Author's Notes: awww… thank you so much for those who review! Aishiteru! Umm.. for those who still don't know the meaning of some Japanese words, please tell me… I'll post the meanings in the next chapter… please bear with me! v
Why, oh Kami-sama, did you make them appear? Sakura thought.
'Konnichiwa Sakura-chan." Tomoyo said brightly.
'It's been a week since we've heard or seen of you, Sakura. Doshite? Daijobu desu ka?" Eriol asked.
"You know each other?" Syaoran asked.
"Sakura happens to be Tomoyo's best friend."
"Ex-best friend." Sakura said. "Have a good day, Li-san."
She rose and was about to leave when Tomoyo stopped her.
"Naze desu ka?" Tomoyo asked, her voice sounded pleading.
"Naze desu ka? Naze desu ka! See for yourself Daidouji. You have the only thing I don't have ands really want." Sakura said.
"Nani? You have everything I have and even more? I have nothing you don't have."
"You don't get it, do you?"
"Anone, minna-san, why don't we find a genki place, ne?" Syaoran said.
"It's because you're not letting me get it!" Tomoyo said, her voice full of frustration. "What is it, Sakura-chan! What's the point!"
At this time, everyone was looking at them.
"It's Eriol! Eriol is the point! Do you get it now! It hurts" Sakura screamed. "Are you happy! Are you happy to know that I love your fiancée!"
"Y-y-you love Eriol?" Tomoyo asked, hoping that Sakura would say it was a joke.
"Hai, Daidouji, I guess it's too late now, demo… aishiteru Hiiragizawa Eriol, with all my heart, with all my mind, and with all my soul. Sayonara zutto, Daidouji and Hiiragizawa."
And she began to run, a trail of tears following her. Tomoyo covered her face with her hands and fell to her knees crying. Eriol kneeled beside her, comforting her. Syaoran stood up, put the money on the table and left. He had to find Sakura.
"I feel such a baka!" Sakura cried.
Her voice muffled as her face was buried in her hands.
It was currently late afternoon and she was at the Penguin Park and sitting on one of the swings and was softly swinging herself.
It hurts so much. And why did she have to tell them that she loved Eriol? She was so much feeling like an eternal idiot… and right now, maybe it wasn't just a feeling but who she was.
'Kinomoto-san." A soft and gentle-sounding voice said.
Sakura's head snapped up, hands furiously rubbing the tears away. She then, after wiping the tears away, saw it was Syaoran.
"What do you want, Li-san?" Sakura asked.
Syaoran sat at the swing beside Sakura and began swinging himself softly.
"Please reconsider… saying goodbye to Hiiragizawa-kun and Daidouji-chan. They too are hurting from your remark." He said.
"Did they send you here?" Sakura spat back rather roughly.
"You were not the only one hurting in this world."
"But it hurts so much… have you ever felt this anyway!"
"Have you ever been engaged, Kinomoto-san?"
"Iie. Doshite?"
"I once was."
"Honto?"
"I was engaged to Li Meiling, my cousin. It was a family tradition and we've been engaged since 10. I loved her so much. And you know, I found her in bed with a man when I was going to tell her that today was the day we were getting married. She told me all… that she had been in an intense relationship with him for four years."
Sakura was, well to put it, speechless. Syaoran's fiancée had another man while being engaged to him, and for four years too. And he knew when it was already their wedding day. Surely that hurt more than what happened to her.
"Gomen-nasai, Li-san." Sakura said, bowing her head in shame.
"Its alright, Kinomoto-san" Syaoran said in a soft voice.
And there were two people with two broken hearts, comforting each other with their presence.
Whew! Another chapter finished! Hope you all like it! Don't forget to review!
