Chapter 8 – Why?
.: Later, after school – Narrator's POV :.
"Hey Sakura!" Syaoran called out. Sakura turned around and stuck out her tongue.
"Come on Sakura! Why do you have to be so mean?" he continued.
"Because."
"Because why?" he asked curiously with a sly grin on his face.
"Because I felt like it."
"Felt like it? Why?"
"Simply just because."
"Why?"
"BECAUSE!"
"Why?"
"GRRR STOP NAGGING ME!"
"Well that's what you get for being mean to me."
"Hmph."
Syaoran stuck out his tongue mimicking what she had done before.
"Ugh, you are so gonna get it!"
"Try me. I bet you can't even catch me."
"Well it's on!"
"Ha! If you lose, you're cutting my front lawn!"
"What if I win?" Sakura said as she cocked her eyebrows.
"You won't."
Sakura dropped her books and Syaoran dashed away as soon as he could.
"Come here you little…!" Sakura said as she kept following not too far behind with her fists failing in the air.
"Is that the best you can do?"
"Not even close." Sakura replied as she sped up closer to Syaoran.
"Still not enough!" Syaoran yelled out as he sped down the hallway.
But just as he was about to turn left into west wing of the school, someone grabbed him by the collar.
.: Syaoran's POV:.
Oh shit!
"Mr. Li, running down the hallways…and Kinomoto!" the man said with a hoarse voice as Sakura trotted in to see what happened.
Damn, It's Mr. Kunoichi...I hope he's not in a bad mood...
"What a surprising combination," he continued, "detention for the both of you tomorrow after school. Oh, I'd also –"
"But Sir!," I interrupted, I couldn't let Sakura get in trouble because of me. Even if it was just a chance for me to be alone with her in a classroom…I mean…I can't…I could…but…"It was all my fault! Please don't punish Sakura." I blurted out.
Mr. Kunoichi looked at me with a pretty astonished face.
"Interesting…DETENTION! The BOTH of you! Now, GET OUT!"
I looked at Sakura with a sympathetic face as walked out; she was just staring meekly at me.
I mouthed the words to her: I tired.
She shrugged.
As soon as we were a 100000000 miles away from Mr. Kunoichi's classroom, I apologized to Sakura.
"Sorry."
"Hey, that's ok. Partially my fault too."
Huh? Why would she blame herself?
"I started it." I replied.
"No you didn't!"
"Yes I did!"
"NO!"
"YES!"
"NO!"
"YES!"
"Nn – hahahahahahahahaaaa!" I laughed hard. I don't know what happened. I just found it funny.
"What's so funny?!"
"Nothing."
"Is it my face?"
"No no no – "
"Is it my hair?!"
"No no no – " I said as I kept on laughing. "I don't know what came over me I just…felt like…laughing!"
"JERK!" she said while she turned around to leave.
"HEY! Come back here! LOSER!"
She turned around and shouted: "MORON!"
"UGLY!"
"GAH…YOU YOU YOU…FUGLY PIECE OF – "
"What the…"
Sakura covered her mouth, but it wasn't too hard to pick up the sound of giggles.
"Now what kind of word is 'fugly'?!"
"A word that describes you!" she said taking off her hand that was covering her mouth. She continued laughing.
She's finally smiling on her own…
I couldn't but smile, when she took off her hand. Her smile was radiant. Just too…I don't know how to say it…sweet?
I just forgot about everything and just kept staring at her laugh…until that is…
"SAKURA!!!"
I turned around to see an angry Tomoyo.
"WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?! OH KAMI! I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU!"
Sakura stopped laughing and her smile went down to normal mode.
"I've been talking with uhh…Syaoran…" she said while pointing to me.
"Well you have no time to be flirting around with boys! Especially when you're dressed in THOSE rags!"
I felt my cheeks burn up…HUH?! Burn up? But I don't even -
"My art apron and overalls are NOT rags!" Sakura yelled out.
"But they are not NORMAL clothes are they? They're for ART. ART!"
"But but – " she tried to explain
"No buts will make up for your lazy attitude! We've got some planning to do! You promised!"
"But but – "
Tomoyo covered Sakura's mouth with a piece of cloth, and pulled her away with an iron grip.
"Hope you don't mind me kidnapping her! Ja ne!"
"…" It all just happened wayyyyy to fast.
.: Tomoyo's House – Sakura's POV :.
"Ouff…" I huffed out as I was dropped on…a velvety floor?
"Sakura! Open your eyes goddamnit!"
I opened my eyes…Light purple periwinkle walls, dark plum fabric curtains, creamy white carpet…HEIN?! THIS ISN'T MY HOUSE!
"Where I'm I?!" I shouted out of fear.
"…at my house…" Tomoyo responded with a questioning face, "are you okay?"
"Yeah yeah…"
"THAT'S GREAT! Put on these! And this! Oh oh! And that! OH HO HO HO! THIS ONE TOO!" she said while throwing stuff out of her…closet?
"Holy shit! How big –"
"Is my closet? This isn't my real closet. I gaped at her. "Doesn't matter how big it is, 'cause you're here, to MODEL! Yes yes yes! Modeeeeel!!!!!!" she said in a somewhat, cheery tune.
"…" (-.-)'
"…OH OH and after this we gotta plan your posters, and – "
"Tomoyo," I interrupted softly not to raise her…weird temper…
"Hmmm?" She turned around to look at me while I was trying to keep my head up through the piles of clothes.
"can we do this one step at a time?" I asked gently.
"Oh but of course! OK ok! Take this, " she shoved me in her oversized closet throwing a couple of pieces of clothing, "and come out when you're done." She continued as she closed the closet door.
How I'm I suppose to change in here?
I turned around and saw a long mirror beside a small vanity. There were also a couple of bean purple bean bag chairs and a small chandelier hanging off the ceiling. This closet…was like…A WHOLE ROOM ITSELF!
"Sakura!"
Tomoyo's muffled voice echoed.
"I'll be out in a minute!" I yelled out.
.: Li Mansion – Syaoran's POV :.
I opened the back door and dropped my belongings to the floor. I looked around but I didn't see my mother anywhere in the kitchen.
That's weird…She's always here when I come back from school…
"MOM?! I'M HOME!" I yelled out seeing if she would hear me.
"Syaoran! I'm over here in the living room!" said the faint voice of my mother.
I walked out of the kitchen to the living room.
I looked up to see my mother, "Mom I was getting – ", and turned around to see…"father?"
What the hell is he doing HERE?
"Hi son."
"…"
"Syaoran, it be nice if you could be polite to your father."
Damn this, I'm leaving.
I left the living room without saying another word and ran up the stairs to my room.
.: Later that night… - Sakura's POV :.
"Oh my God! Gorgeous!"
"Can we stop now? It's been..3 hours!"
I was literally about to faint. Who knew changing clothes was such a hassle?
"Don't worry, you can call home, and tell them you're sleeping over for the night."
"But but but –"
"Shhhst! Try this little accessory!"
"Tomoyo! What about my homework and projects?"
"Sakura, is anything due for tomorrow?"
"Urr…"
"That's what I thought."
"Now spin around."
I gave up. I finally learnt that day, that you can't stop Tomoyo once she's started…
I tried twirling round in the stupid heels Tomoyo had given me to wear, but I couldn't control my balance and tripped over myself.
"Jeez…You need to learn…" commented Tomoyo as she smacked her forehead. "Ok I'll teach you. After all, I need you to beat up that Meilin BITCH!"
"…" I careful followed her, stumbling along the way, as she took me outside of her room.
I was wondering…why was Tomoyo so bitter with Meilin? After all…They both we're japs right? No, japs would never bring you home and make you model unless…
"Saaaaakuuuuraaaa?"
"HEIN?"
"Jeez, what were you thinking about, if you're so nervous of me killing you, relax, I would have done it sooner. Plus, we're friends right?"
She looked at me with sparkling teary eyes.
"Uh…yee..ah."
"See?"
She smiled at me.
"That's no fun! You're not going to attract attention if you don't smile! Man your smile would complement your beautiful eyes!"
Flashback
"You know – you have very beautiful eyes" he said…
End
"SAKUUURA?!"
"Huh?!"
"You're a total goof ball." She looked at me with a teasing face with her hands at her hips.
Why did I think of Syaoran so suddenly?
"Come Sakura! Let me show you how it's done!"
.: Li Mansion – Syaoran's POV :.
-Insert: Shut Up by Simple Plan-
Argh…It's been three freaking hours…
Since I locked myself in my room, I've done nothing…Although I get these urges to call Sakura. I don't know why, but I just feel like talking to her.
"-sigh- Maybe I should…"
KNOCK KNOCK "It's me! Feimei! Open the door Syaoran!"
I got up and opened the door.
"Hey sis'."
"Here, It's your dinner."
"Is…he still here?"
"Yeah. Syaoran, you shouldn't hold such a grudge. Mom's very happy. Happier than she's ever been."
"Whatever."
I closed the door and locked it again.
Beef stew...dad's favourite meal...
I left the tray on my desk without eating anything.
Why...
-End of Song-
KNOCK KNOCK
Great...
"What do you want Feimei?!" I said while walking and opening the door. "You're so – "
"Syaoran." My father was standing there with a couple of papers in his hand.
"It's LI to you."
We're standing so close...but yet, we're still so far...
"…Well then, Li. I found these university entrance acceptance letters. Which one have you signed up for? Princeton? Harvard?"
"I…haven't signed one yet…"
"WHAT?! THE DUE DATES FOR THESE FORMS ARE ALMOST UP! YOU KNOW YOU NEED TO SIGN UP FOR ONE OF THESE UNIVERSITIES! THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES ARE THE BEST! IT'S THE ONLY WAY YOU'LL GET PREPARED TO TAKE OVER THE LI BUSINESS!"
I couldn't believe it…after all this, it's still about his business.
"What if I DON'T want to!"
"YOU HAVE TO!" he said with an aggressive voice.
"WHY IS IT ALWAYS ABOUT THE LI BUSINESS? HUH? AND STUPID ELDERS?!"
I got so mad I just slammed the door and locked it for the third time today.
"LI YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR DESTINY IS!"
"FUCK IT!"
I jumped on my bed and covered my head with pillows.
WHY?! ARGH. LIFE IS SOOOO ARGH!
I punched the wall beside my bed and dented it. A couple of things fell from my haging shelf.
-sigh- It looks like I'll have to get that fixed…
I picked up my trophies, medals, and phone…
Instead of putting the phone back, I dialled a number.
BRING BRRRING
Huh? I wonder who's number I dialled...
"Hello?..."
"Hi. Uh…This is –"
"SYAORAN!"
"Touya?!"
"HIIIIIIIII!"
"Hey."
"I'm guessing you wanna talk to my sis'."
"Uh…Yeah."
"Sorry, she ain't here buddy." I felt a pang of disappointment.
"Really?"
"Yeah, she's sleeping over at her friends house. Tomoyo I believe."
"Oh. Right."
"But you can talk to me!"
"Uh, not right now Touya, soory."
"Aww, oh well, anyways, I'll see you around school!"
"Bye."
I hung up.
Do I call Tomoyo's house or not? It might be weird…me calling Sakura at Tomoyo's house? -sigh-...
I got up and called Tomoyo's house.
BRINNNG BRRINNNG
This is so weird...
I hung up.
