Stupid plan

Before

Naruto

- Are you sure this will work for Sakura-chan? - The blonde asked a little apprehensive. She had looked for the pink one and confessed that she was in love with Sasuke, the friend was very sincere and said that the Uchiha was closed to love, so she knew something very bad had happened from Sasuke's past and he had no intention of get involved with someone again. In view of this, Naruto and Sakura devised a plan in which they would pretend to be "interested" in each other and perhaps they could get the brunette out of the glass dome he had placed himself in.

- Of course, all you have to do is pretend that you are in love with me and that you need help to win me over - In the rosy head everything would happen in a very simple way, the Uchiha would be jealous and declare themselves for the blonde, and in the end the two would be happy forever, Sakura didn't deny it was a card-carrying fujoshi, so I had to join OTP at all costs - Take this phone and call him right away, I didn't wake up at dawn and I came here to waste my precious time ...

- And what do I say? - The blonde interrupted his friend because she was talking too much, which only served to increase her nervousness.

- What do you mean? Let's follow the plan - The rosy girl said a little mad at the slowness of Uzumaki, but even so she couldn't hide her excitement, she felt like a real cupid, although all the couples she helped didn't leave the first date, however, I was sure that everything was going to be all right now.

Now

- Then? - Sakura asked curiously, she was holding up the entire call so as not to take her friend's cell phone and ruin everything.

- I don't know ... He didn't look very well, after I asked him if he would help me, his voice failed a little and he was a little reluctant, but there is no turning back, the only thing to do is take this plan stupid until the end - The blonde sighed with a sad smile, he could not understand how he was able to do something like this, if his beloved mother was still alive, he would certainly be disappointed, he was not the type of person who played with the feelings of others , if Sasuke really wasn't willing to have anything to do with him, since he never showed it, it wouldn't be cool to practically force him to respond to his feelings. He felt like the most selfish person in the world.

- How so stupid plan, now your ... - And so Sakura grabbed a pillow and ran after the blonde around the apartment, at least the stupid plan had given him a great friend would take for a lifetime, I had no doubts. Better not to have sad thoughts now, at the moment the only thing I could do was to run as hard as my legs would allow and run away from a raging pink, whoever saw the scene from the outside would die of someone else's shame, but for both of them I was being the most fun thing in the world.

@@@

On the other side of the city, there was a very sad Uchiha clutching his pillow and thinking about how much of a coward he was, he couldn't help it, and before that he would at least fight for the happiness of his beloved, even if he had to see that everyone nearby The blonde's radiant smiles would not be for him, he would be content only to observe in the distance amid the shadows of his existence as he always did, he was accommodated and in all his life he fought for few things, but he did not regret any of them. In fact, what kind of meeting would Sakura like? I bet on something very excited, I had to think about something very quickly and tell the blond nerd that he would probably take her to eat ramen, I had no doubt that would be the blond's first idea, after that thought he started to laugh softly.

So, he gathered all his nonexistent courage and went to get ready to go for a walk, it was a beautiful day and he needed to find something to do urgently, he would not spend every day confined at home, maybe it would be a good idea to visit his mother's grave, even that he never met her still had a warm feeling in his heart, during his childhood he liked to visit her, always alone, but for him it didn't matter and he especially liked to tell everything he thought and felt to his mother, no she could hear his advice and not even get a hug when she was sad, however, there was nothing better than to expose her feelings in front of a headstone and cry. So he didn't feel alone and helpless.

Some time later the Uchiha was already in the cemetery in front of Mikoto Uchiha's grave.

- Good morning mom, there's a lot of time, right? Sorry, I was a little busy these days - The brunette knelt before the headstone with a small smile on his face - I need to tell you everything that happened ...

(...)

- So that was it, I really am very weak, right? - Sasuke asked with a sad smile, already knowing the answer that would not come.

- Excuse me, young man, how are you? - The Uchiha only then realized that some tears were streaming down his face, quickly dried them and looked up to find an elderly woman with a welcoming smile, which made the lines that time had given him even more - Was he someone important? - The lady bent down at the height of the Uchiha and looked at the headstone.

With a nod, the brunette nodded and the old woman gave him an understanding look.

- You know, I had a daughter, she suffered from a serious illness and without cure and because of that she was never able to fulfill her dreams, you have a look similar to hers, a look of someone who has a lot to do, but, who has fear. Do not be like my daughter, do not let anything stop you from doing what you believe to become reality, time passes too quickly, young man, do not allow yourself to see it passing and do nothing - The lady said with a hand on her shoulder, then getting up and leaving.

The Uchiha looked at his mother's headstone and with a confident look he stood up and said a small thanks to the woman who was already far away, determined not to let time pass while at least he still had a chance.
