Ah yes, yet another story. ...And you might think that I should finish my other stories first. Ahh...anyway, this story might be a little slow at the starting....but, all the same, please read it, and then review.
Enough of my crap then, let the story begin..........
--
Two figures were standing in front of the swing in Tomoeda Penguin Park.
"Sakura....... I think it's time we say good bye."
"......I know."
" You must understand- "
" You need not explain, Syaoran-kun. I understand."
" Sakura...."
One of the figures lifted her head.
" ....I had already expected it, Syaoran-kun. So you don't really have to say anything. Goodbye, Syaoran-kun."
And she walked away, not turning around at all.
The only figure left standing in front of the swing did not move.
He had thought that this break up should be difficult, and he was surprised that she wasn't affected at all.
He was happy that he was finally free from her.
And yet, Li Syaoran never ever imagined that he would regret dumping Kinomoto Sakura for another girl.

Chapter 1: Do I Know You?
-- *China *
Li Syaoran sighed. He couldn't believe that he didn't realize that Ming Yi, his girlfriend who was now his *ex-girlfriend *, was such a flirt.
He could just imagine what his sisters and his mother would say when he got home. " You just can't choose nice girls, can you, our dear otouto-chan?" His sisters would dig in. His mother would probably shake her head gently, and then proceed to her room without a word.
Sighing dejectedly, Syaoran made his way home.
-- * Japan *
20-year-old Kinomoto Sakura was going through a perfectly enjoyable life. Except the fact that she had no boyfriend, she was perfect. To the teachers, she was an excellent student who was polite, helpful and intelligent. To the guys, she was what every guy want in a girl --Pretty, intelligent, cheerful and popular.
[[Yes. At last Sakura-chan had return to normal her. ]] Daijouji Tomoyo, a raven-haired beauty and Sakura's greatest best friend thought. She smiled as Sakura chattered happily away as the two close friends made their way home from school.
Tomoyo was very relieved that Sakura, after that break up with Li-kun 3 years ago, was finally cheerful and happy. She recalled that terrible 1- year when Sakura had been very depressed and occasionally was in a trance. But then, the next two years, she had returned to the normal Sakura.
[[Maybe these two can be friends again.]] Tomoyo thought again. She had made plans with Eriol for this already and was very excited.
" Sakura-chan, I have to go to the post office to post a letter."
" Hoe? For who, Tomoyo-chan?"
Tomoyo smiled her little smile, " For a friend, Sakura-chan."
But alas, little did Daijouji Tomoyo know that a terrible thing had happened.
-- *China *
Syaoran groaned.
His sisters ignored his groans and continued on their lectures of choosing better girlfriends.
Syaoran groaned again. They had been chattering away since two hours ago, and they had yet stopped to take a drink. Besides that, they were starting to sound like little annoying children at the nursery yelling at the top of their lungs.
" - And so, otouto-chan, according to the researches we made from your numerous other break up with Chinese girls, we recommend you to choose a girl that has qualities........ JUST like Sakura-chan." Feimei ended, smiling sweetly at Syaoran.
" Sakura?! What has finding a girlfriend got to do with Sakura?!" Syaoran exclaimed, his face red.
" Aha!" His sisters squealed, smiled at Syaoran in glee and teased, " Our little otouto-chan's face is red!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Syaoran retreated into a wooden chair and began to find the floor interesting.
His sisters persisted. " Ne, ne, otouto-chan, wanna go visit Sakura-chan? Tomoyo-chan just sent a letter to you about going to Japan for the Tokyo University carnival." Fuutie said, smiling happily while Fanren giggled gleefully.
" UNN!!!" Feimei, Fanren and Sheifa squealed.
Fuutie continued, noticing that was Syaoran beginning to sweat profusely, " And she say that there is going to be a play at the carnival and she want you to be in it!"
" UNN!!!" His three other sisters agreed.
" Sssoo....." Sheifa added, waving a white envelope in Syaoran's red face.
" ARE YOU GOING, OR NOT????!!!!!!" His four sisters all exclaimed together.
Syaoran winced at the yell his sisters had made, toppled out of his chair and rolled into a corner, where his sisters easily cornered him. Syaoran looked helplessly at each of them, and then at his mother who had came in to see the fun, and then muttered, " Okaasan...help me..."
His mother, to his horror, giggled a little and said, " Feimei, you do your job. Don't worry about the money. I'll take care of it."
" Okaasan!!" Syaoran cried exasperatedly while his sisters squealed again in happiness.
" Okaasan, can we go? We want to see Sakura-chan, and Tomoyo-chan, and otouto-chan in the play!!" Syaoran's sisters all cried excitedly.
His mother nodded and Syaoran felt as though his mother had given him a death sentence.
--
Tomoyo waited impatiently at the airport for Syaoran's flight to land.
Finally, Tomoyo spotted Syaoran and was rather shock that his sisters was beside him, squealing happily.
When Syaoran's sisters saw Tomoyo, they dropped their bags painfully on Syaoran's foot and ran towards Tomoyo squealing happily.
" Tomoyo-chan! You look soooo beautiful!!"
" But she is still as cute as ever!!"
" UNN!!"
Tomoyo felt the urge to mutter, " Hoe?" but decide against it.
" Ano....oneesan...err...we can go now..and I think we should help Li-kun get that bag off his foot." Tomoyo muttered slowly.
Syaoran's sisters all turned around to look at Syaoran, who was trying very hard to lift at big brown bag off his foot.
Without any warning, his four sisters burst into peals of laughter and Fuutie took a photo of Syaoran with that bag on his foot.
--
The next day, Syaoran was transferred into Tokyo University while his sisters all found jobs to do.
When Syaoran was introduced to the class, all the girls squealed while the guys frowned. Syaoran scanned around the class and saw her.
Kinomoto Sakura.
Sakura wasn't paying attention to Syaoran at all, which, to Syaoran, was very odd. As he had expected, he was told to sit behind Sakura, and he spend the whole schooling hour staring at the auburn hair of Sakura's.
Tomoyo smiled knowingly while Eriol frowned a little.
--
" Ok, if there isn't anymore questions, I'm going to reveal the play we are doing." Hiragizawa Eriol, a handsome boy with short blue hair and was that same boy that had kept on annoying Syaoran since elementary school grade six, said smiling happily around.
Eriol turned towards Tomoyo, who was beside him, and told her to write the play on the board.
Romeo and Juliet.
The whole class starting whispering. Eriol continued, " We decide to go for something classical and original. Therefore, we choose the play 'Romeo and Juliet'. For those that doesn't know what this play is about, stay back after this meeting and I while explain it to you."
" As for the casting, we'll have a voting. All of you will write down the names of the people you wish to vote as a certain character and then put your vote in this box."
There was much whispering as the class began discussing about the characters. Eriol looked at Tomoyo, who winked at him and then went over to Sakura. Eriol then proceed to Syaoran, who was scratching his head with a pen and staring down at the paper.
Eriol peeped at Syaoran's paper, " Hmm...you put me as Romeo? Why, I'm pleased. And Tomoyo as Juliet. Hm.....good choice. What about Sakura-chan?"
Syaoran jumped at this and turned to glare at Eriol, " What about your votes, Hiragizawa?"
Eriol looked amusedly at Syaoran and said, " Me? Well.....you wouldn't want to know, Syaoran-kun."
Syaoran glared dangerously at Eriol, " I would really want to know.
Eriol was silence for a few seconds, considering something, and then he inhaled a little bit of air and then said, " You as Romeo, Sakura-chan as Juliet."
Then he close in towards Syaoran and muttered, " The whole class agrees, Syaoran-kun."
With that, he ran away from the red-faced Syaoran.
--
" Now......about Romeo And Juliet....I shall start on the story then."
" Romeo And Juliet is about this two family who were enemies against each other. Both families hated each other. There are two different families in this play; the Capulet and the Monticule; Romeo is from the Monticule family while Juliet is from the Capulet family."
" It started when the Capulet family were having a party. Romeo was persuaded to go to the party by his friends. Then he met Juliet and it was love at first sight."
" Then these two decides to elope with each other. But it failed. So Juliet decides to fake death. And before she did that, she told a servant to hand Romeo a letter saying that she is actually not dead, and that, to dig her up from the grave when everyone is gone. Some how or other, Romeo didn't get the letter and thought that Juliet had died. He committed suicide. Juliet, who found out that Romeo had killed himself, killed HERSELF too."
" Thus, this all ends in a tragedy."
--
After the meeting, Syaoran managed to catch up with Sakura, and he said stammering, " Ano....err..S-Sakura?"
Sakura turned and looked at Syaoran, surprised and said.
" Gomen nasai, but do I know you?"
If this was another death sentence, Syaoran would have die twice.
