SOUL MATE
CHAPTER FOUR: The Real Syaoran
Syaoran was gasping his breath, unbuttoned and removed my dress and kissed me again. I was engulfed in an ample hallucination when I then came to my realization that I was just about to have sex with a persocom! I was just about to part from him and put on my clothes back, but darn it... The doorknob clicked and the door opened. And much worse, the guy standing beside it was... Yukito; his eyes wide open in shock. I was petrified, unable to do or even say something. He shook his head; he couldn't believe I just had betrayed him. "You... You traitors..." he was just about to cry, his fists clenched with fury. Finally, my body was already in my control. I slipped on my dress as fast as I can. "Chobits..." Yukito murmured, his face hidden beneath his gray hair. I was startled. I didn't even know what he just said. Syaoran quickly responded to the word. "Hey! What are you doing?!" I asked in curiosity. "Shut up, you bitch!" he said loudly and revealed his face. It was red... in anger. I was really scared.
"Erase all your data about Sakura." "What?!" I was startled. Syaoran's eyes sparkled as a response. "Now let's go home," Yukito said. "Yes, master." They walked out of the room and Yukito glanced at me. I looked at him blankly. He closed the door and I jumped onto my bed. Thoughts started to roam in my head.
Darn... Yukito became my boy friend just this morning, and we're already through? What the heck is that? I mustn't have let that persocom do that to me. He emptied my mind! No, no, no... I mustn't have let Yukito buy me a persocom so identical to Syaoran in the first place. Sigh... I never thought love would be this hard.
I headed to the rooftop with my head still full of thoughts. I sat down on the edge and let my feet dangle. I always go there whenever I get problems. "Oh, I got it!" I exclaimed. Something just popped in my mind. How about erasing my memory of Syaoran? I know he's not gonna remember me anymore... I must forget him too, so I wouldn't be hurt. Perhaps this is the only way.
I obtained the erase card from my pocket and the magical key hanging on my neck. I stared at the card, still not knowing what to do. Unknowingly, the wind blew hard and the card slipped on my hand. I tried to catch it but no luck. And much worse, I almost fell too! But to my surprise, two muscular arms wrapped in my waist pulled me up. I turned around and I was astounded to see whom it was. "Li!" my jaw almost touched the ground in bewilderment. "Hey, that was a little close," he said jokingly. "How did you know where I live?" I asked. "Well, I got sources," he answered. "And what are you just doing in here?" I asked. "I don't know. Maybe I missed you." I felt my face turn scarlet, but I ignored it. "You must not visit me again, understood?" I said. "But why?" he asked, his smile curved down. "You see, I already have a boy friend," I explained. "What the hell?!" "Yeah, and it was YU-KI-TO. He's my soul mate," I said. "Darn him..." I heard him whispering. "Too bad, he came first," I smiled at him jokingly. But when I glanced at his face, it was red in rage. "Syaoran? You alright?" I asked. He just walked out and left me alone. "What's with him?" I asked myself. I thought he's gonna blush again when he hears the word Yukito...
"What am I gonna do now? The erase card flew away and 'he' came back. How can I ever forget about him?!" I went out and heard the phone ringing. I picked it up. "Moshi-moshi, Kinomoto residence! Who is it?" I cheerfully answered the phone. "Sakura?" said the voice from the other line. "Yukito!" I said merrily. "Um, Sakura, sorry for what happened earlier. I was just a little surprised of what happened..." "Nah, that's okay. It's my fault in the first place. So, why did you call?" "I just wanted to say sorry." "Uh, okay. Hey, what was that Chobits thingy that you said?" I asked in curiosity. "Well, that's some kind of password and you can command him anything. It can only be used in Chobits series persocom like that one you had though," he clarified. "Oh. So anyone can do it?" "Nope, only I can do it since I'm the inventor and only my voice was recorded in it. Oh, hey! You're not planning to use it to that persocom, are you?" he shouted. "Of course, not. Why would I?" "That's more like it. Hey, you will have classes next week, right," he said. "Oh yeah! I almost forgot! Must go now! I must buy my things for school!" I said in a hurry. "You don't really need to rush, do you?" "Ehehe... Not really. Okay, bye now!" "Bye!" I put the phone down. I sighed and headed to my room. I wore a red sleeveless top with Chinese collar and a red mini skirt.
I finally went out of the house and set off to the nearest mall just to buy the things that I needed for school. I looked for notebooks, pens, and many other things. I paid for them in the counter. I was on my way home when I accidentally bumped someone and dropped my things. "Oh, I'm sorry..." I said as I leaned down to get them, not noticing who that the guy was. He leaned down too and helped me. Our eyes met and I was quite delighted... I... I didn't know why. We both stood up. "Fancy meeting you here," he said. "Yeah. Me too, Syaoran," I said, smiling back at him. "So, you would you let me help you carry those?" he asked, pointing on the things I bought. "Nah, that's okay. It's not too heavy though," I started to walk away. But to my surprise, he knelt down and begged me. "Please? Please? Please?" he asked. I gazed around; several people were looking at us. "Will you stop that stupidity, Syaoran?" I somehow felt annoyed. "I won't leave this place until you let me help you," he said. "Okay, okay! I won't lose anything if let you do this, right?" I said. He stood up and got my things.
We headed to our house; numerous eyes were glaring at me. We finally arrived at the entrance door of our house. "Okay, you give me those things and you may go now, Syaoran," I said. "Can't I go in?" "No place for you here. Hey! How did you get inside anyway?" I asked curiously. "The door was open and I didn't hesitate to go in," he explained. 'Oh... I remembered. Maybe Yukito forgot to close the door when he went out,' I thought. "Gotta go now," I said. He handed me my things and winked at me. I ignored it and went inside our house. I closed and locked the door.
I went to my room and jumped to my bed. I closed my eyes and every thing turned white. And then, I just felt kind of... sleepy... In a little while, I just began dreaming. (--)...
It was... kinda blurry... A guy was standing next to a lady. Their faces were both sad... The lady was just about to cry when the guy gave her a bouquet of roses. He then turned his back to her and started walking away. The lady yelled something and this made the guy turn around.
I woke up with golden rays of sun beaming on my face. I felt sweat all over my face. I glanced at the clock and it was just 6:35 am. I started recalling my dream... Was it a nightmare? Or is it a sign? I just don't know...
I headed to our kitchen and cooked breakfast. I ate, still thinking about my baffling dream. 'Gosh, this is getting really complicated... Does Syaoran have feelings for me? But even if he has, I can't give back love to him... I already have my soul mate...' these thoughts were roving inside my mind.
----------------------A Week Later-------------------------
"Wow! At last! Time for school!" I said lively as I glanced at my trusty alarm clock. I went inside the bathroom and had shower. After that, I wore my new uniform of Sejyu High School and finally left my room. I was surprised to see my father cooking breakfast for both of us. "Thanks, dad," I said as I sat down on the chair. "No problem. I don't want you to be late in school though." After eating, I was ready to set off for school. "Hey, don't forget your lunch!" I was stopped by father's words. "Thank you very much!" I said as he handed me my lunch. "Gotta go now! Take care, dad!" I went out of the house and saw a classy car. "Ride on!" said Yukito inside the car. "Thanks!" I said as I went in. We headed to our school and when we reached the destination, I hurriedly went out. I waved goodbye to Yukito as the car moved.
"Oi, Sakura!" I heard a familiar voice from afar. "Hi, Chiharu!" I smiled back. Naoko and Rika were also there. We had chitchat for a minute until the bell rang. "Hey, I heard from the others that we will have a cutie in our class..." Rika mumbled as we made our way in the classroom. "Really? Then who is it?" I asked in curiosity. "I dunno," she answered.
At last, we reached the classroom. My friends and I sat in vacant seats and chatted. "Oh, no..." I said. "Why?" Naoko asked. "Look." I pointed at a girl sitting in a chair at the corner. "What the hell? Tomoyo's our classmate?" Chiharu muttered in disappointment. "And just look at that!" Naoko pointed at a guy reaching for Tomoyo. "Oh no! Eriol's in our class too?! This will be trouble," Rika said. I just remained silent, recalling what just happened between them. Is Tomoyo pregnant? Will she get kicked off the school if the headmaster finds out? I had no idea.
In a few minutes, the teacher went inside. "Ohayo gozaimasu," the teacher greeted. "Ohayo gozaimasu, sensei," the whole class greeted back. "Okay, you may sit down now." We obeyed her immediately. The teacher was just about to say something when something or someone caught her attention in the classroom door. "Hey mister, you're late," she scolded that person outside the door. "Gomennasai, sensei." Oh my God, that voice... I know that voice! Is it he? Don't tell me he's also my classmate?!
END OF CHAPTERFourth chapter done! Phew! That was somehow hard to write (And I mean it! It took me so many days to finish this one! I still don't know why...). It is obvious who the guy standing beside the door is. And if you still don't know, you need to wait for the next chappie! (Too bad!)
Just keep reading and reviewing my fic, okay? Don't worry, I accept anonymous reviews. It doesn't matter anyway. I will post the next chappie as soon as possible! I promise!
