Chap - Love to Treasure

/ Hospital /

It was a somber moment for Syaoran and the rest. Syaoran, his family and Sakura's family have been waiting outside the ICU for hours now. All were staring at the closed door expectantly with hope and yet with a mixture of dreaded fear. Of all the people present there, Syaoran was the most distraught. He had been pacing back and forth non-stop until his sisters complained that he was making them dizzy. Even when he was sitting, he kept fidgeting nervously.

"Arggghhhhh!" Syaoran shouted in frustration as he punched the wall beside him. Everyone turned to stare at him. They were rather frightened by his behaviour.

"Syaoran," Yelan warned sternly. Syaoran turned to his mother. Yelan saw the anxiety and intense regret in Syaoran's eyes.

Gentling her tone, she said, "I know what you are going through and I understand that you are worried about her. We all too feel the same way. However, we have to stay strong, not just for our sake but for Sakura's sake as well."

Syaoran looked down at his hands. "I'm sorry, mother. It's just that I feel so helpless. Sakura had sacrificed her life to save me. I should have been the one in there instead of her," he said.

"Syaoran...," Yelan started, trying to find the right words to soothe her son's anguish.

"I have failed. I have failed, mother. I have promised myself that I would protect her even at the expense of my life but it was she who saved me," Syaoran continued as hot tears spilled down his cheeks.

Fujitaka walked over to the distraught boy. "You did all you could to help her. If not for you, Yoru would still not be defeated. Now, don't lose hope. We just have to pray and hope that she's going to be alive," Fujitaka comforted Syaoran.

Just then, the door to the ICU opened and they all rushed towards the doctor that they almost knocked him down "How is she?" Syaoran asked impatiently, his heart was beating a mile per second. The doctor looked at the hopeful faces in front of him. He shook his head sadly and answered,

"I'm sorry."

(AN to readers: Don't kill me! Please.)

Hearing those two words from the doctor the group broke down. Tomoyo and Syaoran's sister huddled close to one another as they sobbed uncontrollably. Fujitaka and Touya stared at the doctor as though not believing what the doctor had said. Yelan hugged the pale Syaoran as tears formed in his eyes.

"No..." Syaoran whispered. "She can't die. He's just joking," he said softly, trying so hard to deny what he had just heard.

"I'm not joking. When you brought her here, she was already beyond reach. She's now in a coma and the chances of her waking up are almost nil. Maybe in a few weeks, she will just slip away. I'm really sorry. I did the best I could. Maybe you just pray hard and hope for a miracle," the doctor explained.

"You're incompetent!" Syaoran burst out angrily. "How could you let her die?"

"Syaoran, that's enough. There's no use getting worked up now," Yelan reprimanded Syaoran. Turning to the doctor, she apologised, "I'm sorry too. Thank you for trying to save Sakura."

The doctor nodded at the apology. He looked at Syaoran with understanding and said,

"You can go in and see her if you want. Only one person can go in at a time." Syaoran looked at the rest and they nodded their approval.

Syaoran immediately went in. Lying in the center of the room was Sakura. He walked towards her and said,

"Why did you save me, Sakura? Why? After all the hurt and unhappiness that I have caused you, you still save me. I don't deserve it."

He held her limp hands in his tightly as though trying to infuse his strength to her. Her hands felt cold.

"Don't leave me, Sakura. I love you. You meant the whole world to me. Please be alive," Syaoran pleaded to the unconscious Sakura.

But all was dark for Sakura…
