"5.....4......3....2....1, Happy New Year!!" People surrounding me cheered but I was disappointed. "Papa had broken our promise again." I sighed and felt tears rolling down my cheeks.
Last night, we promised over the phone that we will meet at the hokage monument at 9.30pm. "Papa, is your work that important? Is it so important that you can't even send a text message?" I sighed, everyone started to wish each other 'happy new year' . I followed, forcing out a smile.
I quickly finish up my burger. Everyone started to disperse, leaving me foolishly standing there as though a miracle will appear if I keep on standing.
"Mum in heaven, does papa love me? Why does he keep on breaking our promises?" I complained, unable to understand our situation. A few years back, mama died from cancer and ever since then, papa locked himself up with work. It was only last year where he made the effort to improve our relationship.
At the corner of my eye, I saw a girl happily skipping with her parents. I glared at the family, envy at their happiness. "Time to head back." I sighed after the family was out of sight, trudging back with disappointment.

[At the airport ]
Sasuke hurriedly got out of the airport and flag down a taxi, telling the driver to drive at his maximum speed to the monument. He kept staring at his watch, praying that Sarada is still there, waiting for him. He cursed at the plane for delaying and his phone for dying at the moment when he needed it the most.
At the monument, he quickly got off and started to look for Sarada. Despite knowing that she could have already left, he still kept that small flame of hope. However, that flame was burned out when he saw nobody was there, only him. His head hung low as he cursed at himself, "I'm super sorry, Sarada."
