It's no surprise to anyone that Gaara has been a monster in the eyes of others. His father, his siblings - it's all, or was, utterly useless in this boy's eyes. People judging is common, but is it really normal? Come on, just look at this boy's childhood. The redhead had nothing, emotionally speaking. Wrapping a rope around his relatives' necks would be the only thing that would truly put a smile on his face right now. It's unusual for a child, yes, he's aware - but he's not a child, right? He's a monster, others said. If they think he's a freak, he'll be one. He is. Just meeting expectations.

Konoha wasn't something that surprised him - it's common. A village with ninjas, what's the big deal? You. There's you. You're so weird!! How come your eyes can tear up every time he passes by? Initially, Gaara believed it was fear, but it wasn't. Is this boy really a sight for sore eyes for you? It's full of contrast for someone with his background. That never happened. His primitive thought was to kill you, which he tried to do, but apparently didn't finish the job, because when he was about to, the only thing you did was compliment the tattoo on his forehead. Gaara remembers his own questioning to your sweet voice. Weird person.

It's another one of those silly times when you're secretly following him and really think he's not noticing. Foolishness! Gaara muttered a few 'get out's, but since you pretended to be oblivious and kept following him, Gaara stayed quiet - maybe he was curious to see how far you'd go. That's exactly why he appeared behind you abruptly. Surprise! "Why are you following me?" His hoarse voice exhaled as the redhead crossed his arms in front of his chest, the sand coffin swaying on his back. The boy's eyes seemed to become slightly calmer when he noticed the almost admiring expression on your face. How can you be so crazy?
