Chapter 2
A young woman sat on the edge of her bed, watching the TV that was set on a large stand. She pressed the channel arrows, flipping through the channels. After flipping through the 500 digital cable channels and finding nothing that really interested her, she turned it off. It's truly a wonder that a young girl cannot find a desirable channel out of 500. She flopped back on her bed with her eyes closed. Then she stood up and walked to her nightstand. She picked up a notepad and pencil. She went towards the glass door that led to the balcony and opened it. Outside was the most breathtaking sight. Tall glassy buildings stood up tall and full of pride. All the way down, a rush of multicolored groups rushed past the streets. She let a small smile touch her lips. She sat down and began writing. Suddenly she couldn't see the large suite that was specially reserved for her. She couldn't see the tall glassy skyscrapers. All she could see was the great sky full of clouds and her dreams.

Tomoyo Daidoji strolled towards a double door. Her great lavender hair was pulled back from her face in a clip. Her purple eyes were large with excitement. She knocked on the great double doors. No answer. Typical of Sakura to not hear! Tomoyo thought. She took out a card and sidestepped to be in front of the keypad. She slid the card into the thin slit next to the keypad. The red flashed for a while then turned green. Tomoyo quickly pushed open the doors before the alarm would go off. Really high security. Tomoyo looked around the living room of the large suite. She walked through a curtained entrance to the bedroom. No Sakura. Her eyes rolled towards the balcony. A small brown head could be seen. Tomoyo smiled and walked to the balcony. She walked up to her best friend.
"Sakura!" She called softly. Sakura looked up with surprised eyes that changed to happiness.
"Tomoyo!" She cried, "So what's up?"
"Remember that contest?" Tomoyo asked. Sakura's nose wrinkled with dissatisfaction.
"Yea?" She said, "Who's the winner?"
"Meiling Li of Hong Kong!" Tomoyo burst.
"That rich and almighty family?!" Sakura asked, her voice full of shock. Tomoyo raised an eyebrow and nodded.
"Yea, what's wrong with that?" Tomoyo asked.
"Well … are you sure that they didn't buy their way in?" Sakura asked with hesitation.
Tomoyo's eyes widened, "Sakura don't say that! Of course they didn't buy their way in. Well at least Carrie didn't say anything about it."
As if knowing the two girls were speaking about her, Carried walked in.
Carrie Togi was Sakura's manager. She was a carefree woman with luxurious brown hair, and the beautiful hazel eyes. Carrie was the longest lasting manager of the famous Sakura. All the others Sakura had fired…
"Hey Carrie!" Sakura greeted.
"I suppose you heard about the news," Carrie said.
"Yea…" Sakura said suddenly feeling negative.
"Hey on the good side, this…," Carrie left off as she pulled out a paper," Meiling Li will only be with you for two weeks."
"Well you know Sakura doesn't like people all over her. All the attention makes her nervous," Tomoyo said and looked at Sakura, "Unless she's singing on the stage."
"Yea I know. Anyway they'll be here, let's see, today is Saturday so they'll be here on Monday. You can handle it Sakura!" Carrie said and left. Tomoyo gave Sakura a sympathetic look and left the room also.
"God, let's hope these aren't ecstatic fans," Sakura mumbled. She looked down at her notebook. Phrases and words were scrambled everywhere on the page. No air, no color, no sounds, no love…. She closed the notepad and stood up. Well she was out of ideas for songs. She looked at her silver watch, 11: 30. Lunch, she thought and smiled.
She left her room and decided to go to the hotel restaurant instead of calling room service. She was really curious. She hadn't gone out a lot considering the fact she was a famous person. Maybe I should get a disguise or something, she thought, But then it's just a quick order. She took the elevator and walked to the restaurant. She wanted something plain, nothing fancy, like a hamburger and fries. The restaurant is supposed to have everything…ooo…. buffet! Sakura thought as her eyes saw the buffet section.
"Excuse me miss, may I help you?" A waitress asked. As Sakura looked at her the waitress started hyperventilating and looked like she was about to just drop and faint. Sakura looked at her with an unsure look.
"I just want a table for myself¾ "
"It's Sakura! Sakura!" Someone screamed. Sakura looked toward the speaker and saw the whole restaurant jump up.
"Um…I guess room service will do!" Sakura said then ran for it. She ran into the lobby then into the elevator. Luckily, it was empty.
"Oh my god!" Sakura huffed, "Yeah, room service."

Carrie Togi was swimming in the hotel pool. She took smooth strokes, swiftly moving across the pool. Swimming always freed her mind from stress, even though there wasn't much stress in her life, for now. Sakura had stress though. She had her education and a hard career.
Carrie pulled herself out of the pool, walked up to a beach chair and pulled her robe around herself. The winners will come two days later to have some time with Sakura. Boy is Sakura gonna be stressed. She hated having so much attention. It made her nervous. Let's hope these fans aren't fanatics.
A/N: Hi, I'm sorry this chapter is kind of short, I think. Anyway, someone asked what kind of music Sakura sang. I'm not quite sure. I'll just let you pick. So please tell me what Sakura's music genre should be. Thank you! Review please!
