A/N: Today is very weird… I wanna tell you guys what happened…. It goes like this…. Just this morning I updated my fanfic…. And then I saved it…. And when I opened my computer to check it this evening and write another chapter, I couldn't open it! Why? Because my pc got a bloodhound virus! I was on the verge of tears…. Good thing that my cousin here is a computer technician/ programmer…. So she fixed it for me and reformatted my pc…. And at this moment I should be sleeping…. But no… because I will keep my word. I will write another chapter before I go to sleep!

Disclaimer? Do I always have to do this every chapter? I don't own CCS….

Chapter 4: The set up.

"Arigato, Tomoyo-chan." (Thank you, Tomoyo) Sakura bowed as Tomoyo smiled at her.

"Don't mention it." Tomoyo replied, before getting into her car again. "I've got to go now. I have a sudden meeting with somebody."

Sakura nodded back and bid her goodbye as the car finally moved away. She stared there for a moment, and then, sighed. She stared at the rock a few inches away from her, in deep thought. Up until that moment, the feeling of regret is welling up within her as she heard Tomoyo's voice at the back of her mind.

Meiling wants us to go with her to the Li mansion with his cousins! That's why she kept on calling you on your cell phone, but you weren't answering it! And the limousine? She was thinking we could ride there with them that's why they waited for us. But I cant find you and my phone's battery was low, so maybe that's the reason they left and didn't wait for us.

Sakura frowned, kicking the rock. "Next time I'll answer your calls, Meiling-chan, even if it's an errand situation."

Syaoran stared at his cousin curiously. "What's with the irritated face?"

"I told you we could've waited for a little while longer, Xiaolang!"

"Meiling, you perfectly know we can't. You've seen how many people are out there. I don't think we can even get out of the airport if we stay a little longer than were supposed to. And besides—"

He stopped in the middle of his sentence as Meiling's cell phone rang. His cousin laid a hand in front of him, signaling him to stop.

"We'll continue with this later." Meiling replied, before answering the fone. "Moshi-moshi? Li Meiling speaking." (Hello? Li Meiling speaking.)

"Meiling-chan? This is Tomoyo."

"Tomoyo-chan! I'm really sorry that the car has to go and—"

"It's all right. But Meiling, I was thinking of something… And I was thinking… maybe you can help."

"What is it?"

Syaoran sat calmly as he watched Meiling listen patiently to the mysterious caller (in his case). After a while, Meiling's smile faded, and then, began to shriek.

"All right! I'm on with it!" He still heard her say, even though he believed he covered his ears strong enough not to hear the radio inside the limo. "I'll talk to them! That's such a good idea, Tomoyo-chan! I'm pretty sure she's gonna be happy!" And then shut her cell off.

"You don't have to shriek like so loud you know…" Syaoran frowned, removing his hands away from his ears.

"Do I?" Meiling asked, mindlessly. "Anyway, forget about my shrieking, I want you to do something for me."

"Depends on what do I have to do." He replied.

"It's not difficult! Well you see… there's a girl… she's my friend and her name is Kinomoto Sakura…"

The very next day… Day four since the story began…

Sakura woke up early that day (a Sunday). Right at that very moment, she is at the kitchen, preparing breakfast for both her and Touya.

She was currently doing the table setting and was in the midst of placing the hotdogs on the table when her brother came into the kitchen.

"Ohayou, onii-chan.(good morning, brother)". She greeted blankly, sitting at the table.

"Ohayou, kaijuu. (good morning, monster)". Touya replied solemnly, expecting some yelling (and flying breads if possible) in return.

"Hmmm…"

With that reply, Touya shot his head up. His sister… not yelling at him for calling her a monster?

"Oi, kaijuu… you cooked it?" What a question, baka (stupid), he thought, yelling to himself in his mind. Who else will cook it?

"Hmmm…"

"Nee… daijobu desu ka? (hey, are you all right?)" All of a sudden he found himself worrying something might be wrong to his sister. With that, Sakura looked up.

"You were saying?" She asked innocently, not having a clue on what was happening.

"Daijobu desu ka, Kaijuu? (Are you all right, monster?)" Instead, he repeated.

"Hai, daijobu desu. Demo… (yes, I'm all right. But…)" Sakura muttered, clutching the bread she's holding tightly and began to raise it. "Kaijuu janai! Anata wa… BAKA! (I'm not a monster! You… IDIOT!)"

Touya raised his hands in front of his face on defense and Sakura was giving all her might and was half way to throwing the bread to her brother when the doorbell rang. Sakura stared at the door for a while and ten to her brother evily.

"Saved by the bell…" Touya said calmly, pointing at the door. Angrily, Sakura stood up and went to see whoeve it was who deliberately interrupted her only chance of revenge.

"Hai, hai, chotto matte! (yes, yes, wait a minute!)" Sakura shouted angrily, opening the door. "Why cant you—Oh… Ohayou, Yukito-san! (good morning, Yukito!)"

"Ohayou, Sakura-chan. (good morning, Sakura.)" It was Yukito, Touya's good-natured best friend who replied to her and who was on the door.

"Onii-chan's still in the kitchen. Do you want me to call him?" She asked, motioning him to come in."

Before Yukito could even reply, Touya came into the picture, his backpack with him.

"Oi, Yukito!" He greeted. "Nee, Kaijuu. I'm going out with Yukito for a while. I'll be back before dark so make sure you have the dinner prepared by then, you hear?"

"Nanii! (What!)" Sakura exclaimed. "Onii-chan—"

"See you. And clean the house."

Sakura would've dearly loved to protest some more, but it's too late, for the two were already out of sight. Hopelessly, Sakura fell into the couch, staring up at the ceiling. She was stuck here inside the house assigned with the duty of house cleaning in which she despised a lot, but somehow, she doesn't seem to mind at all. At that moment all she could think of was how to do her theory and how stupid could she get for letting that fat chance slip away yesterday.

"If only I could take it back…"

Her wandering mind was cut off by another doorbell. Thinking it was Touya or someone to sell a kitchen knife or something, she sighed heavily and went to open the door, just to be surprised to see Tomoyo smiling up at her, holding a paper bag.

"Hey, Tomoyo-chan…"

"Hi, Sakura-chan!" Tomoyo smiled, getting into the house hurriedly, and handed the paperbag to her.

"What's up?" She asked, checking what's inside it, which happened to be a baby pink one-piece spaghetti strap dress (above the knee by the way…) which, by the looks of it seemed to fit her perfectly. "So… what's this?"

"It's a dress." Tomoyo replied innocently.

"I know it's a dress." Sakura butted irritably. "I meant what is it for!"

"Saku… You need to prepare now." Her best friend replied, smiling as sweetly as she could muster. "Because you have a date."

An hour later… at the Penguin Park…

Tomoyo sat patiently at the bench while Sakura preferred standing as they both waited for the mysterious person they were supposed to meet for that day.

Sakura stood there, standing in front of Tomoyo as she patiently talked to someone at the phone.

"You have it all prepared? That's very great. Thank you, Hiirigazawa-san."

"Nee, Who's Hiirigazawa-san?" Sakura asked innocently, but Tomoyo preferred to ignore it.

"Yes, she's here already, I've thought of bringing her here earlier than the said time."

At the back of her mind, Sakura began to get paranoid. First, dressing me up. Then, talking to a man, and then having everything prepared and being here earlier than the said time? Ain't she gonna sell me to an Old man or something?

Tomoyo looked up far behind her for a moment and then smiled after turning her cell off. "Oh, Saku, he's here!"

Confused, Sakura looked around, behind her, and all of a sudden, her heart began to pound fast, as if it's coming out of her chest, for there he was, looking very handsome on his black fitting shirt, his pants, shoes, and shades on, with the wind slightly brushing his hair to the side of his face, as he makes his way towards them.

Sakura was stunned, for the person she always wished for is now fast approaching her.

It was none other than Li… The one and only… Li Syaoran.
