Weird story but I've always wanted to dress Sakura-chan up like a guy! And plus I love these kind of stories!! Hehe!

The Girl Who Cried Man

Sakura sighed lightly and tied her hair in a long ponytail. Her extremely long hair fell lightly into place on her slender back. She stepped into view of her full length mirror and eyed herself critically. Sighing deeply, she touched the mirror with her small hand and sniffled.

"Goodbye, Sakura," she whispered. "I'll miss you."

She took a pair of pink scissors and cut off the ponytail, sending four feet of honey locks tumbling to the floor.

"Tomoyo will kill me," she muttered.

"Sakuraaaa!!"

"...right now."

Tomoyo Daidouji burst into the room, carrying with her three large suitcases. "I brought some stuff for you to try on for the-ACK! WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR HEAD!? YOUR BEAUTIFUL HONEY COLORED HEAD?!"

Wailing in despair, she picked up the ponytail and caressed it in her arms, whispering soothing words. Sakura sweat-dropped.

"Tomoyo, it's just hair."

"IT WAS NOT JUST HAIR! IT WAS YOUR PRIDE AND JOY!!! THE EPITOME OF HAPPINESS!"

"Tomo-"

"THE EPITOME!"

"You know the only way I'll get over it is by doing this..."

"THE EPITooohhm Sakura..." Tomoyo suddenly lost her hyperness and dropped the band of hair, sending it slipping to the ground slowly. Sakura dropped to her knees, silent tears cascading down her porcelain face.

"It's ok, Sakura... it's ok..."

Sakura walked home from school, swinging her report card around blithely. She approached her house and located her mother in the kitchen. She quietly sneaked up the steps and into the house. Sakura then crept into the kitchen and hid behind her mother.

"BOOO!" She screamed.

"AAAAH!" Nadeshiko yelped, her hand slipping off the carrot she was slicing. It slid into her wrist, sending blood gushing all over the counter. Sakura screamed in terror and tried to help, but was paralyzed in fear.

Nadeshiko slid to the floor, her face growing pale.

"Sakura..." her eyes slid into the back of her head, and she was no more.

"OKAA-SAN!"

"It... it was- all my fault!" Sakura screamed, burying her face into Tomoyo's lap. Tomoyo sighed lovingly and caressed Sakura's shaking head.

"Sakura, she's in a better place now, it's ok..." she soothed.

"No it's not, Tomoyo! Because of me she DIED! I KILLED MY MOTHER! DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THAT?!" Sakura wailed, jumping to her feet and running out of the room.

"SAKURA!"

---------------------

Sakura ran through the streets of Tomoeda, Japan, aimlessly escaping reality. Random passerby stared at her counfusedly. Some eyed her pitifully. A little girl with red eyes and blonde hair looked at her and screamed, "Mommy is that a boy or a girl?" Her mother hurridely shooed her into a store with a red face.

I'm not either, she thought. I'm a murderer.

Slowly, Sakura sat down on a swing at Penguin Park. She looked around at the world, at all the happy, smiling people. This was the life she was supposed to live. This was the life her mother was supposed to live. But Sakura was too busy killing her mother and her mother was too busy being dead.

"Why me..." she muttered.

"Because life hates us all?"

Sakura looked up to see a young man with a green shirt and blue jeans sit down beside her. "I've thought that question so many times, and that's the only answer that I can seem to come up with."

A few minutes they spent in silence. She looked up at him with a little smile. He smiled and looked up at the sky. "But maybe, just maybe, there's something that can make everything worthwhile."

"What?" she asked, full of curiosity.

"Love," he whispered. Standing up slowly he walked a few paces and stopped.

"But you know, maybe I'm wrong." And with that, the young man walked away into the world, disappearing as quickly as her happiness.

Sakura sat there until the sun dropped below the horizon, alone and confused. "Love..."

She looked up at the sky, into the faint stars and the crescent moon.

"...what is love?"

------------

Sakura walked slowly to her bedroom, trying not to wake her family. She opened the door to find a weeping Tomoyo on the ground. Sakura smiled and walked over to her.

"Tomoyo... hey I'm sorr-"

"SAKURA SAKURA SAKURA I THOUGHT I'D NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN! OH MY GOSH I'M SO SORRY I DIDN'T MEAN TO MAKE YOU SO SAD OH GOSH I AM SOOO INCREDIBLY SORRY!" Tomoyo glomped Sakura with sobs and wails of despair.

"Tomoyo-chan I forgive you... hey, I thought of a great idea!" Sakura patted Tomoyo on the head and smiled. Sniffling slightly, Tomoyo beamed up at Sakura.

"What is it, Sakura-dono?" Tomoyo whispered, bowing to the ground in front of Sakura with stars in her eyes. Sakura giggled nervously and pulled Tomoyo up to her feet.(-dono is like "lord" and it's even more honorable than -sama, which is like master and way more honorable than -san or -chan or -sensei or ANY OF THAT CRAP!)

(it's not really crap)

"I should disguise myself as a boy. Then, I wouldn't have to be around girls all the time, so I wouldn't be reminded of- well, it."

"Sakura-chan...as a boy...AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAA!" Tomoyo screamed, rolling on the floor.

"I'm serious!" Sakura screamed, pulling on her now short hair and jumping around frantically. Tomoyo finally gained her composure and stood up shakily.

"Well, Sakura, if that's what you want..." Tomoyo trailed off into her own little mind, leaving Sakura hanging on a string.

"I'LL MAKE SAKURA-CHAN THE CUTEST BOY EVER!" she screamed.

"Keep in down in there you whippersnappers!" an old lady from across the street yelled.

Sakura yelped an apology and turned back to Tomoyo(with stars in her eyes and imagining how she should dress Sakura) and sweatdropped.

What the heck have I gotten myself into?
