Maybe it's about high school. Maybe it's about your "family issues". Man, I don't know what to believe in anymore. High school is one hell of a troublesome ride. There's drama and girls' stuffs, but I don't blame you for leaving. Too much has happened since your encounter with Itachi. If ever you'd come looking for advice, though, you know where to look. I'd be laying on the ground cloudgazing. Just don't bring any guns with you, for Kami's sake--you don't have to screw your life just because you think your vision of this place is dark and hopeless. Look elsewhere, Sasuke. Look somewhere else brighter.
