Full House
House No. 6: So We Meet Again
"YOU!"
Syaoran's eyes began to enlarge in shock. Her again! What exactly did I do to deserve this kind of punishment? He groaned inwardly.
Sakura began to feel uncomfortable. Summoning all of what is left from her courage, she spoke up. "Anooo.. go-gomen nasai... for... waking y-you up at.. t-this t-ti-time of the n-night.. um..."
"Well, you already had waken me up. So, what's the deal? I don't have all day to listen to your stammering, ya know?" Syaoran demanded with an obvious tone of irritation in his voice.
Sakura immediately shoved a package to the annoyed actor in front of her. "H-Here's the shirt.. y-you left at the plane ye-yesterday!"
Syaoran raised an eyebrow in hesitation but then snatched the package from her. "Good bye and good riddance then." He mumbled as his right hand twisted the door handle, allowing him to enter.
"No.. Wait!" Sakura began, only to be faced with the veneer-covered door, thus hitting her face in the process. "Itai.."
What a snob he is, having no respect for women! I'm gonna show him.. Sakura Kinomoto is not someone whom he can just push around! She vowed to herself, eyes glinting in vengeance.
Ding! Dong! Ding! Dong!
The doorbell rang continuously for the span of thirty minutes, and surely, Syaoran was not enjoying every second of it as he had been covering his ears with a pillow the whole time.
"ARGH! When will that woman ever give up?" Syaoran growled, angrily throwing the pillow to the marble floor.
Sakura's voice then was heard. "Li-san! I know you're in there! Open up and talk to me, Li!" Syaoran gritted his teeth as he grudgingly got up from his bed and went back to the exact spot where he had opened the door earlier, all for the sake of shutting the girl up.
"Li..."
"What the hell do you want?"
"Well, first thing's first, Li-san. Aren't you going to let your guest in?" Sakura asked sweetly as she batted her eyelashes. "Manner.. I'm sure your parents taught you that. Ne, Li-san?"
Syaoran stepped back as Sakura smugly entered the room. Syaoran tried his best to restrain himself from slamming the door in frustration.
"Wow! Your room's so big!" Sakura gushed as her eyes swiftly traveled from one corner to another. Syaoran rolled his eyes as he settled himself on the nearest couch.
"So, what do you want?" He saw Sakura suddenly stiffen. Eh? What just happened?
He cleared his throat and repeated himself. "Hello?"
"Ah.. hai!" Sakura then returned to reality. She bit her lower lip in apprehension as she settled on a separate couch across Syaoran. Dang, now what shall I say? That i need money so please let me borrow it? Yeah right... he wouldn't agree for sure..
"So.. miss..?" Syaoran began. Surely, this woman is so unpredictable.
Sakura immediately replied. "Anoo.. hi! I'm Sakura Kinomoto." Then came another unbearable pause of silence.
"And then?"
"Ano.. I need money.. so..."
"No." Came his cold reply. Obviously, he hated money borrowers, Sakura silently noted as she sighed.
She tried again. "Eto... onegai?"
"No." It came again. Dang.. now what should I do?
Syaoran cleared his throat. "If you're done, can you leave now?"
"Ano.." The next thing she knew is that she was being dragged out by the very irritated Syaoran. She started to plead. "Matte! Wait.. I.."
(A/N: Matte, i think, means wait)
"You're just wasting my precious time. Unlike you, I still have work to attend to tomorrow."
"Watashi.. I-I'm Eriol's girlfriend." She impulsively blurted out as the name suddenly popped into her head.
"What did you just say?" Syaoran stopped short before finally pushing Sakura out. He wanted to make sure that this woman monster is not related in any way to his best friend.
"Um.. I'm Eriol's girlfriend." Came his least anticipated answer.
"Eriol?" Syaoran asked again. Please, let it be another guy named Eriol...
Sakura looked down. "Um.. Yes, Eriol Hiiragizawa."
Kami-sama, please forgive for this lie. She prayed silently while waiting for Syaoran's reply.
However, Syaoran just stared at her. Her? She couldn't be Eriol's girlfriend. He hadn't introduced anybody as his girl yet.. or could she be...?
"Li-san, daijoubu desu ka?" Sakura asked worriedly, unintentionally interrupting his thoughts.
"Daijoubu."
"Ano.. Your hand..." Sakura tearfully pointed out at his hand, which was gripping so tight at hers, almosy cutting the blood off her hand. Syaoran immediately released his hold, restoring its supple color.
"So-Sorry then. Have a seat there." Syaoran led her back to the living room as his thoughts continued to rationalize about what she had said. Then, he turned to Sakura, asking. "How did you two meet?"
"We met at this hotel a few months ago. At the hotel lobby, to be exact.You see, I was asking for a room to say, but the lobby assistant couldn't understand me.. And I couldn't understand her either. God thing Eriol came to my rescue." Sakura lively narrated. Except that it's on a different time frame.. That you don't need to know.
"And after that, you dated each other?" Sakura nodded. "I see, so what do you think of Eriol then?"
"Hmm.." Sakura chewed her lower lip in thought. "He was quite a gentleman. A fluent speaker. Very much easy to hang out with. A very hilarious guy." Okay, enough exaggeration, Sakura.
Syaoran sighed. She must be. She knows Eriol fairly well. "That's Eriol alright. So, how much do you need?"
"Ano.. enough for my three day hotel bill, food allowance, shopping allowance, and of course, my plane ticket back to Japan." Sakura slowly replied, eyes glued on the painted ceiling and fingers counting off the items off her invisible list.
"I suppose a hundred thousand dollarswould be sufficient?" Syaoran asked with an eyebrow raised.
"Nani? Hun- Hundred thousand?" Sakura almost fell down the couch in shock.
"Hmm.. fifty thousand then?"
"Er.. okai.."
"Although you're Eriol's gal, don't expect any red carpet treatment from me. So better remember to pay me back in Japan, ok?" Syaoran reminded firmly.
Sakura gave him a warm smile, a smile that moved Syaoran, even an inch. "Roger!" Shaking his head, he retreated to his room. Then, he came back after a few minutes with a piece of paper in his hand.
"Here it is.." Syaoran nonchalantly replied as he passed the cheque to her after scribbling the amount and fixing his signature on it.
Sakura exclaimed softly. "Thanks so much, Li-san!"
"No problem.."
"I have to go now. Sorry for bothering you at this late hour." Sakura apologized as both stood up and walked to the door.
"It's nothing.."
"Well, I'll see you then! Arigatou!" Sakura then left. However, Syaoran remained transfixed on her retreating figure with one question he himself couldn't answer.
Is she really the one Eriol had been talking about?
"Mission complete!" Sakura squealed in delight and satisfaction as she returned to her own room a few minutes later. She kissed the check blissfully as she let herself fall on her bed.
I never expected that the Li Syaoran would be THAT gullible... She rationalized as she munched on the food the hotel's room service had provided hours ago. After all, anybody can come up with a lame lie I did. I wonder if he knew Eriol personally...
She then shook her head in disbelief. "Nah!" Then she gazed over thesunrise scene that the hotel window was offering her."Sakura, don't worry about Li anymore.What matters now is that you got the money you need to return to Japan!" She nodded. "Woohoo.. Tomoeda, brace for my return!"
"So.. is the house alright?" Rika queried as calm as she could manage as a middle-aged man inspected the rooms inside the Kinomoto Full House. This had been the fifth inspection the housing agency had made on the said house, and both Rika and Terada had been nervous and anxious in each inspection being held. They need to know the decision and fast.
The inspector managed to clear his throat as his pen made marks on his notepad. Teradad took another deep breath as he held Rika's white and clammy hands tight when he turned to face them.
"We'll accept the offer on this house. It's quite commendable." He finally announced, closing his notepad and stuffing it into his suicase. "The money will be sent to your account within 24 hours."
The announcement surely had changed various emotions between the two people - nervous, anxious, relieved, and blissful, all in one swing.
"Yokatta.." Rika sighed as she enclosed herself in Terada's arms. On the other hand, Terada was smiling from ear to ear. At last, their problem is solved. "We finally did it. We finally did it.." He kept on repeating to himself.
(A/N: Yokatta - said when a person is relieved. More like a glad to hear that or finally..)
However, there was something nagging his conscience despite of this shortlived stage of rapture. What about Sakura? What will she do if she comes back?
House 6 finally done! Whew, at long last! -sweatdrop-
