"Li! Found one!" Sakura yelled.
"Me too."
"Wow! I didn't know that Find the Treasure is still fun, even though we're now 13!"
"Uh-huh."
Sakura looked at him. He seems quieter than usual…
"Li?" she called.
"What?"
"Are you okay?"
"Huh? Yeah I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?"
"Dunno. You seem quieter."
"I do?" Li asked.
"Yup."
"Well, I'm okay, Sakura."
"Good then."
Silence…
"Hey," Sakura said.
"What?" Li replied.
"I was wondering…"
"What were you wondering?"
"If we…"
"If we what?"
"Oh, can you please don't interrupt me when I'm talking??" Sakura asked angrily.
"Fine I won't."
"Good."
"So you were saying…"
"I… Uh... Never mind," she blushed.
"Oh, okay then."
Silence…
"Li?" Sakura called.
"What???" he replied.
"I… Uh… Nothing," she felt her face blushing.
"Do you realize this is exactly what we were talking about five minutes ago?"
"Yeah."
"You're weird, Sakura."
"I know I am."
"Right."
Then they fell silent again…
Should I? Li asked himself. Should I tell her now, about my feeling about her? Am I ready yet? And if I tell her now, would she be mad at me? I mean, I annoy her all the time!
Sakura was thinking the exact same thing about Li.
"Sakura," Li said.
"Li," Sakura called at the same time.
"You go first," she quickly said.
"Okay," he stopped. "Sakura I…" he turned his back to Sakura. He startled when he saw nobody was there but himself.
"You guys!! Sakura's gone!!" Li shouted when he saw Eli and Madison.
"She's… WHAT??!?!?" Madison exclaimed.
"She's gone, Madison! Gone! One second she was talking to me, the other second she wasn't there anymore!" Li's face was pale.
"Li, I won't forgive you if something bad happened to her! I really won't!!"
"Neither will I," Li murmured.
"Calm down, Madison…" Eli tried to make Madison calm.
"How can I be CALM when Sakura's gone?!? How can I???" she cried.
"I know it's hard for you, Madison, but we have to be calm, so we can search for her, don't we?" he hugged her. "Now stop crying."
"I guess…" Madison sobbed. "I guess you're right."
Seeing them hugging each other made Li a little jealous. No, it wasn't because he liked Madison or something. It was because he wanted to do that with Sakura, to always be there when she needed him. But now she's gone, and it's all my fault! He thought angrily. I, Li Showron, promise myself to find her, and never let something bad happen to her ever again! Never!
AHHHHH!!! SAKURA'S GONE!!! HOW CAN THAT BE??!?!? Tell me what you think!! (My e-mail: kawaii_anime_gurl@hotmail.com)
