Summary: Sakura's lives with her mum and evil step-father, who beats her
mum, and occasionally Sakura. But what happens when a ambered-eyed boy
comes into the story?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Sakura slowly walked towards her house, afraid of what might be happening inside, but hearing nothing, she quickened her pace. Katie, her 3 year-old half-sister, was obviously left alone inside the house again. The arburn- haired girl reached the letterbox and hastily opened it. Inside were three letters, one was a bill to her step-father, another to her mother, and one for herself. She figured that the letter was proberbly her mid-year exam results. She knew she had passed with flying colours, she always did, even though she never paid any attention in class, she was too distacted, worrying whether Katie and her mother were alright with Robert (Step- father). Sakura was just naturally smart.
Clutching the evenlopes tightly in her hand, she went toward the door and cautiously opened the door. Peaking her head inside, to make sure the coast was clear, and seeing no one, ran toward her bedroom, the one she shared with Katie, quickly dropping two of the letters down on the table. Sighing Sakura closed her door and flopped down onto her bed. This was what she went through everyday, except of course, sometimes Robert was there, yelling or chucking something or another. Jumping up, Sakura went over to Katie. She was sound alseep. 'Of course she's asleep,' Sakura thought. 'She doesn't know a single thing thats happening round here.' With another quick loving glance at Katie, Sakura went back to her bed and looked at her letter.
She picked it up and opened it. She was right, it was her exam results, and as usual she had passed with excellent marks. (A/N I'm not gonna say them because...I can't be bothered) Smiling Sakura reached over to her drawer and opened it. Just as she was about to reach in and gather up her discman (A/N her family's quite rich...) she heard the front door slam shut and then Robert start to yell. "Uh oh..." Silently she picked herself up and headed to the lounge.
Glancing round the side of the door frame, she saw Robert angrily shaking her mother and yelling swear words at her with his right hand. In the other, was the letter Sakura guessed was the Bill. Bill's always Robert more angry then any other time. Suddenly his other hand was hitting her mother's face repeatidly, until Sakura couldn't take it anymore and screamed.
"STOP IT!"
Robert snapped his head round and glared at her. Sakura realising her mistake, ran from the door frame, just as a flower vase, that Robert had thrown flew passed her and hit the wall, smashing into deadly pieces. Sakura, scared and angry that she could do nothing for her mother, ran to her room and locked the door, crying herself to sleep.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning Sakura woke up, remembering what happened last night, she walked over to Katie's cot and took the bottle, her mother had obviously prepared for Katie early that morning and gave it to her. Silently she got into her school uniform. Making sure that Robert had left for work, Sakura walked to the bathroom, glancing quickly into the mirror (she had grown to dislike mirrors, because of all the bruises she used to have) she saw her tear-stained face. Knowing that the teachers would be suspicious, she washed her face. Once she had finished preparing for school, she went to her room and picked up Katie, today was Wednesday, and that meant that Katie would go to her grandmothers place, who lived just round the block. Sakura left and the house and walked to school, after dropping Katie at her grandmother's place of course.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------
It was first period and already Sakura and lost all concentration. The teacher's ignored this, knowing that she was one of the top students, they didnt bother to make her pay attention. Suddenly the door swung open, and inside stepped the principal, a short, plump, grey haired old man.
"Good morning 3-A, I have the pleasure today to introduce to you today, a brand new student. But before we do, is there any seats available?"
Everyone glanced around, only to find that the only seat available was next to the day-dreaming arburn-haired girl. Pure dis-like came from the classes stares. No-one liked her, she was weird according to them, even though none of them had ever taken the time to try and get to know her.
"Ah, yes, next to Miss Sakura Kinomoto, good, a top student. This will do great, seeing as Mr. Syaoran Li was the top of his old high school. Mr Li, you may come in"
A few seconds later, a hesitant brown haired, amber eyed boy stepped into the room, searching for the seat Mr Pullman (Principal) had been talking about. Soon he found it, next to a beautiful (according to him, not to the rest of the class) girl, who wasn't paying attention. This of course, intrigued Syaoran, because in all his life, no one had been into the same room as him without drooling over him. Confidently he strolled over to Sakura, and tapped her shoulder, as soon as Sakura snapped her head up and turned round, Syaoran stuck out his hand saying "Hi, my name's Li Syaoran, you must be Sakura?"
