Jewelry, makeup, expensive clothes, lots of friends.
That's all a girl like Sakura, at the age of 17, could ask for.
But what if you have too much of the jewelry and the clothes and too little of your true friends?
Sakura is one of the richest youth in all of Konoha.
Her parents run one of the largest and most famous companies in the country.
But, as is well known, wealth does not make you happy and you cannot buy real friends.

Sometimes she wishes that she was born into a perfectly normal family.
But don't you always want what you don't have?

Sometimes she wishes her parents would just go bankrupt.
But don't you always have what you don't want?

Sometimes she just wants to run away.
But can you really escape your life?

Sakura was sitting on her wide four-poster bed in her room.
Slowly she pulled her black high heels off her feet, she couldn't suppress a sound of pain.Briefly she looked at the pair of shoes in her hand but then she just threw them into a corner of her room.
// Damn it, I hate those important events where you always have to wear long dresses and high heels! //, thought the pink-haired girl and fell back on her bed.
She looked at the ceiling and blew a short, pink strand from her face.
She hadn't changed, but was still wearing the long light green dress that went so well with her emerald green eyes. It was actually not that late, but she was already very tired because she had to dance the whole evening with some sons of rich parents whom she did not even know.
And when no one was available, she had to talk to some older women she didn't know about the latest gossip.
It was really not made for that because after less than two hours it was gone again with the explanation that she had a terrible headache.Slowly her eyelids grew heavier and closed all the way.
Sakura turned to one side and fell asleep immediately.
Sakura hated her life. Why couldn't she just be like everyone else?
Normal...
