Rain and wind chimes

The rain pattered against the window panes and you could hear the wind chimes, which Sakura had so lovingly hung up.

"Honey? Are you ready?" Sakura's mother came into the room, not getting an answer. Mrs. Haruno found a Sakura sitting at the desk.
"Oh Sakura, do you want to sulk all the time? It's been like this for 4 years"
"I'm not sulking!" Sakura yelled at her.

Her mother backed away, startled. "I'm ... sorry, I didn't mean to bother you." she said depressed and left the room. Sakura was immediately sorry again, what could her mother do if she was lovesick?

A loud clang shocked her from her thoughts. She whirled around and saw that the greyhound had fallen on the balcony. Sakura sighed and got up.
She opened the sliding door to the balcony and stepped out into the rain. The gray, gloomy sky resembled their mood. She was just about to pick up the little silver tubes when she slipped and fell in a high arc over the railing.But Sakura didn't feel a hard impact on the wet road, but how it was caught.
"Well .. Naruto," she said, looking up at the rather stunned Naruto.
"Hey Sakura next time you should be more careful" grinned Naruto, then he let Sakura down and picked up the umbrella that he had dropped during the collection operation.
"There ... Thanks Naruto" She cleared her throat and turned to go back inside. But Naruto held her wrist. This time he cleared his throat. "You ... don't you want to go out for ramen with me and my new friend?" he asked hesitantly.
Sakura looked up in surprise. "Your new girlfriend?"
Naruto looked at her with a grin and said "Well Hinata and I are now a couple" whereby he blushed slightly.
Sakura happily hugged Naruto and was able to forget her own worries for a short time. "I'm very happy for you!" she said and added nekkishly "Then you won't follow me any more and I can ..." A pain ran through her.She saw Sasuke in her mind. His black hair. And those unfathomable black eyes. She winced imperceptibly.
"And? Are you coming with me?" Naruto asked her who didn't notice that she was absent. This question ripped her out of her mind. "I'm sorry, Naruto, but .. I'm not hungry." she said in a low, choked voice and ran away. Out into the twilight.
Naruto looked after her sadly. You still haven't forgotten it, have you, Sakura-chan? "
