She plays the piano, the soft tune of the andante melody soothing her, letting her forget. And so she forgets.
She forgets the bridesmaid gown in her room.
She forgets the wedding tomorrow.
And she forgets the indescribable sorrow she tries to cover up. Because Li Syaoran will be marrying her best friend.
But she shrugs the thought off for the moment and plays the piano.
Her playing can only let her escape from reality for a time being, and when it ends, she is again consumed by grief. She tells herself that it was either her or Tomoyo, and that thought makes her forget how much she loves him.
But when she looks into his amber eyes when she accidentally bumps into him, nothing can stop the tears from falling.
He grabs her wrist as she tries to run away. "Sakura."
She doesn't look at him, not wanting to show her tears. "Congratulations," she chokes out, fearing the silence.
"I can't marry her," he says helplessly.
"You have to," she whispers. "You lo-love Tomoyo."
He wraps his arms around her and buries his face in her hair.
"Don't assume what you don't know," he whispers, and her tears increase. For a moment she lets him hold her, but when he kisses her softly on the lips, she pulls away.
"No…" she says hoarsely, and shakes her head before running off.
And she locks herself in her room, playing the piano, tears running down her face.
