[Sakura 01]
Dear Sasuke,
It has, it feels like so much longer since you left, even though its only been a mere few months.
But we're all good here, thank you. I'm sure Kakashi is regretting his acceptance of the Hokage seat already - though, as I'm sure you can remember, being early for appointments is like his idea of personal hell.
Naruto is good too, an idiot, but good. I'm not sure how much longer I can cope with him buzzing with excitement at the prospect of Kakashi standing down. He's like a toddler on a sugar high, Sasuke… all the time. :(
But its nice that he's happy and finally getting what he's been working for all this time, I suppose.
I'm busy. Its amazing how many new medic nin students there are! I think the War really showed everyone what we can do but, of course, that means Shizune, Tsunade and I have our work cut out. Its a great experience though, I never thought I'd like teaching.
(Sai seems happy too. He's finding a lot more time for leisure which is good for someone like him, I think.)
I'm glad you're enjoying your travels - I'd love to see more of the world but here I am, sat in a cluttered office with nothing but paperwork to stare at, so please make the most of it!
You sound different since we last spoke, too. More relaxed or peaceful, maybe. Its comforting somehow but ha, you know me too well when you assume I'll still worry about you…
Just be sensible, Sasuke, please. If anything happens, anything at all, just send a letter (like this) and, well, I don't know what but we'll do something.
Sorry, I'm babbling and over a letter, how stupid.
Kakashi and Sai send their regards,
Naruto says something insulting that I'm not going to repeat,
Stay safe,
Yours,
Sakura
P.s. Your bird nearly gave me a heart attack when it tapped on the shower door this morning. I don't know how it got in but at least Katsuya has manners…
