The air was
sweet. Li Showran walked down the side of the road, alone that night.
He continuously talked to himself , as his own words made
him red.
---
Li sat down, and
played out a scene from that day....
Li quickly noticed that Meilin had the
lazenboard. He scolded her, but did not notice that the fight card was ready to
strike him.
With a blink of an eye, Li hit the post
of the gate. His head, about to fall off its spine.
Sakura quickly came to see if he was
alright, as he saw Meilin quickly fight the Clow card.
Li warned Meilin not to get
into this, but she still continued to fight. She fell as well…
Why was she fighting for him…
Had his many insults
reached her yet?
Was she deaf…?
Still, even through her
struggle, her pain…
..somehow..she
still failed…..
Li watched, as Sakura used her card,
rather than her own wits to defeat power.
…and then
Sakura sealed it, into it’s rectangular prison. The card’s image appearing in
the front…..
and he also heard sakura’s words
to Meilin…
“At least you wore it
out…….”

Still, Li knew
there was another person in that person’s life…a person of which he could not
compare…
Yet, Li
thought to himself “I still have a chance”
In his hand, there was a small box, laced in ribbon, and tied very
carefully.
He sat
on the bench., waiting for that special person.
Where could she be?
Still, he pulled out his
recorder, and played a soft tune…
With the moon going up, the moonlight
shining in the vast, dark sky..
Hopes are acending, with all the
good-byes.
Expressing our love through all
our hearts…
Showing grief for those who
depart…
Listening to the bell’s gentle
chime…
Hearing the wind’s peaceful
rhyme…
Footsteps of the one you love
Holding the one that you belove…
It is all…
…within a day of
the life….
As he finished his song, he heard a silent clapping.
He looked
infront of him, and saw Sakura clapping.
“You
sure are very good at playing the recorder, Li…” Sakura said to him softly.
Li began to
blush, as he clutched the box with his
hands.
He quickly
thrust the box into Sakura's hands
“Ummm…this is…for you….” Li nervously said.
“Aww,
thank you Li. That’s so sweet…” Sakura said to him..
Still, Li’s nervousness had reached a highpoint…
As Sakura admired
Li’s present, he ran off…feeling like a complete failure..
Why couldn’t I say anything? He
continuously whispered in his mind….
Soon, his
legs felt tired, as he stopped for a rest.
He
saw Sakura’s smile in his head, and then started to have good, assuring
feelings…
She truly is the girl I like…. He said
to himself, his face becoming as red as a rose petal storm in the summer..
With a boost
of energy, he pulled out his recorder and started to play….
