Like We Used To
Prologue
"So Sakura, will you be my girlfriend?"
"Natsume, I... I'm sorry but I just can't…" I answered him tiredly.
He shook his head impatiently. "Why? Is it because you still have feelings for Syaoran? HE had done you wrong! Why must you keep remembering the past? Isn't it about time that you moved on?"
I sighed; knowing that he was right. He wasn't the only person who has told me to do that. It has been a year since I decided to call things off with Syaoran and I still remembered that day perfectly. Yes, a particularly cold winter's day. Despite what he had done, he was still etched in my mind, even until now.
I didn't know what to do. Natsume was a great friend; we immediately became good friends when I met him on the first day of University. He was a good-natured guy, with a cheerful disposition who was constantly there for me when Tomoyo left to Paris to enroll in École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-arts. When I left the University to start an event organizing business, he was the only one who didn't think I had gone completely insane. I love him, almost as much as I loved Syaoran.
"So, is it a yes or a no? I promise I would never let you down Sakura. And I promise, I will do my best to make you forget that…guy."
For some odd, unexplainable reasons, I said yes. He laughed in delight and pulled me into his arms. When I was in his embrace however, memories of Syaoran, of how brilliant he was, and how our relationship came to an end, flooded into my mind.
So whaddya think? I haven't written for a quite a while so forgive me if there are any clichés or grammatical errors! It'll get interesting and you'll find out the reason why Sakura broke up with Syaoran real soon. The next few chapters would be about the time Syaoran and Sakura spent together before their relationship ended. Suggestions, comments, critiques would very much be appreciated! Do keep on reading
