PREVIOUS CHAPTER…
"Sakura, I think this belongs to you," he smiled at me.
"Thank you, Syaoran," as I looked at the bear with soft eyes.
'And that was how Syaoran thanked me for what I had done for him during the Ferris wheel ride.'

Chapter 6: Heartbroken and Fallen
After reading that entry from grandma's journal, I realized Syaoran was really a sweet guy. I wished I got a chance to hear her sing. Anyways, I decided I should get started on my "little pile" of homework.
"Math... Was never an interesting subject," twirling the pencil around my fingers. Scribble, scribble, scribble. It was just a page out of the math text book, but it seemed to take forever to finish.
"There!" I smiled, "Finished."
I looked around, and my eyes passed by the time. 6:15PM. I checked outside, it wasn't that dark. The weather seemed peaceful and calm.
"I guess one more entry won't hurt..."
- (!#$&) - - - (&$#!) –
'December 24th... It's Christmas Eve, and I haven't been writing a lot lately. Been very busy with school. But I assure you when something big happens, I'll write! So far everything's the same. Tomoyo, Eriol and I are still good friends! Oh yum, I smell mother's cooking.'
- (!#$&) - - - (&$#!) –
I stared at what I just read. She sure had been writing less. I started to wonder if anything had been troubling her. Any family problems?
"What are you thinking, Faith!" I smacked my forehead, "She sounds perfectly fine..."
I flipped the page and saw she had written more.
"June 5th? A year had passed? Already?" I had a puzzled face on.
- (!#$&) - - - (&$#!) –
'June 5th. Oh wow, just bout a few entries ago, it was June 5th! How funny. Well it was Eriol's birthday again. You know what that means…'
A boy with navy hair and glasses reached out to me with arms opened. "Sakura! You made it!"
As I hugged him I answered, "Of course, Eriol! I wouldn't miss one of my best friend's birthday parties."
'After Eriol greeted me, Tomoyo did too! And guess who was there? Li Syaoran. If I'm not mistaken, the last time I saw him was… Yes, was at the carnival last summer. I decided to go over to my long time friend.'
"Syaoran!"
"Sakura!" as he faced me, I could see a spark in his eyes, "I can see you've gotten much prettier. How've you been?"
"You don't look bad yourself. I've been well. How about you?"
Syaoran handed me a drink before he started to speak again, "I've been well too."
'He smiled at me. Like he always does around me. It was actually quite adorable. Then I remembered about his girlfriend.'
I took a sip of my drink and asked him about his girlfriend.
"So, how are you and… Meiling doing?"
'At first I thought it was a bad idea when I said those words. Why did I think this? He gave me a small, yet a sad smile.'
"Oh…" he said and then paused for a couple of seconds, "We broke up," he finally said.
"Syaoran, I'm sorry… I didn't know."
"It's alright, Sakura. Not your fault. It's been about a few months now. So I'm perfectly fine."
"If you don't mind me asking, what happened? You seemed to really like her."
He smiled at himself. "I know, I thought so too. But surprisingly, she was the one who ended it," as if he read my mind he told me why she did, "She looked at me right in the eye and said 'One day you'll know and understand why I did this.' She then said her goodbyes and left. Just like that."
'I began to feel bad for him. He truly was heartbroken.'
"I'm sure she knew what she was doing," I said quietly.
"I know," he just said, "I know."
'Soon afterwards, it was time for some birthday cake. While we were eating, Syaoran and I did some more catching up. He joked around when he found out I hadn't gone out with anyone after Luke.'
"Why not? I mean look at you! Wait, maybe you scared them off when they looked at you," he said looking away from me.
"Syaoran!" I said as I slapped him lightly against the arm.
"Just kidding."
'It was a great party. After Syaoran had to go, Eriol and Tomoyo couldn't help but giggle a little. I didn't know why and when I asked them they wouldn't tell me… I wonder if they're planning anything at all.'
- (!#$&) - - - (&$#!) –
After I finished that entry, I couldn't help but to think about what Syaoran had to go through those months.
'Must have been hard…' I thought.
I decided to go on my laptop, chat with a few people and check on my emails.
Faith; has signed on. You have 1 new message in your e-mail inbox.
'Ouu! An email… I wonder from whom,' I thought. When the window appeared, I read the email…
I want that title
The one where I'd always make you smile
Always by your side
Someone you'd turn to
When you feel like you want to hide
Your sweet harmony voice haunts me
Every night, and every day
I dread our goodbyes
For the journey to tomorrow is too far away
But I know the next morning
You'll greet me with your usual, "Hey"
Which is my favourite part of each and everyday
For that's when you'd notice me
When you listen and hear me
But, the true meaning of this
Is to inform a girl, a special girl
That I've fallen
So let her be heaven sent
For she's the one I desire
The one who'll grab my hand
"Oh wow…" I whispered to myself, flattered.
I checked who had sent me the email. But I got nothing. It was anonyms. I couldn't figure out who it was.

I clicked onto the link and my Windows Media Players opens and it started to load. I heard the drums and the electric guitars starting to play. Then I heard Joshua's voice.
I just gotta make a good impression…
Hey, girl how are you doing?
I wonder if you even know
That I'm still waiting,
To hold you in my arms…
Hey, girl how has it been?
I wonder if you even think of me
Cause I can't seem to see
What those eyes seem to hold…
I just gotta make a good impression
When I see you, that girl walking
A smile just crawls upon my face
Sometimes I'm breathless and even hesitate
Cause to me
You're more then I could ever ask for
How are you doing when I'm not around?
I hope things are alright
You deserve the best in life
How do you survive through the day?
I feel so weak
Especially when I'm in this way
Falling a bit more and more for you
I just gotta make a good impression
When I see you, that girl walking
A smile just crawls upon my face
Sometimes I'm breathless and even hesitate
Cause to me
You're more then I could ever ask for
I wanna know if you ever miss me
I wanna know if you ever think of me
I wanna know if you ever worry
I wanna know if you'd like to be with me
Would you like to be with me?
I just gotta make a good impression
When I see you, that girl walking
A smile just crawls upon my face
Sometimes I'm breathless and even hesitate
Cause to me
You're more then I could ever ask for
I know you're the one I need
The one I gotta keep
And when those eyes stare into mine
I honestly can't help myself, help myself…
I just gotta make a good impression
A smile just crawls upon my face
Sometimes I'm breathless and even hesitate
Cause to me
You're more then I could ever ask for…
So tell me soon
If it could ever be true
Cause I don't think I can wait anymore
