Hi everyone! I'm glad I got some more reviews while I've been gone and not updating… I'm sorry that I haven't been updating for a long time, but I really appreciate the new reviews. Also, I have just figured out that I "sort of" repeated a chapter and never finished another. So if you would reread chapters one and two, I think you will get the story better. Now to update the next chapter and here it is:

Forever Goodbye

Who's At the Door This Time?

Sakura was making the strawberry icing with sparkling eyes and a happy smile lighting her face. While she stirred the batch of icing, she started humming a
little lullaby that came from her earlier years of childhood.

Tomoyo sighed at this. She was glad that Sakura was happy and had forgotten about Li even if it was for a short time.

Tomoyo was making the vanilla icing, and her eyes looked dreamy and deep in thought. She was thinking about the many different people who she could
contact to get more resources for the upcoming research. But Tomoyo wanted to continue the research after their guest arrived and they had eaten a good portion of it too.

Sakura and Tomoyo had agreed to make the chocolate icing together, so they could talk and catch up with each other.

Tomoyo was disrupted from her thinking at the beeping of the oven, telling her that the cookies where done. Tomoyo quickly finished her vanilla batch of
icing and left it on the white marble counter while she put on her glove mitts and opened the oven.

Tomoyo inserted a toothpick into one of the melted chocolate aroma cookies and took it back out to check if the cookies were done. They were and satisfied, Tomoyo closed the oven again as to keep the cookies warm.

"Sakura! …Sakura! The cookies are done, and if you want, I'll take over the strawberry batter so you can lick the cookie batter! The cookie batter should taste
a little like vanilla extract, your favorite! And it has a little bit of chocolate chips still." Tomoyo laughed at the chocolate part, as Sakura's eyes lit up with even more happiness.

"YUMMY! Tomoyo, thank you! But we're still doing the chocolate batch together…right?"

"Yes Sakura, now get on with the cookie batch! You don't want me to wash it instead do you?"

"NNNOOOO TOMOYO!" and with that said, Sakura quickly ran to the cookie batter that was on the counter.

Tomoyo shook her head at Sakura's lit up face slowly getting dirty by the cookie batter and smiled. Then she went to Sakura's strawberry icing to finish it.

As Tomoyo finished Sakura's batch of icing, the doorbell rang yet again.
