"Zutto isshoni…"

We promised to be together forever. Together for the rest of our existence, for the rest of our lives. He is all I want. He is all I need. He is Syaoran-kun… but… why? Why is this happening?

There is this tradition which is more like a rule in the clan, the Li Clan, Syaoran-kun didn't told me about it, Meilin-chan did, that those who are born INSIDE the clan cannot marry someone OUTSIDE the clan. The Li Clan is so big so they choose someone who is a far-away relative of yours. The moment you are born, you already someone for you to be with, for you to marry. And once you turn eighteen, it is time to meet that someone…

CHAPiTRE 1

"WiTHOUT YOU..."

*Penguin Park*

"Always remember that I love you and I always will no matter what happens. I will do everything for you. Never, ever give up and let go. OK?" Syaoran said as he looked deeply in Sakura's eyes.

"What are you saying? It sounds like we're parting or something like that..." Sakura looked at him, worried.

"…um… well… i… no... of course…not… I mean… no…"

"You look sad… doushitano? Daijoubu?"

"Nothing… im just… tired… I guess…"

"Oh… well then… should we go home now?"

"No. Let's stay a bit longer. I want to remember your face and the way you smile."

*Year 2 Class 2 Room*

"Huh? Syaoran-kun? Where are-?! The Classroom?!" Sakura was confused. She heard her classmates, Chiharu, Rika and Naoko, talking about Syaoran and listened.

"Hey! Have you heard? Li-kun is going back to Hong Kong to meet his REAL FIANCE!"

"WHAT? Honto? What about Sakura-chan?"

"Maybe he doesn't like her anymore…?

"Poor Sakura-chan..."

"Not to loud! She might hear you…!"

"What are they talking about? Syaoran-kun… is gone? That can't be true…"

Sakura walked towards Tomoyo and Meilin and happened to hear them as well…

"Meilin-chan, when is he coming back?" Tomoyo whispered.

"Well… the truth is…Syaoran won't be able to-… KINOMOTO-SAN?!" Meilin was shocked when she saw her.

"What? Where is he?" Sakura's tears started falling.

"Kinomoto-san…Syaoran won't be able to come back… anymore…" Meilin can't look in Sakura's eyes. But she had to do it.

"Hoe? ... uso… That's a lie! You're lying!! He didn't tell me anything!!"

"He doesn't want to see you crying … so… he asked me to tell you…"

"No… no… NO!! Syaoran-kun…"

"SAKURA!! SAKURA!!OI! SAKURA!!"

"Hoe?...Who-?"

It was all a dream… again. Sakura has been dreaming this always. She misses Syaoran so much. It has been three years since he left and she's still hoping that he will come back for her. She never forgot about what he said to her, 'never give up…don't let go…'…

"You were dreaming again about that kid?" Kero-chan has always been the one who wake her up.

"… yeah…" Sakura stood and saw the plush he gave her and tears are forming in her eyes again.

"You cried enough. You should forget about him already. I bet he's already happy there with his fiancé."

"NO! Syaoran-kun wouldn't do that! I know that he'll come back. He told me to hold on and I will. I trust him. He never broke his word.

Kero left and went to the kitchen to eat. Touya and Fujitaka isn't around so he can go there whenever he wants.

"Is he really happy there? With his fiancé? Maybe Kero-chan is right…I should move on and step forward… because Syaoran-kun isn't here anymore… he's not here with me…"
