Chapter II- A Surprise (Sakura's POV)
"Syaoran!" I said. I was very staggered that Syaoran himself has come to the party.
"Hi, Sakura." Syaoran said. "I missed you a lot- and the other's too."
I was purely shocked. For the past four years that I haven't seen him, I've been talking face-to-face with my ex-boyfriend. My cheeks were almost red, and I couldn't speak for myself, did that mean I still miss him too?
"Don't you have a date, Sakura?" Syaoran said as I saw his cheeks redden. He was tall, almost the height of Touya when he was just in High School, young, mature and obviously knowledgeable.
"Don't you have a date, Sakura?" I heard him ask again while my daydreams popped out of nowhere. "No, not yet," I answered. I didn't feel mortified; I think he didn't have a date in this party either. So (to make sure) I asked him his question; which he didn't answer. I'm very sure he doesn't want to talk about it so I marked myself to check what I'm going to say next.
"Well, in that case," I replied. "Maybe if you really have one, I could leave in here. She might have been waiting for you." I said, hoping to get an answer.
"Oh, don't go yet!" Syaoran grabbed my arm as I tried to break away my self since my cheeks were red as a ribbon and I'm still bowled over to say anything. "I. I don't have one at all, Sakura." He timidly said.
"We could talk for a while in here Sakura." He said as he sat down the edge of the boardwalk. I was standing behind him as he sat down and takes a look at the view.
"Remember when we were classmates in Grade School, it was so fun, especially when you collected all of the magical cards as a Card Captor." He started. I still remember all of those days; those days with Syaoran. I was very immersed with what he said so I sat down with him.
"Yes, I think so." I said. "My memories are still fresh with those days." I said, feeling the unease inside me. My heart was pounding so fast that I could hardly breathe.
"About those days," Syaoran said. "I still remembered all of them, but my life has changed ever since I transferred to a different school with Mei Ling."
"I understand," I whispered to myself, feeling all the anxiety of what's going to happen next.
Still at the lake (Syaoran's POV)
I heard her whisper, which made my eyes full with tears that I scrubbed out. I confessed to myself that I was still totally in love with the girl right in front of me.
"Are you sad?" Sakura asked. I could still remember that, that were the last words Sakura said to me the last time we met. From the past four years.
"Yes." I answered. My life was miserable in that school. I was totally left out of everybody because of how different I am from them. Mei Ling still became popular and got a series of boyfriends, and me? Not one girl. I didn't just like them, that's all.
"Well, I really missed you two. Mei Ling and you," Sakura said, as she smelled the fragrance of the pink blossom just beside the grass.
"With my feelings for you," I gawkily said. "My feeling has not changed yet, but I know you will. I just wanted to make sure that after the fight for the last four years." I took a second to take my breath.
"Could we be friends again?" I finally said. She looked at me for a while. The last fight was very stubborn and juvenile. We were like children that time and we didn't know yet the meaning of love. It took a moment when Sakura finally said the words that gave me full of hope and enthrallment:
"Yes."
"Syaoran!" I said. I was very staggered that Syaoran himself has come to the party.
