So sorry for not updating… I know you guys like the story and I hope you continue reading it!
OOoOoOoOo
The night was chilly. The sounds of the city could easily be heard from the small gap from the open window.
Sakura sighed as she looked out the window. It's not really that she wanted to be up, it's that she had woken up from a nightmare. It was strange though, although she couldn't remember it that much, just the feeling of fear had overtaken her.
The fan on the laptop spurred out the usual ring and the keys made a clanking as they were pressed.
It was 3 am and all surroundings were dark, the only light that immersed the room were the light of the screen and those lights from the street lights.
Her thoughts seemed lost as she checked her e-mail. Tons of messages lined up of those super-fantastical annoying fans who wrote their sincerest letter about their love for her. She had been angered, since her email address was put on the tabloid. As if she didn't get enough attention whenever she was at a shoot.
'If only they knew the real me, Sakura Daidouji.'
She scrolled through her inbox, hoping one would catch her interest. Interesting enough, one was labeled Cherry blossom. She blushed but suddenly realized that 'Cherry blossom' had been the name of Tomoyo's Spring fashion designer clothing line name. That must have been what it's about.
Clicking it curiously she wound up dreading it. After reading it she closed her laptop, grabbed her keys and darted for the door.
Her heart pounded in her chest as she drove to the nearest coffee shop.
'This couldn't be happening… not after this long…' Even her thoughts sounded like they were having a panic attack.
"Good morning Miss Daidouji, the usual?" The cash register beamed.
"Ah-h-h y-yes."
"Hey Miss Daidouji, you wouldn't happen to know about the new line of clothing that's going to be released right, since you are Tomoyo Daidouji's sister."
"Sorry Mina, I don't.. she never lets me see them how many times do I have to tell you.." Sakura said in one of those 'even though I'm her sister she never tells me' kind of tones. Although she wasn't really her sister she didn't mind being called that.
"Aww… too bad, I can't wait to see it. I hope Mai Ling is the main model again!"
"Hahaha, I don't know she's not that great…" Ryuu the other worker at the café cooed.
"What?! Are you kidding she's the best of them all! She's the most beautiful person I've ever seen!" Mina replied her eyes filled with twinkles staring off in to space.
"Hmm, she is pretty but, something's not right about her… I think its her eyes." Sakura's heart skipped a beat and her chest tightened. Yes, she wore contacts, but she was sure they looked like her eyes were like that.
"Yeah, yeah.. Like she had a sad past or something… oh yeah miss Daidouji here's your coffee!" Mina handed Sakura her the coffee.
"Mina! How many times do I have to tell you to call me Sakura!" She whined.
"Ah, your right… sorry Sakura. That's hard to get used to that's all."
Sakura cupped her hands around the cup and sat in the stool closest to the window. It was always slow at this time which is why Sakura comes around. She is usually the only one but today a strange figure in the back corner who wore sunglasses and was typing away on a laptop.
She sipped her coffee, she took it black with only a little sugar. Unlike when she was younger she now prefers things to be bitter. Somehow it soothed her, she stared out the window with thoughts of nothingness. Her heart had somehow calmed down and she had forgotten all about the email.
A chill went down her spine, she felt as though she was being watched. As time went by the feeling didn't leave. Constantly glancing back the strange figure still sat in the same positioned. The man had a complex aura, like she'd know him from somewhere.
The room filled with a loud, obnoxious ring tone which was none other than Sakura's ring tone. She read the caller id, sighed, and answered the phone.
"Hello?"
'M-mommy! Where are you!'
"Oh honey… what's wrong?"
'I woke up and you were gone! I thought you left me for good!'
"Xi-Xi (like zee-zee.) I wouldn't leave you… laughs I just went out for a cup of coffee."
'Mommy, do you know what time it is? You've been gone for over an hour!'
"Um…." Sakura glanced at her watch. "Oh no, I've been gone for so long! Hey Xi-Xi, is Aunt 'Moyo there?"
'Yes… She is screaming because you didn't leave her a note.'
"My, I forgot! Don't worry baby, I'll be home soon. Tell 'Moyo I'm fine."
Sakura sighed, this was unusual, she never stayed this long. She decided it was time to say good-bye to Mina, even though they hadn't talked much.
"Heeeeeeeeeeyyyyy, Mina? I Have to go, My baby girl just called me."
"Okay Sa-Ku-Ra, tell Xi-Xi I said hi!"
"Will do."
She turned and started heading out the door when she spotted that strange customer with the sunglasses. His eyes shown right through those darkly tinted sunglasses. Those once loving amber eyes were now cold as ice. Fading into oblivion it felt as she pushed through the cafes doors.
oOoOoOoOo
Kind of gay right? Ugh, I felt bad because I've been pondering about how it'll lead up to the chapters in my head and I haven't been writing it down.
Well I hope this clears things up.
Syaoran, became the head of the corporation at 16! At twenty he stepped down from his position for unbeknown reasons. He left his eldest sister to run the company. Yada yada. You'll find out more about it in the next chapter.
Yes, the strange customer is obviously Syaoran. He doesn't recognize her, the only reason he was staring was because she told Mina her name was 'Sakura'.
Sakura met Mina months earlier, but when Mina found out her relations to Tomoyo she began calling her Miss Daidouji to be formal. They are close friends, and Mina knows about Xiao-Xing because Sakura would take her to the café after school and get her ice cream. I should probably put this into the chapters coming up though.
I apologize for the chapters mix up.. my word processor cut out some of the words
Review?
