Ne ways on wit story.
"I've already lost half my heart don't take the other half from me, O lord be merciful"
Syaoran's thoughts
"What the hell do you mean?" Mei Lin yelled angrily making Danny start to cry, she looked at her husband apologetically as she tried not to break down.
"We have nothing, I don't know how she's doing it but Sakura doesn't remember anything of you or the last few months" the inspector answered nervously.
"What about her pregnancy?" Eriol asked calmly wanting a drink badly.
"That's just it, when she ran away she met a man on a cruise and they obviously get close. She was supposed to marry him or did but then the boat they were on went down in a storm, Sakura was the only survivor found everyone else died. Yesterday they finally found the name of the boat; it was called Clow and owned by Chan France who lent if to his friend Nick for him and his new girlfriend. At first they thought the boat was unregistered but they found out that it was owned when Chan filed a missing report" the inspector answered making their mouths drop open. This was one hell of a story; my god Vanessa was good they had to hand it to her. " I thought it was a scam, the whole relationship thing but they have witnesses who saw the two together"
"What an unbelievable story, Vanessa must be one heck of a con woman" Renzo said tightly hushing Danny. They still didn't know how the people who helped then changed her name couldn't remember doing it. "She's a smart woman using this story and the dead guy. What about Sakura?"
"She's fine and will be or should be on TV now doing a press meeting to please her fans. I don't know what else to do unless you all find the papers or if she remembers herself" he sighed looking at all of them sadly. Tomoyo turned on the TV not caring which channel she landed on because it would be on all of them.
"Did she seem drugged or happy, what was her mood?" Mei Lin said numbly holding Tommy.
"She was happy and didn't show any aggression towards Vanessa. She seemed to start right back off from where she left off as Cherry"
"This is Lisa Nuccio reporting for CAS, we will shortly join Kawasaki-san at the Cherry press conference" the lady on the TV said when a small box popped up on the screen. "Kawasaki-san are you there?"
"Ah yes Lisa I'm here and Cherry will be on a few moments. The room is buzzing with anxious reporters who want at least one of their many questions answered" he stated holding her mic. "Oh hold on here she is" he added the camera zoomed in on Sakura, who was walked out smiling and waving to her fans who was screaming outside the building.
"Hello everyone" Sakura laughed waving; she winked at them like Cherry would do making Tomoyo and Mei Lin see that Sakura wasn't really there it was all Cherry.
"Cherry, Cherry where I have you been all these months?" a man yelled loudly making the rest calm down.
"Well I was sailing with some friends, I cannot remember all the details because I have lost those memories" Sakura answered sadly trying not to cry. "Yes?" she pointed to the man in the blue jacket.
"It is claimed that you were not at all sailing but got married to.
Syaoran.
He pulled up to his mother's door, turning the car off he got out and closed the door before heading in. Yelen and his sisters were watching the conference when he walked in, "It is claimed that you were not at all sailing but got married to Li Xiao Lang of Hong Kong, is that accusation true?" he heard the TV say but he was looking at Sakura who frowned hearing about him.
"No that is not at all true, I've have never met Li Xiao Lang in person" she answered making Yelen and the girls gasp. "Much less marry him, when I was seeing another who's Name is Sinclair Nick"
"God Lord" Yelen got out shocked.
" Isn't that the man who died on the boat?" a woman asked making Sakura's tears drop as she nodded.
"Yes he was I've only seen a picture of him for I cannot remember him" Sakura spoke sadly. "I do not know what he was like," she added and Syaoran could see she meant every word she was saying from the hurt look in her eyes.
"What are you going to do with your career?"
"Well I'm starting on a new album to make up to my precious fans. And my first single will be out in two days, so remember to check it out" Sakura answered wiping her tears away. He turned from the TV and headed up the stairs not wanting to hear anymore because every word she said made him feeling like he was being stabbed in the heart repeatedly. How could she deny knowing him, when she was having his children? Or maybe they weren't really his to begin with. He growled in frustration, why couldn't he just stop thinking about her? She was gone out of his life and she was liar. Shaking his head he opened his daughters room door, she hadn't left bed since Sakura disappeared, no returned to her normal life.
Walking over to her bed he saw that she was still asleep, he gently brushed her hair off her face sitting on her bed. "Oh Lin, I'm sorry" he whispered not knowing what he was apologizing for. She stirred and slowly opened her eyes and smiled up at him sleepily making him smile.
"Dad" she whispered hoarsely pushing up on her pillow, her room was dim because the curtains were pulled and the only light allowed was that from small lamp on the other side of the room.
"Hey, how are you feeling?" Syaoran asked caressing her cheek, Lin smiled sadly seeing the loneliness in her fathers eyes and she could also see that he hadn't slept at all.
"Sad, because your sad and Ying Fa isn't back yet. I miss her father and I know that you miss her too," Lin whispered touching her father's cheek. "When is she going to come back to us" she cried when Syaoran took her into his arms hugging her to him.
"Shhh stop crying Lin, its not good for you" he whispered softly. "Please?" he begged pressing the silent buzzer for his mother just I case he would need her help.
"I can't, I miss her singing to me and holding me. I want to hear her laughter and see her smile, I want to hear her say 'I love you Lin or you're my devil" Lin sobbed hugging her father close. "I. I." she gasped having trouble breathing, her grip tightening on Syaoran's shirt. Syaoran hugged her closer to him rocking her back and forth slowly.
"Shhh.just take small breaths Lin. Come baby breath" he soothed rocking her when his mother walked into the room. Her hands flew to her mouth as she rushed over to him but Syaoran nodded her over to Lin's oxygen mask, she nodded going for it. He moved her face just enough so Yelen cold put the mask on then she step back timing it for the doctor.
After a few seconds it started to work and she became to breath normally. Syaoran looked down at his daughter's pale face and hurt badly blaming Sakura for it. If she was here his child wouldn't be this sick but she was back to her mother doing what she loved best. Yelen removed her hand from her throat trying to calm her shaking hands.
Syaoran thought of the lullaby Sakura used to sing to Lin and tried to remember the words but only some came to mind. "Quietly, the stars Point the way, and the path before you becomes a forest of crystals" he sang softly surprising Lin and Yelen who had never heard her son sing before. Though his voice deeper then Sakura's, it was still soothing to Lin and she couldn't help but smile. "Someday, I want to protect you from everything, cradled in the palm of my hands"
He continued trying to remember the words but couldn't remember all of them, seeing him struggle to remember the words Lin decided to help out. "On a warm night, as you sleep, a gentle light lights up, a house where a small moon still dwells"
He smiled at his daughter loving the sound of her voice even though it was a little weak but not at all lacking in sweetness. "There is but one eclipsed moon, in the corner of my heart" they continued together but Lin's voice was becoming weaker and weaker as she fell deeper and deeper into slumber land.
Syaoran got up and rested her back softly into bed, "May it shine enough to light up whatever narrow path you take" he finished pulling her covers over her. He kissed her forehead leaving the breathing mask on just in case, the sound of the machine echoing in the quiet room.
"Tomorrow we take her for more MRI tests, we need to know what needs to be done and fast. I hate seeing her go through this" Syaoran spoke running his hand through his hair, why was this happening to his child, god he wanted an answer.
"Yes we will. Mei Lin called before I came up, she was crying, it seems that Sakura doesn't remember any of us and she tried sending an inspector in but got nothing of it" Yelen stated looking at her son's face but he showed no emotion.
"And I should care, I told you I don't want to hear her name ever again" Syaoran replied tightly walking out of the room. "I have more important things to worry about" he added shortly.
"She wants your help, she said that with your influence you'd be able to find out more" Yelen persisted behind him, she stop short when Syaoran whipped around.
"Mother didn't you hear what I said?" he asked severely, Yelen nodded that she did and he nod his head to her before continuing. She couldn't believe that he was being so cold, what about his children? And he was so much happier when Ying Fa was around. And to make matters worst he was the only one who could prove that Sakura was actually with him and that her mother was lying. Why couldn't he see that he and Lin needs her, why did he have to be as stubborn as her husband?
Sakura.few days later.
She looked through the glass waiting for her time to continue as she listened to the beat of the song play. So far they had done four of her new songs including the two new singles, she had never worked this fast but at least it kept her busy. "Again Cherry this is the last time" Sam said over the intercom as the cut the song off, and started to play it over again.
"I'm drowning in the shallow waters, and I'm trying so hard to reach the top" she sang looking at the words; she wondered where she was when she wrote the song for it was really sad. "Something so pure, in the air to catch, I can see it.above me"
Back up singer, Marla: A breath of freedom (release me),
Sakura: choice to change (release me), a new direction. I feel so trapped.
Marla: Let me go.
Sakura: as the sunlight, tries to guide me, I keep pretending there's nothing there. And now I'm so deep'
"Cut, Sakura what's the matter?" Sam asked worriedly when she stopped singing, Sakura looked up at him with blurry eyes.
"I don't know," she cried feeling empty as she tried to smile. "I just get really emotional you know, it's nothing," she added trying to shrug it off.
"That's it for today people, Sakura's tired we'll continue tomorrow" Sam ordered making everyone leave casting worried glances at Sakura. They all noticed that when she got back she was worst then before, they could see that she was lost and they were all worried about her. Sakura wiped her eyes and walked out of the room, Sam placed a hand around her shoulders as they walked out of the recording studio. "Come I'll take you home, you look beat"
"I haven't been sleeping good. I have nightmares but I can't make out who there are" Sakura replied softly resting her head on him. "Besides I can't go home, I have my first doctors appointment. I got to see how my baby is doing"
"Can I tag along?" Sam asked sincerely making Sakura smile nodding.
"Of course, mother couldn't go because she had some kind of meeting to go to but she said she'd meet me home and we'll go out to dinner" Sakura stated when they walked through the doors, she looked around and could see that Christmas was here. "Can't wait for Christmas eve"
"Nor can I, I can't wait to see what you'll get me. I still drive the Mercedes you bought me and I cherish it with all my heart" Sam laughed. Sakura had always bought her staff the most extravagant gifts she could get her tiny fingers on.
"Of course" Sakura said pulling her jacket closer to her to block out the chill of the air. Only three days before Christmas Eve and it didn't feel at all like it.
Doctors..
"So what do you see?" Sakura the doctor eagerly lying on the bed Sam sitting on the chair beside her with a smile on his face.
"I see a boy" he fibbed making her and Sakura laugh, "Well nope they're currently hiding their sex my dear"
"Is something wrong?" Sakura asked nervously watching him check the baby's heart beat before looking back at the screen.
"NO not at all but instead of you having one baby, your not having two or three but your having four babies" he answered making her gasp not believing. My god, how was she going to handle having four babes at the same time?
"Are you sure?" Sam asked standing up to see.
"Yes are you sure?" Sakura repeated making the doctor looked at them with a hurt expression.
"Well, yes you are having quadruplets" he confirmed looking closer at the screen. Sakura was still trying to get over the fact that she wasn't going to have one baby but quadruplets; who would have thought she got with a man who has twins running in his family. And now she would have four children to remember him by, this was wonderful.
"This is wonderful news, who would have thought, Sakura your one lucky girl" Sam laughed winking at her.
"How are you feeling about this discovery?" he asked wiping the gel off her belly.
"Its wonderful I've always wanted a large family but I never knew I would have four at the same time" Sakura answered sitting up. "I'm really going to look like a balloon" he laughed hearing her.
"Well enjoy your feet cause in a couple of months you won't be able to walk around freely"
"That's the last thing I wanted to hear" Sakura whined standing up. She felt like a balloon and she hardly had a belly and now she was going to get bigger. "Arigatou, I'll be seeing you two weeks"
"Yes, don't work your self too hard. You'll need to eat healthy and get rest, so your babies can grow" he ordered Sakura nodded before leaving with Sam. She would finish her album and only make necessary appearances until she gave birth 'I'm going to be a mother in four months' she thought happily unconsciously playing with her wedding band.
Home.
"Now remember, I don't think she'll hear that they found you but everyone will know soon. I'm paying you a lot of money to play the part and be with the most wanted woman in all of Japan so you had better not mess up. And make her happy, you'll move in since as you two are apparently married but you won't be staying in her room because your not in my eyes" Vanessa stated glancing at the clock in her office before she turned her attention back to the man sitting on the sofa signing the contract.
"It's done, she's very beautiful and I've always wanted to be famous," Nick stated handing her the contract; Vanessa smiled shaking his hand. Nick Sinclair was very handsome; he had wavy black hair and piercing brown eyes. He was tall with a lean body and arms that showed off his muscles daring anyone to challenge him. Vanessa looked at the door when Sakura walked in smiling brightly; she stopped when she noticed that her mother had company.
"Oh I'm sorry mother, I didn't know you had company" Sakura apologized, to her utter amazement the handsome guy walked over to her and engulfed her into a tight tender hug making her feel uncomfortable.
"Oh god I thought I had lost you" he spoke kissing her soundly on the lips making Sakura gasped her eyes widening. "Don't you remember me darling? It's me Nicky" he finally said making Sakura step back, he was her boyfriend or husband.
"I thought you had died?" she choked out, not knowing what to feel as she stared at the stranger before her. Wasn't she supposed to feel something for him even though she couldn't remember him at all?
"That's what they thought too but don't worry I'm here for you now and our baby" Nick answered caressing her face making an uncanny shill ran through Sakura's spine. She looked into his brown eyes and didn't see one ounce of affection, what had possessed her to fall in love with him.
"I'm sorry but I don't remember you" Sakura finally said making him frown removing his hand from her face.
"Don't worry my dear, we'll make new memories" Nick stated confidently.
"Sakura sweetie why don't you go and change so we can go out to dinner" Vanessa said seeing that her daughter was not at all warming up to Nick, well at least not yet.
"That's what I wanted to talk to you about, my doctor said I should rest. So can I stay in tonight, I want to eat and go to bed I'm tired. He said now that I'm going to have quadruplets and I should get more rest" Sakura stated smiling at her mother's shocked face and Nicks. "I guess quadruplets must run in your family" she said looking at him but he just looked bewildered 'I guess not' she thought sadly, that was odd.
"All right, go on up. I'll have some food sent up for you" Vanessa said suddenly. "Nick will be here tomorrow, he's moving in"
Sakura didn't like that idea at all she didn't even know him. She was so very confused that her head was starting to throb.
"Night sweets" Nick said kissing her on her temple, Sakura nodded not saying anything. She left them to their thoughts, Vanessa on the other hand had to call Dr. T and tell him there was a change of plans.
Sakura walked to her room feeling numb, when she walked into her room she just collapsed unto the bed tired. "I feel empty," she whispered closing her eyes.
"I'm.I'm leaving, you make me mad" Sakura stated proudly turning her back to him as not to see his incredibly handsome face that would make any woman bend to his will.
"Cherry blossom" a voice whispered.
"Why do you do this to me" Sakura whispered when they broke the kiss, the man chuckled wrapping his arms around her as she rested her head on the man's shoulder.
"I don't know if you love me, but I love you" a girl's soft voice said.
"Infant"
She opened her eyes when she remembered being called that, and she knew that she didn't like the name infant but loved cherry blossom. And the little girl sounded familiar too but who were they? And why did she feel so secure wrapped in the guys? It couldn't have been Nick; no it wasn't Nick because she felt the opposite.
"Miss Sakura? I've brought your tablets" a maid said walking into her room, Sakura sat up and took them one by one making a mental note to ask her mother or Nick about the memories. She looked at the funny little one wondering why it didn't have a brand name like the others. Shrugging she took it anyways, having been told that they were vitamins prescribed my doctor Clan.
"Thank you, Alice" Sakura smiled handing the lady back the glass.
"I'll bring your dinner up later" Alice said before leaving. Sakura sighed resting back to sleep; little did she know that when she woke up she wouldn't remember a thing.
Hong Kong.
"What the hell do you mean surgery?" he growled shooting daggers at the poor doctors in the room.
"Ah we have to give her a new heart, if this keeps on happening she'll have a severe one and will most likely die from it" one answered loosening his tie, the room suddenly getting warmer.
"Xiao Lang calm down, they are doing there best" Yelen said trying to get a hold of her son's deadly temper.
"Continue dammit, look I don't care how much I have to pay to get one. I'll pay anything" Syaoran stated angrily.
"We can't do that, she has to be put on a waiting list like everyone else" one objected getting Syaoran's glare full force, he wouldn't settle for this.
"You don't tell me what I can't get, if she needs a heart I'll get her one even if it has to be mine" Syaoran stated icily making Yelen gasped, she looked at him and was trying to understand what he was going through. Why did her son have to go through so much pain? It wasn't fair, no it wasn't.
"Please calm down, and listen to us" Syaoran couldn't take it anymore, he had to get out of here. He got up and stalked out of the room leaving everyone in silence.
"I'm sorry but that's the only child he's got. It's tearing him apart watching her go through this" Yelen apologized softly hold back her own tears. "Please continue, I want to knew all I can do to help my precious Lin" they nodded in understanding.
Syaoran.
He punched the wall of the hospital wanting to let loose his anger on anything. Why was this happening to his Lin? She was so innocent and the only thing he had in life. "NO" he whispered looking out the window at the fading sun, "NO" he growled angrily. "You can't take her from me, please don't take her from me" he pleaded to God.
"Xiao Lang, everything will be all right" Yelen said softly touching her son's shoulder. Syaoran turned to look at his mother and could see that she was going through the same. Even though she was shorter then him, she drew her only son into her arms and Syaoran welcomed it.
Even though he didn't show it, Sakura's betrayal was also riding him for he heard about her husband's miraculous appearance after thought to be dead. And he knew he couldn't, no matter what wipe her out of his heart because it was simply impossible. He lost one of his special girls; he didn't want to lose the other.
Yelen hugged her son as best as she could, trying to sooth but she knew she could only do so much. He didn't Ying Fa, why wouldn't he just accept that fact that he needs and loves her? She prayed every night that he would get it together and get back his wife.
Vanessa.
She sat in her office deep in thought as Dr. Clan sat in front of her, "What are we to do?" she asked finally looking at the man.
"Well we can't make her abort for she's too far along it would kill her" he answered; the man's might night black stared into hers.
"Hai it's too same to kill her no that wouldn't be good people would be all over me. Why must someone be so hard to get rid of?" she cried in frustration her lips in a fine line. "And when can we stop using the pills?"
"We can't that's what I came here to tell you. Unfortunately if she stops it'll wear off and she'll slowly start to remember" He stated making her growl in frustration.
"And what are you going to do about it?"
"We're trying to fix that problem at this very moment Vanessa be patient. Besides wouldn't it better to keep her around until her entire album is released?"
"Point taken but when she has those brats, she'll start to change you just watch. I know her, she'll probably want to stop singing and then she wouldn't be any good to me. She'll sign everything she has to the brats and leave me with nothing and I won't stand for that" Vanessa hissed before a smile formed on her lips. "But I'll take into consideration about what you are saying, for now she'll live and make back all the millions she gave away. You go back to your office and finish your job"
"Fine, I'll see you tomorrow good night Vanessa" Clan said getting up from the leather chair when Nick walked in. They nodded at each other before Clan closed the door, Nick walked up to Vanessa as she got up from her desk in her night robe.
"What is it that you want Nick?" she asked raising a brow at him.
"How about a drink?" he asked smiling at her; Vanessa nodded watching his movements with a smile. She was starting to think that getting him to live here was a sensational idea.
Gwen.
She laughed crazily finishing the article she was reading, getting up she threw it on the table of her new apartment. She felt alive and knew that her second chance was here; she had told him that the little wench would only cause him more grief.
"Don't worry Li Xiao Lang, Gwen is on her way to sooth you. And I know that you won't be able to resist me" she whispered haughtily going into her loft. It was smaller then the house she was living in when she was with Syaoran and she hated it. She wanted her old home back and she wanted Li Xiao Lang as well. This was the right time to get back in his life now that his little fiancée had walked out on him. "Hahaha, don't worry my love, Gwen is coming" she laughed taking out her black teddy for seducing time.
Author's note: Well what did ya'll think? Do ya'll like this chappie? I hope that it gave you a better idea of what is happening in the whole thing so it won't be a mystery. Personally I hate mysteries, ne ways Ja Ne till next time.

Syaoran's thoughts
"What the hell do you mean?" Mei Lin yelled angrily making Danny start to cry, she looked at her husband apologetically as she tried not to break down.
"We have nothing, I don't know how she's doing it but Sakura doesn't remember anything of you or the last few months" the inspector answered nervously.
"What about her pregnancy?" Eriol asked calmly wanting a drink badly.
"That's just it, when she ran away she met a man on a cruise and they obviously get close. She was supposed to marry him or did but then the boat they were on went down in a storm, Sakura was the only survivor found everyone else died. Yesterday they finally found the name of the boat; it was called Clow and owned by Chan France who lent if to his friend Nick for him and his new girlfriend. At first they thought the boat was unregistered but they found out that it was owned when Chan filed a missing report" the inspector answered making their mouths drop open. This was one hell of a story; my god Vanessa was good they had to hand it to her. " I thought it was a scam, the whole relationship thing but they have witnesses who saw the two together"

"She's fine and will be or should be on TV now doing a press meeting to please her fans. I don't know what else to do unless you all find the papers or if she remembers herself" he sighed looking at all of them sadly. Tomoyo turned on the TV not caring which channel she landed on because it would be on all of them.
"Did she seem drugged or happy, what was her mood?" Mei Lin said numbly holding Tommy.
"She was happy and didn't show any aggression towards Vanessa. She seemed to start right back off from where she left off as Cherry"
"This is Lisa Nuccio reporting for CAS, we will shortly join Kawasaki-san at the Cherry press conference" the lady on the TV said when a small box popped up on the screen. "Kawasaki-san are you there?"

"Well I was sailing with some friends, I cannot remember all the details because I have lost those memories" Sakura answered sadly trying not to cry. "Yes?" she pointed to the man in the blue jacket.
"It is claimed that you were not at all sailing but got married to.
Syaoran.
He pulled up to his mother's door, turning the car off he got out and closed the door before heading in.

"Dad" she whispered hoarsely pushing up on her pillow, her room was dim because the curtains were pulled and the only light allowed was that from small lamp on the other side of the room.
"Hey, how are you feeling?" Syaoran asked caressing her cheek, Lin smiled sadly seeing the loneliness in her fathers eyes and she could also see that he hadn't slept at all.
"Sad, because your sad and Ying Fa isn't back yet. I miss her father and I know that you miss her too," Lin whispered touching her father's cheek. "When is she going to come back to us" she cried when Syaoran took her into his arms hugging her to him.
"Shhh stop crying Lin, its not good for you" he whispered softly. "Please?" he begged pressing the silent buzzer for his mother just I case he would need her help.
"I can't, I miss her singing to me and holding me. I want to hear her laughter and see her smile, I want to hear her say 'I love you Lin or you're my devil" Lin sobbed hugging her father close. "I. I." she gasped having trouble breathing, her grip tightening on Syaoran's shirt. Syaoran hugged her closer to him rocking her back and forth slowly.
"Shhh.just take small breaths Lin. Come baby breath" he soothed rocking her when his mother walked into the room. Her hands flew to her mouth as she rushed over to him but Syaoran nodded her over to Lin's oxygen mask, she nodded going for it. He moved her face just enough so Yelen cold put the mask on then she step back timing it for the doctor.
After a few seconds it started to work and she became to breath normally. Syaoran looked down at his daughter's pale face and hurt badly blaming Sakura for it. If she was here his child wouldn't be this sick but she was back to her mother doing what she loved best. Yelen removed her hand from her throat trying to calm her shaking hands.
Syaoran thought of the lullaby Sakura used to sing to Lin and tried to remember the words but only some came to mind. "Quietly, the stars Point the way, and the path before you becomes a forest of crystals" he sang softly surprising Lin and Yelen who had never heard her son sing before. Though his voice deeper then Sakura's, it was still soothing to Lin and she couldn't help but smile. "Someday, I want to protect you from everything, cradled in the palm of my hands"
He continued trying to remember the words but couldn't remember all of them, seeing him struggle to remember the words Lin decided to help out. "On a warm night, as you sleep, a gentle light lights up, a house where a small moon still dwells"
He smiled at his daughter loving the sound of her voice even though it was a little weak but not at all lacking in sweetness. "There is but one eclipsed moon, in the corner of my heart" they continued together but Lin's voice was becoming weaker and weaker as she fell deeper and deeper into slumber land.
Syaoran got up and rested her back softly into bed, "May it shine enough to light up whatever narrow path you take" he finished pulling her covers over her. He kissed her forehead leaving the breathing mask on just in case, the sound of the machine echoing in the quiet room.
"Tomorrow we take her for more MRI tests, we need to know what needs to be done and fast. I hate seeing her go through this" Syaoran spoke running his hand through his hair, why was this happening to his child, god he wanted an answer.
"Yes we will. Mei Lin called before I came up, she was crying, it seems that Sakura doesn't remember any of us and she tried sending an inspector in but got nothing of it" Yelen stated looking at her son's face but he showed no emotion.
"And I should care, I told you I don't want to hear her name ever again" Syaoran replied tightly walking out of the room. "I have more important things to worry about" he added shortly.
"She wants your help, she said that with your influence you'd be able to find out more" Yelen persisted behind him, she stop short when Syaoran whipped around.
"Mother didn't you hear what I said?" he asked severely, Yelen nodded that she did and he nod his head to her before continuing. She couldn't believe that he was being so cold, what about his children? And he was so much happier when Ying Fa was around. And to make matters worst he was the only one who could prove that Sakura was actually with him and that her mother was lying. Why couldn't he see that he and Lin needs her, why did he have to be as stubborn as her husband?
Sakura.few days later.
She looked through the glass waiting for her time to continue as she listened to the beat of the song play. So far they had done four of her new songs including the two new singles, she had never worked this fast but at least it kept her busy. "Again Cherry this is the last time" Sam said over the intercom as the cut the song off, and started to play it over again.
"I'm drowning in the shallow waters, and I'm trying so hard to reach the top" she sang looking at the words; she wondered where she was when she wrote the song for it was really sad. "Something so pure, in the air to catch, I can see it.above me"
Back up singer, Marla: A breath of freedom (release me),
Sakura: choice to change (release me), a new direction. I feel so trapped.
Marla: Let me go.
Sakura: as the sunlight, tries to guide me, I keep pretending there's nothing there. And now I'm so deep'
"Cut, Sakura what's the matter?" Sam asked worriedly when she stopped singing, Sakura looked up at him with blurry eyes.
"I don't know," she cried feeling empty as she tried to smile. "I just get really emotional you know, it's nothing," she added trying to shrug it off.
"That's it for today people, Sakura's tired we'll continue tomorrow" Sam ordered making everyone leave casting worried glances at Sakura. They all noticed that when she got back she was worst then before, they could see that she was lost and they were all worried about her. Sakura wiped her eyes and walked out of the room, Sam placed a hand around her shoulders as they walked out of the recording studio. "Come I'll take you home, you look beat"
"I haven't been sleeping good. I have nightmares but I can't make out who there are" Sakura replied softly resting her head on him. "Besides I can't go home, I have my first doctors appointment. I got to see how my baby is doing"
"Can I tag along?" Sam asked sincerely making Sakura smile nodding.
"Of course, mother couldn't go because she had some kind of meeting to go to but she said she'd meet me home and we'll go out to dinner" Sakura stated when they walked through the doors, she looked around and could see that Christmas was here. "Can't wait for Christmas eve"
"Nor can I, I can't wait to see what you'll get me. I still drive the Mercedes you bought me and I cherish it with all my heart" Sam laughed. Sakura had always bought her staff the most extravagant gifts she could get her tiny fingers on.
"Of course" Sakura said pulling her jacket closer to her to block out the chill of the air. Only three days before Christmas Eve and it didn't feel at all like it.
Doctors..
"So what do you see?" Sakura the doctor eagerly lying on the bed Sam sitting on the chair beside her with a smile on his face.
"I see a boy" he fibbed making her and Sakura laugh, "Well nope they're currently hiding their sex my dear"
"Is something wrong?" Sakura asked nervously watching him check the baby's heart beat before looking back at the screen.
"NO not at all but instead of you having one baby, your not having two or three but your having four babies" he answered making her gasp not believing. My god, how was she going to handle having four babes at the same time?
"Are you sure?" Sam asked standing up to see.
"Yes are you sure?" Sakura repeated making the doctor looked at them with a hurt expression.
"Well, yes you are having quadruplets" he confirmed looking closer at the screen. Sakura was still trying to get over the fact that she wasn't going to have one baby but quadruplets; who would have thought she got with a man who has twins running in his family. And now she would have four children to remember him by, this was wonderful.
"This is wonderful news, who would have thought, Sakura your one lucky girl" Sam laughed winking at her.
"How are you feeling about this discovery?" he asked wiping the gel off her belly.
"Its wonderful I've always wanted a large family but I never knew I would have four at the same time" Sakura answered sitting up. "I'm really going to look like a balloon" he laughed hearing her.
"Well enjoy your feet cause in a couple of months you won't be able to walk around freely"
"That's the last thing I wanted to hear" Sakura whined standing up. She felt like a balloon and she hardly had a belly and now she was going to get bigger. "Arigatou, I'll be seeing you two weeks"
"Yes, don't work your self too hard. You'll need to eat healthy and get rest, so your babies can grow" he ordered Sakura nodded before leaving with Sam. She would finish her album and only make necessary appearances until she gave birth 'I'm going to be a mother in four months' she thought happily unconsciously playing with her wedding band.
Home.
"Now remember, I don't think she'll hear that they found you but everyone will know soon. I'm paying you a lot of money to play the part and be with the most wanted woman in all of Japan so you had better not mess up. And make her happy, you'll move in since as you two are apparently married but you won't be staying in her room because your not in my eyes" Vanessa stated glancing at the clock in her office before she turned her attention back to the man sitting on the sofa signing the contract.
"It's done, she's very beautiful and I've always wanted to be famous," Nick stated handing her the contract; Vanessa smiled shaking his hand. Nick Sinclair was very handsome; he had wavy black hair and piercing brown eyes. He was tall with a lean body and arms that showed off his muscles daring anyone to challenge him. Vanessa looked at the door when Sakura walked in smiling brightly; she stopped when she noticed that her mother had company.
"Oh I'm sorry mother, I didn't know you had company" Sakura apologized, to her utter amazement the handsome guy walked over to her and engulfed her into a tight tender hug making her feel uncomfortable.
"Oh god I thought I had lost you" he spoke kissing her soundly on the lips making Sakura gasped her eyes widening. "Don't you remember me darling? It's me Nicky" he finally said making Sakura step back, he was her boyfriend or husband.
"I thought you had died?" she choked out, not knowing what to feel as she stared at the stranger before her. Wasn't she supposed to feel something for him even though she couldn't remember him at all?
"That's what they thought too but don't worry I'm here for you now and our baby" Nick answered caressing her face making an uncanny shill ran through Sakura's spine. She looked into his brown eyes and didn't see one ounce of affection, what had possessed her to fall in love with him.
"I'm sorry but I don't remember you" Sakura finally said making him frown removing his hand from her face.
"Don't worry my dear, we'll make new memories" Nick stated confidently.
"Sakura sweetie why don't you go and change so we can go out to dinner" Vanessa said seeing that her daughter was not at all warming up to Nick, well at least not yet.
"That's what I wanted to talk to you about, my doctor said I should rest. So can I stay in tonight, I want to eat and go to bed I'm tired. He said now that I'm going to have quadruplets and I should get more rest" Sakura stated smiling at her mother's shocked face and Nicks. "I guess quadruplets must run in your family" she said looking at him but he just looked bewildered 'I guess not' she thought sadly, that was odd.
"All right, go on up. I'll have some food sent up for you" Vanessa said suddenly. "Nick will be here tomorrow, he's moving in"
Sakura didn't like that idea at all she didn't even know him. She was so very confused that her head was starting to throb.
"Night sweets" Nick said kissing her on her temple, Sakura nodded not saying anything. She left them to their thoughts, Vanessa on the other hand had to call Dr. T and tell him there was a change of plans.
Sakura walked to her room feeling numb, when she walked into her room she just collapsed unto the bed tired. "I feel empty," she whispered closing her eyes.
"I'm.I'm leaving, you make me mad" Sakura stated proudly turning her back to him as not to see his incredibly handsome face that would make any woman bend to his will.
"Cherry blossom" a voice whispered.
"Why do you do this to me" Sakura whispered when they broke the kiss, the man chuckled wrapping his arms around her as she rested her head on the man's shoulder.
"I don't know if you love me, but I love you" a girl's soft voice said.
"Infant"
She opened her eyes when she remembered being called that, and she knew that she didn't like the name infant but loved cherry blossom. And the little girl sounded familiar too but who were they? And why did she feel so secure wrapped in the guys? It couldn't have been Nick; no it wasn't Nick because she felt the opposite.
"Miss Sakura? I've brought your tablets" a maid said walking into her room, Sakura sat up and took them one by one making a mental note to ask her mother or Nick about the memories. She looked at the funny little one wondering why it didn't have a brand name like the others. Shrugging she took it anyways, having been told that they were vitamins prescribed my doctor Clan.
"Thank you, Alice" Sakura smiled handing the lady back the glass.
"I'll bring your dinner up later" Alice said before leaving. Sakura sighed resting back to sleep; little did she know that when she woke up she wouldn't remember a thing.
Hong Kong.
"What the hell do you mean surgery?" he growled shooting daggers at the poor doctors in the room.
"Ah we have to give her a new heart, if this keeps on happening she'll have a severe one and will most likely die from it" one answered loosening his tie, the room suddenly getting warmer.
"Xiao Lang calm down, they are doing there best" Yelen said trying to get a hold of her son's deadly temper.
"Continue dammit, look I don't care how much I have to pay to get one. I'll pay anything" Syaoran stated angrily.
"We can't do that, she has to be put on a waiting list like everyone else" one objected getting Syaoran's glare full force, he wouldn't settle for this.
"You don't tell me what I can't get, if she needs a heart I'll get her one even if it has to be mine" Syaoran stated icily making Yelen gasped, she looked at him and was trying to understand what he was going through. Why did her son have to go through so much pain? It wasn't fair, no it wasn't.
"Please calm down, and listen to us" Syaoran couldn't take it anymore, he had to get out of here. He got up and stalked out of the room leaving everyone in silence.
"I'm sorry but that's the only child he's got. It's tearing him apart watching her go through this" Yelen apologized softly hold back her own tears. "Please continue, I want to knew all I can do to help my precious Lin" they nodded in understanding.
Syaoran.
He punched the wall of the hospital wanting to let loose his anger on anything. Why was this happening to his Lin? She was so innocent and the only thing he had in life. "NO" he whispered looking out the window at the fading sun, "NO" he growled angrily. "You can't take her from me, please don't take her from me" he pleaded to God.
"Xiao Lang, everything will be all right" Yelen said softly touching her son's shoulder. Syaoran turned to look at his mother and could see that she was going through the same. Even though she was shorter then him, she drew her only son into her arms and Syaoran welcomed it.
Even though he didn't show it, Sakura's betrayal was also riding him for he heard about her husband's miraculous appearance after thought to be dead. And he knew he couldn't, no matter what wipe her out of his heart because it was simply impossible. He lost one of his special girls; he didn't want to lose the other.
Yelen hugged her son as best as she could, trying to sooth but she knew she could only do so much. He didn't Ying Fa, why wouldn't he just accept that fact that he needs and loves her? She prayed every night that he would get it together and get back his wife.
Vanessa.
She sat in her office deep in thought as Dr. Clan sat in front of her, "What are we to do?" she asked finally looking at the man.
"Well we can't make her abort for she's too far along it would kill her" he answered; the man's might night black stared into hers.
"Hai it's too same to kill her no that wouldn't be good people would be all over me. Why must someone be so hard to get rid of?" she cried in frustration her lips in a fine line. "And when can we stop using the pills?"
"We can't that's what I came here to tell you. Unfortunately if she stops it'll wear off and she'll slowly start to remember" He stated making her growl in frustration.
"And what are you going to do about it?"
"We're trying to fix that problem at this very moment Vanessa be patient. Besides wouldn't it better to keep her around until her entire album is released?"
"Point taken but when she has those brats, she'll start to change you just watch. I know her, she'll probably want to stop singing and then she wouldn't be any good to me. She'll sign everything she has to the brats and leave me with nothing and I won't stand for that" Vanessa hissed before a smile formed on her lips. "But I'll take into consideration about what you are saying, for now she'll live and make back all the millions she gave away. You go back to your office and finish your job"
"Fine, I'll see you tomorrow good night Vanessa" Clan said getting up from the leather chair when Nick walked in. They nodded at each other before Clan closed the door, Nick walked up to Vanessa as she got up from her desk in her night robe.
"What is it that you want Nick?" she asked raising a brow at him.
"How about a drink?" he asked smiling at her; Vanessa nodded watching his movements with a smile. She was starting to think that getting him to live here was a sensational idea.
Gwen.
She laughed crazily finishing the article she was reading, getting up she threw it on the table of her new apartment. She felt alive and knew that her second chance was here; she had told him that the little wench would only cause him more grief.
"Don't worry Li Xiao Lang, Gwen is on her way to sooth you. And I know that you won't be able to resist me" she whispered haughtily going into her loft. It was smaller then the house she was living in when she was with Syaoran and she hated it. She wanted her old home back and she wanted Li Xiao Lang as well. This was the right time to get back in his life now that his little fiancée had walked out on him. "Hahaha, don't worry my love, Gwen is coming" she laughed taking out her black teddy for seducing time.
