Chapter 9

The Plan of Hope

 A week had passed since the fashion shoot. Sakura was still angry at Leo and woulndn't speak to him. Tomoyo presented her resign and began to work on her wedding preparations. The wedding is going to be held in Hong Kong.

Syaoran, Eriol, and Meilin were in the living room talking.

" So Meilin, you understand what to do? " Asked Syaoran.

" For the million time, YES. " Meilin answered annoyed.

" Eriol are you sure Tomoyo knows what to do? "

" Yes. " Eriol said getting annoyed as well.

" Ok. Lets get started. " Said Syaoran.

Both Meilin and Eriol left the room. They needed to do their part of the plan.

" I really hope this plan works." Said Syaoran softly.

In Meilin's room, she was looking threw her address book. " Found it. " She said. She picked up the phone and started dialing.

" Hello. " Answered someone from the other line.

" Hi Sakua how you been? " Meilin asked.

" Fine how about you? "

" Fine. I was wondering if you wanted to go eat dinner with me? "

" When? "

" Tonight. "

" I don't. " She said doubtfull. " I'm leaving to Japan tomorrow and I need to get somethings ready. "

" Please. " Begged Meilin. If Sakura didn't accepted then everything would go down.

" Alright. " Said Sakura.

" Thanks. Then I'll see you tonight at this address ( She gave her the address. ) at 9:00 P.M. "

" Why not at a resturant? "

" Because I want to show you my apartment. You and I always had a lot in common and I want you help choose somethings to redecorate. " She lied.

" You don't live at the Li Mansion anymore? " Sakura asked.

" No. I moved out 2 years ago. " She lied again.

" Ok. "

" Alright I'll see you then. " Meilin hung up. " Well part one of the plan is done. "

Eriol's Room

" So Tomoyo you have everything ready? " Asked Eriol.

" Yup, from the clothes to the make-up. " Tomoyo responded.

" Remember, Sakura has to arrive to that dinner no matter what. "

" I know. "

" So how are the preparations for our wedding going? "

" Marvelous. In a month will be able to get married." Tomoyo said happily. Finally her dream will come true.

" I can't wait. "

" Me neither. "

" you know what I really can't wait for? "

" The honeymoon. "

Tomoyo started to giggle. " Maybe I'll give you a preview tonight. "

Eriol sat on his bed. " Really. After Sakua leaves I'll go see you. "

" Remember I said maybe. " Said Tomoyo, but she knew she would do it.

" Tomoyo. "

They when on talking about what would they do tonight. Later at the Hotel.

" Sakura hold still. " Said Tomoyo. She tried to put some make-up on her face, but Sakura kept on moving.

" I don't understand why you wnat me to wear so much make-up. " Said an impatient Sakura.

" Because this will be the last time you see Meilin and I want her to have a good memory of you. "

" The only memory she will have will be of a clown. "

" There I'm done. " Tomoyo handed Sakura a mirror. " Look. "

Sakura tooked the miror and looked at herself. The black eyeliner made her emerald eyes stand out even more. And the pink lip stick made her lips morea atractive. She has a bit of powder on her chicks. She was wearing a black sleeveless dress. With one side open. The dress showed her perfect figure. She had black heels to go with the out fit.

" I look really atractive. I son't think Meilin would want to see me so atractive. " Sakura said annoyed.

" You don't like what I did, do you. " Tomoyo put an upset face.

" No I didn't mean that. " Said Sakura trying to get Tomoyo out of her sadness.

" This is probalby the last time I get to dress you. So I wanted to make you look pretty. " She said really upset.

Sakura started to feel bad. " Ok, do what ever you want on me. "

Tomoyo put a big smile. / It always works. / " Ok. " She started to do Sakura's hair. She made it into a bun and left in each side of her face a lock of hair. ( Just like in the show. ) Then she put some perfume on her. It smelled at cherry blossom. " Your ready. "

Sakura looked at her watched. " I'd better hurry or I'll be late. You and I know Meilin's temper so I better hurry up. "

" Ok. "

" Have you seen my cell phone? "

" No." She lied.

" I wonder were it is. " Sakura said as she searched her purse again.

" Look you better fo. I'll look for it later. "

" Thanks. " She grabbed her purse and left.

Tomoyo took out from one of her pockets a small silver cell phone type LG ( Like mine. ). " Well there will be no one disturbing you tonight. " She said as she turned it off. She picked up the phone and started dialing.

" Hello. "

" Part 2 is done. "

" Thanks. " And hung up.

Taxi

" Can you take me to this address? " Sakura asked as she handed him the piece of paper.

" Of course. " Said the Taxi man. " Your the famous model Sakura Amaya, right? "

" Yes. " Said Sakura.

" I am so honored to meet you. You know what? You look a lot like Mrs. Li. " Said the Taxi man.

" Mrs. Yelen Li. " Said Sakura.

" No. The other one. The one who is Mr. Syaoran Li's wife. "

/ Doesn't this guy know that I divorced Syaoran 4 years ago? / " I don't know. " Said Sakura.

" Her name is also Sakura, like yours miss." Said the Taxi driver as he drove. " But something happened 4 years ago. Suddenly she just disappeared. "

" Oh. " Was the only thing Sakura could say.

They finally arrived to the apartment building. Sakura wanted to pay the man, but he said no. That it was free. She thanked him and got off the taxi.

Sakura got inside the elevator and went to floor 6. The apartment number was 610. It was the last one in the hall. You could tell that this apartament are very expensive.

She reached the apartment door and knocked, but no one answered.  The door was open so she pushed it.

" Meilin. " Said Sakura, but no one answered. She went in. Sakura looked around and saw a dinner table set for two. It looked very beautiful and very romantic. Sakura didn't get what was going on. ( Are you? ) All of the sudden she heard the door being closed. She turned around and saw the last person she would expected to see. " Syaoran. "

Author's Note: This chapter is dedicated to September 11 and to all the people who lost someone that day. My condolence to all.

Will the plan work? Maybe I'll be able to put another chapter in the next 3 days. It is going to be Independence Day next Tuesday so I got two days off from school. - _ -
