Chapter 06: Unexpected
What did she mean by that time of the month? After Sakura had left, Syaoran could only think of her departing words, nonstop.
He hadn't seen Sakura in 3 days and he was getting more worried.
Syaoran ran a hand through his hair and picked up his belongings, getting ready to leave Yashima Corps.
As Syaoran opened the exit doors, he felt the wind pick up, ruffling his hair, making it more untidy. He walked to his car and, not to his surprise, found Mei Lin sitting on the front of his car, looking dangerous.
He was going to walk passed her into his driver's seat, but felt her hand on his shoulder.
"Syaoran…" her voice was stern and strangely serious. Syaoran slowly turned around to find her staring at him with set ruby eyes. He furrowed his eyebrows in worry. Sure, he wasn't so happy with her these days, but she was his cousin.
"Mei Lin? What's wrong? Are you OK?" Mei Lin's frown deepened.
"Actually, Syaoran, I'm not. You've been treating me way differently ever since Kinomoto Sakura bitch came." Mei Lin practically spat out her name, feeling fury run through her being and suffocating her.
Syaoran's worry immediately vanished and was replaced with anger.
"Mei Lin, stop being a baby. She's 16, still a teenager. Just lay off her will you? And if I ever hear you speak of her like that, I swear, I won't talk to you! Do you understand?"
Mei Lin let out a small gasp as her eyes widened. "Syaoran!"
Syaoran ignored her and got into the car, starting the ignition. He glared at her, pointedly telling her to get into the car.
Getting into the car, she slammed the door, shaking the car. She looked fiercely at Syaoran. "Syaoran," she muttered sweetly, with a fake smile, "remember, you're my fiancé. And if she does anything to ruin that…"
Syaoran turned his head sharply at Mei Lin, his blood boiling. "Mark my words Mei Lin, if you do anything to her, I will cut you right off from the Li Clan."
Mei Lin raised an eyebrow as Syaoran stared her down, before backing up on the parkway. She smirked and whispered, "The game is on, Syaoran. We'll see what happens, we'll see."
Tomoyo was at home today. Actually, she had been home for the passed few days, ever since Sakura's dreams had started.
Tomoyo sat down and rubbed her sore eyes, eyes that hungered for sleep.
But, Tomoyo didn't mind. Sakura was her best friend, and this only lasted for a little while.
That horrible day haunts Sakura's dreams, her thoughts, her life. She would never forget that day, even if she wanted to. She was scarred for life.
Sakura cuddled up with her blankets and squeezed her childhood stuffed toy, Kero, allowing his golden fur to caress her skin.
She let out a sad sigh as she flipped the T.V. on, stopping on the show Card Captor Sakura.
She loved this show. It was her favorite show. She used to watch it as a kid, when she spent some time with her family.
She giggled softly as she saw Syaoran, on Card Captor Sakura, blush heavily when Sakura smiled at him.
As the show went on, Sakura's thought began to trace back to the last time she saw Syaoran, at Yashima Corps.
-Flashback-
He grabbed her arm and roughly made her look at him. She saw anger in his eyes. "What the fuck is wrong with you?!"
Sakura flinched at his words before taking her hand and removing his grip. Before entering the car, she gave a back glance at Syaoran.
"Don't worry, Syaoran. It's just that time of the month."
-End of Flashback-
She felt guilty for acting the way she did and making everyone worry; making him worry. They all called her when she didn't appear at work in the passed 3 days; all of them called except Syaoran and Mei Lin.
But that didn't bother her at all. She most definitely didn't want to talk to Syaoran or Mei Lin. Mei Lin always seemed to hate her and right now, Sakura just couldn't talk to Syaoran after their last encounter.
She let out a sigh of frustration. He confused her to no end. He always acted nice and concerned, as if he was in….
She shook her head furiously. No, that's not right. I'm 16, well, technically I guess, he knows that.
Reassuring herself, her eyelids began to close as she plunged into a sleep of nightmares and memories.
She was running…running for her life. She felt her breath quicken as the voice got closer.
She stopped. A dead end.
It was as if she were trapped in a cage, feeling that she had no place to go. She was trapped.
She gasped as she heard the breaking of glass, as it was stepped on. She turned around, meeting malicious eyes. She stumbled backwards onto the ground and curled up in the corner.
The man smirked. "Don't be afraid, I'm not going to hurt you."
The girl began to sob, as he edged closer, arms out front. "Ss-stay away from me!" she rasped out.
The man smiled widely, scarily. "You're coming with me!" Holding one hand firmly against her mouth to prevent her screaming, he carried her struggling body inside an old building, into his supposed home...
Sakura opened her eyes, hearing a slightly annoying beeping sound. She blinked a few times, shaking her head, before closing them again, blinded by all the white around her.
"Sakura!" Sakura bravely opened her eyes to find Touya's worried face looking at her.
"I'm so relieved! I thought that you...," Touya's voice became strained and Sakura shockingly found tears filling up his eyes.
"Touya…what happened? And why do I feel so achey?"
Touya's face became grave. "Sakura, we-we found you on the sidewalk…co-covered in blood." His face may have been set, but his voice very strained from all the emotion he was feeling.
Sakura furrowed her eyebrows, before her eyes widened, remembering the passed events and how that man…
"Touya…he-he raped me!" Sakura let out a horrible sob, her hands covering her mouth. She felt Touya wrap his hands around her being, and felt him shaking, crying along with her.
Outside, Tomoyo and Fujitaka watched with sorrowful eyes.
"Wait, Ryu! Don't, please…!" Sakura's eyes flooded with tears as she watched her fiancé turn on her, looking at her in disgust.
"You filthy, bitch! I need someone pure, not someone that's contaminated!" With that, Ryu turned his back on her, leaving Sakura to feel as if she had been slapped in the face.
"NO!" Sakura woke up with a start, sweat trickling down her face, breathing hard.
"Sakura, it's OK. Everything will be alright." Tomoyo rubbed Sakura's back reassuringly. Sakura took a big gulp and nodded.
Both of them raised their heads up when they heard the bell ring.
"Rina, can you get the door?" Tomoyo shrieked.
Tomoyo's personal maid went and answered the door, to find a tall man with chestnut hair and amber eyes with a man with blue hair and glasses covering his azure eyes.
Rina furrowed her eyebrows. "May I help you?"
"I hope so. We're looking for Kinomoto Sakura?" Eriol smiled charmingly at Rina.
Rina blushed. "Please, come in. I'll let Tomoyo-san know that you're here."
Syaoran and Eriol stepped inside, taking note of the beautifully furnished house. They went and sat patiently, as Rina ran off to find Tomoyo.
Syaoran sat silently.
-Flashback-
The ride went on silently, lasting about 20 minutes. Syaoran cocked an eyebrow at her supposed home.
A girl who wants to help her dad, eh?He couldn't help be skeptical. This neighborhood had to be one of the richest ones in the city, and this mansion looked like the biggest one in the neighborhood.
He got out of the car and opened Sakura's door, before she could blink, and shut it when she got out. They walked around his car and he walked her towards her front door.
She avoided his eyes, not wanting to get into another stare competition with him, and said, "Thanks for the ride home. I really appreciate it."
Syaoran smirked. "Well, your welcome…," he took a step closer to her and bent his head to her ear, "but this isn't your home, is it?" he murmured.
Sakura's eyes widened. Syaoran raised his head and looked her in the eyes. Again, she felt her heart beat faster and the loss of breath.
-End of Flashback-
"Eriol, something's up. Sakura is a girl who wants to help her dad. So how does a girl like her live in a place like this? She wants to raise money to help her dad and she wants to fulfill her dream. But, she could just help her dad if she has this much money, right?"
Eriol nodded. "That's what I thought, after seeing this mansion. She's hiding something."
"Tomoyo-san, there are two men in the living room asking for Sakura-san. One with blue hair and the other with brown."
Tomoyo and Sakura looked at each other in surprised before getting up, hurriedly.
Tomoyo wiped off imaginary dust off her outfit, and turned to Sakura. "Stay in here. Let me see what they want first." Sakura nodded, but got ready nonetheless for anything unexpected.
Tomoyo went downstairs, taking long graceful strides, halting when she entered the living room. She cocked an eyebrow. "May I ask why you two are here?"
