~*~The day after Li left her life (Japan) late summer afternoon in Sakura's bedroom~*~
Sakura is lying on her bed staring strait at the ceiling. The room was silent. Sakura's eyes were red from crying all night. Kero was still sleeping. RRINGGGGGG!!! The phone rang in Sakura's room. Sakura gasp as she jumped up and pick up the phone.
"Hello?" answered the phone.
"Hi Sakura," said a familiar voice.
"Li?!" Sakura said dropping the phone in shock.
"Hello? Hello?" the voice came from the ground. Sakura pick up the phone.
"Li?" Sakura said wishing it was he.
"Yes its me," Li replied.
"Wow! It's so great to hear from you," Sakura smiled.
"Really?" Li said quietly. "I just finally got the time to call you. I'm going to start on my new mission tomorrow".
"What do you have to do?" Sakura asked.
"I have to teach a girl named Mai how to control her magic," Li paused "Yes like how I had to come and help you out when you first found about the Clow Cards."
"How old is she?" Sakura said getting a little bit jealous.
"The same age as you and me. I just met her today. She seems pretty nice and fun to hang out with. She reminds me of you".
"Oh," Sakura said quietly.
"My Grandfather said it would take two years to accomplish. That means I'm coming back in two years,"
"Oh that's great! You promise you be back?" Sakura said happily.
"Yeah, Sakura, I'll be back. I have something really important to tell you," Li said softly.
"Yeah, what is it?"
" I would tell you right now but I want to tell you in person. So will you wait for me?" Li's voice was very firm.
"Of course I will," Sakura said wondering what he wanted to say.
"Well that's pretty much why I called. Bye. I've um, I've really missed you Sakura and I can't wait to see you," Li said in a whisper.
"I've missed you too," Sakura smiled. " More then you know. Anyways bye said as she hangs up the phone. Sakura was sad because of her short conversation with Li and at the same time she was over joy.
"Yay! Li's coming back! Yay!" Sakura cheered which woke Kero up.
"Who's coming back? "Kero yawned.
"Li is," Sakura replied.
"He just left yesterday and he's coming back already? Kero said in a confused voice.
"No, he's coming back in two years"
"Why are you so excited? Two years a long time," Kero informed.
"I'm just glad that he's coming back," Sakura laid right back down on her bed humming a happy tune.
~*~Three years later at Tomoeda High School (June 6, 2003) ~*~
"What's wrong Sakura?" Madison inquiry.
"Nothing," Sakura said simply.
"Come on, you can tell me," Madison urged. Sakura took a deep
"Li said that he was coming back two years ago, but he never did. Another year past and he is still not here. He told me to wait for him," Sakura sob.
"Why did he tell you to wait for him?" Madison said as she picks up a cookie
"He has something important to tell me," Sakura took a drink, "What do you think he has to tell me?"
"I think he's going to tell you that he loves you," Madison smiled.
"That's can't be true. He's always telling me that I was a bad Card captor. It seem like he hates me. If he loves me then he would of came back a three years ago, just like he said. He doesn't love me," Sakura said quietly as her eyes filled with tears. "The only reason I waited this long for him is because I love him," A splash of tear fell from Sakura's eye.
"Don't be stupid Sakura. He loves you," said Madison.
"How do you know?" Sakura insisted.
"He loves you. He's always blushing around you and you could tell just the way he looks at you." Madison hiatus. "Sakura remember Judgment Day?" Madison inquires. Sakura nod. Madison continued, " The day when you and Li compete against each other with Yue to see who's going to be the master of the Clow. Li was brutally beaten by Yue. After Li failed to defeat Yue it was your turn. He didn't even care that he lost his only chance to become the Master of the Clow. All he cares was your safety. When you were battling against Yue, Li was trying to break in and help you. When Yue tried to erase our memories that we had with each other and the Clow Cards, Li was devastated that he will forget you. He used all his strength that he had left and his magic to stop Yue but it was no use, Yue was too powerful. After you broke away from Yue's spell and defeated him, Li ran to catch you from your fall. That was also the first time you ever saw him smiled. See he does love you," Madison finished.
"Now I'm just confused. Should I still wait for him any longer?" Sakura asked with a puzzled face.
"I think you should wait for him. That's my opinion, but don't listen to me. Listen to your heart," Madison trying to give the right judgment.
"Why didn't he come back yet?" Sakura gasp," He might have found some one. Someone else he loves. Maybe that's why he didn't came back," Sakura blink her tears back.
"Sakura don't think like that. He loves you," Madison repeated.
"No. I should move on just like he probably did. I'm going to accept Eli's invitation to the picnic at the old park," Sakura wipes her tears and went to her next class.
~*~Meanwhile in Hong Kong, after school.
"Should I go back now? I haven't herd from her in so long. Where is she?" These questions ran through Li's mind. Outside in the hall Melin walked by and stop in front of Li's door.
"Can't wait to see Sakura?" Melin teased.
"No, um yes. Is just that I'm not sure that I should go back. Over the past two years we hadn't kept in touch very well. She might of stop waiting for me. I want to go back and see her, but she probably forgot about me by now. If I go back and she's with someone else I wouldn't be able to take it. The last time I saw her, her eyes were filled with sadness" Li explained. He sat down on his bed and looks to the ground. "I'm so confused," Li sigh.
"Wow! I wasn't really expecting you to respond. I'd thought that would tell me, "Go away Melin," or "That's none of your business. Well Li, all I can say is that you should go and find out if she is still waiting. I'm sure Sakura love you and she is still waiting". Melin stop." When we were there I saw moments of joy written on her face whenever she saw you," Melin smiled and started to walk out of Li's room.
"Melin, thanks for the pep talk. Li said showing gratitude. Melin was still facing the door.
"Your welcome. I'd do it any time if it makes you feel better. I better go. See you later," Melin replied as she went out the door. Li went the phone and dialed a number.
~*~The Penguin Park (Japan)~*~
"Your not enjoying this, are you?" Eli finally let out.
"No. It's just that I haven't been her in so long," Sakura sigh. "The last time I was here was with Li," Sakura said under her breath.
"What was the last thing you said?"
"Oh, nothing. Sakura quickly respond.
"Do you want some lemonade?" Eli handed her a cup of lemonade.
"Thanks Eli."
~*~7:40 Back at The Penguin Park~*~
The sun is almost gone. Dark clouds are starting to come out. Streetlights were lit. With a school bag and an umbrella in hand Sakura walked done the same lonely road with a frown. Sakura stop and sat down on the swing.
"Where are you Li? Why didn't you come back? Are you okay? Did you found someone else? I could barely remember how you look like." Sakura muttered to herself as a car droved by. Sakura got out a strange looking book from her bag. It was The Clow Book, filled with all The Clow Cards. Sakura pulled out The Illusion Card. Sakura stared at the card and ripe the Key of Clow from her neck. Bright lights surrounded Sakura. Beneath Sakura was the symbol of The Clow.
"O Key of Clow, power of magic, power of light, surrender the wand, the force ignite. Released! " Sakura chanted as she twirled the key into her Sealing Wand. Sakura held The Illusion Card close to her face and tossed it up into the air and raised her wand. "Illusion Card, create an image of Li, release and dispel! Illusion!" Sakura command. Strong wind blew as The Illusion Card creates an image of Li. Sakura gasp. She slowly walks up to the image. Sakura stared at the image with spacious eyes. "Li..." Sakura said longingly. The hologram disappeared as Sakura softly touch the image of Li. A raindrop softly landed on Sakura's cheek. Sakura put away the Clow Book and turned the Sealing Wand back into a key. Sakura pulled out the pink teddy bear she had made for Li and hugged it. She opened her umbrella and started to walk down the road. She looks around a couple of time as if expecting something or someone. Then she heard it a voice.
"Sakura?" said a sweet voice. Sakura froze and her jaws drop. She Knew that voice, she knew it form some were. Sakura's school bag and umbrella fell out of her hand, but she held the teddy bear close to her body. Sakura slowly turned around and met up with the most beautiful brown eyes.
"Li is that you? Is this a wonderful dream?" Sakura said still staring at the eyes that she could barely make out.
"Yes its, me. It's not a dream, its very real. I'm sorry I haven't called in so -" Li's sentence was broken up as Sakura raced to Li. He opened his arms and Sakura flew right into Li's embrace.
"Li I missed you soo much," Sakura said almost breaking into tears as she looked up at Li's face.
"I missed you to. I'm sorry I haven't called in so long," Li said as he brought his hand up to comb through Sakura' s wet hair.
"This is for you," Sakura handed him the pink bear, "I was suppose to give it to you before you had left," Sakura held on to Li.
"Can I name it Sakura?" Li smiled.
"Yes," Sakura smiled back at him. "When will you be going back?" Sakura looked up with watery eyes.
"I learned from my mistake of leaving you the first time. I promise I'm never going to leave your side again," Li assure. Sakura looked into his wonderful brown eyes again. "I love you" Li said as he moved his face slowly a crossed hers. Both dripping wet, their lips softly touched for a few seconds. Then Li pulled away to look into Sakura's emerald eyes.
"And I love you...Li".
