Chapter 17
DAIDOUJI'S MANSION
Sakura and Tomoyo were now in their rooms. Sakura was with Lisa, "Lisa, please fix now our things" she said as she lies on her bed and stared at the ceiling.
Lisa was in the walk-in closet then walked towards her. She sat beside her, "Why? Is there any problem? I know this is about Syaoran" she said reading what's in her mind.
She looked at her with tears falling from her eyes. "I just can't forgive him" she started. "That's why I don't like to have a formal relationship. I always cry because of a man!" she said.
Lisa smiled, "Honey, that's a part of love" she said. "Anyone who is in love always cry" she added.
She smiled back while wiping her tears away. "I've decided that I'll give him a letter before we go" she replied.
Suddenly, her cell phone rang inside her cell phone. She got it from her bag which was just beside her and answered. "Yes hello" she answered trying to hide that she is not crying.
"Sakura, it's me Mei Lin. I just get our tickets, I will going to give it to you personally" she replied making Sakura smile slightly.
"Okay then, bye" she said as she just put her cell phone beside her. She watched Lisa to fix her things. She stood up and walked towards her, "Lisa, I can fix this now, go to your room and fix your things" she smiled.
"Are you sure? I can do this besides this is about to finish" she asked making Sakura nodded yes. Then she left her room while took a last glance to her.
Sakura started to put all her shoes in one of her bags. She put all her cosmetics in a big box. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door making Sakura jumped. "Damn it" she muttered. "That's open" she yelled.
Mei Lin got inside the room and finds her. "Where are you?" she asked as she got inside closing the door behind her.
Sakura got from her walk-in closet, sweating. "Here" she smiled.
She shook her head and gave her two tickets, one for her and one for Lisa. "Here, our flight is 1 o'clock in the morning. Too early but you told me the earliest flight so I get it" she smiled.
She grabbed it and put it inside her bag. "Thanks just make sure that nobody in your house know that we are going back to New York and we can meet at the airport at 11?" she reminded sitting on her bed.
She nodded, "Fine, I should go" she said as she kissed her on the cheeks even she was full of sweat on her face.
She smiled, "Bye!" she waved at her. Then she got back from the walk-in closet and saw that she was already finished. She got inside her bathroom and took a long bath. After an hour, she put on her night gown. She went to Lisa's room and saw that she was still packing. "Lisa" she called.
Lisa looked at her, "Yes?" she asked as she sat on her bed beside her bags.
"Uhm… Our flight is 1 o'clock in the morning and can you please wake up… 10 o'clock later? I am so sorry for doing this. Don't worry I will tell to Dad to let you sleep once we get there" she grinned.
She smiled at her while glancing at her wristwatch, "It is already 7 o'clock in the evening, I have two hours to sleep" she said.
She nodded, "Okay then, I am going back to my room" she said. She then went back to her room; she sat on her desk and got a piece of paper and pen. She started writing,
Syaoran Li,
By this time you read this I am now in the airplane to New York. Yes, I am going back there. And don't you dare follow me or else… I'll kill you! Li, you know that you are the man that I'd ever loved but you hurt me… And until now, I am hurting and I am so damn shit that I can't learn to hate you! I still love you… Anyway, I want you to take care of yourself, once I am gone. Always buckle your seatbelt in your car when you are going to go somewhere! Eat right! Okay, I sounded like your mom now! But still, do it! For me! And can you please ignore Suzuki for me? I hate her! That bitch! And can you learn how to tie your neck tie? And to fix yourself! Sorry, for leaving you… I need to do this! Okay… don't you dare follow me please! Let me think! Let me be alone! It's not that I don't like to be with you! Please understand me!
See you when I see you! Remember, that I will always love you!
Sakura
Tears began to fall on the paper. She quickly wiped them away then she folded the paper and put it in an envelope. She went to Tomoyo's room. Tears were still falling from her eyes, "Why am I crying?" she whispered. She knocked on the door and waited for it to open. She didn't bother to wipe her tears away.
Tomoyo opened the door and saw Sakura crying. She quickly hugged her tight, "Sakura" she said as she also cried. She let her go and wiped her tears away. "Are you sure that you want to leave?" she asked.
She nodded with a smile. "I am very sure, in fact I have our tickets now" she said. "Well, Tomoyo please take care of yourself! And take care of your relationship with Eriol! And I want you give to Syao—Li for me" she said giving her the envelope with the paper she wrote inside.
She nodded, "Okay, I will" she smiled.
"And can you please watch him; I mean take care of him also. Yell at him when he didn't fix himself and when he didn't buckle his seatbelt" she laughed sadly remembering their good moments with each other.
"Sure" she answered as she got the envelope from her. "When are you going? What time?" she asked
"Our flight is 1 o'clock in the morning so we need to leave here at 10:30" she answered making Tomoyo's eyes widen. "That's the earliest flight" she added. "Anyway, I am going back to my room" she said as she hugged her very tight. "And you can always call me when you have problem. And you can call me when you and Eriol are getting married!" she said making them both laugh. She let her go and took a deep breath. "Bye!" she said.
"Bye! Take care of yourself there!" she said.
Sakura nodded and went back to her room. She lies on her bed and think about Syaoran and her good times with her. She smiled sadly while her tears go out from her eyes like a waterfall.
She didn't notice that it was already 10 o'clock in the evening. She didn't even get a sleep; she just cried and cried all night. She took a deep breath and stood up. She quickly went to the bathroom and took a quick shower then changed her clothes into black tube top and black jeans. She gets her sunglasses from her bag and put it inside her shoulder bag. She stared herself on the mirror and noticed that her eyes were red. She took a sigh and heard a knock on her door. "Come in" she said. Two maids got inside and carried her things. She smiled at them then she went to Tomoyo's room. She opened the door and saw that Tomoyo was dressed already. "Going with us?" she asked with a smile.
"Yep! I am with Eriol! Sorry, if I tell it to him but I know that he won't tell it to Syaoran" she answered winking at her.
She laughed, "Okay then, at least I have somebody that I can ride with!" she joked. "I am just going downstairs and eat my… dinner?" she said. She closed the door and ran to the dining area and saw Lisa already eating. She smiled at her and sat across from her and they started eating. After some minutes, all of them left, they all ride in Eriol's car.
AIRPORT
Eriol parked his car beside a limo. They all got out, he carried Sakura's things. They all got inside the airport and spotted Mei Lin waiting in the waiting area. Sakura ran towards her and hugged her. "Hey!" she smiled.
Mei Lin looked at her and noticed her eyes. "Sakura? Do you sleep or cry?" she asked.
She took a deep breath and stared at the floor. "Well, I just can't help it" she said. They all sat on the long chair. "Did you check-in already?" she asked.
She shook her head, "I am going to check-in later because I know that if we check-in we can't no longer talk with them" she answered.
"No, it will be okay" she said. "Now, go in the check-in area!" she said as she gave Lisa and her passport to her with the tickets.
Mei Lin nodded and went to the check-in area. Sakura looked at them with a smile, "Tomoyo, remember what I told you earlier?" she asked.
She nodded, "Yes!" she said. "Sakura make sure you will take care of yourself there!" she said as she started to cry.
She smiled at her, "Of course I will! My family will going to take care of me!" she answered trying not to cry. "Will you stop making me cry?" she asked.
Tomoyo quickly wiped her tears away. "Okay" she said.
Mei Lin went back holding their passports and tickets. "Sakura, I already ask to the lady if we can still stay here but we really need to go in the other waiting area" she said sadly.
Sakura nodded, "Alright then" she replied. "Eriol, can you give our bags to the check-in area?" she asked.
He nodded and carried all their bags. "This is quiet heavy" he joked making them laugh.
Then they said their good-byes to each other. "Tomoyo, the one I gave you don't forget that!" she reminded again making her sweat drop.
"Fine" she whispered.
The three went to the second floor of the airport through the escalator. They saw the big sign 'Waiting Area for the Passengers'. They went there and sat on the long bench. Sakura glanced at her watch; it was already 12 o'clock in the midnight. "One hour left we are going to leave Japan" she announced trying to make her voice happy.
Mei Lin looked at her with sad eyes. "Sakura, I know that you are sad that you are leaving Japan" she said while holding Sakura's shoulder. "And I know that you don't like leaving Syaoran here" she added making Sakura rested her head on her shoulder.
"I just need to do this" she whispered as her tears started to fall.
She nodded in understanding. "Stop crying! I am not used when you are crying! Wait… remember, you still have the arrangement, are you ready to meet the guy?" she replied changing the topic.
She looked at her while wiping her tears using her handkerchief. "Mei, you know that I am not yet ready to meet him! You are so stupid!" she said laughing.
She smiled at her, "I am happy that you are now finally laughing but once we are in New York can you put on your shades?" she asked.
She got her shades from her bag and showed it to her. "That's why I put it here inside my bag!" she winked at her as she put back the shades.
LATER
"Good Morning everyone! Flight 214 bound to New York please proceed to Gate 4. Thank you and again Good Morning!" the PA system said.
Sakura, Mei Lin and Lisa stood up and went to Gate 4. They showed their tickets to the guard and rode to a mini bus. Then went inside the airplane, fortunately they occupied the three seats in the middle. Sakura was in the middle while Mei Lin was on her right and Lisa on her left.
"Sakura, you can sleep first, we know that you didn't sleep earlier" Lisa said with a smile.
Sakura smiled at her, "Thanks" she mouthed. She rested her head on her seat and quickly fell asleep. (I'll just skip the airplane thingy, okay!)
NEW YORK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
"Sakura, we are now here at New York" Mei Lin announced at her best friend who was staring at the chair in front of her.
Sakura smiled and looked outside through the window on her left. "Oh!" she said happily.
"We are here at New York International Airport. Please enjoy your stay here! Thank you for using Japan Airlines" the stewardess announced.
Sakura grinned as she stood up and fix herself. She led the way out and took a deep breath, "Wow! It is also cold in here too! Winter is coming!" she exclaimed as she ran inside the airport. She waited for her bags and saw Mei Lin and Lisa walking behind her. Then she got her bags and walked outside. She called a cab and saw Mei Lin and Lisa running towards her.
"You are so excited to go back home, huh!" Mei Lin said as they all got inside the cab.
"Of course! I miss Dad and Touya!" she stated making Mei Lin looked at her curiously why she didn't mention her mom's name.
Lisa told the driver where they were going. Mei Lin was still thinking about what Sakura said.
"Mei, let's go first to our house first, okay?" she asked while looking outside through the window.
She nodded in yes. "Sakura, didn't you miss your mom?" she finally asked making her took a deep breath.
She looked at her, "I don't know" she answered truthfully. She was never got closed with her mom even her mom always open a conversation to her. She doesn't know if she doesn't like her.
She nodded in understanding. "Oh" she muttered.
"Lisa, can you tell to the driver that he can stop the cab if we are in front of our subdivision" she said looking at her.
"Why?" she asked turning to her.
"Well, just do it. Okay, I… well… I don't like him that our house is that… you know" she said. She doesn't why she told her that. She really just not used to it.
"Okay" she said. She turned to the driver and told him what Sakura said.
A moment later, the cab had stopped. They all got out and got their things from the back of the car. They started walking inside the subdivision. All of the peoples and cars who they passed by greeted Sakura.
"You are really popular, huh" Mei Lin whispered making Sakura smile.
"Because of my family" she answered. She really don't like herself being called popular, she was just popular because of her family.
"Wait, in our school. You are popular too because you are talented, beautiful and so intelligent" Mei Lin said making Sakura glare at her.
"Shut up" she replied as they saw Kinomoto's mansion. "Wow! I already see our house!" she exclaimed as she put on her shades.
Mei Lin and Lisa just chuckled. Sakura started to ran towards their mansion. She then in front of the gate. She pressed the intercom on the side of the gate and heard one of guard's voices.
"Hey! It's me! Can you open the door and call three maids to get our things?" Sakura ordered cheerfully.
"Oh Miss Sakura! Why didn't you tell us that you are going back? Anyway, we are going there" he replied making Sakura smile broadly.
"Wait! Is dad and Touya there?" she bet they are not home yet.
"Not yet miss!" he answered.
Sakura nodded and turned the intercom off. She waited until the guard and other three maids come. Then they all gave it to them, "Miss! We miss you! Is your stay at Japan good?" one of the maids asked.
She smiled, "I miss you all too! My stay is good there! I've met a new friend" and I met Syaoran the man that I love she wanted to add but just kept it inside her. She passed through the garden, their pool and other places around their mansion. "Nothing changes huh!" she whispered. She got inside and looked around, nothing changed much. She saw a familiar woman sitting on the couch reading some documents. "Mom?" she muttered.
Nadeshiko looked up at her and smiled. "Sakura!" she said as she walked towards her and hugged her tight. She didn't even hug her back, she just pulled her away. "Wait, why are you here? You are supposed to be in your office, right?" she asked trying not to sound as if she doesn't like her there.
She looked at her from head-to-toe. "Wow! You changed a lot!" she said not answering her question. "I miss you!" she added happily.
She flashed a force smile, "Thanks for the compliment. Same here" she answered rolling her eyes. She saw Mei Lin got inside, she walked towards her. "Come on, let's eat!" she said with a real smile.
She nodded and looked at Nadeshiko. "Good Morning, mom!" she said. She can already call Sakura's mom, mom too and even Sakura's dad.
Nadeshiko smiled at her, "Good Morning too!" she was quiet used on her daughter attitude towards her. She went back to the couch and got back to her work.
The two women walked inside the kitchen and find something to eat. "Here!" Sakura pointed to the loaf of bread. She got it and went to her room, "Well, I guess I kinda forgot where my room is!" she joked as she turned right then ascended to the stairs and finally saw her room.
"Hope not!" Mei Lin said winking at her. They both got inside and looked around, nothing also change. Sakura jumped into her bed and saw that the maid already putting back her things in her walk-in closet.
She followed her to her bed. "Sakura, as I see to your moves you already move on about what happen to you and Syaoran" she said seriously.
She stared at her, "No, you are wrong, I can't move on. I just want to act that I am happy because I don't want anyone to be so worried to me" she whispered trying to stop her tears. She really doesn't want to talk about Syaoran.
She smiled, "Well, you are a great actress" she joked. "Anyway, I need to go to my apartment" she added glancing at her watch. She stole one piece of bread from Sakura making Sakura glare at her.
"Oh okay" she said. "Mina!" she called then one of her maids walked towards them. "Uhm… can you tell to the driver to drive Mei Lin to her apartment?" she asked as she saw her bodyguards started to guard her around her room.
"Yes Miss" Mina replied. Mei Lin and Mina left her room while she lies on her bed giving the bread to her bodyguard. She stared at the ceiling of her room and suddenly her mind started to think about Syaoran. She took off her shades and threw it on the couch. Her tears started to fell. She took a deep breath, 'By this time I am sure that he read that already' she thought. She took a deep breath and her tears can't stop falling from her eyes. She got her cell phone from her bag and dialed Tomoyo's number.
