“Sasuke-kun! A gacha machine!”
Sakura ran ahead from his neighbor slash best friend Sasuke and headed to the rows of capsule toy vending machine. Lately, it’s been a hobby of hers to collect the little toys and display them in her bedroom. The lad just sighed and followed her inside the toy store.
“You’ll use up all your money again, Sakura,” he warned her. Her addiction to the game is a bit alarming already.
She just grinned. “But they’re so nice! I like seeing my collection getting bigger, Sasuke-kun. Besides, I’m only picking the 100 yen ones.”
At the familiar sound of the gacha landing on the receptacle, Sakura clasped her hands, excited what the machine has given to her. Sasuke looked on, sitting beside her.
“Ooh, a slug!” the pinkette exclaimed as she opened the capsule. “Uwaaah, look Sasuke-kun! It’s cute!”
“Great. Can we go now?”
She pouted. “Already?”
“I’m helping you save some money, Sakura.”
“Why don’t you try one, Sasuke-kun?”
He just gave her a bored look, and he shook his arm affectionately. “Come on, try it!”
“Fine, if it makes you happy.” With a sigh, Sasuke took a 100 yen from his pocket and entered it in the machine. He took the capsule as Sakura watched with a big smile on her face.
“A snake,” he deadpanned.
“Uwaaah! But it’s a cute one!” Sakura proclaimed in defense of the toy.
He handed it to her. “Keep it then. It’s yours.”
“But Sasuke-kun!” she protested. “You used your own money, so therefore it’s yours.”
“I have no use for it.”
The pinkette gave him a glare. “Fine. But I’m just keeping it for you, okay? It’s still yours.”
“Tch. How annoying.”
Sakura gave him a quick hug before turning her attention again to the gacha machines. Onyx eyes continued to watch her with a certain gentleness in them. A while later, Itachi called the two six year olds to eat for lunch.
Eighteen years later, the slug and the snake toys were one of the cake toppers in one of their engagement cakes.
Gacha Love
