.:: Promises- Chapter 3 ::.
Syaoran just stood there in shock. His mind was going crazy. He couldn't believe she didn't recognize him. He just stared blankly at Sakura.
"Are you okay?" Sakura asked, a little nervous about the way this strange boy was looking at her. Syaoran snapped back to reality.
"Sakura? You don't remember me?"
"Um...no, I don't remember you, and how do you know my name?" Sakura asked, becoming scared.
"Come on, Sakura!! You don't remember? It's me, Syaoran! Syaroan Li. Come on, Sakura. You have to remember me!" Sakura became frightened.
"I don't know who you are. I don't know you. Leave me alone!" Sakura slammed the door shut and ran to her room. Syaoran stood there, still in so much shock, he couldn't move. Finally, he was able to move and he went back to his apartment.
That night, Syaoran stayed up all night, wondering why Sakura didn't remember him. Sakura also had trouble sleeping. She didn't recognize the boy and she didn't really recognize the name either, but she kept on having this feeling that she's met him before. Almost like in a past
life or something like that, but she pushed that thought to the back of her mind. She thought it was the most ridiculous thing she could ever come up with. She hoped that the strange boy wouldn't bother her anymore. But that didn't happen.
The next day, Sakura went to the park. It was such a warm day that she decided to buy ice cream. She went to the park and took a seat on the bench. She began to rummage through her bag for her money when Kero flew out of the bag.
"Kero!!!" she said, putting her hand across her heart, breathing a little heavily. "You scared me!!! Don't do that again."
"Okay, okay. Sorry!! Sheesh!" Kero said, sitting next to her on the bench.
"Well, I'm going to go buy ice cream. Will you stay here with my stuff?" Sakura asked.
"No problem." Kero flew onto Sakura's bag, taking a seat on it. He laid back on the bag, relaxing. He closed his eyes while the sunlight warmed his body.
"Thanks, Kero." Right when Sakura turned around to go to the ice cream stand, Syaoran stood in front of her. She gasped when she saw him. She let out a sigh when she saw who it was. "Excuse me. You're in my way."
"Look, Sakura. We need to talk."
"We don't need to talk about anything. I don't know you. And...I don't know how the heck you know my name, but I don't want to talk to you." She walked past him and headed for the stand. Syaoran turned around and grabbed her by the wrist. "Hey!!" Sakura said when he grabbed her. Kero opened
his eyes and saw a teenage guy with chestnut hair holding back Sakura. 'Who is that guy?' Kero thought. "Let go of me!" Sakura shouted. Kero got up, flew over to Sakura and bit Syaoran's hand. Sakura pulled her arm away and held her wrist. Syaoran held his hand, looking at it. He didn't care if it hurt and didn't care that Kero was there. He looked at Sakura.
"Please, Sakura. I have to talk to you!!" Syaoran said, pleading. He got on his knees and begged her. "Please, Sakura!! I need to talk to you!!" When Kero saw the guy's face, he recognized him right away. 'Oh no!! He's back!!' Sakura stepped back.
"No!! Get away from me!! Leave me alone. I don't even know you!!" She walked away, not even bothering to get an ice cream.
"Wait, Sakura!!" He got up and tripped on a tree branch, causing him to fall. Sakura ignored him and walked away. Soon, Syaoran could no longer see her. He got up and sat on the bench Sakura was sitting on. He just sat there, staring at the auroral sky.
"Hey, kid!" Syaoran turned around. It was Kero.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't the little stuffed animal!!" Syaoran said.
"Hey, watch it, kid!!" Kero said.
"What do you want?"
"Well, kid. I saw what happened between you and Sakura today."
"Yeah, and?"
"I know why she doesn't remember you." Syaoran instantly became interested in what he had to say.
"So, why doesn't she remember me?"
"She doesn't remember you because I put a spell on her, which erased all the memories she had of you."
"What? Why the hell did you do that?" Syaoran said, getting mad.
"Wait, kid. Hear me out. When I tell you what happened, you'll understand why I did what I did."
"Okay, fine. Start explaining."
"Well..."
****One year ago****
Sakura sat by her bedroom window, staring at the star that Syaoran had dedicated to her. Tears of sorrow fell from her eyes. Kero entered the room. He saw Sakura crying.
"Sakura. You have to stop thinking about that Chinese gaki. It's ruining your life." Kero said in a firm tone.
"But Kero!!! I can't stop thinking about him. I love him so much and he's not here with me anymore. I can't live without him. And don't call him a gaki."
"Look, Sakura. Your life is falling apart because of Syaoran. You've been like this ever since he left. Why don't you just go on with you life? I'm not telling you to forget him, I'm just telling you to go on with your life. How can you live life to the fullest when you're depressed every
single day?"
"Kero. You don't understand. I love him so much. I just can't stop thinking about him. He's always on my mind. Every little thing reminds me of him. I can't help it." More tears fell from Sakura's eyes. "I wish I could go to Hong Kong. That way, I'd be with him again."
"But Sakura. Where are you going to get the money to fly there? And your dad and brother would worry about you."
"Fine. Then I'll just end it here." She eyed a pair of scissors. "That way, no one will have to tell me to stop thinking about him. He'll be on my mind forever." She reached for the scissors. Kero flew over to the scissors and put them in the drawer.
"No, Sakura!!! Killing yourself is not the answer!!"
"Then what is!?!?!" Sakura asked, becoming hysterical. Tears fell from her eyes non-stop.
"I know." Kero flew over to Sakura and led her to the bed. "Lie on your bed." Sakura didn't even bother arguing back with Kero. She was tired. She got up and fell back on her bed. "Now, close your eyes." She did as he said. 'I'm sorry, Sakura. I really don't want to do this to you, but it's the only way. I hate seeing you like this. But this is the only way.' Then, he placed a spell upon her...a spell that made her forget all about Syaoran. 'I'm sorry, Sakura. I'm sorry.'
****End Flashback****
Syaoran was in shock. He didn't know that their separation would be that hard on Sakura. He couldn't believe that she actually wanted to kill herself.
"Oh my god. I didn't know that. I can't believe she'd want to do something like that."
"Yep. She said that. I couldn't stand it anymore. I had to erase all her memory of you. If I didn't, well then...who knows what she would be like now...or where she'd be now." Syaoran stared at the ground, still in complete shock. This was even more shocking than when Sakura didn't recognize him.
"Kero... is there a reversing spell?"
"Why would you want a reversing spell? So you can break her heart by leaving Tomoeda again?" Kero asked sarcastically.
"No, Kero. You don't understand. I came back to Tomoeda to keep my promise to Sakura. And now that I'm here, I'm going to stay here forever, with Sakura. But now that she doesn't remember me, well...you know."
"Yeah, she doesn't wanna be around you."
"Yeah. That."
"Well, kid. I'm sorry to say this, but there is no reversing spell. I put on this spell, thinking that you would never come back for her, so I figured that a reversing spell wasn't needed. But I guess I was wrong."
"Very." Syaoran said, glaring at Kero.
"But there might be a way to get her back."
