The beautiful Brazilian beach glimmered picturesquely as the waves lapped at the shoreline. Sakura, Nyoko, and Rahatani sat on folding chairs, soaking in the sun's rays as Lee played soccer farther down the coastline with a group of boys.

As boys passed the three beauties, they admired their respective swimsuits: Raha was wearing a yellow bikini and a pair of sunglasses while reading a book; Nyoko was wearing a pale blue, one piece bathing suit and was swimming with a group of girls; and Sakura was wearing a dark violet bikini while watching the soccer match- more accurately, Lee. He was playing in a pair of black and white swim trunks without a shirt.

Lee made a final goal and was soon surrounded by teammates and spectators. Sakura sighed and heard a male voice say, “He’s kind of a show off. Don’t you think?”

Sakura looked behind her and smiled upon seeing a familiar face. “Hey there, Rune,” Sakura said with a small smile. Rune returned her smile with his own. Sakura turned back to look at Lee and laughed when she saw Nyoko tackle-hug him to the ground.

“Sakura, I’m going to go get some ice cream. Care to come with me?” Rune asked as he held out his hand.

Sakura turned to Lee, who was now joined by Raha, and thought to herself. I guess since Lee has Rahatani, that means that I can flirt and date whoever I want. Sakura looked at Rune with a smile, nodded, and took his hand.

Nyoko got off of Lee’s back, the two laughing their lungs out. Rahatani came over and sighed as the crowd dispersed. “How I’m related to either of you, I’ll never know,” she said as she watched her two laughing siblings.

Lee laughed a few seconds longer, but stopped when he spotted Sakura. She was walking down the boardwalk with Rune.

Nyoko noticed this, tapped Lee on his shoulder, and happily said, “Don’t think too much on it, Lee. I’m sure they’re just getting some ice cream or something.”

Lee nodded with a weak smile and said, “I hope you’re right.”

The next morning, Sakura was in the bathroom combing her hair, when she heard a knocking at the bedroom door. She quickly finished combing her hair and went to the door. Upon answering it, she smiled at seeing Rune standing there.

“Ready for breakfast?” he asked with his arm outstretched for her to take. Sakura nodded and wrapped her arm around his.

As they were leaving, Lee saw them going down the stairs. He sighed and went back into his room. Lee sat on his bed and thought to himself. I guess they’re together now. That’s what I get for waiting so long to ask her... I just hope that Rune's good to her. Yet, something's not right with this picture...
