"Here, let me take that." Shawn went over to Sakura and relieved her of
your baggage.
"Aww that is so sweet of you." Sakura cooed.
"Yeah, I wish I had a boyfriend like yours." Madison chirped in.
They were walking aimlessly down the corridors of the airport. They were in Hong Kong. The night lights flashed everywhere. "This place is beautiful," Sakura shouted and ran to the nearest window.
"And also huge!" Madison exclaimed after examining the size of the airport. "How are we ever going to find our way around?"
"Oh! umm, we could ask someone." "Who can speak Chinese?"
"I can." replied Shawn. "I'm half Chinese, you know."
"Really? That's great!" For some reason, that trait had gotten her excited and also there is now a way that they could get around this new place without any trouble. That had troubled her during the plane ride. 'Is this the reason he came along?' She asked herself. 'No, maybe he just want to have some fun with us.'
. * . * . * . * . * . "Lalalalalalalala. I'm getting married! I'm getting married! I'm getting married!" Meilin sang her heart out. "Just one more week!" She started giggling at the thought. "Finally, all will be mine." She has always been jealous of Sakura since she had been better than her in everything. She even took Li from her. "Now, this time, I win." She grinned evilly.
"Just in case anything goes wrong" she turned around and took out a box. It was redwood with gold trimmings around its edges of vine leaves. "I am prepared."
. * . * . * . * . * . "Ooooooo Aaaaaaa" exhaled both Saku ra and Madison.
"Its nice here isn't it?" questioned Shawn. "I grew up here when I was a kid. when I was ten, I came to Japan with my parents."
"That's cool!" squeaked Sakura. "Is that why your here? To visit family or something?"
"Basically, I wanted to keep in touch, so when I heard you were coming it was my chance to jump in." Sakura nodded in understanding.
"Do we get to meet your relatives?" Madison asked. She was getting excited at the new things that are going on. This had to be the funniest place Madison every been to. So far they visited all the greatest shopping malls (of course!) then the famous places like JUMBO, which has the most tourist attractions.
"If you want, to. I wouldn't mind showing you guys off" he then walked to Sakura and put his arm around her waist, "Especially you."
Sakura's cheeks started to rise in color. She could feel her ears burning. When was the last time she felt that way? 'Li' Maybe now, she can actually move on and wish that he could too. Life for her is wonderful so far.
"I would be glad to meet them" she managed to stutter out.
"When can we go?" piped in Madison, trying not to disturb this moment. "We can go now if you want." Shawn answered.
"Great!" Madison and Sakura squealed.
. * . * . * . * . * . "Yes. I would be honored to attend thi s wedding." replied an old voice.
"Thank you. I would be honored to have you attend." came Meilin's voice.
She just invited a rival clan to her wedding. This clan was as big and popular as the Li clan. Both of them can match the other in everything. She wanted everyone of importance to see her get married, even if it is to invite the Fei (pronounced faye) clan. The Li clan elders left Meilin with the job of organizing and managing everything. She was the one in charge. Everything was to go her way. "Now about the time, and date." Li Fei said.
"Oh yes, I would arrange everything. Your whole family is invited. All you would have to do is come. We could talk out the details now."
(into the conversation)
"Master, Master!" Li Fei turned around and glared at his assistant for disrupting his conversation with Meilin. "I wish not to be disturbed."
"But, but..." "No buts, how dare you disobey! I will..."
"Gladly send him back to work." came a voice that finished his sentence. Now Li Fei was furious. 'Who dared challenge me?'
"Who?" but before he could finish again, he was cut off.
"Its me grandfather. Its been a long time." Li Fei turned around and happiness returned into him. "Oh Shawn! You have returned!"
"And who are these people?" Li Fei turned to see two girls. One was holding hands with his grandson and the other stood next to her. 'Hmm, I guess I need some catching up to do.'
Meilin, who was busy drinking her tea and dreaming about her wedding day turned around and screamed. She dropped her teacup, smashing it into little pieces. Her faced lined with horror, shock, and anger. "What is the meaning of this?" was all she could say.
"Aww that is so sweet of you." Sakura cooed.
"Yeah, I wish I had a boyfriend like yours." Madison chirped in.
