My Love, My Life - 12
*Flashback Last night*
Author's POV
Sakura walks pass every shop she knew, under the rain. Pass the coffee shop. The best bread shop next to it. Walk even further. She stands for a moment in front of nail art shop. She shakes her head and keep walking. She feels her life right now is really unexpected. She doesn't know where to go.
"Hey Sakura!" She turns around where Mr. Yazaki waves his hands to her.
"Hi..." she even try so hard just to smile.
"What are you doing here? It's midnight, my child. You want to come in?"
"Ah, I move out. Thanks for the offer but my friend picks me up later over there." she points out to the post office building. She lies. She curses herself, she's been lying to all the people who are good to her. She feels sorry too.
Mr. Yazaki looks at her in doubt. "Are you sure? At least you can bring this umbrella. You are wet, my dear." He stands up and offers the umbrella to Sakura and she takes it. "Thanks.. I give it back to you tomorrow."
"You don't need too. As long as you are not wet. Please use it as long as you want." He goes inside the shop and hands her a hot plastic and a straw, it's a hot green tea. "Here, bring this. I'm sorry I have no cup with cover on top. If it's okay with you..."
"Thanks a lot. I appreciate it so much. Oh I gotta go. My friend will be waiting for me." She waves goodbye and smiles to Mr. Yazaki, keep walking.
Sakura's POV
I walk into this empty street. I don't know where my feet takes me too. Why this is happening to me?! I've been in this situation before. But this time it happened too fast for me. I take a sip of the hot green tea.
Suddenly I hear footsteps behind me. Oh God. Please protect me. I beg you. I keep walking. The only place I can hide is in the park. I rush myself a little. However, the footsteps keep following me.
As soon as I reach the park. I try to walk faster than before. This is bad. Nobody is here. Oh God. Please help me.
I run and run. The footsteps won't stop hunting me. Getting closer and closer. A pair of big hand comes from behind, cover my mouth. Prevent me from screaming.
"What are.. Mmmmppffhhh..." I am not strong enough to let go myself. He is too powerful. I can smell alcohol. I want to scream, but I can't. Please someone.. Anybody..!
He drags me to big bush around the gazebo. He pushes me to the green grass. He shows me small knife to me, he smirks. "No.. Please.. I beg you. You can take anything from me.. But please let me go." I see a middle-aged man look down on me.
"If you stand still, I let you go. Just don't scream, my dear." he strokes my hair, I slap his hand, look at him, disgusted. He swings the knife towards my hand. I can't scream, his big hand covers my mouth. Before I know, he rips of the sleeve of my pink jacket. No... Don't do this. He hits me few times with the other hand.
All of a sudden the idea pops up in my head. I kick his stomach twice very hard, he falls back. I don't know where I get that strength from. Luckily I'm strong enough to run and run, not bother to look back.
I don't care about anything, but MY LIFE.
Not to care about my bag, my shoes. I just run to wherever I can go. I find a very big bush behind this long bench. I hide there. Besides, I don't think that man following me anymore.
Quietly, I wince every time the rain drops touch my scar on my hand. It's bleeding. So I rip my dress to wrap on that. "Sorry, Tomoyo. I have to do this."
I don't know how long has it been. But I let myself sleep under the rain.
*End of flashback*
*At the Park*
Author's POV
The three of them finally can catch up with other people. Hear them whispering to each other. Lots of people gather up in a spot. Near the long bench. Few people bring out the little body out from the big bush. The figure helplessly lay down, not moving an inch. They start asking questions.
"Who is she?"
"She looks horrible."
"Do you know her?"
"What was she doing here?"
"Where does she come from?"
"Is she dead?"
"Excuse me. Coming through." Tomoyo makes her way with Eriol and Shaoran. She gasps.
"OH MY GOD! SAKURA!" She kneels down beside her best friend, crying.
"Miss, do you know her? I think she's having fever. She's burning." one of the old man who helped to move Sakura's body earlier tells Tomoyo.
Sakura's POV
I can feel my body has been pulled up by few people. I can't open my eyes. I feel hot. Burning. Oh please... Don't let me die.
No.. Please.. I can't hear their voice clearly, it's faded away.
Shaoran. Tomoyo.. Eriol.. Somebody!
