Prologue: And So It Begins..
This is a story of love.
Love is a funny word, though. A feeling that can happen fast—just like that—or grow over time. A thing that can push people to their limits physically and mentally. Most of the time, the word "love" isn't always clear; this I know. For, love is something always started and not always finished. Why this is, I have never quite figured out. Perhaps, we are all meant to love more than once in a lifetime? To be able to experience this feeling many times over. But, for all the things about love I cannot figure out, there is one thing I know for sure.

The rules of society in a regular high school; the responsibilities that came with popularity; and above all the humiliation I would take upon myself if I loved Syaoran Li.
I am Sakura Kinomoto. This is my love story.
