Chapter 4: Oishi Cafe

Konnichiwa minna-san! I'm here to continue the story! Thank you for the review! I'll do my best from now on! Not like i didn't do it in the first place though... sorry for the late update! I got no inspiration whatsoever lately T_T

Sakura: well! Theseonyxeyes doesn't own Naruto!

Naruto: then... who does?

Sasuke: (sigh) It's masashi kishimoto, baka

Kakashi: (sulk) i have failed to teach my students

Sakura: (sweatdropped) well, enjoy the story!

Sakura and Ino have finished their history class and went to social study class together with Tenten and Hinata. Luckily, their social teacher, Asuma Sarutobi, didn't come and there was no substitute teacher. The class went crazy! Naruto was telling the whole class about the history of ramen when he was telling Sasuke how delicious ramen is until Sasuke decided to tell him otherwise. Sai drawed a picture of Sakura talking to Ino while Neji ignored Lee's compliment about how youthful he was than him.

Now, the school ended and the students hurried to go to their house, away from the school as fas as possible. Unfortunately for our four girls, they won't be enjoying the first day of summer vacations because they will be working at Yukiji's Cafe, 'Oishi'.

The girls changed their shoes and stepped out the school. They headed to the cafe gloomily. "Okay guys! Let's go to the Cafe and get this work over with! We don't want to be late for Iruka-sensei's method acting slash sleepover now do we?", Ino said cheerfully, trying to convince her bestfriends.

"Well, maybe you're right. Besides, it's only one day", Tenten said followed by a nod from Hinata. Ino looked at Sakura questioningly. Sakura has been spacing out since the beginning of the conversation, "Sakura, you have been spacing out a lot lately".

Sakura's head snapped up from the road when she heard her name, "what did you say?". Ino sighed in frustration, what's going on with her bestfriend slash rival? It's not like her to be quiet and not noticing her surroundings.

"Sakura-chan, why are you always spacing out?", Hinata asked without stutter. Ino and Tenten felt proud for her because they have managed to help Hinata from stuttering. Sakura laughed nervously, "Oh it's nothing, don't worry about me Hinata". Tenten and Ino threw her worried glances, but when Sakura acted like her normal self again they sighed in relief.

They arrived in front of a medium sized cafe painted in cream and brown, flowers in their pots are arranged nicely on its sides, there are a few chairs and tables arranged outside the cafe. A red-headed woman stood outside waiting for them, hands crossed and lips curved into a smile.

"Oh thank you all for joining me today! Please changed your school uniform into your work uniform and begin serving the customers!", she said happily. The four girls nodded their head and walked to their changing room.

Oishi Cafe is a maid cafe, which mean that the waitresses wears french maid costume as uniforms, act as servants, and treat customers as masters or mistress. The waitresses in maid cafés are chosen based on their appearance; most are young, attractive and innocent-looking women. Hinata got accepted because she was young, Ino and Tenten got accepted because they are attractive, and Sakura got accepted because she was young, attractive, and innocent-looking. That is why she was Yukiji's favorite employee.

Oishi Cafe is one of the most popular Cafe in Konoha. Usually the customers are boys since the waitresses are drop-dead gorgeous. Unfortunately for Sakura, a lot of boys have tried to go out with her or asked for her phone number, even some of them tried to kissed her! Sakura told her problem to Yukiji and she made a rule for the customers.

'No asking for a maid's personal contact information'. Sakura complained again about the other customers that always hitting on her and touched her body, but Yukiji ignored her. She just grinned widely and said, 'If they can't do what you don't want them to do, customers won't be coming, Sakura'.

Back to the girls, they changed their school uniform into the Cafe's uniform; a french maid dress with a pinafore, a frill for the hair accessory, black stockings and black shoes. When they finished changing their uniform, they went to their position and start serving the customer.

Yukiji wasn't kidding that the Cafe was always full on summer vacations! This place is really crowded! But time went fast, a lot of customers come and go. Until afternoon, there are only a few more customers left to serve.

"Irasshaimase. May i get your order?", Sakura smiled sweetly to the customer. He looks like in the age of eighteen, he wore red sweater, blue jeans, red sneakers, sunglasses, and a blue cap. The boy gave her a soft smile, "I would like to have castella and matcha please". Sakura eyed the boy suspiciously, something about his voice remind her of someone, though she can't put a finger on it. His voice sound like... Itachi's.

Sakura snapped from her thought when the customer snapped his finger in front of her face, "hey, are you okay?". Sakura blushed in embarrassment, "Oh! Gomennasai!". She bowed and tried to take a peek on his face, but the sunglasses and the cap are getting in her way.

She straightened herself and walked to the kitchen, ordering the boy's order. Once the order was done, she put it on her tray, placed a smile and walked elegantly to the boy's direction. She placed his orders on the table and bow lightly, "enjoy your meal".

Just when she was about to turn and leave, the boy held her wrist which made Sakura off-guard and fell on the boy's lap. She blushed madly, "g-gomenasai!". She stand and bow, "i'm really really sorry!". He smirked and take off his blue cap and sunglasses. That's when Sakura realised that the boy has a pair of onyx orbs and black locks that he tied into a low ponytail.

Her emerald eyes are wide in shock. "I-Itachi-kun!?"

(AN: i really wanted to end the chapter 'cause it's going to be a real good cliffhanger. But, because it was way too short, i decided to continue it. How damn nice am i?)

"Wh-Why are you here?!", she whisper-shouted him, hoping that noone heard her. He smirked, "Why can't I go to this Cafe? It's a public Cafe, afterall". Sakura rolled her eyes in annoyance, "I mean, what are you doing here?". "I missed you of course and it's not often i get to see you in that outfit. Looking good, princess", he smirked and wink.

Sakura blushed and pout, "Don't you even dare to take a picture of me or I swear I'll-", Sakura's sentence was cut off when she saw a bright flash of light. Itachi was taking a picture of her! Again!

He grinned and showed her the picture he had taken a while ago, "Aww, look! You're so cute with your adorable pout and that french maid dress matched your innocent face really hit the spot!". Sakura blushed even more and shook her head furiously. "Whatever, I have some works to do", she raised her chin and stomped off. Itachi just smiled and begin eating his castella, 'She is so cute I just can't resist her'.

"Konnichiwa sir, how may I help you in this fine afternoon?", Sakura smiled sweetly. The boy smiled back, "I would like a cheesecake with green tea please". The boy was wearing a white shirt, black pants, black shoes, and red cap. Great, more customers with cap. His clothings looked simple but you can tell that it's really expensive. Sakura guessed that this boy must be crazy rich.

Sakura smiled and nodded, "coming right away sir". She went to the kitchen, order the boy's order and when it's ready she put it on her tray and walked to the boy's table. "Here you go sir, one cheesecake and green tea for you", she smiled sweetly while placing his order on his table.

"Thank you very much, umm.."

"Haruno Sakura!", she smiled sheepishly. "Ah, you're from the Haruno family", he smiled and Sakura nodded happily. when she heard his chuckles, she looked up at him. Forest green clashed with a pair of aquamarine eyes. The boy lift his cap to reveal golden locks. Sakura's eyes widen and her mouth is slightly opened. This boy is extremely handsome!

"Yutakana Shonen", he smiled which made Sakura blushed. And suddenly, something struck Sakura's head and she gasped, "You're from the Yutakana family!". The boy smiled and nod his head, "Indeed I am". Yutakana family was like, the third richest family! The first richest family is obviously the Uchiha and the second is the Haruno family. "U-um.. nice to meet you", she said nervously. He chuckled once more, "Haruno-san-"

"Sakura! Sakura will be just fine, Yutakana-san"

"Then, it should be fair if you call me by my first name as well, Sakura-chan"

"Certainly, Shonen-kun"

They laughed together harmoniously which Itachi found really disturbing.

How dare that blonde guy flirt with HIS Sakura! Only him that can made her blushed like that! And why was Sakura laughing? Does she enjoys spending time with that guy more than with him? Itachi don't know why but he felt as if his heart was being stabbed by a drank his matcha, paid the meal and head out the Cafe.

Sakura saw that Itachi was about to leave and excuse herself to Shonen, which he accept dearly and then Sakura rushed to Itachi and grabbed his arm sleeve, "Itachi-kun! Why are you leaving this fast?". Itachi face her and his eyes are no longer warm but being replaced by coldness and darkness. He swatted Sakura' s hands away from his sleeve, "Leave me alone". He turned around and leave the Cafe.

Sakura was really shocked at this, what happened to Itachi? Why is he acting so mean to her? What did she do wrong? There are so many questions in Sakura's head that she wanted Itachi to answer, but unfortunately she still got some works to do. She sighed and went back to work.

"Sakura-chan, I really enjoy meeting you today. Arigatou", Shonen smiled softly. Sakura slightly blushed, "D-doitashimashite, Shonen-kun". "May I borrow your phone?", he asked nicely. Sakura looked at him in confusion but gave Shonen her phone anyway. Shonen typed something on her phone and then gave it back to Sakura. He smiled, "I put my number in there and I already have yours too".

Sakura nodded and blushed even more, "O-okay". He smiled and ruffled her hair, "Okay Sakura-chan, I'm so glad to meet you. I should go now, see you next time". He waved goodbye while leaving the Cafe while Sakura just stood there, waving back and smiling.

"Okay girls! That's the last customer of the day! Good job everyone!", Yukiji clapped her hands cheerfully. Sakura looked at her friends, "Good job girls! Let's changed uniform and get ready to go to Iruka-sensei's place". Her friends nodded exhaustedly and went to their changing room.

After changing their uniform, they said goodbye to Yukiji and step out the Cafe. Sakura walked alone since Ino, Hinata and Tenten's house is near the Cafe and Sakura's not. She walked all alone on the empty street, she was still wondering why Itachi avoid her, he even swatted her hands.

Sakura didn't realise that tears are streaming down her creamy face. She was in front of a park, Sakura walked towards a swing and sat on it. She dialed Sasuke's number and waited for him to answer her call. Sakura tried to stop her sniffing because Sasuke will know that she was crying.

"What is it, Sakura?"

"Sasuke..Kun..", Sakura couldn't help it. She cried.

"H-hey, what's the matter? What's wrong? Does someone hurt you?"

"N-no.. -sniff- i'm alone here.."

"Why are you crying?"

"I couldn't help it.. -sniff- "

"Why? What's wrong? Damn it, tell me Sakura!"

"Nothing. It's nothing, there are dust in my eyes. That's all, sorry for making you worried, Sasuke-kun"

"The hell with that, do you really think I will believe that Sakura? You knew me better than that for god's sake"

"I'm sorry.. Just.. don't go to my house okay?"

"Thanks for the idea". And he hung up.

Sakura sighed, "Oh god, I'm so stupid". She continued walking to her house and she saw a figure in front of her house. The figure looked at her and crossed his arms. Must be Sasuke. "Hi Sasuke-kun, thanks for hanging up on me", she said sarcastically. Sasuke 'Hn'ed her and went inside her house.

The Uchiha mansion and the Haruno Mansion are very near. The Haruno Mansion is right beside the Uchiha Mansion. On the past days, Itachi and Sasuke always played in Sakura's Mansion and vice versa. The Uchiha brothers mother, Mikoto Uchiha, was a bestfriend of Sakura's mother, Mebuki Haruno. Mikoto always baked some apple pies for Itachi, Sasuke, and Sakura. While the Uchiha brother's father, Fugaku Uchiha and Sakura's father, Kizashi Haruno, are bestfriends as well. They always talked a lot about business and all.

"Why are you crying?", Sasuke asked her once again. Sakura tensed a little and laughed nervously, "Nothing, I just practised for my method acting you know".

"But you're acting as a spoiled girl that always brag how she was the most richest girl in the school"

"Yeah, so?"

"Why is there crying?"

"Errr.. because her expensive purse is dirty?", Sasuke threw her a look. Sakura raised her hands defeatedly, "Okay, okay. I was crying, so what?". Sasuke sighed, "Why?". She mumbled something unclear, "Sakura, I can't hear you". "It's because of Itachi-kun".

Sasuke's eyes widen and he clenched his fist, "What did he do to you?". Sakura just shook her head, "I don't want to talk about it. It's really complicated. You should be preparing yourself for the method acting Sasuke-kun. Why don't we go together to Iruka-sensei's house?". Sasuke just sighed, nod his head and left.

Sakura sighed heavily and walked upstairs where her room was located. She changed her school uniform into a different type of school uniform; a white shirt with grey sailor girl collar and red bow, grey mini skirt, black socks that reached below her knees, and black shoes. She tied her hair into a ponytail with a red bow.

She even wear a little make-up to show that she's playing as a spoiled child. She wore peach lipstick, a light shade of blush on and so on.

"A spoiled rich school girl is ready for action!"

DUN!DUN!DUUUN!
