Chapter 8: Because


Sakura paused,she hated the silence between them but nothing would come out of her mouth.

"Because why?" Syaoran asked again.

Sakura looked deep into his eyes and she could see they were asking her 'Why?'

"Well I remember when I was 4 years old and I just started school," she started out.

"Around noon at recess a boy came and kick sand in my eyes.Then he started to hit me," she looked at him.

'That boy was...me' he thought as the memories came flooding into his mind.

"He laughed at me and torment me for the last..." she counted ",8 years"

"Was it that bad?" he mumbled.

"Well he would throw stuff at me in class,play pranks on my like spilling milk in my hair and get my in trouble like...like right now," she looked back at the ground.

"Where is he now?" he asked although he already knew.

"He's sitting right next to me right now,and I would like to know,why?" Sakura manage to said.

It was now Syaoran's turn to stare at the ground.

"Meling," he mumbled "What?" Sakura raised her eye brow.

"She was the one who made me do those stuff.But I loved doing that,until now," he replied.

She could feel tears prickled at the back of her eyes.

She put her head on his shoulder as the tears fell.

"Why are you crying?" he mumbled ",Don't cry,"

She couldn't stop crying.

"I miss my mother," she choked on the last word.

"What happened to her?" he asked.

Sakura continued crying as she choked on everyone of her words.

"She's gone and I did nothing to save her.It was rain hard outside.Our house had a celler.She left me and my father there and then ran into the rain to save the neighbors.She manage to save them.All I remember was a flash of lightning and that was all," she cried more into his shoulder.

"I didn't relize..." he mumbled.

Sakura cried into his shoulders all that night.

In the morning her eyes hurt.

His shirt was all wet "Gomen" she aploligized.

"That's ok," as he grabbed some napkins to dry his shirt.

"Sakura?" he looked at her "Hai?" she replied back.

"Just so you know I'm here for you," Syaoran smiled at her,and for once in years,she smiled back.

At someone,but not just anyone,she smiled at him.

"Arigatou," she thanked him.

He found some instant ramen in the kichten and they ate it cold.(Don't ask why I chose Instant ramen)

"Do you still hate that boy?" Syaoran asked.

Sakura thought a little while.

"He'll find out someday," Syaoran smiled and continued eating.
