Kaho's Diary to Nikolai

Disclaimer: Why would I be doing this fiction if I owned CCS? The lucky ladies of Clamp still do.

Simple and Confused


The last few weeks had been hectic. Explaining to the Daidouji Matriarch that you were pregnant out of wedlock, even if she is your mother, was not a pleasant task. Okaa-san wanted to sic her bodyguards at Eriol-san but I would not let her, he was a good man. Mother and I spent endless hours wondering why my boy friend just left me. But we were still at a loss, and it just made okaa-san's face go all hard whenever I mentioned his name. At this point Tomoyo sighed. At least her reaction was minor compared to Touya-san's. We had to hold him back from going on a manhunt and Li-kun wasn't helping either. He actually aided and abetted Touya-san! Which in itself was a wonder, no one ever thought that the two would actually get along. Well pigs do fly and idiots do get along, Tomoyo thought wryly.
Knocking on her door interrupted her thoughts. She always had a sixth sense when he was around. Tomoyo always knew when he was anywhere near her vicinity. But those skills didn't comfort her one bit as she stood up from the couch and walked to the doorway.
Why would he come back? Tomoyo thought dully as she walked to the doorway. He wanted out and he got out. It's dumb to come back. It's dumb. She thought angrily. Tomoyo wanted to see him. But she didn't know why.
Her emotions were a miasma of anger and confusion as she hesitated to open her door. I could just pretend I'm not at home or in the shower or anything she thought desperately. The ivory skinned lass sighed and gradually opened the door.
Tomoyo's first thoughts as she quickly darted a glance at the man in front of her was that he was not the man that she had grown to love. He looked dejected and unkempt; it broke her heart to see him so miserable.
Instead of apologizing or doing a million other things that she expected him to do, he surprised her. He simply handed her a book, a diary she noted through her shock. Then he walked away.

Aria's notes:
I think I leave you a bit confused. What's up with Tomoyo and Eriol? Well if you read really, really carefully it says they're boy friend and girl friend. What brought them together you say? That question will be revealed in further chapters. Betwixt and between the chapters of Kaho's diary you will also read Tomoyo and Eriol's history, past and possibly their future, together or apart. I'm sorry if I write really short stories, I'm just very concise about what I want to write I guess. A big mahalo to Aralana for encouraging me and asking questions, it shows you're curious This chappy was dedicated to you!
