" Where am I?" this was the first thought that ran through Sakura's mind as
soon as she opened her eyes.
"Am I dreaming?" Sakura walked around in this foreign place
" This is not my room....."
Sakura is in a room, and yet it seems not. It was too large to be used as a room, but it has every thing that a bedroom should possess.
The room was simply furnished, and it has an ancient design. This room seems to belong to a male
"It seems familiar...." Sakura thought as she looked around.
" Oh, it's Clow Reed's room!!" Sakura exclaimed loudly when she realized where she is.
She began to explore the whole room in curiosity, when she heard a cough in the far corner of the room, hidden by the curtain.
"Who's there?" Sakura asked timidly.
Determine to defend herself and to protect Clow's bedroom from being ransacked by this thief (she assumed), she picked up a wine glass placed on a table nearby. Silently asking for Clow's forgiveness if she had indeed broken his thing, she advanced upon the still figure.
Sakura's heart was racing upon reaching the spot. She took a deep breath before she lifted the curtain and was ready to swing the wine bottle.
Fortunately, she peeked at that person before she swings. As a result, she stopped her action in mid air and she nearly dropped the bottle on him in shock.
Siting there was Clow Reed himself. However, he was not his usual self. Usually, he would look confident, handsome looking and smiled throughout the whole day, even in his sleep(how Sakura knew that he smiles even in his sleep, I do not know).
But now, look at him, his hair was disheveled and his eyes dull lack of the usual mischief in his eyes. His face looked pale under the moonlight. If people don't looked carefully, one would have mistaken him as a dead person, for he indeed looked dead and lying there not moving. Not even an inch.
Clow had already been half sitting and half lying there for a very long time before Sakura came. Out of a sudden, he grabbed at the wine bottle in sakura's hand and gulped down the liquor, not even saying a thank you to Sakura, who has been standing there, gaping at Clow, astonished at the change in Clow.
"Clow San?" Sakura croaked, when she finally find the voice to speak.
Ignoring her presence, Clow just continue to gulp down the wine.
Realising that there are numerous wine bottles lying at Clow's side, most of them being those well known for being strong, Sakura kneeled and grabbed at the bottle in Clow's hand.
" Please drink no more, Clow Sama. Drinking is bad for your health." Sakura said sincerely.
Not even bother to heed her advice, clow just grabbed another half-filled bottle and continued drinking.
" Why did you care?" he asked hoarsely, his voice utterly different from his usual deep tone and is devoid of any feeling.
Sakura shivered upon his cold tone, but she gathered her courage and replied simply, "Because you are Clow Reed." She smiled.
Her smiling expression soon turned into a look of terror, when Clow upon hearing her reply, flew into a rage and began to destroy everything in view.
" Why? Why is that everyone cares for me just because I'm clow reed?? Why is that none cares for me when I'm still not famous for my superior magic power?? Only when I'm famous then hypocrites came to offer me their help, which were in disguised asking for help!!! Just because the blood of two powerful magic-inclined families runs in my veins, I have to lead a different life from the others!! I just want to lead a normal life and have a family of my own!!! Why is that I can't have this simple wish of mine to be fulfilled while people's greed are being fulfilled? You tell me why, Sakura, tell me!!" Clow cried, his blood shot eyes fixed on Sakura trembling form.
Once again gathering her courage, Sakura walked up to Clow and hugged him.
" I care for you Clow san," She looked up into his soulful eyes, " because you taught me many things and I respect you a lot."
Clow Reed's eyes widened at her statement.
" I knew nothing of your family history, I just knew that you are you and no one else, and that you have blessed me with lots of gifts." Tears shimmered in Sakura's eyes.
" Clow san, you are the one and only in this world and no one can replaced you, not when the memories of you lives in the heart of people you encountered. That includes Kero chan, Yue, and me."
