Chapter 16- Talking to the Moon

"Y-you're lying." I manage to say.

"Oh yeah? Why don't you ask your siblings? I bet they also know. I guess your Jessie got tired of you, monster that's why she left you all alone. Couldn't blame her, I also can't bare to hang-out with a monster freak like you." Oscar smirk and his play mates laughed at me.

I held my anger and ran away back from home. I tried to take what Oscar told me away from my mind and think of something positive. Maybe it's just the letter. Yeah, maybe just the letter. She might not feel the same way as I feel to her but that doesn't mean that she has to leave me and call me a freak or a monster... right?  She would never ever think of that. She was the only one who understands me and tried to be friend with me so why would she do that?

Yeah, maybe she's just avoiding me and hiding away from me... but why? That letter contains everything I feel about her. Jessie... please tell me you didn't leave me.

I tried to keep my tears in me then finally I was home. I found Temari and Kankuro fighting about who is the most powerful of them all.

"I am the most powerful because I can blow you away in no time!" Temari exclaimed.

"Oh yeah? I could use my puppet to sneak behind you and defeat you!" Kankuro yelled then they both realized that I was watching them so they stopped fighting.

"Oh, Gaara... you're home already. How long had you been there?" Temari ask and I ignored her question.

"Do you know where Jessie went?" I ask.

This can prove that Oscar was wrong. Jessie would never leave me behind. I'm her best friend. She promised me she will never leave me behind and that she would always be by my side. So why would she leave me behind?

"Well... Gaara... you see..." Kankuro trailed off and I felt pain in my heart.

"TELL ME!" I demanded and I could feel myself crying.

Could it be true? Did she really left me because I'm a freak or a monster? Jessie... would you do that to me?

"She left a week ago but no one knows where she went. Her parents came back from their mission then they just left." Temari finishes and I couldn't contain it anymore... I cried.

"S-s-she t-think t-that I-I'm a m-monster." I muttered as I cry.

I clutch my hand to my heart for the pain was unbearable. 

"I don't think she would say that Gaara. She's your best friend. She wouldn't dare to call you a monster. She was the one who keeps encouraging you not to call yourself a monster or a freak right?" Temari explained but I don't know who to believe.

Either her or... Oscar. I immediately went to the roof and cried there all night. The next day, I went to our neighbors, asking if they saw Jessie. They would just call me freak or tell me to go away. 

As day had pass, I kept asking the same neighbors until it comes to the part where they said 'SHE'S NEVER GOING BACK BECAUSE YOU'RE A FREAK!' And with that, the Shukaku become thirsty at blood which made me killed those neighbors who would call me a freak, monster or even say that Jessie is never going back... I know one day she will.

Three years later I had been doing that. I got the kanji tattooed on my left forehead which means 'Love' for I want to find out what love really means. Only Jessie was the one who made me feel love. Some of the neighbors won't open the door for me and some of them will, but won't give negatives comment. 

I miss Jessie so much and I went up the roof, starring to the moon. Jessie... I know you're somewhere out there, somewhere far away... I want you back... I want you back... my neighbors say I'm crazy, but they don't understand. Your all I have... Jessie your all I have. At night when the stars light up my room. I sit by myself.

Talking to the moon. Tryin' to get to you. In hopes you're on the other side, talking to me too or am I a fool? Who sits alone... talking to the moon. I'm feeling like I'm famous, the talk of the town. They say I've gone mad. Yeah, I've gone mad. But they don't know what I know, because Jessie you're my light. You give light into my darkness. Jessie... I miss you so much.

End of Flashback

Few more years had pass and my siblings also feared me. Couldn't blame them. All I want was Jessie and now that I found her, she doesn't even remember me.

'Well one thing for sure, I'm going to enjoy drinking her blood.'

'I won't let you!'

'She was the one who made you suffered like this! I WILL KILL HER!'

'I won't let you! There might be an explanation of why she left right?'

No response anymore. I sighed and kept starring at the moon until I felt a different chakra behind me so I made my sand wrapped around the person then I looked back. With my surprise, I immediately drop my sand and let it return to my gourd and stared at the person.

"I-it's you. What are you doing here in the middle of the night?" I ask and sighed.

"I thought you're going to kill me back there before." She replied avoiding my question.
