Chapter 2
Sakura woke up the next day and shuffled herself into the kitchen. When she sat down she noticed that Li was there cooking breakfast.
"What are you doing here Li?" she asked. He set the spoon he was using down and turned around. The look she saw in his eyes scared her.
"What happened?"Sakura asked again. Li stood staring at her for awhile then finally said,
"Your family died... Don't you remember?" Sakura gave Li a crazy look.
"What are you talking about? My dad and brother are on a business trip. They'll be back tomorrow!" Sakura exclaimed. Li picked up the newspaper and turned to the obitiueries. He set the paper down and Sakura saw her dad and brother.
"I thought it was just a dream. I am alone now! Why did they go and die!"she cried. Li wrapped his arms around her and held her. "Its okay! I'm here for you! Tomoyo is to." he calmly told her. he honestly didn't like seeing Sakura like this. Sakura cried for awhile then got up.
"I'm going to go get ready for school." she said then headed upstairs.
An hour later Sakura and Li left her house for school.
"Are you sure about this?" Li kept asking.
"Yes! Li if you don't stop asking I'm going to hit you!" she exclaimed angrily. Li shook his head and sighed. Sakura was about to say something about his sigh but decided against it. they continued their walk to school silently.
Once Sakura got to school she heard someone scream,
"SAKURAAAAAAA!" Sakura turned around to see her best friend Tomoyo running towards her.
"Hi Tomoyo!" Sakura greeted.
"Mom told me the news! I'm so sorry about your dad and brother"
'Great! The last thing I need is everyone's sympothy!' Sakura thought but said to Tomoyo, "I'm fine! Honestly! Li said that he would stay with me until everything is settled." Tomoyo looked at Li and yelled,
"YOU DID!"
"Yeah! I afford!" Li said then left.Sakura and Tomoyo watched him leave.
"I don't see what his problem is! Why is he always rude to everyone except you?" Tomoyo asked.
"I don't know! But its nice... he's very caring to me." Sakura said then headed to class. Tomoyo followed after her.
Sakura sat down in her seat just as the bell rang. Li sat on the other side of the room while Tomoyo sat next to her.
"Class! Today we have a new student! let me introduceto... Hokaku Tanaki! He moved here from Hong Kong!" Ms. Matsudara exclaimed. Sakura looked up to make eye contact with Hokaku. His green eyes looked with hers. Then it hit her!
"OH MY GOSH! HOKAKU! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" Sakura yelled out loud in class.Hokaku smiled then said,
"I'm glad you remember me Sakura!" Li looked back and forth between Sakura and Hokaku...
