Chapter 8 The new Worker and the Honking

Work came around slowly and like every day I took the bus to Moon Restaurant.

"Hey Patty." I saw her as soon as I walked into the restaurant.

"Hey guess what?"

"What?"

"We have a new worker."

"Who?"

"Another girl." Patty walked off somewhere else.

I walked into the locker room and got my outfit. I turned around and…"Humph." Damn! Two times in a day!

"I'm so sorry. I am very sorry!" That voice sounded so familiar. She finally looked up and her eyes went wide just about the same time as mine did.

"Tomoyo!"

"Sakura!" Well of course we hugged. Every since we graduated we haven't seen each other until now.

"Are you working here too?" We let go of each other and stood there face to face.

"Yeah, I'm starting today. I tried to find you, but Mrs. Li said you moved out and I didn't know where you were living. Actually no one knew where you moved to. Where did you go?"

"Oh. I'm living by myself in an apartment." I lied. Even though Tomoyo was my best friend this wasn't the time yet to tell her I was really living with Syoaron and in a decent house not an apartment.

"Oh. Well we better change and get to work before we get yell at. How long have you been working here?" Tomoyo

"This is just my second day."

Tomoyo was picking things up really quick. I think she was a better waitress than me. I looked at my watch. It read 10 pm. It was time to close up and that was Tomoyo and my job today. I yawned and went to lock the front doors.

'Tomoyo, you locked the other doors and checked the windows already?" I yawned again. I was actually very sleepy. I guess it was because I always had been going to sleep at eight pm.

"Yes Sakura." (just to let you guys know…I don't when to use –san, -kun, or –chan, so bare with me only using their first names.)

"I guess I'll see you tomorrow then." I spoke and we waved bye to each other. It was pretty dark outside to be honest I was kind of scare even though the streets here were the busy traffic kinds.

HONK HONK I looked around and thought it was just some slow car that was getting honked at. I took a couple more steps and the honking came on again.

"Wow there's a lot of slow traffic here at night?" I spoke to myself and kept walking straight ahead to the bus stop.

HONK HONK Okay I swear all that honking was getting me annoyed now.

"Sakura!" I heard my named being yelled off of someone somewhere. I was starting to freak out because it did not sound like Tomoyo's voice, but seemed like it was from some kind of male's voice. I looked around and found no one. I continued walking. Maybe I was just imagining things. Or was it my dad? Was he trying to reach me? 'Aish, Sakura, don't be stupid!' I mentally hit myself in the head.

I kept walking and began to hear foot steps behind me. 'Is someone stalking me?' I was dead scare now and began to quicken my pace and at the same time the person behind me began to quicken his or her steps too. I didn't want to look back because I was scare and continued staring right ahead of me.

I was walking quite fast for a while and the foot steps behind me just seemed to quicken its pace also. Before I knew it a hand grabbed my arm and swung me around. I came face to face with…

"Syoaron…?"
