On with the story!!
Chapter 1Sakura had just gotten home from school. She ran upstairs to her room and collapsed on her bed. It had been a long day and she couldn't get him off her mind. She sat up and looked in the mirror; there staring back at her was a young pretty girl that had shoulder length golden brown hair. Her deep emerald eyes were filled with emotion. She knew that she had to cook dinner for her family before they came home because they would complain. But all she could think about was the way he kept staring at her with his serene light hazel eyes. She couldn't figure it out though he always stared at her and tried to be near her, Every time she asked he would say he doesn't like her. 'Strange things boys are' she thought subconsciously. She dropped her head on her pillow and fell asleep.
"Sakura! You stupid girl! Why haven't you cooked dinner yet!?" She heard someone stomping up the stairs with great fury. She jumped up immediately. Then suddenly her bedroom door swung open. "Sleeping on the job eh?" her father exclaimed "Dad I had a hard day at school I only accidentally fell asleep!" exclaimed Sakura. "I work ALL day in Tokyo where all people do is complain! And I expect to come home eat have a few drinks and go to bed! I don't want to cook my own Food!!!" "I'm sorry I'll cook now". Ever since her mum had passed away last year from cancer her dad was nothing but mean to her.
She started to cook but then he drifted into her mind again and she didn't realise what she was doing. She started thinking about what he had told her best friend over the Internet last night. She then looked down at the food and realised the vegetables were over cooked and the meat was burning. She quickly turned the stove off and served the food. She sat down with her older brother and father. They ate silently. Then her father got up, opened a bottle of beer and watched the TV.
Sakura quickly finished her food and ran up to her room. The Light illuminated her purple and pink room with all the teddy bears everywhere. She sat on her bed and looked to her right. On a little oak table were her computer and a photograph next to it. The photo was of her mum and her before she died. Sakura sighed and switched her computer on. While she waited for it to turn on she grabbed her mobile and dialled one of her best friend's number. Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring.... Sakura sighed I guess she's not home. Then out of the speaker of the phone came a familiar voice. "Hello Janet speaking!" Sakura replied "hey Janet hows life in Kyoto?"
"Its alright I guess. How was school today?"
"Its alright I guess, nothing really interesting happened."
"Oh I see. Are you online?"
"Not yet I just turned my computer on now."
There was a pause and then Sakura said
"Wow so many people are online now!"
"Yeah you should come on this time more often 'he' is usually online now"
"He he yes I know he just came online now"
"Are you going to talk to him?"
"NO! What would I even talk about?"
"Say anything! What the day was like, what you did it's not really that hard!"
"Aww but..."
"Just say hi to him for me! Then you can see if he would talk to you."
"O K but I'm only doing this to make you happy"
Sakura opened a conversation with him and typed,
Hey Jai its Sakura!
She waited five minutes but he didn't reply. She Sighed.
"What's wrong?" Sakura had almost forgotten that she was on the phone still
"He hasn't replied I told you that he wouldn't want to talk to me. Hey I'm going to have to hang up on you I'll talk to you online. Ok?"
"Yeah sure! Bye bye!"
"Bye" Sakura sighed
Then she realised that she had a message from Jai. He had replied to her hello. Sakura felt really blissful she couldn't believe that he would even talk to her! He said that he was playing a game and couldn't reply to what she said. They talked for a while but then ran out of things to say. At the same time she was talking to Janet. Janet was telling her about the guy that she liked who was in her new class. His name was Bradley.
When Sakura had finally turned off the computer and had a shower. She had to be quiet or her dad might hear her. She didn't want to wake him or she would have to suffer a half an hours beating. After thirty minutes she tip toed out of the bathroom in a towel and walked to her bedroom. She got changed into her pyjamas and sat on her bed to do her homework. It was about 10.30pm when she finally finished it all and she was feeling quite sleepy. She crept into her snug warm bed and turned off the lamp.
