Cherry Blossom's Mistake

Chapter 1: Dreams of an unfortunate event

" Touya we're going to a high school reunion take care of Sakura please. Don't let her go to bed too late," said a beautiful woman with wavy long, silver white, hair that went passed her waist. (A/N: What colour is her eyes?)

"Hello dear," she said to her husband who had come up from behind and wrapped his arms around her shoulder.

We will be back late so don't wait up. Try and stay out of trouble you too and please don't fight,"

They were talking to their 18-year-old son who replied, "Don't worry mother, father I will. Won't we twerp--- ahh I mean Saku...? But he was interrupted as his younger sister burst out saying:

"Don't go mommy, papa I don't wanna be left with Touya (A/N: anyone have any ideas for a nickname?) He always call's me kaiju."

Don't worry my little cherry blossom we'll be back soon." She hugged Sakura good bye as Fujitaka told his son " Behave Touya and don't call her any names. Is that understood?"

"Yes, father. I promise I will not call her any names."

Nadeshiko, and Fujitaka walked to the car hand in hand. Before pulling off they said goodbye to their children. Sakura and Touya watched them drive away until they turned the corner.

Later that nightaround 11pm

Sakura had gone to bed since 9:45 but couldn't sleep. All of a sudden a loud ringing broke through the silence that engulfed the house.

"I got it," yelled Touya who knew Sakura wouldn't fall asleep until their parents came home. He picked up the phone and nearly dropped it when he heard the voice on the other line. He wasn't familiar with it but anyone would know who it was if they where greeted the same way he was.

"Hello, is this the Kinomoto residence?" said a sorrowful voice.

"Yes, this is Touya speaking. How may I help you?"

Sakura

I heard the phone ring and decided to find out who it was. I slowly got out of bed and crept down the stairs quietly. I stood by the kitchen door just out of sight and listened to Touya talking.

" What do you mean?"

"……… ……b…"

'It's a shame I can't hear the pers...' I was jolted out of my thoughts when I heard the words that just left my brothers mouth.

"But that can't be," he said in a disbelieving voice, " they where..."he stopped unsure of what to say.

I saw him drop to his knees "They can't be dead," he stuttered.

Touya

"I'm sorry to inform you that your parents are dead. They were involved in a terrible car crash."

I was stupefied when I heard this. I just couldn't believe that were gone… I had seen them not too long ago.

I was brought out of my trance to see Sakura standing by the door just as bewildered as I was.

I'm sorry I gotta go. Goodnight and thank you." I quickly ended the call and rushed to catch Sakura as she fainted.
