A short introduction: -
This story takes place 15 years after Eriol's death. Tomoyo is a very successful fashion designer. Sonomi is married to Fujitaka 10 years before this story takes place. Tomoyo has two kids, a twin, Hiiragizawa Hikaru and Hiiragizawa Hakuro. Yes, as you guess it, they're Eriol's. Sakura married Syaoran and they also have two kids, Li Syaofeng / Kaze, Li Syaoyu / Amane. Chiharu married Yamazaki and had a daughter, Miki, who is twelve. She's studying in Tomoeda's primary school, a cheerleader captain, very driven and very busy for a 12 year old, but not really closes with the twin. Naoko is still single and is a successful fiction writer and novelist. Rika married Terada-sensei and they have two kids, Erika is 14 and Yuuta is 11. Erika and Yuuta both study in a boarding school, reason behind why they're not really close with the twin. Touya and Yukito are living in Hokkaido and no they have no such thing as what people call as an 'intimate' relation. They're just very, very, good friends. Kero lives with Sakura in Hong Kong and are often seek by the Li clan for advices. Nakuru / Ruby Moon and Suppi / Spinel Sun remained in London, guarding Eriol's properties and did keep in touch with Tomoyo (not very often). I think that's about the entire introduction of the story.
Note 1:
It is advisable that you read Tomoyo's Secret before you read this fan fiction. Bear with the grammar and language errors in that fanfic. I was 13 when I started writing that and English is not my first language, it's not even my second language. It's actually my third language. But of course it is entirely up to you whether to read it or not.
Note 2:
I will post one chapter specials on the characters, so that you all will get a clearer picture of how they are (since I will and have been adding new characters).
Note 3:
My writing style is more in conversation form. So in order for you to understand the story, understand what the characters are talking about.
Note 4:
Read and enjoy...and review...flames are welcome...anything that can help me improve is good...
Disclaimer:-
No, I don't own Card Captor Sakura but I do own my own original character that I fabricated from my own brain. I know you all out there know who(s) I am talking about. Even though it is a really good thought that I actually own CLAMP, those ladies are seriously geniuses for creating these amazing characters (drool worthy, e.g. Hiiragizawa Eriol, Kamui (X), and etc). Enough of me ranting now go and read my humble piece of fanfic.
The sun is shining brightly in Tomoeda. A woman, around 30's with shoulder length hair step out of her limo. She walks into a boutique. The workers greet her happily and politely. And they were looking at her adoringly and with full respect. She seats in her office and starts drawing as her hands reach for a drawing pencil. An hour or two later, her office door is knock.
"Come in."
She said. A woman around 50's step into the office.
"You're working hard as usual Tomoyo dear."
The elder woman said. Yes, the woman who is sitting on her office chair is Tomoyo, Daidouji Tomoyo. A successful fashion designer, she has also won the Japan' s designer of the year for four years in the row and international designer for two years. They call her 'The Amethyst Angel' as she owns a pair of striking and beautiful amethyst eyes people could've seen. She herself is a ravishing woman. Her name was also listed in 100 most beautiful people in world (sounds too much? Not for me…for I think Tomoyo is a very magnificent person).
"Okasan aren't you suppose to be in the factory?"
Sonomi smiled.
"I have 30 minutes free. And I wanted to see what you're doing."
Tomoyo sighs.
"As usual, I'll cram in my office and create more clothes. Or did you expect to see me dating a man right now?"
The older woman chuckled.
"Well, that's one of my expectations."
"Sorry to disappoint you then."
Tomoyo continue sketching. Sonomi's expression change, she looks sadder.
"Tomoyo, why don't you go out sometimes? Say, like on a date?"
Tomoyo twitch her lips.
"Iie okasan. I will not go out on a date with anyone."
"It's been 15 years since Eriol's departure. You have your own life."
"Yes, and I have two kids to be taken care of and I have my own business. I have no time for man. Oh, okasan, how many years did you become a widow before you married Fujitaka-san?"
Replied Tomoyo coolly. The older woman blushes.
"Okay, I get the point. But please Tomoyo; I don't want you to follow my steps. Oh gosh, look at the time. I've got to go now."
Sonomi kisses Tomoyo's cheeks and walk out of the boutique. She stares at the picture frame on her table. It was a picture of herself, Sakura, Syaoran and a sly looking fellow with porcelain skin and dark midnight blue eyes (of course you guys know whom that is…and I called him sly-looking…because he is… and must not forget that he-is-such-a-HOTTIE!). The picture was taken 16 years ago when she was 18. She was studying in England that time and Sakura and Syaoran visited to tell her that they're engage. She takes the frame and rubs the picture of the blue haired boy.
"Eriol…"
The images of Eriol clouded her mind. She recalls the memory when she first met Eriol in England. When he saved her from John and his fellow friends.
Flashback
"Hi, young lady. My name is John. And they are Joey, Calvin, Ben and my pathetic twin brother, James."
"Do you speak English?""Yes, I do."
"Care to take a walk with us, pretty gal?"
"Yeah, it might be fun."
"Sumimasen but can I am excuse? I must go home now; my mother is waiting for me."
"Nope!"
"Guys, leave her alone. I'm sorry for their rudeness."
"Ah, shut up James!"
"If you don't like it, then just go home."
"Yeah!"
"Onegai, I'm very new here. I must be at home when it's dinner time."
"Yeah sure."
"Please John, just let her go."
"Not in this lifetime!"
"Why should we let go such a pretty gal? Give us some reasonable reasons."
"She's...she's...um..."
"She's what?"
As they were mumbling about Tomoyo a boy came near them and they were really surprise to see the boy except for Tomoyo, because she don't know who is that boy.
"Hey guys, it's the freak boy!"
"What are you guys up to now?"
"Oh, nothing!"
"We're just talking to this new girl here."
"Uhuh..."
"And, we're about to leave now."
"See you tomorrow at the university."
"Yeah sure."
"Sorry about the mess."
The boys leave Tomoyo and the boy there. The boy went towards Tomoyo to make sure she's all right.
"Miss, are you alright?"
"Yes, but I'm so scared..."
Tomoyo then cried as hard as she could. She then presses her face into the boy's chest. After a while she let the boy go after she realizes what she had done.
"Gomen. I didn't mean to do that, I..."
"Eh? You're Japanese?"
"Why, yes I am. Why did you ask?"
The boy seems to know her. He then asks her.
"Daidouji-san, is that you? Is it really you?"
"Huh? How did you know my family name?"
She looks up and saw a young man with dark blue eyes with a pair of thin glasses looking at her with a smile on his face. She was very puzzled of it.
"Sorry, but do I know you?"
"Yeah! It's me, Hiiragizawa Eriol"
Tomoyo looks really shocked to hear that but she just stay as calm as she could. Then Eriol helps Tomoyo to get up from the ground and walk her to her apartment.
"Wow, I never thought that I would be meeting you here after six years."
"Yeah, I thought that too. So, why are you here Daidouji-san?"
"I'm here to register myself...Oops, we're here. Thanks for helping me back there; okay I'm going to go upstairs now. Hope we'll meet again, ja, Hiiragizawa-kun. Do come to visit me here when you're free."
"Hai, ja."
End of flashback
Tomoyo curled her lip. She put down the frame and stares at it bitterly. She sighs and continued her work.
Review…flames are very much welcome…suggestions and ideas are also welcome….
