Chapter 3
Unfaithful: Not true to duty or obligation or promises; having sexual relations with someone other than your husband or wife, or your boyfriend or girlfriend; deliberately and abominably disloyal or likely to betray trust or confidence; not trustworthy.
Tomoyo lay in her bed. She ran her fingers over her lips, remembering each moment of that kiss. "Why did you try to kill me?" she asked in an absent-minded voice.
She stayed awake the whole night trying to think of all possible reasons why Syaoran, Sakura, and Eriol would have wanted to kill her. Her eyes set on the rising sun outside of her window. The beauty of the sky was a beautiful thing to watch as you fall asleep to. She closed her eyes, and rested.
…Syaoran's apartment…
Syaoran and Sakura took each picture off of the wall. He spread each one out across the floor, and he looked at them all. He remembered what they were doing at the exact moments that each picture was taken. The door's lock clicked and Sakura came inside, "Where did you get a key?"
Sakura grinned, "I stole it from you."
Syaoran shook his head and resumed looking down at the picture-covered floor. "Whoa, disaster zone," Sakura giggled.
He leaned against the wall, "Where did you go last night? I fell asleep while you were taking down the last few pictures."
Sakura laughed nervously, "Oh, heheheh, I um, I had to go back home, or else Touya would come here and rip your head off," she looked over at the clock, "Oh my gosh! Is that the time? I have to go!"
Syaoran looked up at her disbelievingly, "You just got here."
"I know, I'll make it up to you," she said, running out the door.
…At the mall…
After a few hours of rest, Tomoyo decided to do some shopping. Apparently, no one thought that she was Tomoyo Daidouji. She looked at all of the new video cameras in Japan's stores. "Are you looking for anything in particular?" the salesman asked.
Tomoyo shook her head. "It's so nice to have tourists coming in here. They usually go to the souvenir shops."
Tomoyo smiled at him, as he went on about how tourists never saw good quality in his stores. She stopped smiling when she saw her ex-best friend walking past the shop. Tomoyo walked out of the store and watched Sakura walk up to a boy waiting at a restaurant. She calmly listened to their discussion. "I think Syaoran's becoming suspicious," Sakura said frantically, "I think we should be more cautious with our relationship."
Tomoyo was stunned. Sakura was cheating on Syaoran. It was so unlike her. "Okay, but we're still on for tonight, right?" the boy asked.
Sakura nodded and kissed his cheek, "Remember, 6:00 at the park."
The boy smirked and left. "Tsk, tsk, Sakura," Tomoyo walked back into the store, "I would like to buy the best camera that you have please."
…Hiiragizawa Mansion…
Eriol lay down on his bed twirling the rose in his hand. He missed Tomoyo so much, but she didn't seem to miss him at all. That kiss the last night was tainted with hatred and darkness, but it didn't matter to him. 'Stupid Kaho! She wouldn't be this way if you didn't tell us about that stupid vision!'
Flashback
Eriol, Syaoran, and Sakura were with Kaho in her classroom. "I had a premonition," Kaho confessed.
The three students nodded their heads. "A girl in Tomoeda will come, and she will turn on all those that she loves, and she will kill them all with no remorse. She will make sure that yours are the most painful deaths of all," the three tilted their heads in confusion.
"W-why us?" Sakura stammered clutching Syaoran's arm.
Kaho's expression was filled with sorrow, "I'm not sure, but all I know is that the girl sees through the eyes of a purple stone," they looked concerned, especially Eriol.
"The only way to stop her… is to kill her," Kaho sighed.
Syaoran walked up to the door, "I refuse to kill my friend."
"Your friend is the girl?" Kaho asked with a hint of almost fake shock in her voice.
Syaoran nodded. "But Syaoran, if what Kaho says is true, then Tomoyo is going to kill us!" Sakura shrieked.
"That doesn't matter. Tomoyo's our friend. Do you really think she's going to hurt us?"
"She might."
"Then you kill her."
"No you!"
"No way!"
There was a slight pause. Sakura and Syaoran looked at eachother then turned to Eriol, hoping that he had an answer. Eriol looked up at Kaho, "You have to do it."
Eriol stormed out of the room, followed by Sakura and Syaoran. "I know that look," he remarked, "You're gonna kill her!"
"You guys are too," Eriol frowned.
"Fine," Sakura stopped walking, "What's the plan?"
End of Flashback
Syaoran barged into his room, "Hey idiot, I think Tomoyo's still alive!"
"I know," he murmured.
"You received a warning too?" Syaoran asked.
Eriol threw the rose to the floor, "Yeah."
"But saw her going into the park. Come on, I want to see if it's really her."
…In the park…
Tomoyo saw the boy waiting in the park. She was hiding behind the giant penguin slide. 'This is going to be fun. I wonder what I should do with these pictures? I know! I'll-' Her thoughts were interrupted by Sakura's giggling. Tomoyo was so distracted that she didn't notice Sakura. She was all over that boy! Tomoyo looked down innocently at the camera in her hands and began taking pictures. As she took the pictures, the make out session kept getting more intense, but unfortunately, she ran out of film. Tomoyo sighed in disappointment and left.
On her way out of the park she saw Syaoran and Eriol heading in. She looked back at the couple embracing each other. 'Grrr, if they see them now, then my plan won't work!' She decided to distract them instead, 'This will definitely work on Syaoran, and if it doesn't work on Eriol… he'll keep his trap shut.' She walked towards them, and put a sweet smile on her face, "Hi Syaoran, hi Eriol. Such a lovely day isn't it?"
Syaoran and Eriol looked at her in disbelief. Tomoyo smirked and ran past them. Syaoran ran after her but Eriol stayed. "Hiiragizawa, come on!" Syaoran shouted.
"You go ahead," Eriol shouted back.
He knew that Tomoyo wouldn't just make them chase her. She must have been hiding something in the park. Eriol decided to go see what it was. He saw two people making out, and he recognized one of them. "Sakura?" Eriol gasped.
Sakura froze solid; the boy stepped away from her, "Umm… I'm going now."
So it was just the two of them, standing awkwardly together. "Are you going to tell Syaoran?" she asked in terror.
Eriol sighed, "No, but it's your fault for doing this, and it will hurt you."
…At the pier…
Tomoyo stopped running and waited for Syaoran and Eriol to catch up. She removed the film from her camera, and then waited. Unfortunately it was just Syaoran who pursued her. He unhurriedly walked up to her, "I can still see your faces whenever I look at water," Tomoyo growled at the water, "Do you remember what you did to me? Do you remember Eriol pinning me to the ground as you made me inhale that chemical filled cloth? Watching Eriol throw me into the water? Standing there, not trying to help me!"
Syaoran was terrified. He didn't understand why such a harmless person would cause so much dread. Tomoyo gave him a death glare that made him cringe. "It was Kaho's fault! I swear!" Syaoran confessed in fear.
"What?" she asked quietly.
"Kaho. She told us to kill you," he said, relaxing somewhat.
Tomoyo tossed the roll of film over to him, "Develop those for me, would you?"
She turned and left. Syaoran looked down at the roll of film. 'What could this be?'
…Later on…
Syaoran walked back to the park. "Syaoran!" Sakura threw her arms around him.
Eriol walked past them with a disgusted look on his face. "What's the matter with you?" Syaoran asked.
"Nothing, did you find Tomoyo?" Eriol asked back.
"No," Syaoran lied.
"T-Tomoyo?" Sakura repeated.
"Yeah, we saw her coming out of the park," Eriol pointed out.
Sakura gulped. That meant that Tomoyo knew about her cheating on Syaoran.
All three of them now had a secret to keep.
For Sakura, it was her affair with the boy. For Eriol, it was seeing Sakura doing such a sinful act. And for Syaoran, it was telling Tomoyo about Kaho's involvement in her murder.
