Hi there! This is the second first chapter of A.D.T.C.T.Y! So I hope you enjoy!

-----------

It's been 4 years since that fateful day happened. Yes, Syaoran Li was 16 years old when he fell in love with the girl of his dreams.

Syaoran was now 20 years old and is still the leader of the Li Clan. He's currently in a Hong Kong University.

Syaoran still thought about Kimura. The cute girl with long auburn hair and shiny emerald eyes. The one that was always happy. Syaoran would never forget such a special person. No one could. Everybody in school heard about what happened. They've been much nicer to Syaoran, because used to, some boys hated Syaoran for stealing all the girls with his looks, but now they show sympathy.

+In Class+

"Good morning students." the teacher said. "Today, we will be doing a special project. We will be doing community service. We need to help our environment."

Everybody started to talk about the project. Syaoran just dazed off staring outside of the window. Eriol, who sat next to him said, "Hey Syaoran, want to be partners with the three of us?"

Eriol meaning, him, Tomoyo, and Meilin.

"Yea, sure." Syaoran replied. Meilin looked at her cousin and smiled sadly. Meilin pulled Tomoyo's arm and led her to a corner, as they started talking. Eriol just looked at his buddy and started talking.

"So, what do you think about this project Syaoran?" Eriol said trying to start a conversation. Ever since that incident, Syaoran never talked that much anymore.

"Eh, its okay I guess…" he replied still looking out the window. Eriol smiled sadly.

+Tomoyo and Meilin+

Meilin sighed. "Syaoran doesn't seem well doesn't he Tomoyo-chan?"

"Yes, do you think he's still sad about what happened 4 years ago?" Tomoyo replied.

"It seems so, he hasn't really talked that much. I know inside he is really breaking down, but he just doesn't show it on the outside. I hear its because on the letter, Kimura-chan told Syaoran to promise her not to cry."

"And of course, that's a promise he'll keep forever, just for Kimura-chan." Tomoyo said looking at Syaoran and Eriol.

"He bottles up those feelings and sooner of later, his heart will be frozen to ice." Meilin said sadly.

"Yea…we need to find someway to make him feel better." Tomoyo said.

"Right! FOR SYAORAN!" Meilin shouted but only her and Tomoyo could hear.

"We'll fill Eriol on this later!" Tomoyo said smiling. "We're going to be together again, and I guarantee that!"

"And we promise that, right Tomoyo-chan?" Meilin said smiling.

"Hai!" Tomoyo replied.

+Community Service Place+

"Good afternoon students. I am your instructor, Souza Mankato. Here are your tools for picking up the trash, and make sure you wash your hands after so we can have lunch! Just think of this like some kind of fieldtrip. Happy cleaning!" Souza said.

All the students went up to a counter and got some gloves so they won't get dirty, trash bags to put in the trash of course, and some trash picker uppers. Each group had had 4 people in it, 3 are the picker uppers, and 1 is the trash bag holder. Syaoran was one of the picker uppers. He didn't really feel like picking up any trash, everybody was having fun. They were currently in a park and he sat on a bench looking dazed out again. He started to look around to see incase if anybody saw him NOT picking up trash, as he looked straight, there was a girl in a phone booth. Her short auburn hair reminded him of Kimura. She turned around and Syaoran saw the most beautiful emerald eyes he's ever seen, just like…KIMURA!

There wasn't that much people with that kind of nicely done auburn hair style, or emerald eyes. It can be possible if it was Kimura, but wait, Kimura is dead. Syaoran lost all hope, but then he started running to the phone booth again.

'What if, what if kami-san gave her another chance? What if, what if she's still alive?!' Syaoran thought in his head. A huge truck came passing by, it was a big traffic, who knew there would be traffic around a park? Oh, of course, a festival.

Syaoran waited for the cars to pass through, when it finally did, the girl in the phone booth disappeared. Syaoran's eyes widen. 'It might be true! She may still be alive!'

Syaoran ran all the way back to the community service and talked to Eriol, Tomoyo, and Meilin.

"Guys! I saw her! I saw her! I saw Kimura!" Syaoran said to his friends. All three of them looked at Syaoran as if he was crazy.

"Syaoran…Kimura-chan…she, she passed away." Tomoyo said sadly.

"Ne, Syaoran, lets go bring the trash bag to Souza, we got a lot." Meilin said trying to change the subject.

"Yea, lets go." Eriol said.

"You guys don't believe me don't you? I'm telling the truth! I saw her! Or, someone who looks just like her." Syaoran said.

"Syaoran, we do believe you saw someone that looked a lot like Kimura-chan, but she passed away, and we're sad about that too." Meilin said.

Syaoran sighed. How was he going to explain to the three of his best friends that he saw a girl that looks JUST like Kimura? Well, he'll have to figure that out somehow on his own.

The community service job was over, and everybody was eating lunch. Syaoran decided to eat on his own on the same bench he was on earlier. He looked at the telephone booth where the girl was before hoping she would come back, but to his disappointment, she didn't come back. He went over to the telephone booth and went inside. The air inside smelled like fresh cherry blossoms, why would a crappy telephone booth with dirty books inside have a fresh smell? Of course, from the girl who was in before.

Syaoran observed everywhere, hoping to find anything to find that girl again. He looked on top of the telephone and found, a wallet. He opened it up and saw an I.D with a picture of a beautiful girl with short auburn hair and emerald eyes. As soon as Syaoran looked at the girl's eyes, all he could think about was, 'Kimura…' Syaoran stared intently at the I.D and saw it belonged to a girl by the name of…Sakura Kinomoto.
