Save A Heart
CHAPTER 4
- - sakura - -
I looked up to see Syaoran extremely close to me. Like very close!....I felt my blood rising to my face¡¦.and Syaoran inched closer to my face and¡¦¡¦¡¦
¡°GOT YA!¡± he laughed!
OH MY GOSH! I thought that he was going to...going to...WHAT AM I THINKING? I HARDLY KNOW THE GUY!
I shook my head (to get rid of any...weird thoughts...) and said, ¡°I give up!¡±
He got up and stuck out a hand for me, which I took gratefully. It wasn¡¯t very comfortable, lying there soaking in cold water.
¡°Better dry up before we catch a cold,¡± he smiled.
We went inside and dried off, and returned to the kitchen. I still had that tea to make...
We sat at the table, across from each other, both of us lost in our own thoughts. My eyes fell of Syaoran, who was currently blowing onto the tea to cool it before he drank. you know what I mean right? ^_^
He was so nice to me. And in a way, he was close to me. He understood me...which I thought was very important.
¡°Syaoran?¡± I said, slightly blushing.
¡°Yes?¡±
¡°Thanks...¡±
¡°For what?¡±
¡°For everything...for taking care of me...and helping me....¡±
¡°Anytime Sakura. I¡¯ll always be here for you...you know...¡±
He was so generous. It made me so assured...to know that I would have someone to turn to.
- - syaoran - -
I looked at her...The girl who I had yearned to get closer to...
And what I said was true. I would ALWAYS be there for her...but I don¡¯t think she understood the depth of these words...
I smiled at her and said, ¡°You should ALWAYS make tea now Sakura! This is really good!¡±
¡°Ooh~ with the chores again...¡± she groaned playfully.
I looked at her again, into her perpetual emerald eyes. They sparkled when she smiled, or laughed – even if she was wearing her glasses. Then her eyes would enchant me, just like when we were on the balcony...
¡°You should smile more often, Sakura. It suits you greatly.¡±
She hesitated for a minute, and then smiled, ¡°I will Syaoran, just for you!¡±

The next day was Monday, so Sakura went to school (uni) and worked non-stop because she couldn¡¯t do her work on the weekend (because she got sick). Then she found out that they were going overseas to England to study literature of other countries.
¡°$400?!?!?!?!?!¡± Sakura cried when her sensei told her, ¡°I CAN¡¯T AFFORD THAT!¡±
¡°Well, Kinomoto-san, you¡¯re going to have to find a way to get the money because this is a MANDATORY trip. But I assure you, it will be something to look forward to.¡±
Sakura sighed. How was she going to get $400 in two months? Well, she would have to work but how was she going to juggle uni with working for her rent AND for an excursion? Not to mention her food and other things...
Sakura sighed again as she dragged her feet out of the campus. She really wanted to go but...
¡°I can do it! I¡¯ll just find another job! Everything will be fine. I¡¯ll just have to organise myself a bit more! Yes, that should be OK...¡± Sakura said, trying to encourage herself.
Sakura strolled around the city once again, with a newspaper in her hand.
Hours later, she flopped onto a bench, exhausted. She had gone to ask about numerous jobs but every one of them had said that she was too young, not experienced enough or the time just wasn¡¯t right for her.
Sakura slightly shivered in the cold weather. The sun was starting to set (early because it¡¯s winter) and decided that she should go home soon.
She unrolled a battered newspaper and sighed as she looked at the only job circled that hadn¡¯t been crossed out. o.O Did that make sense?
E.H Lawyers Co.
Job available for anyone who has experience in databases
-Assistant database manager
¡°Database management...that wouldn¡¯t be too demanding because I already to that stuff at the library...¡± Sakura shrugged and headed towards the address of the company.
She tightened her scarf and sunk her head into her coat for more warmth. She plodded along until she finally reached ¡°E.H Lawyers Co.¡±
She quietly entered the building and headed for the front desk.
¡°Hi, how may I help you?¡± the lady welcomed Sakura.
¡°Umm...I¡¯m here about the job...¡±
¡°Ah yes! Here are some details about the job,¡± she said as she handed Sakura a sheet of paper, ¡°and we¡¯ll have to interview you...¡±
¡°Oh OK...so when would that be?¡±
¡°Hm....How about 4.30pm tomorrow? Is that OK?¡±
Sakura thought for a while and replied, ¡°Hai! I¡¯ll be here.¡±
¡°OK...could I please have your name?¡±
¡°Kinomoto Sakura.¡±
¡°Arigato...So we¡¯ll be seeing you tomorrow Kinomoto-san!¡±
¡°Hai. Sayonara.¡± and Sakura stepped back into the bitter weather.
Sakura stuffed the piece of paper into her bag and hurried home. She really wanted get home, have a hot shower and go to sleep. She hadn¡¯t noticed how tired she was, running around the city like that.
Sakura arrived at the flat and headed upstairs. She got her keys out and opened the door YES she remembered her keys this time! ^_^.
¡°Hi Sakura!¡± Syaoran greeted, ¡°How was your day?¡±
¡°Hi Syao-kun. It¡¯s been quite a busy day for me actually...how was yours?¡±
¡®I shouldn¡¯t tell Syaoran about my new job...it would only worry him...¡¯ she thought.
¡°I just studied for an exam coming up. Loads of stuff to learn! My sensei is a VERY strict teacher!¡± he sighed.
¡°Well good luck! Although I think that you won¡¯t need it. You seem very intelligent to me!¡± Sakura smiled.
Syaoran got lost in her emerald eyes again...¡®So...beautiful...¡¯ he smiled.
¡°Syaoran?¡± Sakura questioned.
He snapped back to life.
¡°Huh? Oh...gomen...Ah Sakura have you eaten dinner yet?¡±
¡°Ummmm....Iie...¡±
¡°That¡¯s no good! Lucky for you I cooked AGAIN and there¡¯s some food for you in the kitchen.¡±
¡°Aw, arigato gozaimasu Syaoran!¡±
¡°No problem!¡± Anything for you Sakura...¡°But remember to do the dishes!¡± He called as she went into the kitchen.
Sakura sighed...but smiled. Arigato gozaimasu Syaoran. You don¡¯t know how much this means to me...
Well that¡¯s it for Chapter 4! I know I know! It¡¯s kinda boring...but please don¡¯t give up on me! I¡¯m still getting to the climax! Arigato gozaimasu! And please please please review! And suggestions please! Any improvements I should make? Tell me! I¡¯m open to all kinds of reviews! Thank you!
Preview from next CH....
I looked into Sakura¡¯s room, just to make sure that she was alright. She hadn¡¯t looked too well when she came home today....
¡°Sakura?¡± I peeped.
Then I rushed to her. She was crying. And shaking so violently. What was wrong? What had happened?
Heeheeheehee!
Thanks again for reading my fic!
