Chapter 6: Got myself a fever
Sakura's POV
I kicked the rocks on the ground as I walked home from Tomoyo's house after we went to the mall. The fresh air smells so good, so fresh. I sighed. I suddenly realized something. That cherry blossom tree is like me. Never bloomed, never shined. Never showed it's true colors to anyone. I stared at the branches of the tree for a while; I carefully examined it. No buds…yet. I walked right pass the tree and continued my way home.
Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe the tree will never bloom. I sat down on the bench under the tree beside the never-blooming cherry blossom for a while. I stared into the blue sky. Today was the first day of spring, I wonder if the never-blooming cherry blossom tree will bloom this spring. I closed my eyes and slowly inhaled the beautiful scent of spring.
Spring is my favorite season of all. I had never known why. Maybe it's because that things grow in the spring, everything gets so lively and active. Maybe it's because my name has something to do with spring. Or maybe it's both. I closed my eyes, trying to relax. Ok…maybe I was relaxing too much that…I didn't realize…I fell asleep on the bench.
1 hour later
"Don't go mom!!! No, come back! Touya!" I turned my gaze to the opposite direction. "No, Touya, don't leave me too!!!" I cried as I watched them waved me goodbye. I curled up in a ball as I cried and cried. Wait…why do I suddenly feel so cold? With that I shivered and opened my eyes. The first thing that I saw was people gathering around me. Uh oh. Did I fall asleep on the bench? I heard someone say: "That girl must be very tired to fall asleep on the bench." I felt my cheeks heating up. Oh…this is so embarrassing! I took a glance at my watch. It's been an hour! Touya was expecting me home half an hour ago!!! I stood up; I think I should get out of this place before I embarrass myself even more. People automatically made a way for me to go through. I walked through the way that the people made for me, not looking up or making eye contact with anyone.
When I got home, Touya came up to me and asked me worriedly. "Where have you been? I thought you would have been home half an hour ago!!" I looked and saw Touya's eyes filled with worry ness.
"Oh, it's ok. I just kind of fell asleep on the bench in Penguin Park." I told Touya. "And when I woke up, it's been an hour." I tried not to sound to stupid. Touya chuckled a little. I shot him one of my cold glares. And with that he shut his mouth.
"So did you eat breakfast?" Touya asked me. I nodded. "I ate at Tomoyo's house." I replied.
I didn't know how the day went by, but when I realized it, it was already 10 pm. When I finished all my homework for the weekend it was already 11 pm. So I took a shower and went to bed.
Next morning
"ACHOOOOO!!!" I sneezed in my bed. Touya heard me sneeze and rushed into my room. I saw him and smiled.
"What's wrong?" asked Touya.
"Nothing. It's just a cold." I said. "ACHOOOO!!!" I sneezed again. Touya passed me a tissue. And I blew my nose. Touya looked at me worriedly.
"I think you have a temperature Sakura." Touya said, touching my forehead. "We better tell your teacher that you're not going to school today. Oh, I have to go now, I'm going to be late for work." With that Touya rushed to the door. "Remember to tell your teacher your sick!!!" Touya called, and then came the sound of him closing the door.
I quickly got the phone and dialed Meilin's number. After a few rings, Meilin picked up her cell phone.
"Hello?" Meilin's voice carried through the phone.
"Meilin, it's Sakura." I said, "I can't go to school today, I'm sick." I felt like I sounded really sick to Meilin.
"Ok, I'll tell Tereda-sensei." Meilin replied. "But, are you alright? You don't sound so good." Meilin asked.
"Yeah, don't worry about me." I said, trying to smile.
"How can I not be worried about you?!" Meilin Exclaimed. "Tomoyo and I are defiantly coming after school."
"…Ok…I guess." Sakura mumbled. She wanted to see her friends. She thought they would comfort her and she'll feel better.
"Ok, I need to go now. Bye Sakura!!!" said Meilin.
"Bye Meilin." Said Sakura.
At school Normal POV
"Tomoyo, Sakura's sick." Meilin told Tomoyo about Sakura when she found her.
"Really? Is she ok?" Tomoyo asked quickly.
"She said she's ok but she didn't sound so good." Meilin frowned.
"Ok…let's go tell Tereda-sensei that she's sick. Oh, and we're going to go visit her after school right?" Tomoyo asked Meilin.
"Yeah…" Meilin nodded.
Syaoran came out from behind the wall, looking worried. Sakura was sick? Why? How did she get sick? All those questions rushed into Syaoran's mind. Syaoran suddenly realized what he was thinking and hit himself no the head. Syaoran walked towards his homeroom. Put before he got inside, he whispered something like: "How can I think like that… I don't like her… I have a girl friend… Rika…"
After school
"Sakura! Open the door!!!" Tomoyo called, standing in front of Sakura's door. " It's us, Tomoyo and Meilin!!!"
"COMING!!!!!" Sakura shouted. She got up from her bed and walked to the door.
"Hi Sakura! Tomoyo and I brought you today's homework." Meilin said as soon as Sakura opened the door.
"Thanks" Sakura smiled at her best friends.
"So how did you get sick?" Tomoyo asked. Meilin nodded beside her, wanting to know.
"Well…" Sakura scratched her head. "I sat on the bench in Penguin Park…" Sakura took a peek at Tomoyo and Meilin. They are looking at Sakura, listening carefully.
"Yeah." Tomoyo and Meilin said. "Uh huh…"
"And I fell asleep on the bench." Sakura blurted out.
"Why?" Tomoyo tended not to laugh while Meilin started giggling.
"Well…I don't know." Sakura shrugged. "I just sat there and the next thing I knew I was already in dreamland." Sakura said, acting innocent.
"It's ok Sakura…" Meilin patted her on the back. "So…are you feeling better now?" Meilin asked Sakura.
"Yeah, of course!" Sakura exclaimed. "I think I'm going to go back to school tomorrow!" Sakura got excited.
"Are you sure? I mean you're still sick right?" Tomoyo asked Sakura. She had care ness in her amethyst colored eyes. Meilin agreed. "Yeah Sakura, you shouldn't push yourself too hard."
"Well yeah…but I don't want to be too far behind." Sakura mumbled. She didn't want to stay home all day and do nothing again. It's so boring, even more boring then school.
"Yah…ok." Tomoyo gave in.
"But if you don't feel really good in the morning then stay home." Meilin added to Tomoyo's sentence.
"Ok, thanks you guys." Sakura hugged her best friends tightly. Meilin and Tomoyo looked at each other then smiled and hugged Sakura back.
So Sakura, Tomoyo, and Meilin chatted for a while. At 4 minutes past 4, give it a second or two, Tomoyo and Meilin went home. A few minutes after Tomoyo and Meilin left, Sakura suddenly felt herself heating up again. So she walked sleepily to her bed and dug under her sheets. In a few seconds, she fell asleep.
Syaoran's POV
I looked at the phone. Should I call Meilin and ask her where Sakura lives? I know I'm weird, sitting by the phone for an hour. I sighed. I picked up the phone again. Then dropped it. I picked it up again. Then dropped it again. I picked up the phone, dialed Meilin's number half way then dropped it again.
What's wrong with me? I first like Sakura, and then I said all those things to her. And now when I like Rika, Sakura is popping out in my mind again!!! Ahhhhhh!!!!!! This is so complicated!!! I scratched my head, and then pulled my hair. I collapsed on my bed back faced down. I looked at the ceiling. Sakura's lovely smile appears. I rubbed my eyes and shook my head then I closed my eyes and tried to figure out a way out of this mess.
