Prologue Two: Sakura's Story
Sakura continued to stare at her phone. She had to do it. It had to be done. If she didn't than he would, and then she'd be hurt... again. She finally got up the courage and picked up the receiver. She softly pressed the dials on her phone and listened to the deafening ring of the call. With every passing ring, she felt the urge to hang up.
But then the ringing stopped. Someone had answered. "Hello? Syaoran-kun?" Sakura quickly asked, hoping it was someone else.
But it wasn't. "S-Sakura..."
A knot formed in Sakura's throat. A sudden rush of guilt and pain entered her heart. I have to do it... she told herself. But she suddenly found herself crying. Why? She was the one who was ending the relationship, that barely even started. Images of their past adventures together clouded Sakura's mind... the first time they met, their first moment alone, their first kiss, the first time Syaoran confessed his love for her, and the first time they truly hugged after she confessed...
But she had to do it. Relationships like these never lasted. Someone's bound to get hurt. She just wished that she wasn't the one to hurt.
"I-I can't do this anymore, Li-san." she continued, changing his name. It hurt her so much to do this to him. But she kept telling herself that it was for the best.
"Fine." Syaoran said from the other line. "I guess this is 'goodbye' then."
The pain grew. "Syaoran..." Sakura said softly.
"No!" Syaoran shouted suddenly. In a more formal voice he said, "This is what you want... Goodbye Kinomoto-san." Syaoran quickly hung up. Sakura sobbed more. She deserved it. How could she do this to him?
She put the receiver down and slowly climbed into bed. Tears streamed from her emerald eyes, but she didn't care. She just pulled the covers over her head.
The sun began to set, and the darkness was quickly covering her room. She paid it no mind. Voices from her father and brother echoed from below the stairs. She ignored them. She just wanted to be alone... and after what she just did, she deserved to be alone.
