“What are you doing… wandering around here at night?”
“Because in order to get out of the village, you have to take this road.”
“Go home and sleep.”
“Why?”
“Why won’t you tell me anything?”
“Why do you always stay silent?”
“Why won’t you say anything to me?”
“Why do I have to tell you anything?”
“I told you, it’s none of your business.”
“Stop concerning yourself about what I do.”
“You’ve… always hated me, huh?”
“Do you remember… the day we became Genin and when the three-member team was first chosen?”
“The day you and I were here alone, you got mad at me, remember?”
~ ~ ~
“Forget about Naruto.”
“All he does is pick quarrels with you.”
“It’s probably because he’s had such an irregular childhood.”
“Oh yeah, you know he doesn’t have any parents, right?”
“He’s always doing selfish things.”
“My parents would scold at me if I do such things.”
“If you’re alone, your parents wouldn’t get mad at you, that’s why he’s so selfish.”
“The solitude… you can’t even compare it to the level of where your parents get mad at you.”
“What’s the matter, all of a sudden?”
“You’re… annoying.”
~ ~ ~
“I don’t remember.”
“That makes sense… that’s something that happened a while back.”
“But, that’s the day when everything started…”
“You and I…”
“And also Naruto and Kakashi-sensei.”
“The four of us completed a number of missions together.”
“They were tough and a lot of work…”
“But…”
“Above all…”
“It was fun!”
“I know about your clan, but revenge… that won’t make anyone happy.”
“No one.”
“Neither you… nor I.”
“Just as I thought…”
“I’m different from you guys.”
“I walk a different path than you guys.”
“I tried to think that it was my path to do the things we’ve done up until now.”
“The four of us did things together, but my heart decided on revenge in the end.”
“That’s my purpose in life.”
“I can’t become like you or Naruto.”
“Are you going to choose to be alone again?!”
“On that day, you taught me that solitude is painful!”
“I understand that so well right now.”
“I have a family, and I have friends, but if you’re gone…”
“To me… it’ll be the same as being alone!”
“From here on, a new path will open for all of us.”
“I…! I love you so much!”
“If you stay with me, I’ll make sure you won’t regret it!”
“Every day will be fun.”
“We’ll definitely be happy.”
“I’ll do anything for you.”
“So… please! Stay here!”
“I’ll help you with your revenge.”
“I’ll do something!”
“So please stay here… with me!”
“If you can’t stay… take me with you.”
“You really are… annoying.”
“Don’t leave!”
“If you do, I’ll scream!”
“Sakura… thank you.”
