Spring came early this year. It was warmer than usual but everything still seemed dead. My mind was on Sakura-chan. I hadn't seen her again in months. I began to worry if she had died or not. Damn that rat if she was!
My mind was so heavy that I wandered into a shortcut. The trees were still dead. All I thought about was Sakura-chan. The three months she stayed with me was heaven. She would have stayed longer if the douche bag hadn't showed up. Damn him!
I came to a cleaning. The ground was raked up as if something was to be planted. I began to step through it when someone yelled, "Stop!" I turned to see a little girl staring at me. I had never seen her before in my life. She had silver long blonde hard and hard blue eyes. Her dress was long dark velvet. She clearly wasn't from this village.
"Don't walk through the ground!" the girl exclaimed. I looked at her oddly. "Why?" I asked. The girl stepped forward. "I'm planting roses." she answered. Her answer confused me. "What?" I asked. The girl didn't answer. She just ran away beside them. I just shrugged and walked on the other side.
When I made it home, I found Sakura-chan sitting in front of my house. She had a cut on her lower lip and a big red handprint on her right cheek. I raced to her quickly. Sakura-chan looked up at me. She looked as if she had been crying. "He hit you again, didn't he?" I asked. Sakura-chan nodded. I became angry again. This was part of the problem. The village let Katsuya off too easily. He stayed in jailed for short times. If I had my way, that asshole would be locked away forever!
I sat beside Sakura-chan and held her close. She laid her head on my shoulder. "Don't worry Sakura-chan," I murmured. "I will always be here for you." Sakura-chan said nothing. She just held onto me tight. The real test to my duty had just begun.
