Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ X---flavours of childhood ❯ X. HS ( Chapter 3 )

[ A - All Readers ]

 
 
*A graceful, mature medic-nin stands with head bowed in front of the memorial stone. She contemplates the abilities of her profession and its many limitations. In her hands, she twirls a ratty strip of red cloth and a fresh lily blossom. ~How can one's relationship and feelings towards another change so much in the short time one has lived?~ Her thoughts fade into the blue sky as she bends to lay the flower on the ground, then turns and walks away without looking back,*

“I hate this! They hate me. It's because I'm ugly, isn't it?”
“They just don't see you clearly enough. It's alright. This will help.
You're not ugly. You just haven't bloomed yet.”
Thank you. It helps.

“You knew! I told you! Why do you still want to fight with me?
I can't accept that you didn't tell me yourself and I had to find out this way!
I can't look at you the same way again.” Why did you lie to me?
 
“Fine!”
I didn't want you to know.
Because you told me.
I can't help myself.
I can't keep helping you and hurting myself.
I'm sorry it had to be this way. But this is the only way.
I won't give up for you anymore.
Why are you so selfish that you can't see that? Was it my fault too?

“Will you go out with me?”
“No.”
 
“Please— ”
“No.”
 
“Don't go—”
“I'm sorry.” No.
Stop holding me back. You… and him.
Because I want it too much and I'm afraid that you'll succeed… because it'd mean that I've failed. Again.

I'm still not good enough. I never was.
I know she lied to me about this too. Why? It hurts.
I miss her…
