Chapter One: The Beginning of Her Ruin
Tomoyo knew her best friend was depressed; everyone did. Even those that did not know the reason behind her depression from six years earlier. It was Sakura's eyes betrayed her and the sadness she worked so hard to hide. There emerald green depths held a pain impossible to heal or ever forget. At age seventeen she mad the one mistake that would cause all her pain and ruin her life forever. The mistake would take away all her happy innocence and hurt in more ways than even imaginable. Sakura fell in love.
On March 6, 1998 Sakura began dating a boy named Keith. He was a transfer student from the U.S. and was very handsome with his curly brown hair and blue eyes. From day one it seemed he had set out to make Sakura his girlfriend. Keith treated her like a princess. He was always bringing her flowers and taking her out on romantic dates. It seemed inevitable that Sakura fell for him. The day that Sakura ran to Tomoyo's mansion telling her that she told Keith she loved him and he said it back to her, Tomoyo was not surprised and was happy for her friend. But the perfection of Sakura's relationship with Keith began diminishing after that and his personality completely changed.
Over summer vacation from school was when Keith began to change and Sakura's friends were not there to notice and save her from him. Keith became controlling. Sakura needed to have permission in order to see any of her friends and was not allowed to see or even talk to any of her male friends. If Keith even saw her talking to a guy she would be punished. His punishment was to hit Sakura. It was not the physical abuse that broke Sakura though, it was the verbal abuse. He called every thing from fat and ugly to a bitch and a whore. He constantly called her worthless and caused her to become anorexic. Sakura took all Keith's abuse because she was blinded by love. She believed he only did the things to her because he loved her and only wanted her to be a better person for him.
Unfortunately, Sakura's friends did not realize what was happening to Sakura until school started. They summed up hardly seeing Sakura over the summer to being busy with a new relationship. It was Tomoyo who first started noticing all the changes in Sakura. At first she only noticed the physical changes, but it didn't long after to see the mental changes and realize what was happening.
Sakura used to take pride in her appearance. She always wore beautiful clothes, half of which Tomoyo made for her and she always wore a little amount of makeup, just enough to enhance her beauty. Instead of her usual style, Sakura began wearing long sleeves to hide the bruises on her arms and baggy clothes. Her once long and pretty hair was kept up in a plain ponytail all the time. It was Sakura's anorexic that took the longest to notice. Since Sakura only wore baggy clothes no one could see how sickly thin she was getting. Tomoyo only noticed it in gym class one day when she could see all of Sakura's ribs sticking out and then realized she never saw Sakura eat anything. Tomoyo tried to confront Sakura about it, but she claimed it was nothing and she was fine.
The mental changes in Sakura were what scared Tomoyo the most. If someone near Sakura made a sudden movement she would cringe and jump away in fear. Sakura's was forceful personality was broken and she became very submissive. She no longer laughed or even smiled. It broke Tomoyo's heart to see her best friend no longer the happy girl she once was and decided it was time to get Sakura out of that relationship.
Tomoyo and all of her friends that wanted to break up Sakura and Keith up truly had no idea just how dangerous Keith really was. They did not know that crossing his path would inevitably lead to heartbreak and murder. Keith was worse than they could possibly imagine.
