CHAPTER 4

- At the orphanage -


I walked to art class but I stopped for what I saw.

It was the girl who I helped this morning sitting her back towards me. I recognized her because of her big hoodie. My gaze looked at her. My eyes were locked to her back. She turned around like she had known someone was watching her. She looked at me and lifted her gaze to my eyes. Her body was facing the front of the room but her head was turned to me.

We looked at each other's eyes. I felt some weir sensation in my chest. Her eyes were captivating and I couldn't turn my eyes away from her.

'Emerald' I thought to myself and I took a deep breathe.

As I looked at her I noticed how tired she looked. My chest started to hurt.

'If I would be a gentleman I would go to her and ask is she okay but I'm not. So I'll just walk-' My thought were cut off by Neji "You okay man?".

I turned my gaze to Neji who was standing on my right side. He stared at me and I glared him back. Neji backed away from me like I was some wild animal hunting.

"Hn" I grunted and looked back to the hoodie-girl.

She wasn't looking at me anymore and I started to feel annoyed and restless. Restless. I have never been restless.

'I didn't even realize we had the same art class' I thought.

I went and sat on my seat keeping my gaze on her back.

She was sitting before me except there was one table between mine and her table. She was writing something or drawing. I tilted my head to side and looked at her more intensively placing my hands on the table and leaned against them.

I was in my thoughts.

"Hey earth to Sasuke" Someone waved their hand before me.

I blinked few times and looked at Neji sitting my left. I leaned my back to the chair.

"Are you really alright? You seem to space out which is not normal for you." He said and looked suspicious.

He placed his left hand on the table and leaned to it turning to face me.

"I didn't sleep well." I switched my position and pocketed my hands.

Neji raised his eyebrows "Ten-Ten said you helped that girl this morning." He pointed the hoodie-girl.

He guessed it.

"And I thought you sit next to Ten-Ten" I said not looking at him.

He noticed the tone don't-want-to-talk-about-it from my voice.

"Hmph." I could imagine the smile in his tone when he sat up and headed towards his girlfriend.

"Annoying"


SAKURA'S P.O.V

'I can't believe I just looked at him straight in his eyes and he looked back at me.' I screamed in my thoughts.

My heart was pounding. It felt so weird.

'This is so embarrassing!'

I felt somebody looking at me again just like I felt Uchiha Sasuke's gaze on my back few minutes before. I got this uncomfortable feeling and I wanted to look behind me to see who it was and so I did. But now it couldn't be him again. This feeling is more intensive and warm and I got butterflies in my stomach.

'But could it be him?' I tilted my head to left which probably looked weird because I wasn't talking to anybody.

"No!" I stood from my chair and fast.

I looked around me and everybody was looking at me. I felt a slight blush come to my cheeks.

"Umm…" I mumbled.

"Sakura is everything okay?" Old-lady Chiyo asked from the front of the class.

"Y-yeah. I just remembered this thing and…." I sat down so embarrassed that I laid my head on my table.

'This is so embarrassing…' I suffered from inside.

I don't know how long my head was on that table but I lifted it and took my pencil back on my hand continuing my drawing.

I heard few people muttering something and noticed that they mentioned my name few times.

Now I wanted to sink somewhere deep where no one could find me and I could just rot there alone.


AFTER SCHOOL; ORPHANAGE

"I'm so happy to see you Sakura." Mica almost exploded from joy and captured me in a real bear hug. Which to be honest felt like being crushed.

"Mica. Can't breathe." I gasped as her hold around me didn't ease.

"Sorry. I'm just so happy to see you." She said big smile on her face an backed away to give me some breathing space.

"We just saw the day before yesterday." I explained.

"Yeah, but the kids have been missing you. Whole yesterday they just asked 'When is Sakura-san's coming?' or 'Why Sakura-san isn't here?'. It was getting frustrated." She imitated the kids and sighed in annyance.

I couldn't help but laugh.

"By the way, I saw you walking here but you limbed. What happened?"

"I got tackled by one girl at school. " I explained.

"Did you sprain your leg?"

"No, my knee got hurt so that's why I'm limb."

She nodded.

Then Mica's face turned serious.

"Can you go watch the kids, I have an appointment." Mica asked me.

"Of course" I left the hall and walked to the room where kids were watching a movie.

The movie was Little Mermaid. Cute, 30 kids sitting on the floor watching crab singing. Not that I have something against the movie it was my favorite movie when I was younger but I haven't watch it in many years.

I couldn't help but smile.

Then one of the kids turned to me.

"Look Sakura-san!" He pointed at me.

Everybody got up and run to me. They tackled me on the ground and we all laughed.

"Who's the prince?"

I sat up from under the kids.

"Huh? Prince?" I looked at the little girl who was looking at the hallway.

Her eyes were sparkling from joy and her face was red from blush. Like when little child is in candy store and can pick anything he or she wants.

I turned my head where she was looking at.

"S-Sasuke Uchiha…" I mumbled under my breath.
