Dear Lee-
I'm running an errand for Tsunade, don't wait up for me. Dinner is in the fridge; just heat it up.
Love, your Sakura
(respectfully)
Dear Tsunade-sama,
I would like to request a day off tomorrow. I know you wanted me to go over the scrolls in the west-wing archive, and I have done so tonight. I've also taken the liberty of reorganizing them; you'll find the notes on the order with this letter. Having informed you that tomorrow's work is done, I once again respectfully ask to be excused tomorrow, October tenth. There are personal matters that I cannot neglect.
Sincerely, Haruno Sakura
(chidingly)
Kakashi-sensei,
I heard you had Icha-Icha Tactics with you when you were subbing for Iruka's third-year class. Third years! For shame, Kakashi-sensei!
Sakura
P.S. Don't you dare be late for Naruto's birthday party.
(lovingly)
Dear Lee,
I have to leave for a week-long mission with Neji and Naruto, so I hope you'll find this when you get back. I just wanted to tell you that I really love your gift; it's beautiful and I really thank you for it. But more than that, I wanted to tell you that I'm so thankful to have you- you are sweet and kind and amazing. Take care of yourself while I'm away, okay? I love you.
Love always, your Sakura
(secretly)
Dear Sasuke-kun,
I'm never mailing this, you're never reading this.
Well- god damn you. God damn you Sasuke, for leaving. You don't see everyday what you've done to Naruto.
I'm starting to lose hope that you'll ever come back.
And I think I wish I could hate you, for what you've done to Konohagakure, what you've done to Naruto, what you've done to me.
But I don't. Because in spite of this- I still dream about you sometimes.
(desperately)
Naruto-
Please Naruto, I'm worried about you. You think that nobody can see the way you are now, but you're wrong. I can see it- you're running yourself ragged. Please take care of yourself. God, Naruto, I know you've had it rough- always had it rough, and I am so sorry- but please, whenever something's wrong, come to me, talk to me. Or anyone! Naruto, you know we care. You know I care, very much. I can't always promise to be there physically, but I promise that I'm your friend always.
Love, Sakura.
