[Chapter 7: Found Yet Unnoticed]
No… It can't be my hair… It's a wig… She yanked furiously, madly at her own hair on her head. She had inflicted pain to herself but it stayed put. It's an illusion. I'm dreaming. She pinched herself. But, she didn't find herself waking up again to have everything back to normal. This is wrong… So wrong… Can't be happening… Could I be dead? She stared back at herself in the mirror. She wasn't a brunette anymore. But a blonde; her hair was messed, tangled like she was lost in a swamp for weeks. That wasn't all. Blue contracts hid her bright, green eyes. Her schools clothes were worn and filthy. Exactly like a bum on the streets of New York. She couldn't even recognize herself anymore… As far as she knew it, she was gone, mentally and now physically…
The door slammed shut and she whirled in around on the bed. Just that simple action made her head twirl with dizziness. So, it took her eyes a while to focus but she knew whom it was. It was him. His light blond brows furrowed with rage as he walked towards her on the smooth, wooden floor.
"What the hell are you doing screaming like that?" He gripped her hands with his own. The pressure was a piercing amount of strength. She winced with pain and tried to shake him off. There was little she could do.
"S-stop it-t." Her voice wavered fluctuating. She, herself, though she sounded pathetic and weak… But his touch iced her whole to her spine. She couldn't help trying to get him to stop. He was absorbing all her warmth. Her courage. Her soul. Her mind. She knew she was inferior as he ignored her words and just tightened his strength.
"If I hear you ever do that again, you're dead. And I mean it. Dead as in chopped up into bits and thrown into a river. You hear me? And from now on, you're Anna, an orphan. No last name. Nothing. I found you in Manhattan, homeless and poor, to bring you the comforts of my cousin's mansion. Unless you obey me and behave without spilling to the others about what happened, you will be fine. So don't piss me off. Or-" The creak of the door was heard again. Sakura's raper dropped his hands into his pockets and turned away. In stepped a beautiful lady. She had long, black hair in a neat bun held by a pair of chopsticks; her hair was luminous and seemed to be glistening even in dim light of the room. Her eyes were shaped like a crescent on its curve; it looked like she was smiling all the time. She had a pale, white complexion that suited her well, with an innocent, angel's appearance. She stood tall with her lengthy, slim legs. Her back was towards the door and she looked simply graceful. Her lips curve into a sweet smile.
"So you are renowned Anna Bennett was talking about…" Her light feet swept across the floor and soon, her hand was outstretched to meet Sakura's. "Bennett has told me about you. Welcome to the Li family." Sakura obediently put out her hand in a stare. She knew this lady. It was Syaoran's mother. Only her had an unspeakable beauty. She had that expression that would stop you in your tracks and left a spinning emotion inside you. She was unforgettable. And she was here. In America. With Syaoran. He had been here along. She couldn't believe it. Syaoran is near… He really is…
She met her eyes, pleading. Do you remember me? Sakura? We met before. A lot of times. Remember? You had helped me so much… To her horror, she had just dropped her hands and twirled around to a nearby chair. Lifting a bundle, she handed it to Sakura.
"Here. Inside is a change of clothes. Put them on and get out of those rags. That's no way a girl should dress." She smiled again. "Lunch will be served in a little while downstairs. I'll introduce you to the maids and my son, Syaoran. I hope I see you down at the dining room soon. We'll talk some more when there's some food in you, okay?" She didn't wait for an answer and as quietly as she had walked in, she was gone. No! You have to remember me! Her desperate thoughts disintegrated when Bennett glared at her behind Syaoran's mother.
"Better watch it. Or you'll get it." His threatening words made her tremble as he closed her door. She sat on the bed for a few minutes, making sure he was gone. Silently, she slipped out of the bed and unraveled the bundle. She smiled a little seeing a silky, blue sweater with a pair of soft, blue pants and clean, white sneakers. At least, she was in Syaoran's home… She changed rapidly. She wanted to see him. He'll know it's me. No doubt, for sure.
She opened the door and stuck her head out. Glancing to her left and right, she made sure Bennett wasn't around. Slowly, she walked out and closed the door. The mansion was amazing. She could feel the soft, read carpet under her and the halls were lined with gold with mystical engravings. Paintings of landscapes were hung on both of the walls and equal intervals that reminded her of a museum. It seemed like there was an illuminating chandelier for every twenty steps she took. She was astounded. I never remembered Syaoran was this rich… Her eyes moved everywhere, taking everything in.
She didn't even notice there was a staircase until the hall ended. It was like those majestic, spiral staircases that princesses always walked down in the movies. The railings and steps were gold, pure and brilliant. She grabbed onto it and took a step. She walked slowly. Like she was afraid that she was going to trip and fall into a dark hole. She didn't even hear him following her in back of her. She took her fourth step and suddenly, she heard his voice.
"You must be Anna. Hi, I'm Li Syaoran."
