Cry: For the First Time

Chapter4: Broken Heart?

Sorry coz I changed a lot of things. Hope you'll understand and please review…

Summary: A four year-old boy named Syaoran looks like he is emotionless but he really is not. He always hides whenever he feels like crying because he doesn't want others to see his softer side. One afternoon at Tomoeda, a girl saw him crying. For the first time, he let someone see him crying. For the first time, he felt so comfortable. For the first time, she sympathize someone she didn't know. And for the first time, the girl revealed the softer side of him. She is none other than Sakura Kinomoto.

"Please don't mind her. She's really just like that. Anyway, my name is Yanagi Sakamoto. You can call me Yanagi-sempai as others call me. Hajimemashite!" she said, referring to Syaoran. Yanagi Sakamoto was a year higher than Sakura and Syaoran and she was really famous all over the campus. She has ruby orbs, cherry dark lips and ebony, shiny long hair. Unlike others, her make-up is light and almost unseen. Also, others would not define her as a slut like the other cheerleaders. In fact, she is one of Sakura's friends.

"Hajimemashite! Watashi wa Syaoran Li desu. Thank you for calling the teacher to help us." he said with elegancy. Just then the bell rang, signaling the first period is about to start. Yanagi's and Syaoran's faces seem to show disappointment and earned a strange feeling to Sakura. But of course, with her naivety, she shrugged it off.

"Okay Li-san I hope we would meet again. And Sakura-chan see you at cheerleading practice." Yanagi waved goodbye and headed to her class, her silky hair swayed with the wind in the process. Other guys would drool over her when they would watch the scene that she doesn't really did on purpose but Syaoran just followed Sakura after they bid their goodbyes.

"Ohayou Sakura-chan, Li-san." Tomoyo greeted while panting.

"Ohayou Tomoyo-chan/ Daidouji-san." they greeted. "Tomoyo-chan… why is your video camera on record this early?" Sakura sweat dropped. But then she immediately hesitated what he asked for she again saw the sparkling amethyst orbs of her best friend.

"Ohohohoho" now that was freakish. Sakura was about to say that it's alright so that just maybe her best friend would dismiss it but Tomoyo interrupted. "Oh! Do you want to see it?" she said too sweetly.

rRrRrRrRrRIiIiIiIiIiInNnNnGgGg!

'Saved by the bell!' Sakura sighed inwardly while a childish pout came from Tomoyo and the confused look remained on Syaoran. Question marks and the thought 'Never thought she's that weird…' popped up when he heard Tomoyo's weird laughing.

--♥ Dismissal ♥--

A crying Sakura ran pass the confused and concerned Syaoran and went to talk to her best friend. She headed to their usual spot, the cherry blossom tree and found the person she's looking for. "Moyo-chan!" she tried to call but her sobs made the word she said incoherent.

'That's odd. I thought I heard Sakura-chan calling me… Hmm…" Tomoyo thought and turned around to make sure if it's only her imagination. She immediately began to worry when she saw the crystal tear that fell from her best friend's perfect face. "Saku-chan…" she softly called. "Why are you crying?" she asked worriedly.

"Moyo-chan… He-he broke up with me. He said that our relationship would be of no sense because we are far from each other. He called right after the bell rang. You know I liked him and really had a nice time when we got together at England and so I really can't imagine being without him." she sobbed, soaking Tomoyo's neat uniform.

Tomoyo listened to every word that her best friend had told her. In a way, she liked the whole idea of them breaking up for two reasons. One, she knew that they really are not made for each other and thought that Sakura doesn't really think of him as the one for her. The other one is still oblivion to her. But she also feels bad for her best friend. Sigh! If only she could know how to take care of this situation. Although she knows that Sakura would not be down for more than a month… it's still a month! And she can't bare that thought.

She thought of thought of the right words that would maybe lighten the feeling her best friend is experiencing. "Saku-chan, maybe she's really thinking of you why he did that. Maybe he thinks that it's the best for you. Did you let him explain why he had come up to that idea?" she asked, looking at her best friend's emerald pools of tears.

"Iie. I don't think I can stand to listen to whatever reason he had. I-I love him." she reasoned. Hmm… 'I love him'… the words that she always had thought of. But why does it seem that she's just forcing herself to experience love from a special person?

Tomoyo listened and said comforting words to Sakura like a best friend shall do but her mind is slightly spacing off. Sakura had cried and Tomoyo had comforted for half an hour now and Sakura is now slowly wiping her tears. She was interrupted when she saw a tall shadow in front of her. She turned around and so no other than Syaoran.

"Daijoubu?" he asked. He knows that it's not a good question to ask because it's obvious but what can he do? Everybody knows he's not use to caring about people that is not a part of the Li family.

"Excuse me I need to go to the music room." Tomoyo said smiling. She knew that he'll find the right words to comfort her best friend. But of course the music room is just an excuse. She knew that she could just ask a voice lesson instead of asking Saionji-sensei to teach her (not that she needs one) so that she could record another kawaii moment.

"Hmm… Can you accompany me to Penguin Park? Our family doctor said that I need a lot of fresh air and I think I could have that there. There would be no one else to accompany me so- well if you don't like I can just go by myself." he stuttered. Of course the need of fresh air is just a lie. He could inhale it at the school since there are lots of trees there.

"Daijoubu desu ka? You're red." Sakura said, not minding to wipe her tears before talking to him. Poor Syaoran nodded too enthusiastically. "Maybe you should really follow your doctor's advice." she placed her hand on his forehead to check his temperature. "Oh gosh! You seem to got redder. lol. Is there such word as redder? Are you sure you're alright?" she worriedly asked.

"Daijoubu" he replied, finally gaining his composure.

Sakura blab about her vacation at England the moment Syaoran asked the reason. Surprisingly to her he listened to every incoherent sound she made and understood what it meant. He actually wanted to know the real reason but thought that she doesn't want to tell him. He doesn't know that the reason would be at the end of the story.

They arrived at the park after ten minutes of blabbing and listening. Sakura immediately sat on one of the swing and pushed herself back and forth. "I really had a great time there with him but otou-san, onii-chan and I need to go back here since otou-san finished his big dig there. I had to leave him there. I told him the news but all he did was put on his gentle smile and tell me that it's alright. At first I got angry but then he promised me that we'll keep in touch. Although, I was crying I accepted it. But now he wants our relationship to put on an end because he said that it's no use! I wanted to hate him. For promising… for making me have hope but then shattering it… for making me fall for his matured attitude… for making me have fun with him… But I can't. No matter how I tried I still love him." she said, crystal tears staring to shed one by one.

"Shh Sakura-chan," he started, his voice and amber orbs ever so soft. "maybe he really does have a good reason why on earth he broke up with a sweet girl like you. And besides, he's the one who'll lose not you. I'm sure he could never find any girl even in the entire universe with the same sweet and genki attitude. Maybe you really had a great time with him but you can always move on, ne? I know you're a strong girl if only you'd stop acting like a child." he smirked a little.

Sakura gave him what he wanted- a radiant smile-, stood and hugged him. "Arigatou gozaimasu." she cheerfully said but then frowned.

"Don't worry you'll find the one who'll really be the one for you. The one that would give you everything you need and want even if it's impossible. After all your love would be enough for him to see everything as possible." he softly said, seemingly knowing what's on her mind. He hugged her tight but not the type that would hurt her. In fact, she felt so warm, safe and comfortable because of it.

--♥ Next day ♥--

"HOE!" the innocent birds again flew from fright. You could literally see them sigh if you would watch them closely hehe. Another one morning of running, stomping and eating like there's no tomorrow, they seemed to think. They again landed on the window where the noise came from and didn't mind a girl panicking.

"Hoe! Why didn't onii-chan wake me up? I'm beginning to think that he's enjoying seeing me in hurry." she said while changing her pajamas to her school uniform. She arranged her silky auburn hair in just a couple of seconds, immediately went downstairs to eat and stomped Touya after seeing him parting his mouth.

"Itai! Why did you do that for? I didn't even say a thing to you… kaijuu." he said, slightly glaring at first but then smirked at the name she used to get angry at. She said her an I-don't-have-time-for-you-silly-names glare and he immediately shut up but returned a mock afraid look which she ignored completely.

They finished their food like they are having a contest with each other, bade goodbye and headed to their school/work. They met Yukito on the way there and Sakura blushed again as usual. There is nothing that matters to a simple crush, ne? After all she is just a normal teenager. And it's only normal for teenagers to have a crush.

They arrived at Sakura's school just in time when the bell rang. They bade their goodbye and Sakura went to her locker. She is totally panicking but she didn't miss the letter in her locker. She placed it in her pocket and decided to read it during her first period. I'm rushing things because I can't think of anything that would be interesting here

Fortunately for her their teacher hasn't entered the class or she might get detention for the fifth time this year. Her friends greeted her and she replied with a satisfied smile on her lips. As usual, Tomoyo and her other two friends- Naoko and Rika are there.

Just in time when she is about to ask where Chiharu is, a boy with black hair interrupted her. "Did you know that fishes are once like us humans? They are always like what you did Sakura-chan- parting their lips and closing them without saying a word. A goddess was once roaming the face of the Earth and met a human like that. The goddess got angry saying that he's wasting her time and so she turned the human to a small creature called fish." he said.

"Oh! I don't want that to happen from me. Then what happened to the poor man?" Sakura asked, the others sweat dropped and the smile of the boy called Yamazaki Takashi broaden.

"Lies all lies!" Chiharu, Sakura's friend that she's looking for, emerged from nowhere and hit Yamazaki. He innocently complained but Chiharu was already used to it and did not fell for it. She dragged the story telling Yamazaki from the group after excusing themselves.

"Hoe? That was a lie?" Sakura cutely tilted her head to the side while question marks and sweat drops appeared on both sides of her head. She fell for a lie from him… again.

Tomoyo smiled at the daily routine. Her coming to school so early and waiting for her friends, Sakura being the last one of her friends to arrive and Sakura falling for another one of Yamazaki's invented story. And somehow her instincts that has never been wrong before tells her that something good would occur… and somehow she knows that it's for her best friend in the whole wide world.

Sigh… I'm being lazy and doesn't have an idea on how on earth can I make my story not boring… I mean don't some other authors feel that? If not… I so like to be the same as them.
