Chapter 1: in the dark
The sun is shining brightly in the sky. All the inhabitants of the Daidouji mansion is already awake except for one. A 19 yr. old with long beautiful black hair and pale skin lay on a bed. Tomoyo Daidouji, only daughter of Sonomi Daidouji and the heir to Daidouji Corporations, was asleep on her four poster bed. Several maids already knocked on her door to wake her up but the only response they got were mumbles of "go away" or groan from the young miss. At last, her mother came up to personally wake her up.
Sonomi knocked on her door and waited for her to open up. Tomoyo grumbled loudly and sleepily said, "Go away! I'm trying to sleep here." Sonomi sighed and knocked again on the door, this time louder.
"Tomoyo, get up already! It's already half past nine for goodness sake!" Sonomi said through exasperated voice.
She's been like this ever since her best friend, Sakura Kinomoto went to Hong Kong to study for college and to be with her long time boyfriend, Li Syaoran. It's not like that she doesn't want her best friend to be with the Chinese boy, in fact, she helped a lot to get them together, dropping huge hints to her naïve best friend and encouraging Li to pursue Sakura.
But it can't be denied that her daughter harbour feelings for her best friend. Feelings deeper than sisterly love and it hurt her to know that she will never have her and to make things worse, she won't even be able to see her since Sakura's staying in Hong Kong.
At last, the door opened and revealed Tomoyo. Sonomi smiled at her daughter and briefly hugged her. Tomoyo only stood there, not reacting.
"Come on, breakfast is waiting for you."

Tomoyo's POV
It's another one of those long drab days. Several maids already came up here and tried to wake me up, or at least tried to. I would always say "go away" or something incomprehensible just to make them leave me alone. I don't want to get up from bed. I don't want to face another day. Another day without Sakura.
It's been a year since she left for Hong Kong. Sure, she would send me e- mails and occasionally call me but still, it's not enough to stop the pain. The pain of losing her. losing her to somebody else, and now, she's not even here so I can at least see her or be close to her even if I have to mask my feelings for her as a dear best friend.
I used to think that her happiness is enough to make me happy, so I helped in getting her and Li-kun together. I was content for awhile seeing her happy. As time pass by, she spent more of her time with Li-kun and less time with me, and that got me frustrated. I know that's to be expected but that simple fact slowly ate me away and I soon realized that her happiness is not enough to make me happy. I need HER to make me happy. But another realization hit me. It hit me so hard that it made me crumble and cry. She can never be mine. Her heart belongs to Li-kun and there's nothing I can do about it.
Don't get me wrong, I don't regret in getting them together and I don't hate Li-kun either. I know perfectly well that he can make her happy. I'm just hurt by the fact that she'll never be mine in that way and the hurt intensified when Sakura decided to study in Hong Kong and left a year ago. The pain is so unbearable that it left me numb and cold.
Someone knocked on the door again. I grumbled some curses out loud and said through gritted teeth,
"Go away! I'm trying to sleep here."
Why can't they see that I don't want to get up? That I want to be left alone? I heard someone sigh and heard my mother through the door. I sighed also and pushed my body wearily out of bed. Ugghh. I have to face another day and live a normal life. I've stopped putting up a mask where everyone would seem that nothing's wrong with me. Everyone's used to me being quiet and sticking myself. There's no point of associating with others anyway. They're used to me being cold already.
I put on a pair of capris and a light blue baby-sleeved tee shirt. I combed my hair and quickly fixed my bed. I opened my door and there stood my mother. She smiled at me and hugged me briefly. I didn't do anything. I just stood there, my face devoid of any emotion.
Ever since Sakura left, my feelings also left. They went with her, where ever she is. My mother told me something about breakfast and went downstairs. I decided that it'll be best if I showed up and followed my mother to the dining room.

Author's note: I know Tomoyo's out of character here, but that's what I made her in this story. It's not pure angst, this is a love story. Also this is an E+T story also an S+S but it will focus more on E+T. Sorry for the S+S fans out there. -_-!! And please, please, please review!!! Even if it's flames or anything!
Please REVIEW!!!
