"They're late. Again!!!!" Eriol grumbled as he looked at his watch the
fifteenth time in five minutes.
"Eriol. Rule number one, and I remembered mentioning this to you." Syaoran said, "You have to be patient when you are waiting for girls. They take forever to get ready. But once you see them, they will look so sweet and pretty that you would have forgotten that you waited for years meet you."
"Tell me about it." Eriol sighed.
"You are too impatient. It's only five minutes and they might be caught in traffic. Please continue waiting for them and quit complaining!" Syaoran shook his head and stared at the road.
His beloved Sakura will be coming. Finally, after the movie a few weeks ago, he is going to see her again. Syaoran's heart beat faster. 'Sakura, one day, I will find out why you shut yourself out.'
"Syaoran! Eriol!" Sakura and Tomoyo called out.
The two of them turned around and smiled, although they are for different reasons. Eriol saw Tomoyo and his heart stopped beating for a moment. She was clothed in jeans and a white spaghetti shirt with cherry blossom. She let her hair down, allowing the wind to blow through it. Her eyes sparkled with enthusiasm and ecstasy when she made eye contact with him and gave him a big hug.
Syaoran just stood there smiling at Sakura until she blushed. He made his way towards her and whispered, "You look so pretty." When she blushed even harder, Syaoran just couldn't help but lean forward and kiss her on her forehead. However, as soon as they make skin contact, Sakura jumped out of her skin and took a few steps back, shaking her head.
"What's wrong Sakura?" Syaoran said, feeling upset that Sakura somehow backed away from him.
Sakura shook her head even harder. She won't tell him him, not in front of Eriol, not now, when they were supposed to have a great time together.
When Syaoran took a step forward again, she backed away from him. When Syaoran almost made a grab for her when Tomoyo interrupted.
"Hey, let's go. I want to see all the stores. Rika said that they have quite a lot of clothes for sale." Eriol just shrugged and allowed himself to get dragged away by Tomoyo.
The two of them looked at each other and burst up laughing. "Dear me! Will Eriol mind going shopping with Tomoyo?" Sakura asked.
"I doubt so. I don't even think Eriol would even dare to whine that he is bored. Anyway, when it comes to Tomoyo, he will be willing to do anything."
"Well, let's make a bet, by the end of the day, by hook or by crook both of them will be a couple." Sakura held out her hand, daring him to take the gamble.
"I think so too. So, great minds think alike." Syaoran gave a wink and grinned.
Sakura just rolled her eyes and grab his hand. "Let's go. I want to win a teddy bear!"
Syaoran couldn't help by smile even more. She was holding his hands without her realizing it. It might be the first step to trust and finally realizing what happened to her.

"Tomoyo. What are you exactly buying?" Eriol asked.
"A shirt, nice presentable collar t-shirt."
"I see, but why are you always looking at men's t-shirt?"
"Because silly, it's for you!" Tomoyo just gave him a look and carried on browsing.
"But I don't need another shirt! Why do you need to buy one for me?"
"Because you always wear blue, blue and blue! I am trying to find something that is not blue for you! Here," Tomoyo spotted a maroon t-shirt and shove it to him. "Does this fit?"
"What's wrong with blue? It's my favourite colour." Eriol groaned as he tried to return the shirt to her, but she refused to take it.
"No. no matter what, you have to try. Try it for me please?" Tomoyo battered her eyelids, trying to be funny enough to make him relent.
"No, no, no!!! I don't want to try it. Maroon. Not a fantastic colour anyway." Eriol obstinately said, before looking at Tomoyo.
Tomoyo took a deep breath, trying not to feel sad and start crying at the way Eriol said no to her. She looked up, hoping she could hide her disappointment. "All right then. Let's go. I need to buy some stuff for Sakura."
Eriol watched Tomoyo walked away. After he saw where Tomoyo went, he turned his attention to the lady who sells the shirt "I want a medium size of this shirt."

"Sakura, at the rate you are eating the candy floss, you are going to grow fat." Syaoran teased as he watched Sakura ate her fourth one.
"Fortunately, I am blessed to be able to eat a lot and not grow fat." Sakura answered back, sticking her tongue at Syaoran and laughed.
"Right. You are telling me that." Syaoran muttered under his breath, as he studied her back, admiring her figure.
"Did you say something?" Sakura asked, making Syaoran blushed as the result.
"I, I..." Syaoran stammered before he was interrupted.
"Hey Squirt!"
Sakura whipped her head to the direction and stared at her brother when she spotted him. "Touya!!!!" With that, she stomped towards that direction.
Syaoran followed her and was surprised to see Touya and Yukito tending to the store.
Touya turned his attention to him after mercilessly teasing his sister and shot him a dagger stare. Syaoran returned the stare and as the result, Yukito had to break it up.
"Syaoran, do you want to try out our stall?" Yukito tried to get his attention but failed. Suddenly, Sakura screamed.
