It's just, I was hoping the next time Iruka-sensei treated me to ramen would be on the day when I finally became a Chunin. Every single one of my classmates has made the leap up to Chunin. The only one who's still a Genin is me.
I know I know. But even that wasn't a walk in the park. That Pervy Sage is out of control! His training's so intense it messed up the headband you gave me. And all my clothes got totally ruined too. That's why I had to go get this new outfit made for me and a replacement cloth for my headband.
I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE! I know why they're after Gaara and me. It's not like it's a mystery to me. You know too, don't you Sakura? There's no point hiding it. The spirit of the Nine Tailed Fox is sealed away inside of me. [Temari is surprised, Kakashi sympathizes, and Sakura realizes why the village shunned him] Gaara and I are the same. We both have monsters locked inside us. That's what these bastards are after. And that's the worst part about it! To them we're just monsters! All those bastards see is the means to an end! Everything about us was exactly the same. And he had to fend for himself a lot longer than I ever did.
And now he's the target of the Akatsuki, one more thing we have in common. Why should his life be so full of misery all the time? Why is it always him? That's why I've got to hurry. I don't have a second to waste! This time will be different. I'm gonna be there to save him!
