He placed the larger picture of him and Sakura where the photo used to be. He then ripped up the smaller photo in his hand into smaller pieces and tossed them on the floor. The room was already a mess so what was a little more things to make it messier? He then continued to head to the kitchen.

Chapter 6: You'll See me Sooner

Sakura was getting ready to go to the courtroom. Today was the day of Koji's trail and she was afraid she was going to have to face him again. They had already forced him into signing the divorce papers, which she had heard he gladly agreed to. It was obvious that now he hated her with a passion.

Just thinking about him made her shudder. She knew she had said this to herself a million times already but she still couldn't believe she had married him and had thought he was perfect! She should have seen that he was twisted, crazy, psycho, whatever word you would call him she didn't care! It was all the same to her. In her mind Koji plus Perfect equals BIG NO!

She had finished getting ready. She wanted to make a good impression to the courtroom. She didn't want a repeat on when she met Li Syaoran. She didn't want to go to court dressed like she just woke up.

At the thought of Li she couldn't help but smile. There was something she liked about the man that she couldn't place her finger on. Maybe it was the fact that he didn't mind about how she was dressed when he came over, or the way he tried to not get to personal with his questions, or maybe it was that he reassured her that he would be there at the trial today. Either way she really wanted to see him again.

The smile faded when she started to think of her daughter. Trying to tell Sumiko about her father was hard. She had no idea what to say. She had to resort to telling her that her father had to go away for a while and she might not see again for a long time. Sumi had looked so sad when she told her that. She really did love her father and she knew Koji loved his daughter, but there was no way in hell she would let him anywhere near her. For all she knew, if she let him near her the next time she could see her would be at her funeral.

She shook those thoughts out of her head as a way of getting rid of them. She wouldn't think about stuff like that happening to her daughter. She wouldn't let something like that happen!

She looked herself over again and headed out the door. She had already left Sumi at Nozomi's the night before so she didn't have to worry about her. She got in her car and headed to her husband's trial.

Syaoran was standing in front of the courthouse checking his watch. The trial would start in ten minutes and he noticed that Sakura wasn't there yet. He found himself wondering if she was okay. He figured coming here would be hard on her; she seemed to be a pretty emotional person. Even though he had only spent about an hour with the woman.

Just when he looked up after looking at his watch a car pulled up. The door opened and he noticed that when the woman inside walked out it was Sakura. He had to admit, she looked a lot better then she did last week when he first saw her. Maybe it was because she wasn't in her pyjamas this time. She looked over in his direction and smiled as she started to walk over.

She walked up in front of him and spoke, "So I guess you kept your promise," she started off. "You did come to the trial."

He shrugged his shoulders, "Well I was working on the case, and I figured I should be here to make sure all my working on the case wasn't for nothing."

She nodded her head in understanding. She then got a nervous look on her face as she spoke what she was thinking, "Am…am I going to have to see Koji again?" she asked as she looked down and played with a bracelet on her wrist. It was a nervous habit that when she was nervous she would play with any jewellery she had on. Usually it was her wedding ring, but ever since she had found out Koji's secret she had taken it off and flushed it down the toilet. A little immature but she never wanted to see that thing again.

Syaoran looked at her in pity. It must be pretty hard to face him after what had happened, but couldn't lie to her, "It is his trial and he has to be there for his sentencing." He didn't have to say anymore. He knew she knew the rest of his sentence.

She nodded her head in despair. She was afraid to see him again after what he said the night he was getting taken away. She turned away from Syaoran and walked through the doors since the trial was now about to start. Syaoran just watched her walk away.

Koji was sitting in the courtroom listening to a bunch of people say how guilty he was. He had long since stopped listening. He knew he was done for it was obvious. Sakura had see everything and called the police, she would tell them of his strange behaviour lately, she would say how he would come home late once in a while, and she would show them where he buried the last body. Then the boys at work would say how he never had to stay late also. He had given up hope that he could get out of this.

During the entire trial he couldn't stop staring at Sakura. He kept taking in her beauty and how much he had loved her and had wanted to be with her and be a family with their daughter. But that couldn't happen now. Everything had changed; all he wanted now was to get revenge on his wife. He couldn't let her live knowing that she was the reason he was about to get sentenced away. Because of her he would never see his daughter again and she would have to pay for that. He had mixed feelings when it came to her now. He hated her and he loved her at the same time. All his feelings for her were still there even after what she did, but there was the hate for what she did still there as well. It made him so confused, but he knew that the hate over came the love because it was her fault they could never be together.

It also angered him to see that she kept looking over to a man who was sitting a few rows back. He had never seen him before and it was frustrating him wondering who he was. He wanted to know who he was to Sakura and why she kept looking over to him. He couldn't see him very well but by the looks of it he had chestnut brown hair that looked unruly. That was all he could really make out without having to turn fully around and rising suspicion. He sighed in defeat. 'I guess I'll have to wait until everyone starts walking out.' He thought bitterly in his mind.

He judge's voice snapped him out of his reverie, "Mr. Tzu, from all the evidence and claims I have heard I have come to the conclusion that you are indeed guilty. Do you have any last words or requests?"

He took a deep breath, "If I confess to the crime will you shorten my sentence?" he asked with confidence.

The judge looked closely at him for a minute as if contemplating what he was going to say next. He then spoke, "You mean a plea bargain?" he asked.

Koji nodded his head at the term the judge used. "Yes, I want a plea bargain."

The judge sat back and was ready to listen to the confession made by the obviously guilty man. "Very well, but I will tell how long once you are finished."

Koji nodded his head. He noticed how everyone in the room seemed to lean forward in their seats as soon as the judge agreed to let him plea bargain. It seemed that they wanted to make sure they heard everything he said. "I, Koji Tzu, am guilty of murder in the first degree in twenty-four counts."

Everyone in the room was silent. Sakura couldn't believe that he had taken so many lives and acted like it was no big deal. Everyone was now waiting to see what the judge's decision would be.

"I don't think I am going to need a sentencing trial for this." The judge sighed and continued, "Koji Tzu you are sentenced to twenty-four years in Tomoeda High Security Prison. One year for each murder you committed. When you are released you will be on watch to make sure you never commit another act of crime again and you will not return to your job on the police force. That is your sentence." The judge announced and banged his gavel. "Trial adjourned."

After that everyone in the room stood up. All glad that he was sentenced away, but all didn't think it was long enough. Koji was escorted out of the room and taken to a police car and was drove away to what was to be his new home for the next twenty-four years.

Sakura was walking over to her car when she saw someone leaning on it. As she got closer she saw that it was Syaoran. She walked up to him and he straightened up.

"What are you doing over here?" she asked him. It was the first thing that came to her mind when she saw him there.

"Just wanted to see how you were after the trial. You were pretty nervous when you walked in there you know." Syaoran answered.

"Well I'm fine, I just think he should have been given a longer sentence." Sakura grumbled.

"Well he's gone for now and that should be all you care about." Syaoran tried to reassure her. He didn't know why he even cared how she felt; there was something about this woman that made him want to make sure she was okay.

"I am glad that he's going to be gone, but I'm worried about Sumiko. I don't know how to explain to her about her what her father has done," Sakura admitted.

Syaoran looked down at the small woman in front of him. He couldn't help but feel bad for her. She just found out that her husband was a murderer and now she had to take care of her daughter on her own and explain why her dad wasn't there. "I'm sure everything will be alright."

"I hope so," Sakura sighed. "Well I have to go and pick up my daughter from her babysitter's, I left her there over night so I would have less to worry about this morning."

Syaoran nodded his head in understanding and moved away from her car. "It was nice seeing you again Kinomoto. I hope to see you again sometime."

"You too Li."

And with that, Syaoran watched as she got in her car and drove away.

Sakura pulled up in front of Nozomi's house and got out of her car. She walked up to the front door and knocked. She waited until the door opened and Nozomi opened the door and smiled when she saw Sakura standing there.

"SAKURA!" she yelled happily.

"Hey Nozomi," Sakura smiled at her. "Was my little monster behaving for you?" she joked.

"Oh she was fine." Nozomi dismissed the joke with a wave of her hand. "She's always an angel for me."

"Well angel or not, I'm here to take her off your hands."

"Okay let me get her," as soon as she said that, Nozomi ran into the next room to get Sumiko.

"Here she is!" Nozomi announced as she brought Sumi into the room.

"Mommy!" Sumi shouted as she came over and gave Sakura a big hug.

"Hey sweetie! Are you ready to go home?"

Sumi nodded her little head and went to get her shoes on.

Sakura went over and grabbed a bag that had all her stuff.

"Ready to go?" she asked once Sumi came back with her shoes on.

"Yup!" she smiled, "Bye Nozomi!" she waved. Nozomi smiled and waved back. Sumi then walked out the door to wait in the car for her mom.

"Thanks again Nozomi." Sakura smiled great fully.

"No problem, so how did the trial go?" Nozomi asked losing her cheerful smile.

"Twenty-four years." Sakura sighed.

"Doesn't seem long enough." Nozomi said with disgust in her voice.

"I know, but he asked for a plea bargain."

"I see," Nozomi whispered.

"Yeah, well I got to go. Thanks again, you were a big help."

"Anytime. See you soon."

"Yeah, same to you." Sakura said and walked away to her car.

Once she got into the car with her daughter she pulled out of the driveway.

"Mommy," Sumi's small voice called over to her catching her attention.

"Yes?" Sakura asked softly.

"Do you know when daddy is going to come home?"

"Not for a long time baby. Not for a long time…" she whispered mournfully as she saw the depressed look on her daughter's face when she answered.

"Oh…" she whispered disappointed. "He still does love me right mommy?" she asked hoping that her father wasn't gone because of her.

"Of course he does baby, of course he does." Sakura told her with tears threatening to fall.

"Okay…. just checking." Sumi said and stared ahead at the road.

They drove in silence or the rest of the ride.

Koji was now sitting in his cell. The cell he would be staying in for a long time now. The place disgusted him. He was going to have to smuggle in a pack of cigarettes to make sure he doesn't become some guy's bitch. He heard that usually works…at least it did in the movies.

"You think that you'll have to wait twenty-four years to see me again, don't you Sakura?" he was muttering under his breath. "I'll make sure it's much sooner…"
