Chapter 1 Heartbreak

Sakura POV

"All passengers who are boarding the airplane to New York, America, please come to the check-in at 'flight A4' in 5 minutes,'" the announcement called out form the PA.

"Let's go Sakura dear," my dad Fujitaka said to me while carrying a brown-coloured bag, loaded with personal things. He has light brown hair, framing over a kind and gentle face. My dad has the nicest looking eyes that belong to a gentle soul. He wore brown-framed glasses.

"Ok Dad!" I replied. I looked around once more at my beautiful country, and hurried over.

We boarded the plane and went to our seats in the Economics Class beside a window. I looked out the window thinking about what had happen the night before.

Flashback

I have always had a secret crush on our popular school jock, Li Syaoran. We were good friends since Grade 2, which was 10 years ago. We still are friends, but, I want to go beyond just being 'friends'. So, finally after all those years of chatting with him, I decided to ask him out on a date with me. To my heart's content he agreed!

So now, I am preparing my soft honey-brown hair to look absolute gorgeous for the date. I choose a tight red that outline my curves. It glitters in the moonlight. It was strapless and shows most of my neck and some cleavage. The dress was attached to the sleeves that came below my shoulders. The red dress matched with my ruby high heels. I know I may be over-acting a bit, but still, it was the hottest jock in the whole school!

To top it all of, I add some pink shiny lip gloss. I examined myself in the mirror carefully and smiled. I was perfectly dazzling. I fixed my hair a few more times then walked down the stairs.

Oh God, I can't believe this! My heart won't stop pounding! Ok girl, chill out. Look cool and confident.

Just as I reached the bottom of the stairs the doorbell rang. Ding Dong.

I opened the door and saw an incredibly hot looking male, who else other than Li. He was wearing a casual outfit, a green t-shirt and a pair of baggy beige jeans. He looked at me with those intense amber eyes. He looked kind of surprised to see me looking so formal. I was the shy, quiet type. I suddenly feel foolish about my outfit, but no turning back now.

I brushed back my hair behind my shoulders and stared right into his eyes, trying to drown him with my emerald orbs.

"Hello Syao," I said smoothly, trying to be seductive.

"Ummm hi Sakura," he replied nervously, "are you ready to go?"

"Yes."

We walked around the Penguin Park, not as a couple though, at least not yet. He led me to a white bench and told me to sit down. He looked at me strangely.

"What is wrong with you today?" he asked me.

"Huh?" I was taken by surprise. I didn't expect that kind of question from him. "Well," I started nervously, I closed my eyes. 'It's now or never!' "I had always liked you. I really want to know what you think of me." I look hopeful, searching his eyes trying to find any hints or clues.

"Sakura?" he replied softly, he clasped my tiny hands in his big strong ones. I could have fainted right there. Actually, it would be better for me if I did. Because what he was about to say had hurt me so bad.

"Yes?"

"I… well Sakura, I never really thought of you anymore more than a good friend," he told me quietly. I was close to tears. "I know we've been together for a lot of things. You are a great person. Everyone knows that. It's just…there's no chemistry in us. Do you understand?"

I did not respond, but instead hang my head fighting back the urge to cry.

"Sakura?" he asked worriedly and lifted my chin with his fingers.

I stiffened, and slapped his hands away. "Don't touch me," I said coldly. I let my tears run freely down my face.

"I'm sorry Sak--" I interrupted him. "It's Kinomoto to you now, Li." He winced at my unexpected coldness. "Nice talking to you, Li, for it will be your last."

"What do you mean Sak--" I glared at him, "Kinomoto?"

"My dad's taking me away to America tomorrow in the morning. So farewell." I spun on my heels at walked away. He didn't even bother chasing after me. My tears kept shedding as I sobbed quietly in the night, running back home with my face in my hands.
