Sakura opened her eyes, waking, with ease, to the gentle sunlight flooding through her window. Lifting her head from the pillow, allowing the covers to slide off. Rubbing the sleep from her eyes as she walked towards the bathroom, she let her mind wander to the fact that she hasn't had to deal with the cards in a long time, that business was over long ago though. All tests were completed and done and she was no longer considered a cardcaptor; there was no longer a need for it. Although, she still needed to keep after the book, for obvious reasons. Even if there were no more disasters to take care of, she still felt different. She had to admit she did miss the adventure of chasing after the cards, she learned to ignore the feeling and just enjoy her free time; it wasn't so hard to forget her friends. Even if many of her close friends had left a few years ago, she still had Rika and Chiharu. She still found it depressing that she would never get to see Syoaran again. Though she also missed Kero and Yukito, Whom without a mistress to command them, were no longer able to help or visit her. There was still Tomoyo, which would brighten her mood. Not many of those who had helped her gather the cards were still around, as fore mentioned, they had left several years ago. Kero and Yukito, who has taken the role of Yue, had been sealed back in the book along with the cards. As for Syoaran and Meiling, they had returned to their home in Hong-Kong. Even with all the experiences they had shared everyone had left as quickly as they had arrived.

Replacing the toothbrush, she gazed to the clock behind her. The glowing red digital display read 10:23. 'I'm late…oh well'. Pushing these thoughts away for now, Sakura went to the kitchen downstairs to the kitchen. At least she still had time to eat, considering it was the beginning of summer. She saw Touya making something for himself. She had to work her way around him to get to the bowls and then went to the cupboard. After digging for a minute or two, she was finally able to find the cereal. As she was pouring her milk, Touya finally noticed her.

"Hey squirt." Said Touya.

"Don't call me squirt!" she protested, "I'm going to be in 7th grade! I'm not a kid anymore."

"Yeah whatever squirt, just make sure to call Tomoyo after you finish

your breakfast okay?"

"What?! She called! How come you didn't tell me?" Touya laughed at her before saying.

"'Cause you were sleeping and we all know how you get when someone wakes you up." He kept laughing. Sakura only glared back at him then put on a phony smile that was actually more of a threat, then a smile.

"So what did you make today squirt?" Touya knew that he was bugging her with his constant barrage of stupid comments

"For your information I made a bowl of cereal" she said proudly.

"Oh classy." Remarked Touya. She stuck out her tongue and promptly ran up to her room, locking the door. She had nothing to do lately, she was really quite bored. She knew that Tomoyo wouldn't let her down. Just before she could pick up the phone to dial, it rang. She subconsciously yelled that she got it.

"Hello" she said

"Hey Sakura" said a voice through the phone.

She thought for a moment. He sounded familiar, but she couldn't quite place it

"I'm sorry, who is this?"

"You don't know?" Came his reply.

Something in her mind clicked.

"Oh my god, is it really you?" Cried Sakura. "This is Syoaran isn't it?"

"Of course it is" Sakura was completely overjoyed to hear his voice again. To think, she hadn't seen him in several years. She had missed him dearly, she desperately hoped for his return, but even a phone call was enough to contend her. She couldn't fathom what would make him call her, but it didn't matter. What could have caused…

"Sakura?"

"How come it took you so long to call me?" Syoaran paused for a moment. Sakura couldn't stand still, the silence was killing her.

"Well I never had any good news until now."

"Because you didn't have any good news…"

"Well…Sakura, I'm coming back."

The phone dropped to the floor.

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-

Sakura: you didn't have any good news? What kind of crap answer was that?

Syoaran: don't look at me! This guy wrote it!

Me: oO; you guys wanna write it then?

Syoaran and Sakura: yes.

Me: err… too bad! My story!

*Syoaran and Sakura rush author and fighting ensues*

*Tomoyo walks up to camera*

Tomoyo: *sigh* R&R please, thanks.
