Okay this is the Epilogue to Remember me, just like i told you in the last chapter. I am glad to have you guys as a reader.

But i like all the good things in life, this story has to come to in end. I am still continuing Konaha's Lullaby and Revenge of the Heart. Which is my new story and its under Claymore, and the Character is Teresa.

If you havent read Claymore i suggest you should, especially if you are a female.

Remember, that the epilogue might not be great but it is not my fault, i am exhausted. But i do hope you like this.


-Epilogue in Sasuke's Point of View-


It has been almost five years since Sakura Haruno died. Almost five agonizing years I have spent with my wife, Karin. I guess the saying: 'you never know what you had until it is gone' is true. I didn't know what I had, until I lost it.

I didn't know that I loved Sakura Haruno. Almost five years ago, I thought I only liked her because I couldn't have her. If you were guy who came back to his hometown and the girl that use to fawn over you stopped liking you and thought you were a total jackass; it would appeal to you. Plus, she was hotter than when she was twelve. Basically I thought I was infatuated with her. I didn't think I was in love with her, well…until a week after she died and I couldn't get her out of my head.

Even know, sitting with my son on my lap and my daughter over at her Aunt Elena's house, I still can't get her out of my head. I still wonder what it would have been like it to have Sakura, alive, and be the one with me and not Karin. I sometimes wonder if I made a mistake choosing Karin.

I think the sadist thing of her death, overall, was that I never told her that I didn't think she was annoying and that I did love her.

I sighed as I turned my head towards the clock. Elena should be bringing Ayamari back soon.

Elena and I have joint custody over Ayamari. Tsunade gave me custody of Ayamari because I am her father, but in Sakura's will Elena was granted custody of Ayamari. And we know that a will is a final wish that everyone gets to have granted. So we share Ayamari.

I get her on my days of from Missions and Elena gets her on Missions and some Holidays; the holidays Elena mainly gets her on are Easter, Mother's Day, Sakura's Birthday, the Cherry Blossom Festival, Her (Elena's) Birthday, and Elena and I switch off every Christmas and Ayamari's birthday. So basically both of us get to spend her birthday and Christmas with her every other year.

Ayamari seems happy to leave here and go with Elena when Karin is around. One thing I know is that if Ayamari didn't inherit much of her looks from her mother, she sure as hell inherited her personality, likes and dislikes of things.

Ayamari can not stand Karin, and sometimes I don't blame her. Karin treats her like shit.

When Karin would ramble on and on about how horrible Ayamari acts in public or around the house, and how my daughter treats her, Ayamari would make one remark and leave the table.

After a fight Karin started with Ayamari, Ayamari wouldn't come out of her room using the door; she got out by using the window. She didn't eat anything Karin cooked; I don't know if she even ate at all. The only thing I knew, was that she was avoiding Karin not matter what the cost.

I don't blame Ayamari at all. I know she is living with a wicked step mother, and I feel guilty for that, but I can't do anything about it. I have another kid that I have and I don't want to make the same mistake that I did with her. Although, I do tell Karin to stop even kick her out of the house for a night or two, or six; but that is depending on how irritated she got me.

Daisuke, my son, grabbed my hair and yanked it; snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Daisuke," I sighed. "Don't do that." The only reply I got was a giggle.

I then heard a knock at the door.

"I'll get it, Sasuke-kun." My wife, Karin, called from the kitchen.

I sighed and got up. I put my son on the floor and let him play with some of his toys. It took me a while but I got him to play with his toys, finally. I knew who it was, and I knew what was going to happen next. So I walked towards the door.

Karin beat me to the door, probably because the kitchen was right next to the front door and I had to put my son down, and convince him to play with his toys.

Karin opened the door.

"Move bitch." I heard a female voice that sounded annoyed, which meant one thing; it was Elena.

"Make me." I heard Karin snap.

"Fine," Elena said as she shoved Karin out of the way, causing her to fall flat on her ass, and walked into the house with Ayamari right behind her.

"Remember, Ayamari, you can come to my house anytime you feel like it. You don't even have to call. You know how to get in." Elena told my daughter.

I sighed, Elena always told her this. I admit if I was Elena I would have done the same thing…but give me some credit. I'm not that heartless. I make sure that either Karin or Ayamari, mainly Ayamari because I can't stand being alone with Karin, is always with me when the other is present in the house.

I take Ayamari out everyday so that she isn't locked up in the house.

I help her practice some jutsus that she can't master I allow her to come up with more tricks that she can use with her sharigan and use the tricks on me. I might be a bastard in public but I won't ever let the one thing I have left of the girl I love get hurt in anyway.

"I know Elena-Oba. Don't worry. Dad isn't that bad." Ayamari smiled, as she flipped her head to get her bangs out of her eyes.

I'm glad she got use to calling me dad. It was always 'Sasuke-san' or 'Sasuke-teme'; the last one was when she was with Naruto for month when the custody was being worked out. She even started to call Elena, Elena-Oba, instead of Elena-Sama, which I think is what Sakura was trying to get her to do anyway.

"Alright, Caro," Elena said as she kissed Ayamari's cheek. "Good bye. I love you."

"Love you too Elena-Oba." Ayamari kissed Elena's cheek and said her goodbyes.

As Elena walked out the door, Karin slammed it shut.

"You have to clean your room or you are not going anywhere!" Karin demanded as she turned towards Ayamari.

"I'll do that when you stop being a bitch." Ayamari said as she headed down the hall.

I shook my head, which was hanging, and smirked. Then I followed her.

"Sorry baby girl." I said to her as I took her bags.

"You should be. But I guess I should feel sorry for you." She mused.

I looked at her in confusion. "And why is that?"

"You have to sleep in the same bed with her." She said; a big smile on her face. I knew she was trying to hold back from laughing.

"True, but at least I have you with me to help me." I replied we got to her bedroom door. She opened it and I laid her bags down.

"Yeah I guess you're right." She mused as she sat on her bed.

I sat next to her and pulled her up onto my lap.

"Dad, I'm too old for this!" she whined.

"You're never too old to sit in your Father's lap."

"Am I to old to cry?" she asked, her voice beginning to crack.

I was shocked. She seemed happy earlier. What could have caused her to start to cry so suddenly?

"No," I replied. "But why would you want to cry?" I asked.

"Today is her anniversary." Ayamari's voice broke completely. She was crying.

'It was her anniversary. It was her anniversary.' I thought, trying to decode what my daughter was saying. Then it hit me. 'It was her Anniversary. Exactly five years ago, today, she died. Today is the anniversary of Sakura's death.'

I wrapped my arms around my daughter's shaking body.

"Shh," I said as I tried to sooth my daughter. "Everything is alright; your mother wouldn't want to see you cry. You know she doesn't like it when you cry."

"I…know…but…I…miss…her…so…much." she sobbed.

I wrapped my arms her shaking body even tighter.

"I know you miss her. I miss her too baby girl. But you have to remember two things."

"What are they?" she asked her eyes holding covered with tears.

"Your mother loves you, and she is watching over you right now. So don't ever think that she is gone."

"Alright, I'll try not to." She continued to sob into my chest.

I sat there and held my crying daughter for the rest of the night until she and even I fell asleep.
