Please Daddy, I've Been A Good Girl
"The light that's in your eyes, like everyone wants it to be
Well can't you see that it must be this way
Who knows who's wrong or right, just as long as you're here tonight
Just like my mother, always taking my likings away
When nobody's watching us
I missed the last song
I blame myself for just standing there too long
I missed the last song
I blame myself for just standing there"
-Theory Of A Deadman "The Last Song"

The golden rays shined upon her perfect face. She closed her eyes and raised her arms into the breeze. The grass hugged her ankles and her white dress flew in the wind. Her lips rose up, and she smiled. Yuuki was finally happy…and free.

TUESDAY (NIGHT)
8:39
The horrid clock wouldn't show Sakura any other time, and oh how she begged it would. If only she could be somewhere else. But Sakura knew, this is where she belonged. She belonged to her father. She owed him so much, he didn't leave her. Not like her mother. Her mother left her. Didn't want her.
She deserved this.

8:43
Sakura laid on her bed, cuddled into her green down comforter. Why is it that when daddy was on his way home, all Sakura could do…was wait? Then again, it's not like there was anything she could do. She had friends, just there was so much they didn't know and she didn't want them to know anyways. She has her job, well had her job. Sakura didn't get along with the boss. She had her car. 2002 Ford Escort, yes not a great car, but it was good for her. Small yet spacious. She had her name painted on the back on the car. Big "SAKURA" right there in green, it was so she could find her car easier…plus it was a dare. But it's not like she could drive anywhere. Daddy would be pissed if he came home and she wasn't there.
Oh well.
Sakura turned to her nightstand and grabbed her cell…

Daddy…isn't…home? Why isn't he home? As Sakura sat on her bed, she wondered where he was. How weird was it that she would wonder where he was, when if he was here, she would be bleeding.
Sakura couldn't shake the feeling of her father not being home and wondering where he was, so she got up and went to the cabinet at the end of the hall. The same one which held all of the medical supplies. She reached up and grabbed two Tylenol PM's and went to the kitchen for a glass of water. She threw them into her mouth. Took a sip of water. And swallowed. She still had to wait for twenty minutes for them to kick in.

9:45
Sakura's eyelids began to drag. They wanted to close themselves and fall into another world. Her dreams. But her dad still wasn't home. Sakura was very worried by this point. Daddy rarely comes home late. Sakura rose and went to the cabinet again. Grabbed another Tylenol and took a sip of water then downed it.
9:53
So…hard. Must stay awake. Must wait for daddy. Sakura kept repeating such things through her mind, and sometimes out loud. But the Tylenol wouldn't let her. It was time for Sakura to sleep. For her to fall into her dreams, into another world.

WEDNESDAY
3:39
Sakura awoke to a vibration. It was her cell. She reached to her side table and grabbed her phone. It displayed "UNKNOWN CALLER". Sakura pressed ignore. "Stupid." She grunted, and returned her phone.
6:35
The sun barely shined through her blinds, but it still woke her. Sakura rose up and checked the time. Six thirty five. School started at seven thirty. She's got fifty five minutes. After getting dressed in her blue jeans and black sweater, which hung loosely on her due to it's big size, she went to her bathroom. Brushed her hair, brushed her teeth then walked out.
7:03
Sakura went to the end of the hall and knocked on her father's door. No answer. She went and got a glass of milk figuring that maybe he was out. After she finished her glass and put the cup into the dishwasher, she went back to his door and knocked again. No answer. Sakura shrugged her shoulders, grabbed her keys and backpack and walked out the front door. Her car was in it's place. Her father's wasn't. Now Sakura just figured he came home after she slept, then went to work before she woke. Throwing her backpack in the backseat, Skaura sat in her car, started it up, plugged in her iPod and drove to school.

10:10
It was the end of third period, Spanish for Sakura. Next was math…with…Mr. Kakashi. Oh no. He's going to want to talk to her after class. He'll be eyeing her all period too, seeing as she didn't come to class yesterday. And Sakura was royally pissed at him anyways, he called her fucking father for god's sake! She told him not to do anything or tell anyone…and what did he do? Go straight to the demon and give him more fire. Fire to burn people. People with pink hair and green eyes. GOD! As Sakura only had one minute till class, she decided to ditch.
It's healthy every once in awhile.

10:15
Sasuke seemed to notice that Sakura wasn't in math, yet she was in the first three. Kakashi seemed to notice she wasn't here either. What if she… no she wouldn't ditch. Sakura is a good kid and wouldn't do that. As class begun to start, Sasuke grabbed his backpack and left class with his teacher calling after him. Sasuke didn't care. Something is wrong with Sakura.
10:21
As Sakura sat at the 7/11 parking lot down the street from school and drank her Coke Slurpee, she saw a dark shadowy figure come into the clear. It was a man. Tall, dark hair and walking towards her, Sasuke? Then her phone began to vibrate. It displayed "SASUKE'S CELL".
10:21
Where would Sakura go? Home? No, she has her other classes. Maybe 7/11? She always did like her Slurpees. As Sasuke got into his car and started driving, he dialed her cell. It was ringing.
10:22
Sakura reached for her phone and pressed answer.
"Hello?"
"Sakura? Where are you?"
"I'm at 7/11. Why?"
"Well you weren't in class and you're acting very odd. We need to talk." Every word dripped with seriousness.
"Where are you?"
"I'm coming towards you." Sakura looked out her window and spotted that man again.
"Oh is that you right there?" Sakura got out of her car and started walking towards the man.
"Sakura?"
"Sasuke I see you. Do you see me? I'm waving my arm in the air." Sakura raises her left arm and waves while walking towards the man.
"Sakura? Sakura? Sakura!"
"What?"
"Sakura I'm in my car." As Sakura listened to Sasuke on the other line, the man came into view...
It was Daddy.
"Oh god."
"Sakura? What's goi-" Click.
