Loneliness Lost- Chapter one
The raindrops falling from the heavens, splashed upon the ground. Her window was fogged from the long breaths she took. Drawing a heart with her finger in the middle of it all. She stared out longing to be held. Longing to be kissed, by one guy, one guy only, Li.
It had been almost one year since Li and her had talked, that year when she was fifteen. They had loved like nothing could split them apart. But then it just went all wrong. All wrong. Sakura and Li were no more. It wasn't like those beautiful days when she was ten. Capturing cards together, laughing at dawn, they were shielded. Shielded from all the things happening in the world. Now it was all visible, the pain of love, the pain of death.
~Flashback~
"But Li!" she cried aloud. She grabbed onto Li's strong arm with tears streaming down her face. The hard pouring rain soaked both of them head to toe. "No Li! Don't leave me! Don't go!"
"Sakura, Shut up!" yelled Li. "You gotta leave! Now go! Go now!" He shook the girl off his arm and kept walking at a fast pace. "Go to Eli!" Sakura lay on the ground, stunned and pained. Both physically and mentally. She watched as Li walked off into the darkness and the rain.
~end of flashback~
Why Li? After that I never saw you again! You know I loved you! thought Sakura, all emotional. She cried herself to sleep.
"Sakura!" yelled Tori. "Come on get up sleepyhead!" Sakura moaned loudly. "Time for school!" Tori walked in and sprayed some water at her. He laughed loudly and soon so did Sakura.
But school didn't mean much without Li nearby. He had left after that rainy day, never to come back to Readington high. She looked down so Tori made her some breakfast.
She walked down the halls at school with her head up high with a smile. A disguise that was noticeable by none, but Madison. Chelsea, Nikki and Rita all didn't wonder, they were convinced she was fine by now.
"Hey Sakura!" greeted Madison in the sweetest voice possible. She knew the girl was hurting. "Guess what Sakura?"
"Yea Madison?" sakura replied in her cheerful way.
"Um…well, it's about Li," said Madison slowly as not to hurt her poor girl.
"It's okay Madison, really, I'm over him. He didn't like me any more. That's the way things go I guess. Hey…."
"Li's coming back!" interrupted Madison, annoyed of Sakura's constant babble.
A wave of emotions hit her like a punch from the fight card. Her eyes welled up. She was depressed, joyful and confused among other indescribable feelings. After the feelings subsided Sakura frowned. "What about Meilin?" She had left with Li. Following him around like a lost puppy.
Madison giggled. "Well, I dunno really…"
"Hey Sakura!" a voice yelled from behind. Sakura spun around to see the face of the boy who caused trouble for her, Eli. "Hey Sakura!" he puffed again. "Scuse me Madison, can I talk to sakura for a minute please?"
Madison smiled and trotted off to class early.
"Well, Sakura." Eli blushed loudly. Sakura giggled at the redness of Eli's cheeks. He does seem cute. thought Sakura. "Um…Sakura…well I err…" he paused. Then he blurted "Sakura will you go out with me?"
"What?" Sakura cried, shocked as can be. "Eli…" She stared into his dark eyes, engrossed in his fabulous smile. He took off his glasses and started to wipe them with his uniform.
"Well, Sakura, if you don't want to its okay." He said with a hint of pain. At that moment while he stared down at the ground. His eyes shaded by his hair. Sakura suddenly felt pain in her heart.
"Yes Eli, ok" she smiled. Eli lifted his head and smiled that familiar smile that she loved so much. He beamed. They arranged a date for that Friday.
Sakura walked happily to Japanese class. Slightly skipping. Her heart felt renewed. Not empty like Li. She revelled in the thought that Li didn't like Eli and was oh so jealous of him.
Suddenly she saw something that frightened her. Li.
"Hi Sakura." He said cheerfully, as if nothing had happened! Sakura mad as ever snubbed him and ignored his greeting completely. They both walked into the classroom. Li sat beside Sakura. She felt infuriated! How can he act so cool and calm? Like he hadn't hurt me! Why is he staring at me?she thought.
"Look Sakura, I know I hurt you…" Li started, sounding very sincere. Sakura would have gone over and hugged him if Mr. Takida had not come in. Sakura came to her senses and turned away. But her heart still longed for his touch. His kiss.
"Good morning class" greeted Mr. Takida cheerfully. "Now today we will be learning…" he talked on, but to Sakura all she could hear was Li, Li, Li! In her head, his name pounding away!
"Mr. Takida" Sakura interrupted. "May I go to the washroom please?" She just had to get away from the guy who was causing her so much pain.
"May I go too Mr. Takida?" said Li suddenly.
"Yes, yes, go now just hurry back, you don't want to miss today's lesson! We have a test next week alright?"
"Yes Mr. Takida," said both simultaneously. Sakura turned around to see Madison with a confused look.
Outside Li pulled on Sakura's arm. "Wait Sakura" he said it in a way that made Sakura freeze in mid walk.
"Sakura, I missed you."
"Are you crazy Li?" she cried "YOU LEFT ME!" her voice echoed through the halls. "I…I loved you damn it!" she whispered softer.
"I know Sakura, there was a reason! Let me explain," pleaded Li. The look he gave her made her blush, but she was nevertheless angry so stormed off towards the washroom. He followed her but stopped at the door. Sakura slammed it back but it stopped before hitting Li. Li pleaded and pleaded.
"SHUT UP! SHUT UP!" cried Sakura aloud. "LEAVE ME ALONE!" she sobbed aloud, with her back against the door.
"Sakura…" said Li slowly.
"Li, I don't want to hear it! Leave me alone!" she said hurt by her own words. Sakura had spent days weeping when he left her, now she was pushing him away! She thought quickly. "Eli and I are together now!" her heart shattered at what she just muttered. What? What have I done? "Li? Li?"
The silence was deafening. She wiped the falling tears with the back of her hand. It was eerie. She slowly opened the door.
"Whoa!" cried Chelsea. "Watch it now"
"Oh sorry Chelsea" This was the end, she had lost him forever. Lost the true love of her life, because of the anger, because of the hate, because of the long loneliness. "Oh Li!" She darted out the door searching with eager eyes. Searching for her love.
"Li?" she whispered questioned the hallways.
After looking long enough she decided to get back. She opened the door, and walked to her seat, head bent over staring to the floor. Then she looked up to see her seat, beside it sat Li. He was staring blankly at his math book? No, chemistry! It was Japanese class!
"Li?" she whispered after being seated. "Um…Li?" she repeated like the echo through the hall. But Li with no reply sat still, in a deep trance. Then like a stroke of lightning, he fell to the floor.
"LI!" everyone turned and cried. Li lay unconscious with eyes closed. Sakura laid his head on her lap. Tears dropping from her face had landed upon her love.
"Back away, give him some room!" cried Mr. Takida. "Can someone bring him to the nurse?" asked the frenzied teacher.
"I'll help," offered Sakura. "I'll help…" Sakura and Zack brought him to the nurse's office. Where they waited outside.
"It's alright, he just had a headache, though a bad one. We'll send him home he'll be alright." She smiled at the concerned faces. Sakura sighed aloud.
My Li is safe. My Li.
