Sakura's eyes widened a little, and she rushed back in front of the counter, her face have lit up with a flicker of hope. She wanted to look Ishi straight in the face when she asked.
She brought her hands together in front of her as her heartbeat accelerated a little. She almost didn't even realize she was hurting the flower she had just bought by holding on to it to tightly.
"You've seen him recently?" she asked.
If she had, this was urgent. Sakura and Naruto had been looking for him all this time... They really wanted him to come back to Konoha.

"Yes, actually, I saw him in..." Ishi looked around. "Can you keep a secret? Don't tell NArto; I will." Ishi lowered her voice to a whisper. "I saw him in the streets of Iwa, the rock village. I found him and tried t tel lhim he needed someone to help him, maybe not me, but someone. We had a lengthy discussion ((To read it, go to the streets of Iwa and look at "Memories...")) and he mentioned me being like you..."

"I..."
Sakura pulled back slightly, biting her lip and hoping that the small bit of pain was going to help her be brave. She didn't want tears to start brimming her eyes.
She reminded herself that she was tougher now, stronger. Sasuke was a dear friend, but they were going to find him and bring him back. Just like Naruto said.
"On the night he left, we had a similar dialogue..." she finally said.
Sort of. It had mostly been her who spoke and Sasuke remained insensitive. Then, he had knocked her out cold and left. After saying... after... thanking her...

"Here," Ishi gave Sakura some orchids, "Thank you for telling me these things, and sorry if I hurt you..." ((Hey, what if Naruto, You and me became a team? That would be awsome!))

"It's all right," Sakura said, just now realizing she had squeezed the first flower too tight.
She released it a little and took a look at it. It wasn't that bad... with a bit of care... it was going to be okay. Just like her.
"Thank you, but I'll keep this one," she politely turned down the other flowers.
The Yamanakas would probably be mad at Ishi if she just gave her the flowers, anyway.
"I... really have to go," Sakura said. "See you around..."
She tried to smile slightly and to wave, but this time she quickly turned around and left. She needed to be alone for a while...
