    Summary

    She ignored the small voice in her head that kept telling her she wasn't doing it for her family, but for selfish reasons.
    Because she didn't want to give up her first friend. Because she could even, maybe! Be send on missions with her.
    The fantasy of what would happen if maybe she didn't retire and stayed on a genin team. Was sent with Ino and came home with her, stayed unspoken and tucked safely into a small part of her brain she didn't like to think about.

    ~

    4 year old Sakura makes a decision - when Ino, her best friend, will join the Academy, so will she.
    And she will be strong enough to be send out with her on missions.
    That means dedication, and learning- things that came easy to her anyways.
