L.W: I forgot to say sorry if I didn't pair Tomoyo and Eriol but don't they make a good uncle and niece? I want to be different since nobody dared to make them relatives. How naughty of me. Anyway, I'm really sorry, I hope you will still have the urge to read my story.

I want to thank Sakura Lover for reading another fic of mine and to Kawaii-Libra-Waziha-chan for continuing reading my story. Without you this wouldn't be possible.

(cry!!!!!!!) Geez, so dramatic am I?

Anway, I'm so sorry if I updated the story every now and then. The reason is I usually read this chapter and if I find errors, I remove the this chapter and I reedit then post it again….









Sakura went to the library after her algebra class. She went there to study her test, which she unfortunately failed. However, before she start to review she thought first of writing to Mr. Clow Reed.

Dear Daddy,

You will never guess what happened to me this morning but promise me that you will not hate me… I failed the exam I took last week! I did my best but… forgive me daddy. I'm not that good when it comes to numbers. I'm



"Kinomoto?" Someone called her. Sakura right away put the letter to her bag and then look back at the man who called her.

"Hi!" Syaoran went in front of her. He put down his book and pulled the chair then sat down.

"Where are Meilin and Hiiragizawa (he was looking for Tomoyo, if you got confused)?"

"They went out to eat." Sakura said it sadly. Syaoran noticed the paper with red marks under the bag.

"What's that?" He pointed out. Sakura starts to think of a lie that Syaoran will probably buy. However, while thinking of a better reason she didn't notice that she was too obvious by making troubled face.

Syaoran forcedly took the paper Sakura was trying to hide.

"Hey!" Sakura exclaimed but warned by the librarian. Syaoran looked at her test paper and made a disgusting face.

"I failed OK! So can you please give it back before I snatch it from you!" Sakura said.

"Mr. Eiji is your math teacher, isn't?" He grinned evilly. On the other hand Sakura just nod.

"He's still the same. I understand you for failing his math class. He's not a good teacher but this is just a simple test are you really that"

"I'm not stupid! Its not my interest!" She cut of.

Syaoran putted down the test paper and starting to study it. Sakura began to wonder what Syaoran is doing.

"What are you doing?" She asked.

"Studying. If you are interested, I will spare my time to teach you." Syaoran said it in a rude tone.

"It sounds like 'Li, please help this poor little girl who failed her math exam.'" Sakura sarcastically said. Syaoran just smiled and transferred at Sakura's side. She still wondered but Syaoran just starts to explain the test.

He discussed the math problems little by little, trying to make things simpler than it looks so that Sakura will understand. However, in her part, she was distracted of Syaoran's pretty face and the scent that almost captures every woman in the campus.

"Did you get that?" Syaoran asked after discussing the first problem.

"Get what?" Sakura was startled.

Syaoran poked Sakura's forehead with his finger, and then said, "That's why you failed the test! Where have your mind gone? To Antarctica?

Sakura still rubbing her hurt head, she was about to response back but the dynamic duo came.

"Hi! Dear cousin and Sakura!" Meilin greeted, while Tomoyo just smiled sweetly to Syaoran and Sakura. "What are you doing?" Meilin asked maliciously.

"Teaching this pathetic little girl beside me a simple algebra but it seems her mind is roaming across Asia." Syaoran teased. "Anyway, I have to go now. See you wanderer!" Syaoran then leave. Sakura eyed him on his way out of the library with an evil glare.

"Ah!" Tomoyo exclaimed.

"What? What's wrong?" Meilin began to be frantic.

"I forgot to record Syaoran's first tutorial with cherry blossom!" She teary said it. Both Meilin and Sakura sweat drop.

"Now, now, Tomoyo there's nothing to be disappointed about, he barely taught me." Sakura sarcastically said it just to calm her down.

RIIIIIIIIIIIING! The bell rang.

"Let's go." Meilin insisted. When Sakura stood up she saw a picture on the chair where Syaoran sat down. She picked it up and looked at it. It was a picture of Syaoran in a Highschool uniform and a girl. He looked younger and girl was happily hugging the arm of Syaoran.

Sakura placed the picture in her algebra book and went off.

Later that night, Tomoyo and Meilin are still awake and chatting about many things.

"Anyway, You know you have a competition for Syaoran's heart." Meilin teasingly said it.

"If you guess its Sakura, then you're wrong." Tomoyo answered back.

"You saw them this afternoon, don't you? They are like lovebirds." Meilin said it in a teasing way.

Tomoyo just smiled at her best friend and looked down. "No, its different. The way Syaoran looked at Sakura is different from the way he looked at her." Tomoyo stopped and looked back at her bewildered best friend, and then continued, "As I can see and felt so far, Syaoran treats Sakura with care just like a brother to his younger sister. There's no erotic intimacy between the two." Meilin doesn't know what to say but she agreed to her dear amie's (friend) speculations.

"You know Syaoran better than me." Meilin teases.

While the two are talking about their love interest, at the opposite room, Sakura quietly sat on her study table to continue her letter.

Dear Daddy,

You will never guess what happened to me this morning but promise me that you will not hate me… I failed the exam I took last week! I did my best but… forgive me daddy. I'm not that good when it comes to numbers. I'm--- I was interrupted by an arrogant pig!

You are wondering who is this arrogant pig. The arrogant pig is Syaoran! Well, it was my fault since I didn't pay attention to what he was saying but he badly poked my forehead and it really hurts!

I hope you are not Syaoran when you were as young as he is right now because it is a total turn off for a girl like me. But, I am grateful that he helped me in my math. Though I called him an arrogant he is still nice. He volunteered himself to tutor me but just like what I said I was dazzled by his masculine features and the scent that driven girls crazy. Are you as beau as he is? If yes, I'm eager to see you, and if not don't worry, the fact that you helped me without hesitation is better than good looks.

Anyway, before I left the library, I saw Syaoran's picture with a girl hugging him. What do you think daddy? He was younger but I like his features now than before, he looked so childish! About the girl, she is pretty, though. Its seems that they having a great time together and the picture was took at his school's festival- they are both wearing school uniforms!

Do you mind if I describe the girl? Well, the girl has a very dark almost red hair and a straight bangs. Actually the hair is very long and it's good on her. She has a charming face though it doesn't reach the level of popularity. I forgot to tell you that inside of her hair have a pigtail, I wonder why she done her hair that way.

Syaoran looked so happy in the picture. Maybe she was his ex. Do you think I'm right? If yes, what happened to them? I'm sorry if I'm beginning to be nosy but I'm a girl! (I don't need to explain, don't I?)

I have to stop from here because I becoming a meddler. But I really am sorry that I failed the test. I promise that next time I will try my best to make you happy and realized that sending Sakura to college is the best thing that you ever done. I love you!

Yours truly,

Sakura
