AN: yes.I am writing yet another
story except that this one is CCS for you guys and you'd think I have nothing
better to do when in actual fact I have to get prepared for exams and so on . .
. I got this idea from an Indian movie and I'm ashamed to say this but I
couldn't understand much mainly because I don't speak that language but I could
figure out some stuff and this will follow the same type of plot. Btw. I don't
know what the movie is called.but when I find out I'll tell you [just for the
sake of knowing]. . . and I might change the ending 'cos I didn't like the
ending . . . much . . . it was ok. Just not that complicated. All those very
fluff loving ppl out there would like it though. No hassle. And I'm probable
boring you with my prattle so on with the story. Enjoy
Disclaimer: not mine . . . I love love love CCS and Syaoran . . . but then who
doesn't eh? NB. Everyone is eleven years old atm.

At
the airport
"Oh Syaoran, do you really have to go to Australia? Don't you like to live
with us any more?" Sakura asked with a touch of desperation, her lower lip
trembling, and eyes pooling with tears.
"Yeah Syaoran. Why do you have to go?" Meilin demanded halfheartedly.
"I already explained, Meilin. My parents have to transfer there because of
their jobs. Don't worry, Meilin. You know I'll miss you. I'll e-mail you,
ok?"
Meilin nodded, but her attention was quickly strayed as she spotted a group of
guys heading toward the café. Meanwhile, Sakura was upset at the thought of not
having Syaoran around anymore. He really was a good friend.
"But what about me, Syaoran?"
"Huh?"
" Aren't you going to e-mail me, too?"
"OH, that. Well, uh, sure - if you want -"
"Attention, passengers! Singapore Airline flight 767 for Australia is now
boarding at Gate 64! All passenger -" (AN: sorry if I stuffed this up but
I don't know exactly what they say. I forget ^_^! And note that [I hope this is
right] Syaoran stops at Singapore, then board Qantas airline for Australia.
Yeah!)
"Hey, Syaoran, don't you need to get in there? The flight will leave
without you and you have to go through all that checking of your flight ticket
and your passport and stuff like that right?" interrupted Meilin who
seemed a little eager to see him go, but Syaoran took no notice.
"Yes, that's right. Thanks Meilin. I'd better go. Bye Meilin - and
Sakura." He waved and disappeared into the crowd.
"I'll miss you, Syaoran." Sakura whispered, then turned to find
Meilin gawking at - what? Sakura searched the area and frowned. What had caught
Meilin's attention?
"Aren't those guys gorgeous ?!" Meilin suddenly gushed.
"MEILIN! Syaoran obviously cares for you and had just left
for Australia. You probably wont see him for years and all you can do is stare
at some guys ? !"
"Who cares? He's so annoying. He's an antisocial. Too moody, frowns a lot
and scares away any guy who would've asked me out. Especially the popular ones
and -"
"Meilin. He cares about you."
Meilin shrugged indifferently, then walked off, leaving Sakura gaping at her
receding form disbelievingly.
~*-*~*-*~*-*~
At Sakura's house.
"You told Syaoran you were going to get an e-mail address so you guys can
keep in touch, right?"
"Yeah"
"What was it going to be again? I know it's a beautiful one. At least I
think it is anyway."
"It's 'beautiful_petals'@hotmail.com (AN: I don't know of anyone who has
that addy but gomen if someone does have it . . . I just made it up), but I'm
going to change it. I don't like it anymore and it's not like I would take the
time to e-mail a guy who I won't see for years and years and years. Why don't
you take it and e-mail him back, so he'll think it's me? That way his feeling
won't get hurt, hmm? What do you say, Sakura? I know you like him a lot."
"I - uh - I don't think that -"
"Oh, come on girl. You can write it like it's really you writing, just
don't put your name on it or anything. That way you won't be lying or anything.
Come on . . . aren't friends supposed to support each other? And anyway - I
doubt he'll notice the difference."
"But we are different, Meilin. A lot."
Meilin shrugged. " People change."
Sakura knew he cared about Meilin and she didn't want him to get hurt -
"Well, I - ok," she reluctantly agreed.
"Oh thank you so much. I owe you one."
"Uh - no problem." I think
AN: ok. You guys HAVE to review this if you want me to continue - and a
question. Do you want me to write down conversations through e-mail or just
skip six or seven years down the road and bring in bits and pieces of the
conversation in between stories . . . like recalling them . . . and you can
criticize me if you want, if I can improve my story, the way I write and so
on.just do it gently ok? And, I changed it since everyone always makes it so
that Syaoran thinks of Meilin as a pest - this is the other way around. Haha.
