Hellow people! This is my first fic for Cardcaptor Sakura. I love the story and I tried hard to make a good fic by it. So please, read and review…
Disclaimer : I never own any of the character from Cardcaptor Sakura (except for Syaoran's father, Li Wei Xiang, I created it). Cause if I do, I will be so damn rich right now!

The truth
The middle-aged man looked further to the setting sun. Sooner or later, he has to tell his daughter about it. There's no other reason to delay this anymore. Fujitaka took off his glasses and put it on the desk. 'This is not how Sakura's life should be.' 'It's my entire fault, I should have been aware with that Li corp.'
"Father, may I come in?"
"Sure Touya. Come in."
Kinomoto Touya came into the room. He's wearing black suit with blue shirt and a silver tie. His hand was holding a leather bag.
"Father, have you told Sakura about it?"
"No, but I intend to do so. It's not an easy thing to say, son. As a brother I think you know how painful it is."
"I do! It hurts me so much too. Are you sure there isn't any other way to solve this problem? Are you sure you want to sacrifice her feelings?" Touya said, furious but still calm.
"I love her. We all do. And still, if she refuses it, I won't force her. It's only an option to save our company. I still won't trade my daughter for business purpose. It's still her decision that matters." Fujitaka glanced towards his son.
"Knowing her all the way, she might as well agree."
Fujitaka got up from his chair and placed the book he was reading to the shelf.
"Now father, if you excuse me, I'd like to take a nice bath before dinner."
"Sure son." Fujitaka nodded. Touya left the room immediately.
'I should tell her before dinner. I'm sorry Sakura.'
`Knock knock`
"Yes?"
"Sakura, may I come in?"
"Sure father." She closed her diary and put her pen to the proper place.
"Hi sweetheart, what have you been doing?" Fujitaka kissed her forehead and sit at the end of her four poster bed.
"Nothing in particular, only writing a few things in my diary. What's wrong father? Is there anything you want to talk about?" Sakura got up from her desk and sit beside her father.
"Yes, indeed. I have to tell you something, cherry blossom. First of all, I'm very sorry. As a father, I might fail to make you a happy daughter." He touched her little girl's cheek.
"What do you mean father? I'm happy. What else could I want? I have you, I have my lovely brother. I have everything a girl wants. You made me live a wealthy life."
"But I've made a mistake. I have a contract between our company with Li Corporation. At first it was a great deal. But some of our staffs and me made a wrong step. It caused us a big debt. Our company is getting nearer to bankruptcy."
Sakura squeezed her father hand. "Father, it's fine. You don't need money to make me happy. As long as I have the two of you, it's more than enough."
"If only the problem is that easy, honey. The main problem is, the head of Li Corporation, Li Wei Xiang would like to help us with the debt. Unfortunately, he has another plan. He'd help us if… if…."
"If what father?"
There's a long pause. Fujitaka took a deep breath and continue.
"If… if you… if you are willing to marry his son, Li Syaoran."
Sakura held her breath. Her eyes were widened in shock. She gripped her father's hand tighter.
"But, sweetheart. I won't force you. It's all up to you. If you want to refuse it, which will be very understandable, I understand. I don't want to ruin your life. It's my fault and there's no right for me to make you take all the responsibilities by the mistake I made by yourself." Fujitaka tried to calm his daughter.
"Father, it's alright. I know you won't force me. But, I don't want to see the company you've built for such a long time ruined in front of your eyes. I'll help whatever I can. And if it's by marrying this Li Syaoran, I'd be glad to."
"But, you don't even know this man. And you're still young. I know you still have a lot of thing you want to do."
"I'm twenty years old. I've grown, believe me father. If you worried about the things I'd like to do, you must know that helping you and brother to protect the company is one of the thing I eager to do."
Silence fell between the two of them. Emotional moment between a father with his daughter. Then, Fujitaka took her daughter for a hug. He felt guilty to her. Making his loveable daughter took the responsibility for something he had done.
`Knock knock`
"Yes?" Sakura lifted her head from her father chest and wiped her tears away.
"Dinner is ready, miss." Said their butler.
"Thank you, Minazuki."
"Father, we should go downstairs and eat dinner. I bet brother has already down there and wait for us."
"Sakura, are you sure about it? You're willing to marry this guy?"
"Yes, I will. As long as it's for the sake of our company and all the staffs' life, I'll do whatever I can, father."
Then both of them went downstairs to the dining room. The Kinomoto family has a huge house. No wonder about it, because they're one of the richest families in town. That is before their company at the edge of bankruptcy. After his wife died, Kinomoto Fujitaka tried hard to do whatever he can to keep his children happy. And after a long hard work he received the result. His company grown big and he made the list of the richest man in town. Sakura was six years old back then. Only rose by her father, brother and a nanny who always helped her. Now, she has grown up. She became one of the most wanted bachelorette. The same thing also happened to Touya, her older brother. Even though he's already twenty five, he never seems too interested in women. Even though many women in town got head over heels for him.
"Good evening, onii-san."
"Hi, my little sister. How are you?" Touya asked as he took a sip from a glass of coke.
"Fine. I know it onii-san. Father has already told me." Sakura took a sit beside her brother and unfold the napkin.
"I'm sorry. I can't do anything about it. It's all because that bastard, Li Wei Xiang!"
"I'm okay, I can handle it."
"But how about Yukito? You loved him, don't you? You two love each other."
"I do. More than I can say. But, I can't be so selfish and ignore what will happen to the company. After all, father made a lot of effort to made it this far."
"Sakura, dear. You don't have to think about me. It's my entire fault." Fujitaka said.
"Father, a daughter would do anything for her parents. You've done so much to keep me and onii-san happy. Now it's my turn to help you."
The family turned into silence. Just a few minutes later the housemaids came into the room with the foods. They ate quietly. Just after they eaten the desserts, Sakura got up from her chair and excused herself. She knows she has to tell someone, and that person is Yukito.
~ To be continued ~
Hi! I know it's kind of slow, but I can't rush everything. I need to tell the details, ne? But I have to tell you that I'm really looking forward to continuing this story. It's only my third story on the net. But the idea keep popped in my head about this story. And I would really like to know how you think about this, so please review it after you read. Thank you so much for paying attention and May God bless you! ^^
