I would just like to say in advance that Sakura's personality might be different from what her original personality was. She will have her original personality, majority of it. Since I will be forwarding to when she will be in High School, her personality will change a little bit. Although as I said before, I will be keeping a lot of her original personality, it just might change a little bit.

Chapter One: The Wish

It's has been a few months since Sakura confessed her love for Syaoran. They have been together for a while now, but it seems like the space between them has been growing greatly throughout the months. Syaoran hasn't talked or seen Sakura for quite a long time now, and vise versa. Sakura has been very sad about it more and more lately, as the time kept on passing by. After a year had passed she had given up hope and wanted to forget about it all. As much as she wanted to forget, she couldn't. Sakura loved Syaoran greatly, and her trust was slowly crumbling down to the ground. She was sure enough that he had found someone new.

It wasn't long until Sakura graduated Elementary School, and moved unto Junior High. In her new school Miss Daidouji Tomoyo was sure enough to be there with her, side by side. Not surprisingly enough, a great amount of boys confessed their love for Sakura, but she just turned them down trying as much as she can to not hurt them so much. Even though her outside appearance always seemed so happy, inside she was truly breaking down. As much as Tomoyo or Kero-chan tried to cheer her up, she was still as sad as ever.

Another year had passed and now she was entering her last year of Junior High. By now it seemed like she had amnesia, and had completely forgotten about Syaoran. She had made some very new cool friends, and some guy friends here and there, but she would never go closer than that. She would go out with her friends and go to festivals, or maybe to the beach. She was really in high spirits during her eight grade year. Tomoyo, Kero-Chan, and Yukito was really glad that she was happy once more. As much as it was a mystery how she forgot Syaoran, they didn't want to mention him to ruin her happiness.

Sadly enough one day, all of Sakura's smiles went down the drain. One of the last days of school, some of her friends and Tomoyo were out going shopping after school. Tomoyo and Sakura were around the back corner of a shop looking at some clothes when Takashi and Chiharu came over and started a conversation with them. Surprisingly Syaoran was the next topic they ended up talking about. Immediately after hearing Syaoran's name Tomoyo looked at Sakura.

It all started when Takashi had started talking about where clothes originated. Then after Chiharu pinched his ear and dragged it down he changed the conversation to Syaoran. He simply asked, "Sakura-chan have you talked to Syaoran-kun lately?"

Tomoyo looked over to Sakura and Sakura's face looked shocked, then after regaining herself she gave Takashi-kun a smile and answered, "No not for a long time. I've talk to Meilin-chan, but we don't talk much about him."

Chiharu then asked Miss. Tomoyo wether she invited Meilin-chan for the new play they were doing, and Tomoyo told her she never got to it yet, but she was planning too. Takashi then told Tomoyo that she should invite Syaoran-kun as well. Tomoyo just smiled at Takashi-kun and said maybe. From that moment on Sakura regained all the past memories of Syaoran once more. For the rest of the day she seemed happy, but yet again she was pretty sad inside. Not a lot of her other friends knew about what was going on, or even the fact that she wasn't really herself. Amongst her friends, it was Daidouji Tomoyo who knew wether she was truly sad or happy. After all they have been friends for quite some time now.

After everyone went their seperate ways, Sakura headed home. Touya was cooking dinner, and her father was nowhere in sight. When she entered the kitchen she went over to where her mother's picture was and gave her mother a true smile. She smiled and said, "I'm home okasan." Afterwards she asked her older brother Touya where otosan was, and he said otosan wrote it down on the white board. She looked at it and it said that he was going to be home late.

Once her brother was done cooking he set the food on the table, and the door beel rang. Sakura went over and opened the door and it was Yukito-san. She was surprised and bowed a little, and greeted him good evening. He said good evening as well, and gave Sakura a smile. Afterwards Sakura lead him to the kitchen and asked her brother why he didn't tell her Yukito-san was coming over for dinner. He just simply said he had forgotten to tell her. She glared at him and took her seat.

After dinner was over, and Yukito had went home she started cleaning the dishes. Touya had went into his room and started doing his homework. Once Sakura was done with the dishes, she took the extra desert and went upstairs to her room. At the site of Sakura, Kero-chan quickly asked her if she had brought him some desert. Sakura chan placed the desert on the floor and told him that she was going to go to sleep. Kero-chan asked what was wrong, but she was already knocked out. Kero-chan thought wether it was about Syaoran. He just told himself that he'll ask Tomoyo-chan what was wrong the next day.

When Sakura dozed off to sleep, she had a dream that she was under the cherry blossom tree at the Tsukimine Shrine. She then saw herself under the tree. She asked her other self what was going on. Her other self had said that she was terribly sad, she can't forget the memories of Li Syaoran. Sakura then looked down at the ground with a look of sadness on her face, and she said she can't forget about him either. Sakura then said, "I just wish that all of my memories about him would disappear, so that I can finally forget, and go on with my life."

Sakura's other self asked her, "Is that what you truly wish for?" Sakura then nodded. "Then your wish shall be granted. When you wake up the next morning all of your memories consisting Li Syaoran shall be forever erased from your memories."

Sakura then asked, "But what if I want to remember him again?"

"When the time comes and he arrives in your life once more, you will not remember. Your heart will be the one to decide when you will remember once more. When the day your heart decides that you want to remember him, from that day on when this cherry blossom tree blossoms for the fourth time, you will remember." She answered.

"I don't understand."

"The time when your heart has decided it wants to remember Syaoran once more, you will not instantly remember him again. You will seek this cherry blossom tree at Tsukimine Shrine, but you will not understand why. This tree blossoms and withers away according to the season. You will count how many times this cherry tree withers and blossoms, and once you reach the time when this tree has blossomed for the fourth time you will regain the memory of Li Syaoran after that day has arrived. After this dream, this cherry tree will forever hold on to every memory you have of Syaoran until your heart finally decides when it wants to remember once more."

After Sakura finally understood she nodded at her other self, and looked at the cherry blossom tree at Tsukimine Shrine and closed her eyes. She was finally going to forget.
