" Tomoyo! What happened to Eriol??!!"

Sakura shouted at Tomoyo as she spotted her crying on a bench outside the operating theatre.

" Oh Sakura!! It was awful!" Tomoyo choked as she cried non- stop into Sakura's chest.

Syaoran patted her back and comforted her.

" Now, now… stop crying… Eriol will be fine. What happened anyway?" He comforted in a gentle whisper.

Tomoyo got out of Sakura's embrace and looked at Syaoran with her red swollen eyes. Clearly, she had not stopped crying since she got to the hospital.

" E-Eriol was slashed by a man as he mistook us for his assassins and… and… it was all my fault!!! I did not run fast enough! So Eriol turned back to rescue me and… and…got…"

Tomoyo buried her face into her hands and sob uncontrollably.

Sakura stared at Syaoran who gave a worried glance back. They both hugged Tomoyo in silence.

When the doctor finally pushed Eriol out of the operating theatre, all three of them rushed to him.

" Doctor! Is Eriol okay?! Will he be fine?!" Tomoyo shouted to him as she shook his shoulders.

" I have successfully stitched his wounds up and given him some blood transfer but because he has used up most of his energy, he will still be in a coma. Whether he wakes up or not really depends on him now…"

Saying that, he walked away.

Tomoyo collapses onto the ground and stared blankly at the tiles.

If Eriol does not wake up from his coma, she will hate herself all her life. She got up quickly and ran to Eriol's room. She knelt beside him and took his hand in hers. She softly caressed his hand and whispered into his ears.

" Eriol… I'm so sorry… this is all my fault. Please wake up… I can't afford to lose you… not after I realised that we both love each other dearly… please… wake up.. onegai…"

She then leaned forward and kissed hischeeks softly.

Syaoran and Sakura watched intently outside. Sakura began to sob and Syaoran put his hands around her head and pushed it so that she was leaning on him.

" It's okay… Eriol is strong. He is the reincarnation of Clow Reed remember?"

Sakura looked up at Syaoran.

" I have a bad feeling about this Syaoran… my mother is also in a coma right now… in Japan after she suffered from a stroke… I'm scared Eriol would be like my mother and not wake up too. Please tell me he will recover?"

Syaoran was a bit shock when she told him about her mother as she has never told anyone about her before. Syaoran soften his expression.

"He will recover." Syaoran whispered as he embraced Sakura tightly.


Tomoyo woke up to find herself sleeping on the sofa beside Eriol's bed.

She ran to his side and looked down hoping with all her heart that what happened yesterday was all a very bad dream.

But her wish was not meant to be…there lying on the bed was Eriol looking very pale.

She began to sob again. She hugged Eriol's lean body and cried into his chest.

" Eriol! Please wake up! I beg of you! I still have not given you an answer yet! I still have not said that I would be your girlfriend! Baka! Wake up!"

" Ow… that hurts Tomoyo…"

Tomoyo slowly opened her eyes… did….did she just heard someone talking? Did… did she just heard Eriol's voice?

She looked up and there they were… Eriol's misty blue eyes lookinginto hers. Tomoyo was too overwhelmed and too emotional to even speak.

" E-Eriol… am…am I dreaming?"

Eriol's hands reached out to her cheeks and pinched it real hard so that Tomoyo screamed a little.

" Ahh…"

" Pain?" Eriol asked softly.

Tomoyo nodded her head furiously and jumped onto Eriol hugging him real tight.

She leaned to his face and whispered into his ear.

" And… yes… I want to be your girlfriend."

Eriol smiled and hugged Tomoyo back. She lifted her head and did what Eriol did not expect her to do.

Tomoyo bent down and kissed Eriol tenderly on his lips. Eriol was taken back for a moment but regain his thought almost instantly and kissed her back passionately.

Syaoran and Sakura stopped at the doorway and gave each other a bemused and very shocked look. Tomoyo was on Eriol with their lips locked and tongues entwined. It was a very amusing scene.

" Guess Tomoyo doesn't want her congee anymore…" Syaoran said to Sakura and gave her a warm smile.

Sakura giggled in response and they walked quietly away.


One year later…

Ringgg…

" Hello? Hi Tomoyo! You and Eriol are getting married next month? Haha… I knew you two lovebirds were going to get married sooner or later! Haha… of cause I don't mind being your brides-maid! Okay… see you at the wedding! I will fly back to Hong Kong as soon as I finish arranging the funeral. Okay… bye!"

Sakura slid her phone back into her bag.

It has been a year since she left Hong Kong after she received a phone call from her father when she left the hospital with Syaoran that fateful day. He had told her, her mother had suffered from a stroke and died peacefully the other night. Sakura had rushed off to Japan and did not even have time to say goodbye to Syaoran.

She had not heard from him since then and inside her, there is a voice telling her that maybe… he had forgotten about her.

After the funeral, Sakura booked a ticket for a flight back to Hong Kong.


" Please take me to The Ministry of Marriage please." Sakura told the taxi driver as she got inside the taxi.

It was Eriol's and Tomoyo's engagement day. As she looked out of the window, she noticed a familiar building in front of them.

It's my Kindergarten!

Memories of Little Wolf rushed back into her head.

Do you think it is possible that maybe, just maybe, Little wolf is there too?

" Sorry, I changed my mind. Please stop at the next junction! Thanks you." She told the taxi driver.

She got out of the taxi and rolled her luggage bag behind her. She slowly walked into the familiar entrance and spotted the tree she saw Little Wolf 17 years ago.

Sakura squinted her eyes.

Who is that under the tree?


Haha.. okay… I am so evil to stop there… but I will seriously not update if I don't get more than 4 reviews for this chapter… It's not too much to ask for right? And so sorry to state that Sakura's mother is in a coma so late… it was kind of cliché and rush right? Haha… sorry! Don't kill me!xp…
