Chapter 3: Ni Hao, Ying Fa

When Eriol left Li, this is what happened to him.

"I can't believe Eriol just left me for Daidouji. sigh Well, that will be him. They really look like a couple." Li walked when he saw an unwanted scene.

"Listen here, Sakura!" Mei Lin shouted as she pulled Sakura's hair.

"Aw Mei Lin. Stop it." Sakura pleaded.

"(pulls harder) Shut up! What's the question for earlier?"

"What question?" Sakura asked, feeling much pain.

"You know, about the man I like! Do you have something in your sleeves?"

"No I don't."

"(slaps her to the ground) I don't believe you bitch!"

"(sits up) I swear I don't have nothing in my sleeves."

"Hmph! Whatever! You won't get to do it anyways. I'll make sure mother hears about this." Mei Lin said as she walked away.

"But, I promise, I didn't have anything planned." Sakura stood up and took her little lunch. She rested her back on a Mango Tree behind her. She

"Tomoyo will ask me why I got this slap." Sakura said while gently brushing her slapped cheek.

"Isn't that the Kinmoto girl? What the heck just happened there?" Li asked, confused. "I better ask." Li walked to her calmly. Sakura looked at him and saw him smile. She blushed a little. She felt warm when he smiled.

"Who's this? What does he want?" Sakura asked herself. Li sighed and sat down with her.

"Uhm, may I ask who are you?" Sakura asked, afraid.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you. My name is Sharoan Li. What about you?"

"Ok, my name is Kinomoto Sakura. It's nice to meet you Li."

"Sakura? Means cherry blossoms, right?

"Yup!" Salura answered in glee.

"Then, Ni Hao, Ying Fa."

"Eh?" Sakura asked confused. Li chuckled at this.

"It means, Hello, Sakura or Cherry Blossoms. It's in Chinese."

"You mean, Ying Fa means Sakura or Cherry Blossoms?"

"Yeah." Then, silence covered the both of them. Sakura couldn't help to ask. If he saw something earlier…………. But, he seemed too calm to have seen anything. She knows that but, her lips couldn't help it. The words must come out…………………

"Uhm, Li-san?"

"Yeah?"

"Did you see anything?"

"What, about the raven haired girl?" Li answered calmly.

"Yeah." Silence fell above them for awhile. "Li-san?"

"What?"

"Promise me you won't tell anyone about earlier."

"Ok then, I promise." Li answered. "I kinda understand you, Kinomoto."

"Please, call me Sakura. And what do you mean by, understand me?"

"Before that, Sakura, tell me why she was beating you up."

"I can't." Sakura answered in shame.

"Why not?"

"I just can't, I'm very sorry, Li-san. (stands up) My friend is waiting for me." Sakura was

"Huh? Li-san?" Sakura asked.

"Please, tell me. I won't hurt you." Li said, not showing his eyes. "I want you to trust me."

"(smiles) Sure." Sakura sat down with Li and they chatted about this and that. (Sorry about the mushy, mysterious thing, just can't think of anything else.)

"So, Sakura, can you answer my previous question?" Li asked as he munched on his Chinese food.

"Huh?" Sakura asked.

"Why was she hurting you?"

"sigh I haven't told anyone about this and please, don't tell anyone too." Sakura made sure.

"I promise." Li assured.

"Oh, the girl you saw earlier, she's my stepsister, Mei Lin."

"You're what?"

"Stepsister."

"Then, why was she hurting you? Isn't she supposed to like you?"

"No. I don't think she would even try."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"You see, my real mom died when I was very little. My father married another woman, Kee Fyrurei."

"Kee Fyurei? She's Chinese then?"

"Yeah, she and Mei Lin. Then, my father vanished, taking my older brother."

"Wait, wait, wait, you have an older brother?"

"Yeah. I don't even know his name even my dad and real mom. I haven't got a clue of their real names. Not even of what they look like."

"Then, why was Mei Lin hurting you?"

"She blamed my dad of making her mother sad. I know, Fyurei loved my dad very much. I can see it in her eyes."

"If she loved your dad, why torture you?"

"Because, she was also angry. I don't know how it hurts but I know she's very hurt. And

for payment of my father, I just have to suffer."

"What? That's unfair! You don't even know that you're father will leave!"

"(covers her eyes by her hair) I know that Li. Sometimes, I also want to hate my father, but, I know it isn't right. All I wish for now is to see him and happy and also my brother."

"Sakura, you're too much of a hero."

"Yeah, I know that. A lot have told me."

"Does anyone beside us know about this?"

"No, not even Tomoyo."

"Why? She's your best friend, why doesn't she know?"

"Because……………."

"Because?"

"Mei Lin told me not too."

"She told you not too, then why tell me?"

"Come on Li, stop barging through my life!" Sakura suddenly shouted. Li looked at her with surprised amber eyes. Sakura calmed down and apologized.

"I'm sorry, really I am. I was just getting………….."

"No, (stands up) It's ok. I should be the one to say sorry. You were right, I was barging too much of your private life. I'm very sorry."

"(stands up) Why don't I show you around? I think you would like our school." Sakura suggested.

"(nods) That sounds fine to me." Li answered. They smiled, carried their lunch and walked around the school campus. It's was a private school, Sakura was entered in because of her skills which means she studies here for free. Fryurei doesn't really like it but if she declines, they'd be suspicious.

"So Li, what do you think? It's fine here, right?" Sakura asked with a cheerful tone.

"Yeah, just not like Hong Kong." Li answered, looking around.

"What does that mean, Mister?" Sakura asked as she puffed her cheeks. Li laughed at her and she smiled.

"Nothing, really. It's really nice here." Li smiled. Then, his eyes roamed around the campus. Suddenly, his eyes caught a figure.
