Unforgotten
Chapter 2
After an hour of loud commotion and things have died down, the boy explains everything to her from a distance, since she was sitting on the other side of the wall acting like the world was going to end.
"So do you believe me now?"
"I guess I can believe you. But if you're lying to me, then I swear, I'll report you!"
They hear a knock on the door and the boy walks to the door and opens it. An old man in his 70's is standing outside in a raincoat. The old man was the landlord of the apartment houses. He says to the boy, "My. What was all the ruckus about?" He sees the girl sitting down looking as if she was about to die in a couple minutes and adds, "Oh. So now you're awake. You're very lucky that this young fellow found you. You would have died in the cold. He's a very nice young man you know. Well, I'll be leaving now. And don't make too much noise. You'll scare everyone away. Don't cause too much trouble or else I'll have to tell you to leave. And you know that I wouldn't like you to go. You're like a son to me and I don't want to have to kick you out. So don't make too much noise, you go that?"
The boy nods his head and says good-bye as the old landlord leaves. He closes the door and the girl says, "I'm sorry. I guess I really can believe you know."
"It's…okay," He says with a sigh. He walks over to the girl and sits right in front of her. His amber eyes looked straight at her. He guessed she was about his age, sixteen. She was really pretty with light brown colored hair that reached her shoulder, and deep purple colored eyes.
'He's just staring at me…' She looks away from him blushing a bit and feeling really awkward that someone would just stare like that. Then she asks, "Is something wrong?"
"No. It's nothing." He gets up and heads into the kitchen and starts stirring the soup he was making before she woke up. Now it was her turn to look at him, and she saw that he had brown hair and amber eyes that any girl could get lost in if looking at them for a long time. She guessed that he was also sixteen.
"Um…thank…you. For helping me. And sorry for any trouble I've done to you," The girl says quietly. Then she adds, "Oh. And sorry for screaming and calling you a pervert."
"It's okay. I guess. So what's your name?"
"My name? It's Sakura. Sakura Kinomoto. What's yours?"
The boy walks over to her carrying a bowl of soup and hands it to her. "It's Syaoran Li. SO, what were you doing in the rain? Did you get lost or something?"
Sakura is silent for a while and then replies quietly, "No."
"Then were you waiting for your family or boyfriend or something? Because I mean if you were, they're pretty much idiots leaving you to wait for them in the rain." Syaoran says gulping down a spoonful of soup.
"Not really. I wasn't waiting for anyone. To tell you the truth, I don't remember my family. In fact, I don't remember anyone from when I was little," she smiles a sad smile, "all I know is my name and that I've lived here for practically all my life. I know what school I go to, but when people come up to me and say 'Hi Sakura! What you've been up to lately?' I just stare at them because I don't remember who they are. My mind goes totally blank on me and I always have to ask them who they are. Then they give me this really strange look as if I was an alien from another planet."
"Sounds tough... So you don't know your family…Did you hit your head on something? Because by the way you acted when we met, I wouldn't blame you if you went and rammed yourself into a wall." Syaoran says in a playful way to try and cheer her up, but then he stops when he sees that he's just making it worse for her. "Sorry. Just trying to cheer you up. Poor effort. I know. So you don't remember anything? Do you think you have amnesia or something?"
"No. I don't think so. I feel fine. But its like, I feel like my head, and every single one of my memories are shrouded in some sort of gray cloud. And this cloud just won't go away. And because it won't go away, I can't seem to remember anyone. But every now and then, I see people and things that I believed happened in the past, in my dreams. But I still can't remember them because after my dream is over, I won't remember the person's name even if I do see them in real life. Sounds silly, I know. You probably don't want to listen to this do you? I don't blame you though, I'm just rambling on about my bad memory and you're probably thinking 'what a nutcase' right?"
"No, I don't really mind. I don't talk to anyone much nowadays."
"Why not?"
"Family issues. That's all."
"I see. But at least you can remember them right."
"I guess so. So you don't remember anyone? Not even one person?"
"I wish I knew even one person from before," she laughs a bit trying to sound cheerful, "But I just can't. No matter how much I try, I just can't remember anyone."
"So, I guess you probably don't remember me then…" Syaoran mumbles to himself.
"What'd you say?"
"Nothing."
There's silence in the room, and the only sound there is is the sound of the clock ticking. Sakura, who was looking down at her bowl of uneaten soup, looks up at Syaoran and says happily, "But there is one person who always tends to appear in my dreams. I have one reoccurring dream where I'm making a promise to a boy. A promise that when we grew up, we'd be friends forever. But I don't remember his name because his name is never mentioned. And usually whenever his name is said, I usually wake up, or I can't hear it. It's a weird dream, but I'm happy to see his face in my dreams. Even though I don't remember him. I'm hoping that he remembers me and that we'll meet each other someday soon."
"I hope so too. For your sake."
"Hm?"
"Maybe you should get some sleep," Syaoran says as he takes his empty bowl and puts it in the sink.
"Okay," Sakura says with a nod. She gets into the blankets on the floor and quickly falls asleep.
