Cardcaptor Sakura: A promise is a promise
Chapter 6
Syaoran: Were you passing by?
Sakura: Ummm… Tomoyo and I were at that shop just looking around.
Syaoran: Oh… well I better get going. Goodnight.
Sakura: Goodnight.
Syaoran disappeared. Sakura felt happy at the moment but then disappointed. She wanted him to give a real smile. "Why couldn't he do that…?" Tomoyo got out and saw Sakura pink.
Tomoyo: Sakura you're blushing…
Sakura: Really? (wipes face) Sorry about that.
Tomoyo: Let's go back. It's getting pretty late now.
Sakura: Okay…
They went back to Tomoyo's and said goodbye. Sakura walked home and passed by King Penguin Park and stared at the moonlight then the water. She saw a flashback of Syaoran's face appeared in the water. She stared at the water and tears fell down, but now she held her tears back. She wanted to be happy so her friends won't get worried. She walked on and on and got inside the house. She took dash, lying down on the couch and brought him to the room. She then placed him on the bed and he snuggled and fell asleep beside Kero. Sakura got a change of clothes and then fell asleep. The next day, she went to the grocery and saw Syaoran again.
Sakura: good morning Syaoran!
Aiya: (whispers to Syaoran) it's Sakura.
Syaoran: Good Morning Sakura.
Aiya: Syaoran we have to go. We'll see you Sakura.
Syaoran: Bye.
Sakura: Goodbye then.
Sakura hoped he would turn around and smile but when Sakura turned around he didn't. He just walked on and on. Sakura then saw Eriol and Tomoyo.
Sakura: Tomoyo! Eriol! (Waves)
Tomoyo: Good Morning Sakura.
Eriol: You're back to your old cheerful self again.
Sakura: (smiles) Yeah.
Tomoyo: I'm happy that you're back to normal.
Sakura: I am happy that you are happy.
Tomoyo: Well… We'll see you okay?
Sakura: Yeah.
Eriol: Good luck!
Sakura: With what?
Eriol: The heat.
Tomoyo: Eriol! (lightly slaps his shoulder)
Sakura: Well goodbye then.
Eriol: Goodbye Sakura.
Tomoyo: Call me!
They walked out. Sakura noticed he held Tomoyo's hand. That made Sakura much happier. She got what she needed and went outside. She saw Toya's bike parked in the place she put it and left. She was hoping she would get to sleep the whole day. When she got home she feel asleep for 3 hours and woke up at 5:00 p.m. She heard the phone ringing and answered it. She knew for one thing it was Tomoyo.
Sakura: Hello?
Syaoran: Sakura are you there?
Sakura then suddenly blushed. She got a call from Syaoran. She couldn't say anything.
Sakura: What is it Syaoran?
Syaoran: Can I talk to you at King Penguin Park, the bridge?
Sakura: Ummm… Yeah you can. I'll see you there.
Syaoran: okay. Bye.
Syaoran hung up. Sakura put the phone down slowly and leaned on the wall. She grabbed her shoes and ran to the bridge. She thought that Syaoran would apologize. When she got there she saw him leaning on the post.
Syaoran: You're here.
Sakura: Yeah… What did you want to talk about?
Syaoran: Well…
Sakura: Did you want to talk to me about something?
Syaoran: Sakura… It's about us.
Sakura: …Us?
Sakura didn't like this feeling. She just stood there confused. Syaoran went a little nearer and looked at Sakura's emerald green eyes.
Syaoran: the promise we made years ago…
Sakura: It's okay.
Syaoran: Sakura…
Sakura: It's fine.
Syaoran: Can we move on with our lives? I love Aiya and you could find someone greater in the future.
Sakura: That's it?
Syaoran: I am sorry.
Sakura: Syaoran, sorry wouldn't be enough...
Syaoran: Don't call me that…
Sakura: Is this it Syaoran! You want to let go of the past?
Syaoran: (yells) DON"T CALL ME THAT!
Shock and tears filled her eyes. She didn't like the way he said it… She stood there now crying slowly… She now didn't love him that way anymore. She gave up on him…
Syaoran: please call me Li, Sakura. I don't want to hurt anyone. I just wanted to put things back where they were.
Sakura: Thank you for making me understand that Syaoran, that maybe we weren't meant to be together at all. I guess...
Syaoran felt uncomfortable once Sakura called him Li again. After finding out he had given up on her, he just stood there in pain.
Syaoran: Sakura I had no intention to hurt anyone.
Sakura: it's okay…
Sakura put on a smile, a fake smile that Syaoran could see. He didn't say a thing, he couldn't move either. She just walked away. She couldn't stand it anymore…
Sakura: goodbye then. I guess the whole time I waited for you was useless.
Syoaran stood there and hoped she would look back but it was the opposite. She just left then disappeared. Suddenly Aiya came out and went face to face with him.
Aiya: Is she an old girlfriend?
Syaoran: Kinda…
Aiya: Why does she call you Syaoran?
Syaoran: We are close friends.
Aiya: So you liked her before.
Syaoran: it's not that…
Aiya: What is the promise?
Syaoran: nothing…
Aiya: Do you love her or me!
Syaoran: Please don't ask so many questions. I love you, of course… you are my girlfriend.
Eriol was there watching everything behind the post. Syaoran didn't know that Sakura was sitting on the branch on the tree next to where they are. When Sakura got down… Eriol walked up to to her and found her crying nonstop. He didn't want to see her in this condition. Eriol and Tomoyo talked about it then brought her to her house. When Kero saw Sakura he immediately got worried and stayed by her side. Yukito tried to stay calm. Toya hugged her so she could calm down. Eriol grabbed his coat and headed for the door. Tomoyo followed him.
Tomoyo: Don't do it Eriol. Both of you may get serious injuries.
Eriol: I am sorry but he has to learn.
Tomoyo: but please do be careful Eriol.
Eriol: I promise. Trust me okay? (Kisses her)
Tomoyo watched as Eriol left. He had wanted to know if Syaoran really wanted to do that. She slowly walked back to Sakura who was crying. She sat down beside Sakura who was crying a little bit after being confronted by her family.
