"No one. This is just between you and me." Naru stops her back rubbing and just holds her tight. "I promise."

"No problem. You just tell me when you're done, okay? I'll be here for as long as you need me." Naru strokes Sakura's hair a little to keep her head at her shoulder.

*For several minutes, Sakura leans against Naru, letting the tears flow. Eventually, they come to an end.* I... I believe I am done.
*Meanwhile, downstairs, Sam reenters the living room and tosses Hannah's phone back to her.* Okay, my parents were pretty freaked. I'll have had back home in a couple minutes.
As Sakura cried, Naru said nothing, only held her and kept rubbing her back. When she said she was done, Naru pulled them apart just enough to look Sakura in the eye. "Feel better?"

Naru nods and hugs her again before letting her go. "Good to hear. So, how do you plan to get him back?"

"Well, yeah. Isn't that why you're hurting right now? Because he left?" Naru holds her hand on Sakura's shoulder. "It might not be too late to get him back."

"That's because he's hurting. Sakura, he likes you. You've said yourself you think he's a good guy. I don't think it would hurt you this much if you didn't like him back." Naru rubs her shoulder.

"In some way?" Naru shakes her head and squeezes Sakura's shoulder. "Honey, you don't cry your eyes out over a guy if you like him 'in some way.' What's keeping you from admitting you like him?"

"Well, maybe you need to think things over for a bit? Relax and figure out what you feel for him. From what I gather, he should be willing to give things another shot if you show him you like him back."
