Chapter Six. Two Years Ago
Disclaimer: I do not, and never will, own Card Captor Sakura.
Harumi Senina raised her eyebrow at the trembling eighth grader. "Well? What did you find out?"
The boy looked troubled. "We-well…" He stuttered.
Her eyes flashed. "Hurry up! I haven't got all day."
"HiiragizawaisKinomoto'sfamilyfriendandLiisHiiragiz awa'scousinandDaidoujiisKinomoto 'scousintoo."
Senina rolled her eyes. "Very well. Scram!"
The boy, Naji, ran for dear life. Senina's lips curved into a smile.
She had waited long enough for this. Long enough, meaning two days. The three new kids had been attached to Kinomoto like glue. Senina had no idea what that meant. Until now.
Li, Hiiragizawa and Daidouji would be excellent tools to make her more popular (not like she wasn't already).
She liked bullying Kinomoto the best. Kinomoto was a pushover. She was gullible and naïve and innocent. Best of all, she didn't tell on Senina. She was the perfect dork to mess around with.
All Harumi Senina had to do was get rid of her.
Sakura used to be the most popular girl in school, believe it or not. She was pictured as sweet and nice to everyone. But then, that was two years ago.
Warm, soft hands covered the auburn's eyes. She froze, for a moment, and then relaxed again. "I know it's you, Kai."
She turned around to face him with a smile, only to be met with a grimace.
"What's wrong, Kai?"
His eyes were cold and impassive. "I'm breaking up with you."
The news shocked her. She didn't speak. She blinked after about three seconds. "W-what?"
He tilted his head. "Can't you get it into your thick head? It's over! It never even started, in my opinion."
"Wh-what do you mean?"
A soft chuckle could be heard from the distance. Harumi Senina stepped out of the shadows. "Hello there, Sakura."
"S-senina! K-kai i-is b-br-breaking up with me." Her tears were flowing freely down her porcelain cheeks. Her hands shot up to dab them away, until she saw Harumi's expression.
Senina was smiling.
"I know. That's because he's my boyfriend."
Sakura blinked. "Huh?!"
Kai sighed. "She told me bad stuff about you about a month ago. I didn't believe her. I told her she was judging you because everybody liked you. So," he started, "she told me to try being close to you. Luckily, you accepted to be my 'girlfriend'."
His explanation was so precise, with hand movements and air quotes. Sakura was devastated. "So you lied and cheated on me?"
"He played with you, more like it. You're just… not the person everyone thinks you are."
By then, people were crowding around the hallway. Whispers and murmurs were all around.
"Hey, everybody! Did you know that Kinomoto Sakura stole my boyfriend?" Harumi cried crocodile tears. "I-I saw them here by the lockers, flirting. It was just so hard to watch. How could she?!"
Everyone's eyes landed on Sakura. The intensity of their stares made her want to vanish right then and there. Come to think of it, Kai told her never to tell anyone that they were together. Right. It was all part of the big plan to humiliate her and kill her social life. Excellent.
Murmurs turned into shouts of insults and curses. Sakura turned and ran from the school. That was the day she became the school loser. She lost all her friends; they were never true. She lost all her admirers; they didn't stick by her at all.
She lost everything.
