**next morning**
"HHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
the scream of sakura went throughout the building...
"huh? was that sakura i heard" syaoran thought as he was eating his breakfast...
"i'm late.. i'm late..."sakura started chanting as she dressed into a white skirt , a grey 3/4 sleeve shirt with the cuff and collar white... and white shoes.. and ran out the door. and yet again she ran into the guy next door.
he caught sakura from falling..
"are you okay?" he asked staring into her emerald eyes..." ' omg it cant' be sakura can it?'"
"yeah.. thank--"sakura was cut off noticing that he looked like syaoran.." ' nooo it noo it can't be syaoran can it?' "
"um i have to go.. bye.. " sakura said and ran off...
syaoran was surprised... " ' it can't be sakura can it...' "
sakura was in her car... thinking the same thing... she opened up the shop and went immediately into her office...she was confused, scared and afraid. "what if it is syaoran... why did he come here than..."
"hey boss who is syaoran?" minoo asked as he walked into her office
"oh. someone i knew...so ready to find out what our fincial status is?"
"yeah.. yeah.. lets get on with it"
"hehe. okay.. well if i just get the profit we are gettin now and cut off our salaries and merchendise prices off from it.. THAN we have about $150-$300 to spend on the whatever you want to call it"
"so that means even with the budget cut the company gives us we are still making leftover money? we rock!"
"yeah yeah.. but if we want to buy new things.. that kinda leaves us nothing..."
"ooh yeah.. we were going to buy a new cash register and everything..."
"yeah. "
"this totally sucks"
"i know... " sakura went on about all the money issues.. what their plan was for the next month.. such and such...
"hey you guys sorry to disturb you but you have to watch the news" miri exclaimed as she barged into the door.
"okay.."
they turned on the tv and there was li xiaolang making a speech about their company they worked for.
" i have concluded that i will be staying here for a year, surpervising the buisnesses. i will higher and lower the money we give to the stores..." and he went on and on and on...
after he had finished they turned off the tv and looked at their boss who had fainted...
"omg SAKURA!! ahh.. minoo pick her up.. we have to take her to the hospital..."miri shouted
"you don't have to scream"
minoo picked up sakura and put her in the car. miri told the others where they were going...(miri went too)
*hours later*
"ugh.. i feel horrible.." sakura said as she woke up
"sakura are you alright?" miri asked
"miri? where am i?"
"you are at the hospital.. you go t us all worried..."
"i'm sorry..."
"what happened boss?"
"uh.. nothing.. "
"we called ms. daidouji over..."
"what about the store?"
"juwon and sunhee are there.."
"you guys i'll be fine.. come on lets goo..."
"sakura!! are you alright?" tomoyo came rushing in ignoring the nurse telling her not to get in
"i'm fine tomoyo.."
"what happened?"
sakura stared at miri and minoo and they knew that they should go out...
"i.... i... syaoran is in tokyo.."
"what?! how do you know? did he call you? that son of a --"
"no.. i saw him on the news.. i just found out that he is the owner of the company i'm working for.."
"really?!"
"yeah..."
"aww sakura i'm sorry"
"its okay.. i'm i'm i'm over syaoran now..." sakura said as she fell into tears..
"sakura..."
*minoo and miri*
"minoo, why do you think sakura is crying?" miri asked
"i think it has something to do with li xiaolang..."
"why would you think that?"
"this morning sakura said someting about syaoran..."
"syaoran? what does that.."
"syaron is the japanese name for xiaolang..."
"omg little wolf"
they saw sakura getting up from the bed.
"sakura are you sure you want to leave?" minoo asked concernedly
Sakura nodded her head..
"i think you should relax today, take a break from work... you looked extremely stressed"
"no.. i want to work..i really have to..."
"hey are you sayingwe can't take care of the store by ourselves?" minoo asked like he was offended
"no..."
she saw minoo's pout turn into a smile...sakura laughed at his childish behavior...
"i just don't like doing nothing..."sakura replied
"that is the point of relaxing... not doing anything.. having fun. " miri exclaimed
"you need a break from your hard work sakura" tomoyo agreed
"i really don't want to take a break.. i just was really surprised at what the superviser had to say. i'm fine now an di want to go back to work."
"we won't llow it. if you don't take a break there is n way you can survive."
"minoo's right for once.. please sakura.. do it for us?"
"okay. i guess. i'm so glad i have caring employees.."
"that's what happens if we have a caring boss... now off you go with tomoyo to your house"minoo said pushing sakura in the exit direction
"i'll take you home.. miri you and minoo should go back to the store.. "
"okay... bye ms. tomoyo.. bye sakura.."
"hey minoo there is a list of what you ahve to do today.. do that will you?"
"okay. just take a long break... "
"okay. bye minoo. and miri"
"ohohoh. come on sakura lets go home"
"what about your store?"
"i had a fashion show yesterday.. and you expect me to have
"i see. not because you were to tired right?"
"sakura don't push it.."
tomoyo took sakur ahome and she had anice long bath relaxing her tense muscles but no matter how hard she tried she couldn't stop thinking of syaoran.
"' sakura you must stop thinking of him... you don't love him anymore.. he probably is married by now and has a nice family... even though i could have made his.. NO sakura.. stop, he doesn't love you , that's why he left...'"
she finally got out and changed and decided to read a book getting HIM off of her mind... and soon she fell asleep. tomoyo came into sakura's room and saw her sleeping peacefully..
"oh sakura" tomoyo whispered with saddness.
she left a note telling sakura she was on a date with eriol.
after an hour or two she woke up and saw the note tomoyo left.
Dear SAKU
i'm on a date with the crazy blue haired freak. remember to eat something!! --TOM
sakura laughed. she found it hard to believe that eriol and tomoyo had been going out for 11 years and still eriol had not proposed... eriol's excuse? was sakura.. he didn't want sakura, his half-daughter, to live alone. he didnt' think she could handle it. but a few days ago sakura finally convinced eriol that she would be fine and if he didn't ask tomoyo to marry him soon, she would make sure that tomoyo would marry someone that he didn't like. She couldn't wait til tomoyo came back witht eh ring on her finger for eriol told her tonight was the night... she heard her stomach grumble and cooked some ramen noodles. and watched a romance movie on tv. crying out her eyes because it was so sweet, she heard the door bell ring.. she quickly wiped up her tears and opened the door.
"minoo? what are you doing here?"
"sakura... i realy wanted to wait but ...*takes a deep breath*
so what do you think he'll say???
they took away our allowance...*"
"THAT SON OF A BITCH DID WHAT?!"
minoo startled by sakura's anger whispered
"they took our allowance away..."
sakura went into her room and changed into a grey skirt, and a tight white blouse(for she was wearing some pj pants.. and a baggy shirt). she put on light maeup and walked out the door.
"sakura where are you doing?" minoo asked even though he already knew the answer
"a friend"
mino was now confused he thought she was going to the company... anyhow he just followed sakura to her car and go in with her. minoo looked at the expression on sakura's face and decided to cut back on the jokes... actually he cut back at talking at all. than he noticed that they stopped at the company...
"sakura i thought you said we were going to meet a friend.."
"we are.. sir? can you tell us where mr. li's office is?"
"why of course young lady. its on the top floor to your left."
"thank you."
she and minoo got on the elevator and went all the way to the top floor. they walked into the office
"hello how may i help you?" the secretary asked,
"i would like to see mr. li"
"he is not seeing people right now."
"does he have company?"
"no... but if you would li--" but she was cut off because sakura opened the door.
"hello syaoran.."
syaoran turned around. no one was allowed to call him syaoran.. except sakura... than he saw her...
"i'm sorry mr. li. *she turned to sakura* miss you are not allowed to be in here."
"its okay.. ms. oh{korean last name... }."
"okay sir."
minoo decided to stay outside having a feeling sakura wanted to be alone with mr. li...
"hello sakura..."
"you know syaoran, you havn't changed much...*looking at his body... his handsome face and messy brown hair* "
"and you haven't either*also looking at her deep emerald eyes, long honey brown hair that shimmered everytime the sun hit it.*"
"but i'm not here to talk casually. i want to know why you cut off the allowance for my store..."
"i cut off alot of money from alot of stores sakura. and when did you have your own store"
"i am the manger of the store 52. one of the only stores that has leftover money after all its bills and such.and you just ruined it by cutting off the allowance."
"so you are the manger for store number 52... i should have guessed... i read all the files about. it has the greatest sales average than all the stores that this company holds, the custmers love that place because the employees are so nice and know what they are talking about. and yet when i went to visit them yesterday, the manger was not there, your co manger didn't seem to know what he was doing.. but since i heard so many good things about i decided to visit it again today, and you weren't there neither was the co manger. so i decided that you guys were unresponsible and cut off the allowance..."
"number one. if you let the co manger explain where i was maybe you could have understood why i was gone. today i was in the hospital."
"and why was the co manger with you? ' are they in a relationship?' "
"because i fainted while watching your report on our company... so he and one of my other employees took me to the hospital"
"and what did i do to make you faint"
"you came back."
"and how has that affected you so much that you had to go to the hospital"
sakura was getting really annoyed by his stupid questions...
"how has that affected me lets see. 10 YEARS AGO YOU LEFT ME MAKING ME BELIEVE YOU WERE IN LOVE WITH ME BREAKING MY HEART PUTTIN ME THROUGH PAIN THAN YOU COME MARCHING INTO JAPAN ACTING LIKE YOU OWN THE PLACE!! THAN GET RID OF MY STORE ?? HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF I DID THAT LI?!"
syaoran winced as she called him by his last name...
"well kinomoto... i thought i didnt' care for me. why would you care if i left. i told you how i felt and you didn't respond.. i didn't think you loved me... "
"well, i'm soo sorry for not telling you... maybe i should regret for being worried about you 24/7 for the past 10 years for thinking about you, for trying to contact you, for not trying to get over you, for still loving you... i truly do since you seemed to turned into a heartless man."sakura replied getiing close to tears
that hurt syaoran and angered because sakura didn't know the full reason why he had left her...
"soo are you saying i didn't suffer?! after i told you i loved you, i got a call telling me that my father had died. my mother told me not to tell anyone. and when i was in hong kong, i found out they lied to me. they wanted me to come back and start acting like i was going to be a leader, i thought of you 24/7...i longed to be with you, i wanted to come back and tell you everything.. but i couldn't you know why? because the stupid bastards wouldn't let me. i'm sorry sakura if i hurt you. but i suffered as much as you did"
sakura broke down in tears... she felt guilty, lost, afraid. confused.
"well, i am sorry. for all the bad things that happened to you. but if you take away this allowance you are taking away my life.after you left i found out that i was good at advertising so i started working here. to keep me from thinking of you.from keep myself from killing myself." sakura whispered and left with tears that stained her lovely face...
syaoran stood there stunned. he watched sakura leave. sakura wanted to kill herself? da cheerful girl who always made anyone smile, the girl who could get anyone feel good about themselves without telling a single lie. the girl who always tried to find the good in people.wanted to kill herself?? after all the years of suffering the girl he loved and longed for wanted to kill herself because he was gone... she loved him enough to kill herself. and she still loved him...
'but she regrets it...xiaolang...' syaoran thought as he was replaying what she had said to him...' she regrets it...'
outside..
"sakura are you alright?"
"yes minoo. just a little upset, come on lets go."
minoo followed silently.
office.
"ms. oh please find out where the manger of store number 52 lives and also find out her phone number..."
"yes mr. li"
she punched a few buttons and printed out the phone number and where she lived...
"here you go mr. li"
"okay..." he took the paper and read it... than he smiled as he walked back into his office...
