{CHAPTER FIVE}
Pissed! That was what Sakura could describe her feelings as right now.
She had been in the room for over an hour according to her watch.
She had paced up and down and even had to bring out her notebook which she had being reading for weeks.
She wondered what was happening back at Konoha.
Was Ino worried?
Have they called?
What about her exams, will her teachers notice she wasn't present?
All this was so annoying.
She sat on the bed back unpacking her things on top the bed and sighed with relief when she saw her grocery items of few canned food, some light chips and a mini personal hygiene kit with her first aid kit.
Thank heavens she had visited Ino who had given her these items before she fell into the water.

...
After eating to her hearts content, Sakura suddenly had the urge to pee badly.
Problem was, she had no idea where the restroom was.
"Damn it! I gotta pee!'' She yelled jumping childlishly.
She walked to the door and opened it. Maybe she could ask someone about it.
This was a palace, there were meant to be maids right?
As she made her way to into the entrance hall, she found two women standing by the foot of the majestic stairs.
One was matured and had long blonde hair which was packed up in two ponytails.
She was dressed in a plain full length gown and Sakura was sure those kind of gowns didn't exist anymore.
Where on earth did this people come from?
The lady also had light brown eyes.
The other beside her looked her hair was brown and it was tied up into two buns.
Her eyes brown and she was dressed exactly like the other woman.
Both curtsied to her when they saw her and Sakura turned around to see if it was for someone else.
Where they bowing to her?
"Hime, we welcome you back home. I am to be called Tsunade and this is Tenten" She gestured to the girl beside her "My lord has assigned us to attend to you, so that you might feel comfortable in your stay here"
Sakura's mouth parted apart in surprise. The king had ordered that?
Feeling uneasy with the way they were bowing to her, Sakura replied "Please don't bow to me...and also just call me Sakura"
Tsunade straightened up "You must be hungry"
"Not really " she replied "I actually just ate. What I need is a rest room"
"Might Tenten escort you there then?''
"Uh..okay"
"Please follow me" Tenten said and lead Sakura down to another chamber.

Sasuke took time to walk down the three lined path of the castle.
Twirling the ruby diamond ring in his hands, he took time to collect his thoughts.
He made his way into the basement.
And into a room he hadn't bothered to open for years.
As he walked in, the light in the room began to lit up as if acknowledging his presence.
He reached a wooden desk and set the ring on top.
His hands traced along the wooden edges as he kept walking.
Now that she was back, he had to find a way of not letting *them* know.
Their return would ruin things as it did in the past.
He reached a metallic door which had the Uchiha crest on it and pressed his hands on top.
The door made a small boom sound and it spilt open into two creating an entrance for Sasuke to walk into.
The room was heated with marble floor.
Petrified veins ran through the stones.
The ceiling was painted in the theme of a zodiac calendar.
On the right side of the room was a book shelf so tall, it could be measured with a sky scraper.
In it were thousands of books.
His mother was always one for reading and so she kept many books.
But after what happened to her, reading began a pain.
Seeing the books were even a bigger pain.
He always wondered why he hadn't gotten rid of them yet.
Maybe because that was what still connected him to his mother.
On the left side of the room was a piano.
He walked towards it and sat on its bench.
The piano was dusty, signifying how long it had been kept down there.
He pressed his hand against the keys and began playing the song he knew by heart.
His eyes closed and the rhythm of the music reached his being.
Past events of the past began to flash through his mind and he grimaced at the one that hurt him most.
The more he remembered the more he played faster.
It would only be a matter of time until she remembered and he would have to wait patiently for that.

.
"Thank you so much, I feel so relieved now" Sakura said smiling at Tenten.
"I am glad you feel that way Hime" Tenten said
"Sakura" Sakura said "Sa-ku-ra...that's my name"
"I'm afraid my king would not let me address you by your first name" Tenten
"Huh? And why not?''
Before Tenten could reply, a sound soon reached the room and Sakura was suddenly taken away by it.
She couldn't put a finger to it, but she could have sworn she had heard this song somewhere before.
"Where is that sound coming from" She asked her face towards the sounds direction.
"That's the hasn't played that for years" Tenten said
"Really? Its beautiful. Why did he stop?"
"I - I can not answer please if you wish I can escort you back to your room"
"No, no. I want to see where this song is coming from, can I?"
Before Tenten could reply, Sakura was already trailing down the hallway.
Tenten sighed and followed after her, the king would so have her head.
Sakura walked through the castle stairways.
Her heart beating every second she listened to the song playing.
Why did she feel like she knew this song?.
She reached the basement and walked into the room, taking cautious steps as she moved.
The music seemed closer.
She stayed beside the door and peered in through.
Seated and playing was no other than the King just as Tenten had said.
She watched as his hands moved sweetly across the keys.
His face was concentrated and his eyes closed.
Now that she thought about it, she never really noticed his facial features.
He was unexpectedly gorgeous. She stared at his eyes down to his perfectly pointed nose and lips ladies would die for.
Great, now she starting to sound like Ino.
Snapping out of her thoughts, she quickly removed her head as she realized he had stopped playing and his eyes opened slightly.
Had he seen her?
"No need hiding" his voice said
So he did.
Sakura peered her head back in, before finally walking in fully.
She stood by the entrance, her hands folded together.
"You..um...played very nicely" She said
His eyes narrowed "You left the room when you weren't supposed to"
"I'm sorry, its just that I had to use the rest room and then i heard you playing and i-" Sakura stopped when she noticed his glare deepened.
Geez they weren't kidding when they said he wasn't that friendly.
After moments of awkward silence, he spoke
"Do you wish to play?" he asked
"Nope, I don't know how to"
She heard him snort a 'Liar'
"Excuse me?" She said crossing her arm
"I called you a liar" Sasuke said back bluntly
"Oh yeah? And why are so sure I can play?" Sakura asked
"Because it was *you* who thought me how" he said.
