Sakura's POV

There were three men chasing after me and I was running as fast as I could. But then, they managed to grab my arm. Then, one of them accidentally stepped on my Chanel heels. I turned to him furiously.

"Excuse me? NO ONE CAN TOUCH MY SHOES," I said, looking at the guy who stepped on my heels with the eyes of a lion. Oook… scratch that. A lioness.

Then, I flipped over that guy and kicked the other two on their head. As the other two stumbled on the ground, I pushed the shoe-stepper on the floor and pushed his head harder onto the ground, with my right hand stretching his right arm to the back, my knees on his left hand which was bent to his back and I was on top of him.

"NOBODY MESS WITH MY SHOES!" I told him.

"What is wrong with you, woman? They are just shoes!" that man told me.

"They are not just shoes! THEY ARE MY NEW CHANEL HEELS!!" I told him and then I kicked his back then, I ran away from them hurriedly.

As I ran a few bullets flew passed me. Suddenly I realised that I was holding a gun. I tried to pull the trigger but the gun seemed stuck. Then, I couldn't think of any other way to attack the gunshots back other than to throw the gun to one of the shooters. I was lucky that the gun actually hit one of the guys. He fell hard and I'm sure he was unconscious by when the gun hit his head. I was not sure how many of them were there chasing after me but I am sure they were more than four.

Then, I saw a silhouette of a man running towards her from the front. And he looked like Syaoran.

'It is Syaoran', I thought.

Suddenly, 2 men behind her managed to grab her arm. I, who had learned aikido martial arts, pulled one of the men's arms and twisted all three of them down in one movement. I was running towards Syaoran and then, a few gunshots were heard. One of the men tried to shot me but all of the shots didn't hit me.

Then, Syaoran took out his gun and shot that man's right hand which was holding the gun and that man let go of the gun.

Suddenly, another gunshot was heard.

"Run!" Syaoran told me.

Then, I looked at him. Suddenly I saw Syaoran fell down on his knees, his left hand clutching his chest. Blood spread on his white shirt. I quickly came to him and support him so he wouldn't hit the floor hard.

"Go!" Syaoran told me.

"No! I won't!" I told him, took his gun and shot at the group of men.

A few of the shots hit the men. A few seconds later, the police came and pointed their gun on the group of men. The group of men surrendered, defeated by the police force.

Then, I was in the hospital. I was walking towards Syaoran's room. He was no longer in the intensive care unit but he was still unconscious. I entered the room and I saw him lying on the bed peacefully.

"Good morning Syaoran", I said to the figure which was still lying on the bed, eyes closed and I was hoping that those eyes would open and look at me.

Then, I sat on the edge of the bed, just looking at him. After that, I looked at the medical monitor. I saw his heart rate was quite normal that time. So, I held his left hand. It was cold and it was getting colder. Suddenly, the monitor alarm beeped loudly.

'Oh my god. This is not happening', I thought as I looked at the monitor, his heart rate was decreasing.

"DOCTOR!!" I shouted from that room and pressed the emergency button.

Then, the doctor and nurses rushed into the room and one of the nurses asked me to wait outside. While I was on my way out of that room, I heard a long beep from the monitor.

"No, this is not happening. He promised me", I told myself.

"He promised me he won't leave me. It's ok, I trust him. He won't break his promises", I said to myself, standing on the other side of that room's door, hoping that Syaoran will survive.

'A Li will survive no matter what. Wait. Isn't that what mother told me? Why do his heart rates go down? His heart is ok isn't it? He was shot, not having a heart attack. How come I'm at the hospital? How did I get here? Why am I feeling dizzy? Oh man, I'm in a dream. Come on Sakura! Open up your eyes! I don't want to be in this dream anymore. Come on, wake up!' I told myself as I realised that I was in a dream. (A/N: remember the part when she was drunk and she said that she was stuck in a dream? Well, this happened to me most of the time in my dream. it is quite scary. i hate it when it happens. dont you?)

Normal POV

Sakura's eyes opened and she gasped for air. Her right hand was searching for Syaoran on the other side of the bed. Then, she turned around only to find that Syaoran was not there. She also realised that her pillow was damp.

'So it's true. It's not just a dream. I must go see him now', Sakura thought and she sat up.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. It was the little kids. They entered the room. Xuan Chi climbed the bed and sat in front of Sakura, so was the others. Then, he gave Sakura a bouquet of lilies.

"Don't worry, papa will be alright. We all know he will", Xuan Chi told Sakura.

"Yeah, he will. Thanks", Sakura said and she group hugged them.

With that, the children went out of the room and Sakura was getting herself ready to go visit Syaoran. Later, Sakura walked down the grand staircase and she looked at the vase full of flowers. Then, she noticed that there was something wrong with the flower arrangement in the vase. There was a huge chunk of flowers seemed to be missing from its place. Then, she looked at the lily bouquet in her left hand and she smiled.

At the hospital

'Maybe I should buy a cup of coffee first', Sakura thought as she walked past a coffee shop.

After Sakura bought 3 cups of coffee, she went out of the coffee shop, bringing the coffee in the tray and was going to Syaoran's room. Suddenly, someone stopped in front of her. That place was pretty quiet as no one was using that hallway at that time.

"Well, well, who do we have here. The goodie girl Kinomoto. Seemed you are still with him. Haven't you learned a lesson? I said stay away from Syaoran", Kay said.

"I am too tired to talk to you. Later", Sakura replied and she continued walking.

"That is not the way to talk to me, bitch", Kay said, stopping Sakura by grabbing her shoulder.

"Not important to me. I'm tired, go and find someone else to mess up with", Sakura told her.

Next, Kay smacked the tray which Sakura was holding and the coffee fell. Unfortunately, some coffee spilled on Sakura's Miu Miu flower design wedge heels.

"Oops! Sorry", Kay said mockingly.

"This time, you've gone too far", Sakura told her.

"Oh, really? How about you, stealing Syaoran from me?" Kay replied and then she pushed Sakura's shoulder.

"I did not steal him from anyone. He's not even yours", Sakura replied.

Then, Kay pushed Sakura on the ground. Sakura, who was still didn't have much energy, fell on the floor. Kay was on top of Sakura and she was strangling Sakura. To avoid being murdered, Sakura used all of her strength left to flip Kay aside, stretched her hand to the back and pushed her knees on Kay's back.

"This is what you get when you messed up with my shoes", Sakura told Kay.

After that, Kay pushed Sakura with her body and Kay strangled pulled Sakura's hair.

Suddenly, two men came and caught Kay. Then, Yelan came into the scene.

"So this is the real you huh, Ching?" Yelan spoke, helping Sakura to stand up.

Both Sakura and Kay looked at Yelan.

"This is not what you think it is. I can explain-", Kay said and she was cut of by Yelan.

"There is nothing more to be explained as I already know what you did to Sakura. If you do anything to her or anyone in my family again, you'll get something from me. You do know I could charge you on planning of murder, because of what you did to Sakura. So, don't you ever think of disturbing my family ever again, I warned you. Go now. You are not fit to be with my son", Yelan told Kay.

With that, Kay left that hospital.

"Thank you, mother", Sakura thanked Yelan.

"No problem. We are family, aren't we?" Yelan replied.

"You reminds me of mum", Sakura told her and she hugged Yelan tightly.

"We are best friends. You know, BFF. That's why", Yelan replied.

"Come on, I'm sure you want to clean your shoes first and then we could go to Syaoran's room", Yelan said.

"It's ok, the shoes can wait. Let's go to his room first ne?" Sakura replied and smiled.

"Are you sure you are okay with that shoes? I heard what you said about messing up with your shoes just now", Yelan said.

"Yeah, I'm sure about it. The shoes can wait", Sakura said.

So, both of them walked to Syaoran's room and they were followed by the two men who were Yelan's bodyguard.

At Syaoran's room in the hospital

Sakura and Yelan entered the room. All of Syaoran's nephews and nieces were there too. Some of them made a few origami of birds. Sakura walked towards Syaoran and she looked at him. Then, she looked at the medical monitor to see his heart rate and all.

'I'm glad that everything is ok. Glad that he is fine and his hand is warm', Sakura thought as she was holding Syaoran's left hand.

Later, the others were going to go back home.

"Sakura, are you sure you are going to be alright taking care of him all by yourself? You went back home after Syaoran was admitted and it was around 5 am and you are here again at 3pm. Seemed like you need more rest dear", Sheifa told Sakura.

"Don't worry, I'm used to have a little time to rest. I'll be alright. You can go home and rest now, you know. You have been here since 4 am this morning. You need rest too", Sakura replied.

"Ok then, take care. If you need anything, just call us, ok?" Sheifa said.

"Yeah, sure", Sakura replied.

"Just to inform you, Syaoran's bodyguards are here too. 4 of them. I'm sure you know them. If you need help or something, they would be glad to help you", Yelan told Sakura.

"Thanks, see you later", Sakura said.

And so, all of them including the children left the hospital.

Normal POV

'Where am I? Wait a minute. This is the dining hall. I'm already at home?' Syaoran thought as he sat on the chair but the chair seemed to be a little bit high for him. So he had to jump a little bit to sit on it.

"Hello brother, glad to see you're fine", a boy, who's age about 10 years old who was sitting on the chair next to Syaoran's spoke.

The boy had almost the same features as Syaoran.

"Xiao Meng? Is that really you?" Syaoran asked.

"Yeah, it is me. Why, you already forgot about me?" that boy said.

"No, of course not! How can I forget about you? You're in my mind everyday. I missed you. Where have you been? Why didn't you come back home? I've got no one to play with. It's no fun to play alone, you know", Syaoran said.

"I'm sorry, little brother. I've got to go that time and then I couldn't come back home. I'm sorry", Xiao Meng said.

"It's ok. I've waited you for so long and now that you're here, that's good isn't it? We can play together! I missed you so much!" Syaoran said and he hugged Xiao Meng tightly.

"I missed you too. Thank you for visiting me every time you come back to Hong Kong, Syaoran. I am very happy. You're the best brother I ever had", Xiao Meng said.

"I am your only brother", Syaoran told him.

"Yeah, you are. How are mother, father and our sisters are doing?" Xiao Meng asked.

"They are fine. Sisters are crazy as usual", Syaoran replied.

"Haha. Some things just can't be changed huh? You seemed happier now", Xiao Meng said.

"Yeah, of course, you are here now! There is no reason for me of not getting happier! I've been wishing everyday to see you and now you are here!" Syaoran said excitedly.

"But this is just for a while. I'm not going to be here for long. So do you", Xiao Meng told him.

"What do you mean? Can't I just follow you?" Syaoran asked.

"Of course you can't. There is a girl who's keeping her faith on you waiting for you. Plus, unlike me, your time hasn't come yet", Xiao Meng replied.

"Who's she? What time? What happened to me?" Syaoran asked, confused.

"You'll know soon enough", Xiao Meng said and he slowly vanished in the thin air.

"Brother, please don't go now. I want to be with you for a little longer at least", Syaoran said.

"I'm sorry, I can't. The time is up. Don't worry about me, okay. Be happy, go on with your life. And remember what you promised her", Xiao Meng said and he vanished completely.

Suddenly, Syaoran's eyes were blinded by a very bright light.

Normal POV

Sakura was looking at the monitor again. Suddenly, she saw Syaoran's heart rate was getting slower and the monitor was beeping fast and loudly. Sakura quickly pressed the red emergency buzzer to call the doctors. She even called for help and two of the bodyguards came into the room quickly. Then, the monitor's beep changed to a long beep sound.

'No, no. This is not real. There must be a mistake. Maybe the monitor is already broken or something and it hasn't been fixed yet. He promised me he won't leave me, right? It's okay. I trust him', Sakura positively thought.

Suddenly, Sakura heard the doctor laughed.

"Huh? Why?" Sakura asked herself.

Then, the doctor said, "There is nothing to be worried about. The pulse detector was detached from his skin. He's fine". The doctor smiled.

"Thanks", Sakura told the doctor.

A few moments later, Sakura was sitting on the edge of the right hand side of the bed.

"You better keep your promise otherwise I'll kill you. Okay, that's weird. Ha! Otherwise I'll kill you in the afterlife", Sakura told Syaoran who was still in the unconscious state.

Suddenly, Sakura's left hand was squeezed by Syaoran's left hand lightly.

"Oh my god. Syaoran", Sakura said.

Syaoran's eyes were blinking.

Syaoran's POV

I tried to open my eyes but the lights were too bright so, I had to blink a few times before I could see anything. Sakura was in front of me. Her hand was in my hand. I couldn't think of any word that time, so I just smiled at her.

"You woke up", Sakura said and I just smiled at her.

"Everything I want the world to be, is now coming true especially for me, and the reason is clear", I suddenly sang that part of the 'Top Of The World' song, sat up and looked at her and she smiled.

"It's because you are here, you're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen", I continued the song but not by singing and I looked into Sakura's beautiful and mesmerizing emerald eyes deeply.

"You seemed very happy. Glad to see you happy", Sakura told me but I know that she must be wondering why the hell I sang that song so sudden.

"That song crossed my mind when I see you here. Sakura, did I keep my promise to you?" I asked her.

"Yeah, you did. You kept your promise. Thank you so much. Thank you so much for saving me and I'm sorry you are hurt", Sakura told me and I could see that her eyes were already teary.

"Don't worry about it. Come here", I said, offering her a hug and she hugged me. Then, I pulled her closer and her tears fell down as she sobbed quietly on my shoulder.

'Thank you for waiting for me, Sakura', I thought.
