Chapter 11: Syaoran's Rubbish
So, there we were staring at each other in utter shock with me looking guilty as ever and Miss Meng, eyes widened wondering why the hell she could hear Syaoran's voice in MY apartment. Speaking of which, how did Miss Meng know where I live AND what is she doing here anyway?
Miss Meng tried to brush past me and storm into the apartment and of course my natural reaction was to block her way. So, here I am shoving myself continuously from left to right as I tried to stop Miss Meng from passing either way. If you didn't know what I was doing you may have mistaken that I was playing football with Miss Meng and fooling around with the ball! Anyway, after a few minutes, she got really irritated and grabbed me firmly by the shoulders and not letting me move a muscle.
"If you don't want to be sacked, move out of my way Sakura!" she demanded.
Reluctantly I stepped aside and watched as Miss Meng marched into my apartment, screamed and dropped the flask she had in her hand onto the floor with a thud. Syaoran who had a cheerful grin slopped over his face stopped eating his piece of pizza and waved.
"Hey there!" he greeted not the least embarrassed.
I coughed to attract his attention and then pointed at his nude self. "Oh," Syaoran said as he realized he was still wrapped in a bath towel. "Please excuse my dress sense today, I got locked out of my room." He shrugged sheepishly. "Hey, care for some pizza?" he asked her as he offered her his last slice.
Miss Meng was totally speechless and who wouldn't be! "You….you….…" she said, pointing at me and then to Syaoran. Okay, I don't know how many times she repeated the word 'you' but let's just say it took her a while to actually get to her point, which is round about….now.
"You….you guys live together?" she FINALLY blurted out.
Syaoran nodded without hesitation and I slapped my forehead. Busted!
"But….but…." she started to say. Oh, here we go again.
Five minutes later.
"But….but…but how's that possible?" she exclaimed. "Syaoran, you're so rich! Why are you staying with….her?" she glanced at me with a disgusted look when she emphasized the word 'her' I shot her a shocked glare and then crossed my arms annoyingly.
"Come, come," Syaoran said, sounding like a professor. "Here's how the story goes. You too Sakura, come sit down."
I rolled my eyes as I closed the front door and sat on the single armchair whilst Miss Meng sat ever so close next to Syaoran on the double couch. I bet you she wanted a closer view of Syaoran's body! YUCK! So, Syaoran filled Miss Meng on his situation whilst I sat there bored and filing my fingernails.
"Sakura, you weren't listening!" Syaoran pouted when he glanced at me briefly.
"Yeah, yeah whatever," I replied, waving off his remark. "I've heard it before."
"But you didn't hear the exciting part!" he declared as if he had just told us an amazing bedtime story.
"Syaoran," I started to say with a serious tone. "There is nothing exciting about your situation."
"Yes, there is," he said.
"No there isn't," I told him again. "Even my life is more fun than yours."
"Fine," Syaoran replied giving up. "But you do understand my situation right?" he asked, turning to Miss Meng who was now reaching for a tissue and blowing her nose.
She nodded in-between sniffs whilst I looked at her in disbelief. How dramatic could she get?
"Oh my goodness, that was the saddest story ever," she mumbled. "I feel so sorry for you Syaoran," she replied, throwing a quick glance at me. HEY! What was that suppose to mean?
"So how long are you having to stay here?" she asked.
Syaoran shrugged. "I don't know."
"Hey, how about I make a suggestion," she suddenly piped up. Or to my opinion she had it all planned! "Why don't you move in with me since my apartment has like four free rooms and complete luxurious service. I mean at least you don't have to snack on junk food for all your life," she retorted.
Syaoran scratched his head. "Well, I don't think that's necessary…." He started to say.
Upon hearing this, I was fuming inside! Although I detested Syaoran's presence I wasn't going to be looked down upon at this time especially not by Miss Meng out of all people! I got up from the single armchair and then deliberately sat in-between Miss Meng and Syaoran.
"Sakura, what the…" she started to protest.
"Look Miss Meng," I told her. "Although I'm not as 'rich' as you, I do happen to lead a perfectly normal life and I don't see any problem with Syaoran staying here. Right Syaoran?" I asked him for confirmation.
"Er….er…..….," he stammered, not knowing what to say. I nudged him in the ribs and gave him a look that read, ' Come on some back up please!'
"Oh! Oh! Yeah," Syaoran finally managed to answer. "Sakura, has been very nice to me." He nodded vigorously, but Miss Meng still didn't look convinced. I was going to add in a few extra points, but Syaoran beat me to it and everything went further downhill than I could ever imagine.
"In fact! We're even dating because we get on so well!" Syaoran blurted out absentmindedly whilst draping one arm over my shoulder. "Aren't we Ying Fa?" he asked happily, flashing me a grin.
"We are?" I shrieked.
"You are?" Miss Meng shrieked too.
"Yeah, we are," Syaoran nodded bashfully and I shot him a horrified glare. The nerve! In his world maybe but not mine! I flung his arm off my shoulder and looked at Miss Meng.
"It's not what you think….."
"Oh, and we're even thinking of getting engaged early next year!" he proudly announced as if all this was actually going to happen.
"WHAT?" I shrieked again, looking at him in utter disbelief.
"Now, now Ying Fa," Syaoran started to say whilst patting my back. "No need to get too excited." He let out a nervous laugh. I swear I could've strangled him right there if Miss Meng didn't happen to interrupt.
"Sakura," she said looking at me. "It looks like all this is new to you…" she pointed out, noticing my strange reactions.
Of course all this is new to me! It all happened to come out of Mr. Syaoran Li's puny little head! I smiled sweetly at her. "Well, I didn't realize our relationship was going THIS FAR," I replied through gritted teeth and at the same time glaring at Syaoran.
"I think it's a single crush thing," I told her. "I mean I knew NOTHING about this." I let out a laugh.
"You didn't know you guys were dating?" she looked at me queerly. Great, another reason for her to think I was incredibly stupid. "Hey, why did you set me up with Syaoran today if he's your boyfriend?" she asked out of nowhere.
I looked at her dumbfounded. "Uh…uh…." Well, because he's not my boyfriend? AHH! I couldn't say that now! Miss Meng hates people winding her up and I've done enough of that today.
"What dinner?" Syaoran asked confused. "Did I ask you out to dinner?" Before Syaoran could question Miss Meng anymore, I pushed him off the couch and made him go to the bathroom.
"You stink, go and take a bath!" I ordered. He looked at me confused. "PUH-LEASE, just for me," I requested sweetly.
Syaoran smiled goofily. "Okay!" Once the bathroom door slammed shut, I let out a sigh of relief.
"Wow," Miss Meng said. "He really listens to what you say."
I looked at her and forced a smile. "Oh yeah, he does." Oh no he does not I really wanted to say. If he did then I wouldn't be so tongue-tied around Miss Meng and trying to explain the dating, the engagement and now the dinner? HELP ME SOMEONE! I shouldn't have stopped Miss Meng from encouraging Syaoran to move to her apartment. Sakura, you made the wrong move girl!
"Oh yes about the dinner," I said, snapping back to reality. "Well, Syaoran wanted to talk to you about this contract and erm….…he wanted to talk about it during his free time," I lied. "If you know what I mean?"
Miss Meng shrugged. "Kind of." For a second there, I felt kind of sorry for Miss Meng as she looked down disappointedly. Life with Syaoran Li was now out of the window but not for long. Not when I could make things change drastically! HAHA! Yes, I can feel a fantastic idea brimming inside of me. My promotion is going to come someday soon, I'm sure of it!
"So Miss Meng, what brings you here?" I asked her.
"Oh, well I heard Syaoran wasn't well so I decided to stop by and treat him to some soup," she said, holding the flask she had dropped earlier on.
"I checked up his profile and found his….or rather 'your' address."
"Oh, how nice of you," I said. "Syaoran will be so pleased. I mean he was complaining all day how he didn't want to miss the dinner with you over his little cold," I informed her.
"Really?" Miss Meng answered, her eyes brightening.
I nodded. Hey, it's working. I'm starting to drive up Miss Meng's eagerness to win Syaoran over. YAY!
"I mean he's always talking about how professional you are and I always end up getting jealous," I continued to blab.
Miss Meng blushed. "Oh, well its my job to do my best."
I nodded.
"Anyway, I must be off now," Miss Meng suddenly said. "I'll see you both in the office tomorrow. Say good-bye to Syaoran for me."
"I will," I replied and showed Miss Meng to the door. Once she had left, I let out a sigh of relief and then stormed over to the bathroom door. With two cushions in my hands, I waited patiently for Syaoran to come out and when he did, I let him have a taste of SAKURA'S SUPER KICK and SAKURA'S MIGHTY PUNCH! HAI YAH!
"Take this!" I yelled as I chased him around the lounge. "This is for saying that I was being nice to you!"
"And for saying that we are dating!"
"And for saying that we are getting engaged!" I squealed as I slapped him once more with the cushion.
"HELP! MAD WOMAN ALERT!" Syaoran exclaimed as he tried to dodge my attacks. And he was so damn right! I am a mad woman and it's all thanks to him!
I continued to chase Syaoran around until the occupant below us rang the doorbell and told us to keep it down. And do you know what the old guy said before he left?
"Young couples these days, I never knew that love could get so violent and action-packed."
ARGHHHH, I just wanted the ground to swallow me up. I am NOT Syaoran's girlfriend and we are not a couple! Got it? GOOD!
