Second Chapter: " Missing You.. "

Brief Summary: 5 years had already gone by since the very day in which Tomoyo Daidouji-Hiiragizawa became simply Tomoyo Daidouji once again. A sudden strange emotion filled her heart. She is standing in a place for both of them were once special. When she turns her head she sees someone. Who would it be? Read on to find out more.

5 years had passed. 26 year old Tomoyo Daidouji, formerly Mrs. Tomoyo Daidouji-Hiiragizawa, Now a co-owner of one of the best pastry and cake shop in all Tomoeda. Living her best life with her beloved cousin and co-owner Mrs. Sakura Kinomoto-Li. (A/N: hai! Sakura and Syaoran are married and now are blessed with a lovely 8 year old daughter named Nadeshiko KInomoto Li, a cheerful and energetic child just like her parents..hehe..)

Syaoran is currently a College professor, teaching at the same school Sakura's father was teaching and of the same subject as well, archeology. Both the son-in-law and father-in-law do excavations together.

' Cherry blossom cakes ' was the name of the store, with a huge sakura flower as a trademark outside.

" What a lovely day, isn't it? " Sakura inquired looking at Tomoyo who is busy with putting icing in the chocolate chiffon cake.

" Hai.. Truly a lovely day it is. How's Syaoran-kun? " Tomoyo asked while carefully arranging harden sakura flower petal icings on the now chocolate covered cake.

" Very busy as usual, everyday he spends lots of hours studying his lectures and excavations." She sighed in worry.

" I remember otousan doing the same back then I'm very worried because he doesn't get enough hours of sleep and food to eat when he is working.." She added.

" Shimpai shinaide, Sakura-chan. I know Syaoran-kun would not make you and Nadeshiko-chan worried. You know how caring he is in regards of you two.." Tomoyo said tapping Sakura's shoulder, easing her beloved cousin's worries.

" I guess so.. Tokorode Tomoyo-chan how's your blind date the other day.." Sakura asked with curiosity in her words, looking at Tomoyo waiting for answers.

Looking at Sakura she already knew that her cousin would not stop until she tells her the truth.

Tomoyo sighed.

" I rejected it. " She said.

Sakura just blinked. She was startled by her cousin's statement. The blind date Sonomi Daidouji offered was rejected. She knew how Tomoyo's mother wanted everything her way, especially for her only daughter.

" I told mother that I would never gonna entertain any blind dates and suitors anymore. I'm tired of it. " She said.

Tomoyo stopped and looked at Sakura.

" And mostly men from those blind dates didn't passed my standards." She added.

" Sou ka. Naruhodo ne.. So Tomoyo-chan what kind of man do you prefer for a date then?" Sakura inquired looking at her with more curiosity than before.

Tomoyo was suddenly taken aback by Sakura's sudden question. ' What kind of man do I like? ' she thought. And suddenly a picture of a handsome dark blue haired and cerulean eyed English young man with glasses suddenly pops out her mind. And suddenly she doesn't have the courage to answer Sakura's question, she gently shook her head.

Sakura just looked at her cousin's face with concern. She already knew what's on Tomoyo's mind right now.

" Would you want to send him a card or a personalized letter? I'll have Syaoran send it for you. I knew he still has communications with him." Sakura asked still looking concern for Tomoyo.

"Daijoubu da yo, Sakura-chan. That would be nice but I guess it's unnecessary. It's not about pride or guilt. It's just that I wanted fate to decide for the both of us.." Tomoyo stated. Feeling of gladness by the honesty her words are saying.

" But still for another time I wanted to see him once again.." Tomoyo added while looking at Sakura smiling.

Meanwhile at the Tomoeda elementary school.

" It's nice to see you again. It's been a long time. How are you now? Terada-sensei inquired to the young 26 year old blue haired cerulean eyed English man in front of him.

" It's good to see you too Terada-sensei. Indeed it's been quite a very long time. 5 years it has been since we last saw each other.." The blue haired English man said while looking at his former elementary teacher and now would become his co-teacher.

" Hiiragizawa-kun, It is truly a surprise to know that you've ended up becoming a teacher as myself. It truly suits you. Intelligent and talented persons like you is needed in a profession like this.. " Terada-sensei added.

" Thank you for the compliment sensei. I really appreciate it.." Eriol answered.

" Let's go to the class that you will be assigned to. The children is probably waiting for you.." Terada-sensei said while leading Eriol to his assigned class.

5:00 p.m., Cherry blossom cake shop

" Would you be alright if I left you here just by yourself.? " Tomoyo asked as she unties her apron.

" Hai.. I'll be alright. Syaoran would be coming from work and also Nadeshiko is here with me so don't worry.." Sakura said reassuring Tomoyo.

" Okay, If you say so. I'm sorry if I have to go. Mother is having some important guests coming and needs my help.." Tomoyo said putting the apron in hand on the counter table and slowly exiting the door.

" It's alright. You better hurry now. You know how Aunt Sonomi panics whenever some things are not in place.. Bye.. Mata ashita.." Sakura said waving her hands for goodbye.

" Bye bye Aunt Tomoyo.." the little girl Nadeshiko said while waving her hands as well.

"Bye.." Door shutting.

" Okaasan, I hope Aunt Tomoyo would smile again just like before she seems to be very sad lately.." Nadeshiko said while slowly eating a slice of strawberry fruit cake in front of her.

" I hope so too.. I miss her smiles.." Sakura said while caressing her child at the back..

" By the way okaasan, There is a new teacher at school but he is just going to be a substitute for a teacher on leave. He said he is from England. He is quite handsome too and probably the same age as otousan. He has a very difficult surname..

Hiira..Hiira.." the girl said struggling from the last syllables of her teacher's name.

"From England.. Hiira.. don't tell me It's Eriol Hiiragizawa…" Sakura said startled by the child's sudden statement.

" Yes that's it..! Eriol Hiiragizawa it is.." said the child happily.

"Eriol's here. Eriol's back. Tomoyo..!"

Penguin Park

' Sadness. No. Emptiness. Probably. ' those were the words that were playing on Tomoyo's mind as she trace her way to the lovely and memorable Penguin Park.

She stops at the very center of the park where the big penguin figure is located. She draws herself closer to the figure. She reminisce every memory she, Sakura, Syaoran and Eriol had shared in the very place that she is now standing.

The Cherry blossom trees of spring. The fresh summer breeze and cicadas at the warm night in summer. The orange-brown leaves blown by the wind and scattered in autumn. And the cold pure white snow of winter. All season, all the time they were there, sharing happy memories together.

Suddenly she felt heavy on her eyes. She felt heavy as well on her heart. She grabs her chest. It is painful inside. Like thousands of needles piercing her within. And suddenly warm droplets of water came down her eyes flowing on her cheeks continuously.

Strange emotions conquered Tomoyo's being, deeply unexplainable in words. But one thing she knew. She can comprehend why she is feeling this kind of emotion inside.

" Eriol.." she whispered almost liked a cry.

And suddenly a sudden familiar voice she heard from behind.

" Tomoyo..!" He said, calling her name.

Tomoyo turned her head, shocked. And suddenly her eyes were conquered by the bright color in comparison of the sky.

Blue. Ao.

She continued to shed tears. Uncontrollable, as her eyes stared at his face.

^_^ OWARI..!
