"What. The. Fuck."
"It's good to see you too, (y/n)."



















                            

                                
                            
                              
                                  
                              
                              
                                
                                  
                                  
                                
                              
                             
                            
                            
                          
                          

"I-Itachi san?"
"What is going on? Where am I? What is this place? W-"
Itachi let out a light chuckle "Calm down, I'll explain everything."
"H-Hold on. Am I in paradise?" 
"This place is a resting spot for the travelers heading to paradise." 
"What are you doing here?"
" I'm here to meet you."
"Why you? Ain't a parent or someone close visits you in this kind of situation?" 
"Yes, that's true. I just want to ask a question, (y/n)."
"Sure.."
"Why did you jeopardize your life to save sasuke.?"
"Because I love him."
"I see. Why do you love him?"
"What do you mean?"
"Why do you love him, (y/n)."
"Have you ever met someone - the kind of someone that just feels like 'the one? When you're walking, and your hand brush, you have goosebumps in your entire body. It's the feeling I feel for sasuke. Someone that feels like a sunny day after it has rained for a week. You hold their hand, fully aware that this love will consume you all at once and you let It. I love him for numerous reasons and I don't know how to express them in words. Sasuke became the center of my life, my dreams, my hope, and my ambition. Sasuke might not be the first guy I loved but I loved him the most."
Itachi closes his eyes for a moment then looks at me with a gentle smile. "Thank you." 
"For what?"
"Thank you for being there for him, for loving my brother with all your heart and soul."
"You hold a greater love for him than I can ever keep up with Itachi San.."


"(Y/n)... Please come back."

"Is that-"
"Yes... It's sasuke.."
"How can I hear him?" I ask, rubbing my temple.
"Tsuyoi Kizuna"



"(y/n)... Tsuyoi Kizuna is a Japanese word that translates to 'strong bond', and perhaps at some point, we all have felt that with someone. once in a while, you just click with people. and you don't know why, you don't realize what it is, but something about that person makes you smile. Tsuyoi Kizuna is about finding a connection in life." 
"and why are you telling me this?" I look at him with a puzzled expression.
"because you and I share Tsuyoi Kizuna..." Sasuke smiled standing up.
