Chapter 11

-

It was late at night and Renzo was walking down the street, holding hands with a beautiful young blonde. "So we were flying home from England and we flew right into this level 6 storm."

The blonde cut in, "Aren't there only 5?"

Renzo nodded smirking. "Exactly, and the pilot got so freaked out that I had to fly us home. Now my landing was a little rocky, but hey, I did save the day."

The blonde giggled, "Wow Renzo you're so amazing!" She wrapped her arms around him, snuggling close. He grinned, "I kno-OH Shit!" Renzo shouted throwing his date, literally, to the ground.

The blonde stood up angrily. "RENZO! That's the second time tonight!"

"SSSHH! Baby, they'll hear us!" The blonde looked around. "Who?"

Renzo pulled her down behind a car and pointed across the street. "There!"

Across the street stood Sakura with her ex, Josh. "What the hell are they doing here?"

"Baby I don't want to spy on them. Let's go." She grabbed his hand and tried to pull him up. He dropped her hand and turned back to her, "Do you mind!" The blonde huffed and walked away leaving Renzo to spy on the two.

He watched as Sakura began to cry and when Josh handed her his handkerchief. He glared when she took it and smiled, and glared more when he put an arm around her. He watched as they walked away together, with his arm still around Sakura's waist.


"So I followed them for about 20 minutes in a cab until they stopped at some apartment. And I waited for them to come out until I fell asleep, but she was still there when I woke up."

Renzo crossed his arms and leaned back against the counter in his apartment. Meiling, Eriol, and Tomoyo were sitting in front of him listening to his story. "So what do you guys think?"

Tomoyo shook her head, "I don't believe it. Sakura wouldn't cheat on Syaoran."

Eriol turned to her, "She has been acting really weird lately."

Tomoyo stood up enraged, "I can't believe you're actually considering this!"

Meiling stood up. "There's only one way to find out." She ran out the door with her friends right out on her heels. When she reached her friends' apartment she jiggled on the handle only to find it locked. "Since when did you guys lock the apartment."

"Since never." Tomoyo walked up next to her and pulled on the handle. "Sakura must have locked it on the inside." She reached into her pocket, searching for the key. "I don't have mine on me." She turned to the guys. "You guys have the spare right?"

Eriol shook his head, "No, just wait and I'll get it."

"Hang on." Renzo reached in his pocket, pulling out the key. "Here you go," he said and handed her the key.

Eriol looked at him weirdly. "You need to take off your shoes to count to 20 but you carry around their spare key?"

Renzo shrugged. "A guy's gotta eat, and what does one thing have to do with another?"

"Got it!" Tomoyo opened the door only a few inches. "The door's chained."

"Well she-'"

"SSHH!" Meilin hushed him and slid next to Tomoyo. "She'll hear you!"

Eriol shrugged, "And why shoudn't she?"

Tomoyo stepped on his foot. hard. "Sakura's on the phone!" She whispered.

"Yeah, it would be rude to interrupt-OW!" Meilin hit Renzo on the back of his head. "She's probably on the phone with Josh you idiot!"

"SSSHH! I can't hear what she's saying!" Tomoyo whispered. The other three quickly crammed up against her to hear the conversation.

They peeped into the apartment and saw Sakura sitting bundled up on the couch.

"Hello?"

-

"Hey, I was hoping it was you."

-

She sighed into the phone. "As good as it can be."

-

She shook her head. "No. I don't want him to know."

-

"I'm-I-."

-

"It's so hard."

-

"I need to see you, in person."

-

"Alright."

-

"Bye"

"That whore!" Meilin growled under her breath.

The others turned around to face her. "I can't believe Sakura would do this!"

Tomoyo shook her head. "No, this is probably just some misunderstanding. Right?"

Eriol and Renzo said nothing.


10 Minutes Earlier...

Sakura, sitting alone in her apartment, was flipping through one of her old scrapbooks. The pages were filled with pictures of when she was younger with her brother and father. She turned the page to see one of her favorites. The day the picture was taken was before her mother had died. They were so happy then. They had gone on a picnic at the park, when the cherry blossoms were full in bloom. Sakura wiped the tears that began to fall down her face. That picnic was one of the only good memories of her mother.

Sakura jumped, startled as the phone rang. She placed down the book and walked over to the phone, answering it.

"Hello?"

"Hey, it's me."

"Hey, I was hoping it was you."

"How are you doing?"

Sakura sighed into the phone. "As good as it can be."

"Did you tell him about the trip yet?"

Sakura shook her head even though he couldn't see it. "No. I don't want him to know."

"It's alright. You don't have to tell him anything you don't want to."

"I'm-I-."

"I know you're scared, but everything will be alright."

More tears began to fall down her cheeks. "It's so hard."

"I know."

"I need to see you, in person."

"I'll be right over."

"Alright."

"Bye"

"Bye" Sakura listened as he hung up the phone. She placed down the reciever and let out a sigh.
