Chapter 9: Trip to the fair and complicated love don't mix.
Tomoyo had stars in her eyes as she saw Sakura. "You look so KAWAII!!!!!!!" she squealed. Sakura blushed because she was embarrassed. Li just looked at Sakura and looked away, blushing. Tomoyo just smiled at this. Mei-lin just gave him a sad grin, but shook her head afterwards. Sakura found this strange. "Well, let's go to the fair now!" Tomoyo said suddenly. So, they went to the fair by taking a city train.
Sakura was staring out the window quietly with softened eyes. Mei-lin and Tomoyo was chatting lightly to each other. Li was standing up with his arms crossed. He quietly glanced at Sakura, still with his arms crossed. He was blushing softly as he saw this. She was staring at the Tokyo tower, thinking about the final judgement she had to go through back when she was 11 years old. Finally, they arrived at the fair.
"We're here!!!!!!!!" Sakura screamed cheerfully. Mei-lin didn't say much because she was still a bit depressed. Normally she would have clung into Li's arm shouting with joy. This time, she didn't. Tomoyo just smiled while Li had a serious face.
"Let's go ride in the roller-coaster!!!!!" Sakura yelled, smiling at everyone. After they rode on the roller-coaster, they went to eat ice- cream. Then, they went to tons of other rides. They took some pictures as well. Mei-lin was smiling, while Sakura was hugging her tight, with a very happy face. Li was blushing at Sakura, who was standing beside Mei-lin. Tomoyo was smiling as she looked at Li. After, they rode on all the rides, it was time for them to go home.
"Well, I guess it's time for us to go home now." Tomoyo said. "Yeah.I guess so." Sakura replied. They all rode the train again and went back to their hometowns. "We're here." Sakura said. Li was frowning and was blushing. Mei- lin had a little unhappy grin while Tomoyo was just smiling.
"Huh??" Sakura said as she asked what was wrong. Mei-lin just looked up at Sakura and gave her a smile. "Nothing." she replied. She went up to Li and also asked what was wrong. "Daijoubu desu ka?." she asked quietly. Li just glanced at her and blushed even more.
"N..nothing.." he stammered very quietly, trying to avoid her gaze. He then looked up at Sakura, a little longer this time. He opened his boyish lips to say something, but closed it afterwards and looked away. Sakura had a puzzled look on her face and frowned slightly. She was also blushing.
"Ok..well, I guess we'll see you around sometime!" Sakura said suddenly, smiling. Mei-lin smiled and said "yeah..well.bye then!" as she walked towards her apartment with Li. Li blushed and turned away from Sakura, and followed Mei-lin. Then, Sakura waved a little as she walked with Tomoyo. Sakura had a little curious grin on her face.
"What's wrong Sakura?" Tomoyo asked. Sakura didn't say anything at first but looked at Tomoyo quickly. "Well..it's just that..I don't know why...but..." she said with a sad face as she looked at Tomoyo. Tomoyo just had a puzzled look on her face. "Well.this might sound a little..surprising to you Tomoyo...but..I..I always seem to....get this...huge sentimental emotion over me...when...when..when I..look at Li..." Sakura said as she slightly blushed.
"OH!!!!!!!!!!!!" Tomoyo gasped with her eyes wide open. "Hoe??" Sakura said as she looked at Tomoyo. Tomoyo then calmed herself down and smiled at Sakura. "I. knew you would think that this was weird.." Sakura said as she looked at the ground.
"No, Sakura.I don't find it weird.it's just that.I think that it's SOOOOOOOOO kawaiii." Tomoyo said "kawaii" very quietly so Sakura couldn't hear it. Sakura asked what she just said but Tomoyo replied "nothing." and smiled. Sakura told Tomoyo all about the dream she had recently in Li's house. Tomoyo gave her a little squeal and had starry eyes when Sakura finished telling her, her story. They finally split up and went their own ways to their house.

"Why didn't you tell her Li?" Mei-lin asked him as she was walking with him. Li was just blushing while he was looking at the ground. Li just sighed and said slowly "I.I don't know..Sakura is..I don't think that...she'll be able to accept it..." with a sad face. Mei-lin softened her eyes and said "how do you know that??.how do you know if Sakura will accept your feelings or not??.".
"Look!!! I'd rather not talk about this ok?" Li said harshly to Mei-lin. Mei-lin just narrowed her eyes at Li, and jerked her face away. "I'm just trying to help." she said with a trembling voice as tears started to roll out from her eyes. Li narrowed his eyes while he was looking at the ground and suddenly stopped while he was walking.
"I'm sorry ok? It's just that..I'm already frustrated enough that I can't tell her." Li said. Mei-lin was still crying silently. Li looked up at her and sighed a big sigh. "Here.." He said as he gave her a green hanker- chief. "Don't cry, alright?" he said to Mei-lin. Mei-lin took the hanker- chief and dabbed her face to clean out her tears. They finally arrived at their apartment and went in.
