CHAPTER TWO- Faded past

Once they settled on the plane, Sakura and Eriol sat side by side. Silence remained between them but strangely she felt safe. Their eyes conveyed, she could feel the intensity in his eyes.as if worried. Sakura turned away, blushing secretly. Ignorance is bliss.

It was unforeseen what would unfold once they arrive.

As the plane departed the port, curiosity rose upon her. Sakura picked out a magazine and flipped it through randomly, when one page caught her attention.

"HEIR OF LI EMPIRE MEETS WITH ACCEDENT"

Sakura aghast.head spinning by the sudden unpleasant revelation. With a short of gasp, Sakura quivered just thinking about the consequences.

No it couldn't be! The thoughts of Syaoran struck her like a knife piercing through her bare heart. The truth took her completely off guard. Nothing could dampen her sorrow, her grieve was beyond words.

Sakura was already bursting with curiosity and sick with worry! Beads of perspiration were visible on her pale frightened face.

What happened to Syaoran kun? And how could Eriol keep so peaceful at such urgent time?

Sakura stared at Eriol, beneath the gentle face was an unreadable mask. As were reading her mind, Eriol's face softened. She must seem so obvious to him. At that moment, she wanted to pour all her emotions out to him, Thoughts about him holding her hand- for the briefest moment filled her mind then quickly fled away when she thought about Syaoran Li. She gazed into the distance and soon her vision dazed as she fell asleep.

"We are here." Sakura woke up by a familiar voice followed by a light nuzzle. She squinted, dazzled by the bright warm sun light. Sakura could not hold back her anxiety. She had been longing for this flawless moment. For Syaoran and her would reunite again.

Crowds of reporters surrounded the central hospital of Hong Kong.

"Is Master Syaoran Li alright?"

"What about the rumors that Mr. Li being engaged?"

"Will Syaoran Li take over the Li's empire?"

The reporters' eyes glimmered as they turned their attention to Eriol and Sakura expecting answers that would lead them to success.

Sakura and Eriol groan in a union.

At last, with the escorting of Eriol's butler, they finally managed to reach the entrance hall. Sakura was nervous as ever. She knocked on the door waiting for replies. For a long time it remained silent until a suspicious sharp breaking noise erupted form inside. Startled as she was, Sakura became increasing flustered. Following a sudden impulse, she gathered her vigor and went in before Eriol could stop her.

Pieces of sparkling glasses were lying on the floor.and there he was. The amber haired boy, roughly about her age with a pair of deep, intensive hazel eyes. From the life and boldness of those incredible eyes, Sakura could see the boy that she once fell in love with.

She could not help but smile.

"Syaoran kun," She regarded in a mild tone, "are you alright?"

Li studied the girl carefully, then frowned. "Do I know you?" He returned simply, coldly.

The once profound affection was no where in sight
