They were wrong.
It all ended with her death. Sakura was gone.
Not physically, but mentally. A new Sakura was created.
In front of him stood a woman who had been hurt too many times. And because of that, she was leaving the village.
"Do you have to go?"
"Sasuke-kun, I already told you."
"Maybe it's better to stay after all, Sakura. I..."
"If you care about me, you will follow me."
"This is where my home is."
"Home is where the person you love is. Remember that." looking at Sasuke draggingly - perhaps with hope, or sadness in her eyes, Sakura sent a gentle smile. It was a farewell "Take care."
Sakura walked out of the village gate, not once looking back. Sasuke didn't move from his seat, trying to decide what he wanted.
