Oh, and Tomoyo and Sakura have a conversation in Japanese. If you want reference, she the ending of the fic, I have a chart to show you what they mean.
START HERE!
"Its too quiet."
Sakura sighed. No one was home. Ever since Touya married Yuki
and got a house in Kyoto, nothing had been the same. Father worked
late nights. Syaoran was in Hong Kong, even though she called
him every night to tell him about her day. She was beginning to
hate summer vacation.
At least she still had Tomoyo.
But for how long?

Click,"Konnichiwa, Tomoyo desu."
"Tomoyo-chan! Sakura desu!
"Ah! Sakura-chan! Genki desu, ne?
a pause.
"Ie, Tomoyo-chan."
"D...doushite?"
"I'm lonely, Tomoyo."
"Sakura..."
"Tomoyo-chan, could you come spend some time with me?"
a pause.
"N..no, Sakura."
another pause.
"No?"
"Sakura, I...made plans for today. Gomen nasai."
click.
She was alone again. A tear rolled sown her cheek, and she
threw down the phone.
"NO?!"
Sakura toppled on her bed and sobbed.
"Tomoyo-chan...said....no......to me...."
Sakura layed on her back, looking at the ceiling.
Tomoyo had never saud "no" to Sakura before.
In fact, Tomoyo had done everything in her power to appease Sakura,
cause she was in love with her.... She knew it , too. But she
said nothing. Sakura didn't mind the devotion then. She barely
noticed it, she was so thick.
But now...
Why did she miss TOmoyo's devotion? Who did she have plans with?
Who was more important to Tomoyo than Saku-
her thoughts paused for her.
"Why...am I thinking like this?"
Hypocracy?
"I have Syaoran. Shouldn't I worry only about his devotion?"
Hope?
"Shouldn't I?"
Sakura was confused. Could it be that Tomoyo had found a new friend to love? To tape and fashion dresses for? To giggle with, to dream with?
Realization.
Was it Eriol?
Why was shejelous?
Ring.
Ring.
Click, "Konnichi wa, Syaoran Li desu."
pause.
"Hello Syaoran."
"Sakura chan! You sound unhappy!"
"I'm lonely, Syaoran. You're in Hong Kong. Touya and Yuki
are in Kyoto, father is at work, and Tomoyo.."
"Has something happened to Daidouji-san?"
"No."
"Is there something I can do, Sakura?"
"I don't think so. I just wanted to tell someone my feelings."
"Sakura.... you can always tell me your feelings."
"Arigatou, Syaoran."
"I hope I helped."
"Me too." Click.
It was late now. It didn't help. She was still lonely.
Ring.
Ring.
Click, "Konnichiwa, Kinomoto Sakura desu."
"Konban wa, Sakura-chan."
Sakura sat up, smiling.
"Tomoyo-chan?"
"I have lovely news Sakura," she said.
"What is that, Tomoyo?" She has a feeling the news wasn't
as lovely as she said.
"I will be moving to England with Eriol kun!"
Sakura woke up.
She was sweating, panting.
Was that...a nightmare? A ...premonition?
Sakura mounted her wand and flew to Tomoyo's house, on the
verge of tears. It may have been late, but she had to make sure
she didn't lose her best friend...
or more.
"What are you making, Tomoyo?"
Tomoyo jumped, nearly falling off of her chair in surprise.
"S...sakura-chan!!?"
Sakura was sitting on the windowsill of Tomoyo's bedroom. Tomoyo
was at her sewing machine.
Sakura smiled at her.
"I'm making a dress for you."
"Why?"
"Because....it will be my last."
Sakura began to tremble.
"W...why!?"
"I'm moving to England."
Sakura stood up, her tears once again forming in the corners of
her eyes.
"Is it for Eriol?!"
Tomoyo, with little emotion on her face, calmly stood up.
"If it was?"
Sakura reddened with frustracean. "IS IT!?"
a pause.
"It is."
Sakura toppled onto her knees, and cried.
Tomoyo was concerned. She kneeled next to Sakura and hugged her
gently.
"Why, did you come here, Sakura?"
"I was lonely." She sniffed.
"Tell me the truth."
"I am!"
a pause, and Tomoyo grinned.
"Then why did Eriol concern you?"
She caught her.
"Tomoyo, who do you love the most?"
She smiled. "Why, Sakura-chan. You know that."
"Then why won't you stay with me?"
"What about Syaoran?"
Yes, what about him?
"Tomoyo, I love you more."
Tomoyo shook her head.
"This is not the Sakura I want to love me."
Sakura was hurt. What had gone wrong?
"But...Tomoyo..."
Tomoyo suddenly grabbed Sakura's wrist and pulled her onto
her feet, violently. She grabbed the Clow Key, and ripped it off
the chain on Sakura's neck.
"TOMOYO!!"
"Heed your master and release!" Tomoyo called.
And for some reason, it obeyed.
"Tomoyo-chan! What are you doing!?"
Tomoyo was very angry.
She held the wand high.
"Sakura, now I will reveal the truth!!!"
Japanese ref:
Tomoyo desu= I am Tomoyo (Tomoyo speaking)
Genki desu, ne= Are you well? (In good spirits?)
Ie= no
Doushite= Why?
Kero notes:
Kero: Aaaa...Tomoyo has gone crazy...
Shirono: What?
Kero: How did Tomoyo use the wand?
Shirono: I'm the author, I have the power. You have a problem
with this?
Kero: If I say "yes", will you be mailing me to Syaoran
again?
Shirono: Its a possibility.
Kero: Then no. No problem.
