hearing his grandmother's name.
"Eto...ah! Don't tell me~ ah~ then you must be Chiyo Baa-sama's only grandchild?"
Sasori laughed a little at her outburst, scratching the back of his head. "Hai, you're absolutely right, Uchiha-san."
"Ah, no need for formalities, please. Just calling me Kaori is okay." Kaori smiled sincerely at him. He smiled back, while secretly glancing at the raven man. He was trying to find some jealousy or something. It's not common for an acquaintance to call informally like that in a short moment, at the very first time they meet indeed. Unfortunately, there's none, other than his intense gaze at the pinkette girl. 'So my suspicion is right...' He talked to himself.
Suddenly, there were knocks on the door that interrupted their conversation. It was the baby blue haired girl, Hikari.
"Sakura-san~eh? Ah, gomen nasai. I thought it's only Sakura-san in here. I didn't know she had many guests at this time. A-Ano..." Hikari looked doubtful.
Sakura laughed softly. "No problem at all, Hikari-chan. So, is there something wrong?"
"Yeah, it's fine, Hikari-san. What's wrong?" Sasori asked politely.
"Ah, hai. Tsunade-sama calls for Sakura-san's presence now in her office, and Chiyo Baa-sama is searching for you, Tsunamoto-san."
"Hai, wakatte iru. Thanks for the info, Hikari-chan." Sakura smiled brightly to her.
"Dou itashimashite, Sakura-san. Well then, please excuse me." She smiled to everyone in the room and bowed before she left. As the door was closed, Sakura talked to all of them.
"I'm so sorry I can't accompany you all much longer. If you don't mind, I'll excuse myself now." She bowed and smiled. Sasori looked at her with his tender smile.
"Same with me, Sakura-chan. Chiyo Baa-sama is looking for me too."
"Oh, then we should get going too, ne? We can visit her later when she's not busy, right Kou-kun?" Kaori said while crouching down to look at her son's eyes. He pouted a little, but nodded anyway. This made Sakura giggled for a moment.
"Yeah. I have to take care some business too." Finally, Sasuke talked, still with his straight face. Somehow, Sasori knitted his brows, feeling something strange in his talks. The raven haired man turned his head and looked at him sharply with his onyx orbs for a moment. He looked back, yet stayed cool. He knew that guy doesn't like him at all, and same with him. But he tried to ignore it, and put his hand in his pants pockets again then followed right behind Sakura.
"Come on, Kou-kun." Kaori took Kousuke's hand and brought him out of the room. Sasuke followed his family too.
"Ja ne, Sakura Ba-chan! I'll come again later!" He waved and smiled happily to her, showing his little teeth. Sakura smiled, nodded her head and waved back to him. Sakura and Sasori stood side by side while looking at the family walk and turn left at the end of the corridor. Her smile faded slowly as they go, and Sasori noticed this. He cleared his voice to take her attention, and it works.
"Ah, gomen, Sasori-kun. Should we go now?" She tried her best to smile sincerely. Sasori just smiled slightly and nodded.
They went together but parted anyway to tend their own business.
[Sakura POV]
I stood outside of Tsunade-sama's office and leaned on the wall. I sighed deeply, hell...another heavy task. Damn, I seriously need some rests. Working like this will drains all of my energy. But still, I have to do it.
I stopped leaning on the wall, walking back to my office. I don't know why, but I just feel today is a tough day. 'Why must they came when Sasori was there? Why 'he' acted like that? As in...no care? Cold? Urgh, I hate that bastard for real!' Without awareness, I walked faster because of my anger. In a sudden, a hand grabbed my arm right when I was about turning to the left at the end of the corridor.
"Wha~!"
"We need to talk. NOW."
It was him. No more words, not even caring to wait for my respond, he dragged me so fast to wherever he wanted to go. I tried to keep up with his pace, making an effort not to fall or trip. So many thoughts in my head for why he did this and why he's still here. As he came closer to a room and opened the door, I got a chance to look at the name tag of the room. It was the "Storeroom" for medical supplies. We entered the room and he locked the door as fast as possible. I looked around and luckily, there was no one here. He grabbed my arm again and took me to the area where the stacks of supplies there. Then he pushed me to the wall in between two stacks, trapping me with his arms besides my head.
"Why. Was. He. There?" He emphasized every single words.
"What? Who? Who did you mean?" I swear, I was so confused at the moment. No wonder, I was walking to my office in peace...well...not really at the end, suddenly 'someone' took me here and interrogated me without reasons. Who does he think he is?
"You know exactly WHO I meant." He growled.
"Wha~What? Did you mean Sasori-kun?" Damn, I forgot the suffix. He widened his eyes for a moment, and then gritted his teeth.
"Don't ever call him THAT in front of ME."
"Sa-Sasuke..."
"Answer my question." I could see how much he tried his best to lower his voice, his anger clearly visible. Nevertheless, I still couldn't accept what he did to me. He has no right to know about it. I clenched my hands, turning my head from him and looking at the floor. I talked in a whisper to him.
"It's none of your business..."
I heard him growl to me. He grabbed my chin suddenly with his hand and made me look at his dark eyes. "Look at me when I talking to you."
With forced, I looked at him with hurt and anger eyes. He knitted his brows at me. I knew he knows it. "Now,answer my question...or else."
"What's wrong with him anyway? He's fine. What do you want, Sasuke?"
"Why was he touching you?" Right, so this is about jealousy.
"What? What did you mean by 'touching me'?"
"He was about to kissing you when I was came in with my family, right?" Oh, so NOW he mentioned about 'his family'. I'm so sick of it.
"So what?"
"I don't like it. No, I HATE IT."
"Wha~ Are you jealous, Sasuke?" I braved myself to being bold to ask him that. I know he doesn't like it at all.
"I hate it when anyone touching MY property. You're MINE, Sakura."
That's it. First, he mentioned his family calmly before, meanwhile he's having an affair with me. As if what we did all this time was nothing. Second, he said that I'm his. It's not fair. He's married, and I'm single. That's enough. I can't take it anymore. I shoved away his hand crudely.
"Who do you think you are, Sasuke? I already said it, it's none of your business! You're not my boyfriend, or even my husband! And I'm not YOUR property! I don't belong to anybody!"
It was his turn to clench his hands. As he did that, he looked down and somehow I could hear him growl again. His bangs covered his eyes, so I couldn't see it. Suddenly, he grabbed my waist and kissed me. He kissed me hungrily, forcing me to open my mouth so his tongue can enter it. I tried to not give in or let him do that. I kept my lips closed, shutting my eyes and trying to fight him. He was so stubborn, not wanting to lose from me. Then he slid down his hand from my waist to my bottom. He grabbed it as hard as possible and it made me gasp. Because of it, his tongue succeed to enter my mouth and battled it with mine, moaning softly as if he enjoying it. I felt disgust by his action and that was my limit. I pushed him away from me, tried to breath normally and then looked at the ground. My pink bangs covered my eyes, but I could see he looks a little bit shock for what I did. Great, that bastard was taking almost all of my breath. The next thing I do : I slapped him hard on the face.
"I hate you..." That was the last thing I said to him in a whisper before my tears escaped from the verge of my eyes. I hurriedly unlocked the door and went outside of the room. I turned right in a rush and unfortunately, I hit something hard. I didn't see it cause I still looked down back then. I saw a chest, a man's chest for sure. When I looked up...
Oh. My. God.
It was Sasori. He looked at me, noticing that I was crying. One thought that was running in my head : I hope he was not hearing our conversation.
"Sakura-chan...why you~" He tried to touch my cheek but I didn't let him. I stepped back a little.
"I'm so sorry...Sasori...kun..."
I put my hand on my mouth to hold back my sob. Slowly, I retreated from him and then turned back to run away from him.
"Sakura-chan, wait!"
I heard him calling my name, but I didn't care. I ran away as far as my feet can take me.
I don't want to see him...nor Sasuke...for now...
