Chapter 3
Two men where on their way home, deep frowns on their faces. They had just left the house were the book of Clow was supposed to be. But they didn't find it, and the girl who had it, had not arrived. The family had probably lied to them, they tried to hide to much information.
However, they did find out the name of the girl. Sakura. Her last name was unknown. She called herself Asymia. Asymia Sakura. But the two adults who went by that name, were not her real parents. So her real name was still a mystery.
They had to start their search all over again now the girl was missing, and with her, the book. They had to tell Yelen soon. She was the head of their family. She had sent them out on their search, and would not be happy with their failure.
Neither one looked at each other, both aware of the hard time ahead of them.
--------------------------
Yelen had just spoken to her two nephews who had been searching for the valuable book of Clow. They had failed. The girl had escaped, probably, so a new search was about to start. She had been thinking of sending the same two men, but now she reconsidered.
She would be sending her only son, Syaoran. This would be another part of his education. Doing this, he could show a great deal of responsibility. Maybe this would make him change…
She hoped so.
--------------------------
'Wake up, miss. The plane has arrived.' A voice said. She opened her eyes and saw a stewardess smiling sweetly at her. 'The plane has arrived, your luggage is in the hall waiting for you. Have a nice day.'
While the stewardess walked away, Sakura quickly got up, and got off the plane. She had not slept very well. She felt lonely, was hungry and had no idea what she was supposed to do now.
The airport was less crowded then the one in Hong Kong had been, and in noticing that, she felt much safer. She found her luggage and with them she left the airplane. The streets where crowded with people, cars and trams. Walking past stores, she tried to think of a place to go. Maybe, for the first night, she'd best stay in an hotel.
When Sakura passed a bakery, she couldn't help but to stop and buy a sandwich. There was a tall young man behind the bar, with dark brown hair. Somehow, she had the idea that she already knew him. Staring at him, she didn't realize the young man was trying to take an order from her. Sakura blushed, quickly ordered a sandwich and left the store.
It wasn't hard to find an hotel that didn't cost to much and she left her stuff at her new room. Wandering trough the city, she passed a school, named Tomoeda Elementary. The school interested her, somehow it seemed nice, and she whished that she had gone to this school when she was younger.
This made her realize that she needed education. She couldn't just hide here, she had to build a life here. And with a life, came school, and a job for the money when she needed that. So Sakura walked on, trying to find a high school.
She did find one, Seijou High School, and she entered the building. The school stood right besides Tomoeda Elementary and it was a large one and crowded with people her age and older. Searching for the reception, she walked trough the building.
At the reception was an old lady, who kindly connected a teacher, who could help her with her problems. Soon a tall man with brown hair came and introduced himself.
'Hello, I'm Terada Yoshiyuki, teacher of the third grade. I heard you wanted to attend this school?'
'Hi, my name is Sakura, and yes, I want to attend this school.' The man smiled nicely, and she relaxed a bit. 'I just arrived here, and want to start a life here. It would help me if I could finish school here.'
Terada frowned, but still smiled. 'Finish? Why didn't you finish your last school?'
'I…uhm… couldn't, I…eh…just moved to this town, so I couldn't finish school back home.' "It isn't exactly a lie, right?" she thought.
'So why did you move to this town?' Terada asked suspicious.
"What the…why all these questions? I don't have an answer! Think! Think!"
'I really wanted to move to this town, it seemed so nice.'
"Weak excuse…!"
'You really wanted to move? How about your parents? Didn't they move with you?'
"Damn questions"
'Well, no, my parents died a long time ago.' Sakura looked away, apparently not wanting to talk about it.
'Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know. In which class have you been on your previous school?'
Luckily, he didn't ask anymore questions she couldn't answer. 'Third grade, sensei.'
'Alright, I'll make you a deal. You can join the third grade, were I teach, but you have to sign in first, with an identification, and we have to be sure you can pay for the education.'
She sighed. 'I can pay, I "inherited" enough money, and I can bring my identification tomorrow if that is okay with you? It's still in my hotel room.'
Terada smiled and nodded. 'That's okay, you can bring it tomorrow and immediately start your lessons. Do you like a tour in the school? Then you know where everything is.'
'Oh! I'd love to! But don't you have classes to teach?' Sakura asked. It was only two o'clock.
'No, third grade has a short day on Tuesday. Come this way. If you have any questions, be my guest.'
'I'll will.' Sakura said, while they walked the large hall, into smaller ones. They passed different classrooms, a cafeteria and places to eat, places to study and computer rooms. Terada's class was always in room number 114, and there she had to be, tomorrow at half past eight.
When the tour was over and Sakura was about to leave, she remembered something. 'Uh, Terada-sensei? I…eh…am still looking for a place to stay. If you know some place, could please tell me?'
'Sure, Asymia-chan. I shall look for you this evening, and then you'll hear it tomorrow, okay?' Terada asked to Sakura, who smiled happily.
'Thanks, Terada-sensei! See you tomorrow!' and she ran off.
