"C'mon Okaa-san! Let's go!" Four-year old Sakura said.
"Calm down Sakura-chan. Just let 'Kaa-san get ready!" Nadeshiko said. She messed Sakura's hair up affectionately.
Sakura pouted cutely. "Okaa-san! You know I don't like that!"
Nadeshiko giggled at Sakura's expression. "Oh, Sakura! Smile, you know your old 'Kaa-san likes that."
Sakura gave a toothy grin. "As long as you like it!"
"Now come on! Get your coat on. It isn't that warm, Cherry!" Nadeshiko chuckled.
Sakura put on her pink coat. It was a light spring jacket that had cherry blossoms petals all over it. The jacket was Sakura's favourite.
"I'm done 'Kaa-san!" Sakura said. She gave a grin. "Now let's go!"
The little cherry blossom pranced off happily to her mother's white car.
Her mother got into her car and said, "Okay, honey. Let's go!"
She started the car and went out of the driveway. She went off the street and got onto the highway.
A drunk driver had merged onto the highway and was merging from a line going up, to a lane going down.
Nadeshiko had closed her eyes for a moment, humming along with the song on the radio. Sadly, only one moment was what it took to take Kinomoto Nadeshiko's life.
BANG!
The drunken driver had hit Nadeshiko's car. The front.
Nadeshiko had immediately died from the impact. Luckily, her daughter had not and was rushed to the hospital.
Kinomoto Sakura woke up five days later, with her father and brother hovering over her.
"Sakura!" Her brother, Touya said. "Dad! Sakura-chan's awake!"
The sleeping Fujitaka Kinomoto's eyes fluttered open. "Sakura's awake!"
"Dad? Where are you? 'Nii-chan, I can't see you! It's all black!" She desperately groped the air.
Touya's forehead creased. "Otou-san, why can't Sakura-chan see us?"
The archaeologist's eyes widened. "S-sakura's blind!"
Sakura gasped. "I'm blind! It's not forever, right 'tou-san? Right?" Her emerald eyes started to water.
Her doctor overheard their conversation and spoke up. "I'm afraid not, Kinomoto. We can run some tests, there won't be a good chance."
Sakura started to cry, letting her arms down.
"No, I don't think there would be any reason. The tests would be costly, and Sakura-chan would just eventually learn how too see again if she was able to anyways. Doctor… Tendou" The archaeologist gave a sad smile.
"Alright Kinomoto-san, whatever you wish. But, there is a place that can give Sakura lessons to learn how to use her other senses instead of sight." Dr. Tendou said. He handed
Fujitaka sighed. "Alright. We'll do what we can."
Sakura calmed down. "Am I gonna be ok?"
"Yeah, kaijuu, you'll be fine." Touya said.
"Touya, where am I? Who's Dr. Tendou?" Sakura asked.
"Sakura, you and Okaa-san were in a car crash…"
"Where's 'Kaa-san?" Sakura innocently asked.
Fujitaka smiled sadly. " Sakura," he said gently, "Okaa-san's dead."
There was a pause, and everyone was silent. Then someone spoke
A quiet voice said, "Why, why is Mommy dead? Was it because of something I did? Why didn't she say good-bye!" Sakura suddenly burst into tears and grabbed her knees and buried her face in them.
Touya rushed over to her and hugged her. "Everything's going to be all right Sakura-chan."
"How can anything be alright! 'Kaa-san's dead!" Sakura cried.
Fujitaka cut in "Mommy's in a better place now Sakura."
"Really?" Sakura said hopefully.
"Yup. Even Dr. Tendou says so, don't you Dr. Tendou?" Fujitaka said.
"Yes." The doctor agreed.
"So mommy's not mad at me? She's happy?" Sakura said doubtfully.
"She's not mad at you Sakura-chan, who could be mad a you?" Touya commented.
Sakura lifted up her quickly, but –"OUCHHHHHHHH!"- Sakura poked tenderly at the bandaged arm on her lap. "'Tou-san, what's this white stuff?"
"It's a cast Sakura, your arm is broken." Fujitaka said.
"Oh, I didn't I could be broken, like the plates."
"How about I go get you an ice cream Sakura-chan?" Touya-chan asked.
"O-kies, but make sure it's my favourite flavour 'Nee-chan!" Sakura exclaimed.
"Maybe I'll make it my ice cream instead." Touya teased.
"No no no! Touya it's all mine! MINE!" Sakura pouted.
"OK Sakura, all yours!" Touya grabbed a five-dollar bill (I don't know Japanese currency! Sorry!;) and ran down to the hospital cafeteria in a flash.
Cafeteria
"Hello little boy, what would you like?" The cafeteria lady asked.
Touya got a little angry, but kept his calm for Sakura's ice cream.
"I'd like an ice cream, and I'm a big boy, my daddy told me so." He replied.
"Yes, of course you're a big boy." She said as she held out the ice cream. "Now that'll be 2. 25."
"Here!" Touya said brightly as he passed his 5 bill to the lady while taking the strawberry ice cream.
"Now here's your change." The lady said looking for some coins.
"Keep your change. I gotta get this to to my sister!" Touya exclaimed, rushing off.
"My, he's in a rush." The woman said, gaping at the athletic
Hospital Room
"I wonder where Touya is, he's taking a while." Sakura said worriedly.
Suddenly a blur appeared and there was an ice cream in front of Sakura's round face.
"Yay!" Sakura said as she got up.
"Well, eat up!" Touya said excitedly.
Well, was that good? Huh? It's my first chaptered fic! I finished it while I finished a package of Hershey Chipits, which belong to Hershey!
Pweesh review!
