Chapter 4

Do We Know Each Other?

15 years later, Sakura had forgotten about Syaoran, all she remembered was the face of a young boy who cried at night. Tomoyo, still living with her, was able to buy a new house with the job she had gotten when she was 15. Sakura and Tomoyo lived there together with no one else except Tomoyo's boyfriend who would often come and stay the night over there. He called it his second home. Sakura had never had a boyfriend before, she refused to, it was like just going out with someone who she never knew and wouldn't ever know, she knew no point to dating. With Sakura being 23 and Tomoyo 24, Tomoyo had twin girls which when she was at work, Sakura had to look after. One was named Madison, and the other, Yung. They were both angels though, Sakura had no problem looking after them for 4 hours each day, they were only 2 but they knew what they could and couldn't do.

Syaoran also had forgotten the Sakura he knew long ago, all he remembered was the little girl who ran in the lily field every morning with her beautiful white dress flowing in the wind, wearing her Sakura crown and had beautiful auburn hair and green eyes. She would always cheer him up every night when he started to cry, but now that was his faded and only memory of the little girl. Syaoran still lived with his "father" who had betrayed him then came to pick him up when he finally became happy. Syaoran was the only one who worked while his father sat his lazy ass down in his living room and watched television all frigin day, he didn't like that idea, he was allowed to leave the house by law, but his father would just come after him again. He had tried before.

Syaoran finally, behind his father's back, decided to buy his own plane tickets to Tokyo Japan and live there alone where he would be happier and wouldn't have to basically be his father's slave. But since he didn't have enough money to just go right away and buy a house to live in, he searched in the apartment for rent ads until he could get his money. Turned out there was an apartment in the Kinomoto residence, he would stay there, he didn't know why but for some reason he thought he knew someone with the last name Kinomoto.

When Sakura received news that she was to have the new visitor at her household, named Syaoran Li, she was very excited, he was going to arrive in 3 days, and she had to clean up the house. Her house was humongous, with Tomoyo working as a doctor and part-time vet, they had tonnes of money. Sakura spent the next 3 days cleaning, when she had told Tomoyo about the new person, she too was very excited, and with watching the twins, Sakura had to do a little bit of cleaning ever day and had to get Tomoyo, to for once, clean her room!

When the day came that Syaoran was coming, Sakura was in the living room all day, waiting, he arrived at lunch time. Sakura greeted the new guest with a room to stay in and a big happy smile. But for some reason, she thought she knew this boy before, chestnut hair, amber eyes, tall, blue jeans, white, long sleeved shirt, but she still had no idea.

Syaoran felt the same way, after looking at the auburn hair, emerald eyes, long, white dress, by the name of Sakura, he thought he knew her from somewhere. Tomoyo, having not remember any boy from when she was 4, didn't know this boy at all.

"Madison, Yung, come greet our new guest!" Sakura yelled up the stairs, she was watching the twins since now Tomoyo had to leave as soon as Syaoran got there.

"Okay!" Two voices called down the stairs. When they arrived they were greeted with a soft hello and greeted him with a hi and a hug.

"Are they yours?" Syaoran blurted out.

"What…no, they're Tomoyo's, the girl who just left, this one's Yung, and this one's Madison. I haven't even really…you know dated anyone before, I'm usually too busy to, I watch the house, the twins and I just don't have the time. Tomoyo works 4-6 hours a day, the twins are only two, and she doesn't want to send them to day care because she says they're too delicate." Sakura chuckled.

"Are you the new boy? We like you, what's your name?" Yung asked. "Mine's Yung!"

"And I'm Madison!"

"I'm Syaoran, yes I guess I'm the new boy, you can all call me Syao if you want." Syaoran replied, laughing at their cute voices. "I like you too!"

"Aunty Sakura, can we go show Syao to his woom?" Madison asked.

"Yep, I'll be down here if you need anything." Sakura replied.

"Arigatou Sakura." Syaoran thanked.

"No problem, but before you go, ano… do we know each other from somewhere?" Sakura asked suddenly.

"I'm not sure, I was thinking the same thing…maybe we do. You look familiar." Syaoran replied and was tugged by the twins to go up the stairs to the spare room.
