"Miss Tomoyo why do you look so sad?" a lady in her mid fifties who had her black hair that was accompanied with gray hair in a bun asked as she walked into the purple room; that was brought to life by the sun that shone through the window.
"Nana I don't know what to do anymore," Tomoyo answered her as her amethyst eyes looked out the window.
"Is it about him?" she asked as she stood next to her staring outside at Eriol who was in the front yard looking at the roses at the Daidouji residence, he looked up at the window and smiled; Tomoyo sighed and moved to sit on her bed.
"I don't know what does he want, after all these years he comes back into my life what does he really want?" she asked in frustration.
"Don't you think you are being just a bit harsh on him?" Sarah asked as she picked up some of Tomoyo's clothes that were lying around the floor.
"I wouldn't call it harsh…I would call it protective shell?" Tomoyo said trying to explain herself but couldn't help to smile.
"Protective shell huh…if I remember you two were best friends when you little it was hard to separate you two. I remember you guys hugging tight so neither one of you would go home," Sarah reminded Tomoyo who was staring at her, "and how can I forget those pranks you guys use to pull."
Tomoyo tried not to laugh but she couldn't keep in the laughter remembering the pranks she and Eriol use to pull on their family and friends.
"I haven't heard you laugh that hard in such a long time," Sarah said with a smile as she grabbed something from one of Tomoyo's drawers.
"Nana I am sorry for all those pranks we did on you," Tomoyo apologized with a smile as she got up and walked towards the window.
"Just remember…you may think you hate someone but the thing that you are really feeling is something from the past; people deserve second chances and to be able to explain for the actions they make," Sarah said as she looked at Tomoyo who had her back at her.
"From what Hallmark card did you get that from?" Tomoyo asked not turning around.
"It's what my father use to tell me," Sarah replied.
"But what do you mean by it?" Tomoyo asked curiously.
"All I can tell you is when the time is right you'll figure it out on your own," Sarah said as she placed the object that she was holding in her hands on Tomoyo's bed and left the room.
Tomoyo let out a soft sigh as she stared at the cars passing by from the window. She turned around and her amethyst eyes froze on the small black music box that rested on her bed it was covered with yellow roses, she walked over to her bed and picked up the small box she opened it and the pink ballerina that was in a slumber started dancing in circles as the soft classical music place in the background.
Flashback
"Eriol this isn't funny you know I don't like surprises," eleven-year-old Tomoyo said as she walked into the dark room, "Eriol I am serious come out or I am leaving this instance."
"Why?" Eriol asked as he jumped in front of her with the flashlight shinnying on his face.
"Don't do that you scared me," Tomoyo gasped as her hand covered her heart.
"You are such a sissy like every other girl," Eriol teased as he turned the lights to his rooms on.
"Am not," Tomoyo hissed as she put her hands on her waist.
"You are too, you can't even watch scary movies," Eriol said as he walked towards his desk.
"That's because I don't like scary movies that's all," Tomoyo replied as she tried to think of something to say.
"Uh-huh sure," Eriol said as he turned to face her.
"Any ways why did you want me to come this better be important," Tomoyo demanded changing the subject.
"Well I wanted to give you this," Eriol said as he handed Tomoyo a small black music box that was covered in yellow roses.
"Wow it's beautiful," Tomoyo said in amazement as she grabbed the box and opened it up.
"It was my grandmother's I want you to have it, that way you feel lonely you can play this and you wont be as lonely," Eriol explained as a smile formed on his face.
"Thanks I promise I'll take care of it," Tomoyo said as she closed the box and returned the smile.

Tomoyo closed her eyes as tears built; she closed the music box and put it back on her bed, she sighed as she grabbed her math book and started doing her homework.
