Chapter One
Sakura POV
Summer is fading away. I don't want it to go yet. I love the beach. I'll miss the memories Tomoyo and I made during summer. The laughs, the smiles, everything that happened this summer will be memories. It's all too good to end. Not all but I'll put that aside. Why? Why should it-
"Sakura-chan! ", my father called from downstairs. "Tomoyo-san is here to pick you up!" "Hai, otou-san! I'll be right down!" I replied. Tomoyo-chan is early as usual. She doesn't waste any time. I grabbed my jacket and ran down the stairs. That's when I heard…
"Tomoyo, make sure the kaijuu doesn't get in trouble! No boys! No flirting! No drinking! Any problem that happens, you call me. Okay, Tomoyo?" my childish yet mature brother yelled loud enough for the whole village to hear. Stupid onii-san. I ran back upstairs and stomped on his foot.
"That's for calling me a kaijuu even when I'm not!" Then I pinched his arm really hard. "And that's for yelling so loud to my best friend about nonsense! For your information onii-san, I am fifteen years old and I don't need any stupid older brother to look out for me every time! Geesh you're stricter than dad!"
He gave me that oh-so-famous glare of his. I glared back at him. Two can play at that game. We stood there and glared at each other until Tomoyo-chan ran up and pulled me so fast down the stairs to the point that I almost stumbled.
"Ja ne, oji-san! Touya-kun! She'll be back by 7:30 at the most!" Tomoyo-chan said as she dragged me across my living room.
"Bye, otou-san! Bye, stupid onii-san who has nothing to do but to barge into other people's lives!" I said, grinning.
"Bye girls, have a nice time." My dad waved at us as we walked out the door. Finally Tomoyo-chan let go. It's as if she thought I'd run off to the forest when she held me. It hurt. Not painful hurt or anything she just grabbed me on my left arm where I hurt myself this morning when I woke up.
By the way, my name is Sakura Kinomoto. I am 15 years old. Tomoyo Daidouji is my best friend. Today, we are going to the mall. Tomoyo-chan said that we should have new clothes because it's already fall. Summer just ended. What a bummer. Anyway, we go to Tomeoda High School. I don't know why we need new clothes because our school has uniforms but anyway, you'll never win in an argument with Tomoyo-chan.
Normal POV
The two girls stayed inside a car on their way to the mall. "Sakura-chan, since it's a new school term, you're going to need a makeover! Oh, that'll be so kawaii, Sakura-chan! You'll go to school tomorrow with a new hairstyle and will make every guy fall in love with you again!" Tomoyo said with starry eyes.
"Uh, anou Tomoyo-chan, I don't think I'll need a new hairdo. I just changed it this summer." Sakura replied with a sweat drop.
"Oh ho ho, Sakura-chan! People might get tired of your hairstyle! I wasn't the only one who saw your look this summer! You should change it sometime… or maybe now. You should grow it long for fall, winter is on the way." Tomoyo said with her smile still on her face.
Sakura sighed deeply. She was grateful. "But that doesn't mean that I will stop making clothes for you! I will still make and buy your clothes! We will have our prom this year and I hope you'll allow me to do the honor of making your dress!" Tomoyo continued. School hadn't started yet but Tomoyo was already thinking of the prom.
"Sure, Tomoyo-chan! I'll let you do my prom dress, but isn't that a hindrance in making your own? You might not be able to make yours if you make mine." Sakura said hopefully.
"Sakura-chan! Are you underestimating me?" Tomoyo said in a mock hurt voice. "You don't want me to make your dress because you think it'll be ugly or I won't make it in time?" "
"No!" Sakura defended herself. "I was just worried about you!"
The car stopped. The door was opened by Tomoyo's bodyguards. Tomoyo and Sakura stepped out of the car. "We will pick you up at seven, miss." One of the bodyguards told Tomoyo. They bowed to her and Sakura, and drove off. Tomoyo faced Sakura and dragged her inside the magnificent glass doors of Yume Mall. Tomoyo breathed in deeply. "Ah, the mall, shopping time!"
Time passed and was already 7pm. They were holding tons of carrier bags. They went to Mango, Chanel, Guess, Levi's and so many other stores. The car was waiting for them outside.
Sakura's POV
I stare out the window of the moving vehicle. Tomorrow will be a new day, a new beginning. It's the first day of school. I don't know if I'm gonna do okay tomorrow or not. I feel like I'm still not over it. Can I face him tomorrow? I don't know. It still hurts deep inside. I know that for a fact.
Flashback (3 months ago)
"Hey, it's the start of the vacation tomorrow. Do you want to go anywhere for vacation?" a girl with auburn hair asks.
"Sorry Sakura-chan. I'll be in Texas for the summer. My family said that I should practice how to manage a farm." A boy with a height of 6 feet replies to the girl in front of him. Their height was not much of a difference because the girl is tall.
"Oh." She says. Her head down and hair covering her face. She looks back up and smiles. "That's okay. I'll get to spend time with you at school anyway right Takumi-kun?"
"Yeah. Sure Sakura-chan. I'll be off then. I have to pack. Ja ne!" he says and sprints away from her.
"Takumi-kun has been very distant these past few weeks. Does he still love me? Usually he kisses me before he leaves. Why change all of a sudden Takumi? Why?" she mumbles. She stands in front of the school gate alone. The wind brushes her hair and a pair of emerald orbs reveals. They reflect hut, confusion and disappointment. She walks back home still deep in thought. By the time she reachs her front porch, she places a fake smile on her face and pushes the previous thoughts at the back of her mind. "Maybe he was just disappointed that he couldn't spend time with me so he shut himself so that I couldn't see. How thoughtful of him."
A month passed
At the beach, "Tomoyo-chan! There's a band playing at the other side! It's a bit far but let's go!" Sakura says to Tomoyo. As they walk through the trees, they hear some giggling behind the trees. Curiosity fills Tomoyo and she decides check it out. Fear somehow overcomes Sakura. She heard some stories that this island is haunted. "Tomoyo-chan, maybe we shouldn't. What if it's a ghost luring us to its trap and will eat us?" Sakura whispers. "Stop it Sakura-chan. Those are only stories to entertain campfire moments." They were near the bushes and they start hearing voices.
"Hey, stop it. You have a girlfriend you know." A girl's voice says.
"Are you jealous?" asks a guy.
"No, but it's a bit unfair to cheat on her." She says teasingly.
"She won't know unless this hot girl in front of me would spill." The guy says and more giggling sounds. "Besides, I never liked her in the first place. She is pretty I admit, and rich too but she's very open minded. She's also gullible and will believe any lie I will tell her. She's stupid too. I just asked her out because she was very popular—and she doesn't know it. She's just a toy, while you are so much more. She thinks I'm in Texas in my family's farm. She said that we could spend time in school and there's nothing to worry about. How pathetic. She's also very childish and always has a smile plastered on her face which can make you see that she's very easy to fool. I was her first boyfriend though. Just sang her a song in a party and she believed that I wrote it." The boy says as moans were heard.
Sakura was shocked. It couldn't be. Takumi isn't the only guy who could have a farm in Texas right? She wanted to see it for herself. She walks toward to the bushes and sees a boy over a half-naked girl on a mat. The girl shrieks which causes the boy to look behind. Takumi.
"How could you! How could you!" says Tomoyo and slaps Takumi hard on the face. "Sakura let's go. Don't mind him. He wasn't worth it anyway. Sakura come on! We'll miss the band!" she was already shaking Sakura but she stands still.
"She's Sakura?" asks the girl and Sakura looks at her. 'Why?' she thinks. 'Why why why?'
"S-saku-chan, baby! Let me explain! I thought sh—" Takumi starts but Sakura cuts him off. "Stuff it Murakami-san. Stupid? Pathetic? Gullible? Is that all you see in me? Some rich and pretty girl you could play with? Now I see with my own eyes that men are really like that. I never thought that my brother would be right. I thought you were different." Sakura says monotonously and leaves after that.
Present time
"Takumi Murakami..." Sakura mumbled. Tomoyo looked at her with concerned eyes. "Sakura-chan, daijobu?" Sakura, realizing what she said looked at Tomoyo. "Uhm, Tomoyo-chan, I can't face Murakami-kun. I'm still not over the fact I was cheated on. It still hurts but I know that I'm over him. It's just, it still hurts..." she stumbled over her own words.
"It'll be alright Sakura-chan. It'll be alright." Tomoyo assured her best friend.
"Yeah," Sakura said yet she can't convince herself. The pain is still etched within her heart.
Tomoyo dropped Sakura off. "See you tomorrow, Sakura-chan!" Tomoyo yelled as her car drove away.
"Mata ne!" Sakura replied waving. As soon as Tomoyo's car wasn't in sight, Sakura dropped her hand and opened her front door.
"I'm home!" Sakura shouted as she entered the living room. She placed her coat on the hanger.
"Sakura-chan, you're home! I did not expect you 'til 8." Fujitaka said from the kitchen. "You're just in time for dinner."
"The kaijuu's home already? Are you sure you made enough food? She'll eat it all up." Touya stepped into the living room smirking.
"Sakura wa kaijuu jyanai yah, onii-san" Sakura yelled as she stomped on Touya's foot. Touya winced.
"Arrgh! Just proves you're a horrid monster." Touya mumbled while holding his aching foot. Too bad for Touya she was wearing new high heels that she bought.
Fujitaka appeared from the kitchen smiling. "Touya, stop teasing your sister. You should know that by now.. Alright, it's time to eat."
They finished dinner. It was already 8:30pm and Sakura was tired. She still had school tomorrow. She went up to her room and changed her clothes
'School... He'll be nothing to me. I'll prove that to him. I won't be affected. I don't need him.' She thought as she changed into her pajamas. She soon fell into deep slumber.
