Chapter 42
Sakura's POV
It was a Tuesday afternoon and it's been at least three weeks since the ball. During those three weeks I haven't seen Yuki or Ken. I saw him on the first day of school, but since then I haven't seen him on school campus. Did he go to Soho College or did the girl he was with go to this college and he came here often to pick her up?
I was in the same spot as always waiting for Syaoron to pick me up. Like always, five minutes after two pm, his car would be seen driven towards me. Right now was one of them.
"Hey." I opened the passenger door and got inside. I put on my seat belt.
"Hey." Syaoron said and as soon as I shut the door he drove off to the direction of the house. "So, how was school?"
"Boring as usual. A test coming up this Friday. I have to study, study, study!" I said in a fake happy voice with a fake happy face.
Syaoron grinned and looked over to me. "I'll cheer you on." Syaoron looked back to the road before we got into an accident.
"Yeah, you do that and I'll ace the test."
-------------------- --------------------
We reached the house and we both got out of the car. Like always Syaoron would walk me to the door and before he left he gave me a peck on the cheeks. Just like every time, I would burn up and quickly get inside the house not looking back.
I sat on the sofa. Like every week, I was bored to death. I never had anything to do, but study and homework. Only four weeks of school have past and I was already bored out of my life.
Since my mind was on school, then I might as well do my homework then.
I gathered my lazy self off the sofa and went up to my room to work.

Syaoron's POV
After I have drop Sakura off at home, I went straight to work just like every other day.
I was almost finished with my drawings, I just needed to do some final touches on them and as soon as I was done with them, next week on Monday, I was to present it to my father and my father's partners.
I parked my car in my regular parking spot, right outside of the entrance. I grabbed my suit case from the back seats. I exit my car and locked it with the small control in my hands.
On my way to the office like any regular day, the employees said good morning while I gave no sign of acknowledgment.
"What the?" As soon as I opened the door to my office, Ken was in there. He had his arms crossed over his chest starring out the window behind my desk. He turned forward to face me at the sound of the door and grinned at me.
"What are you doing here?" I asked as I walked into my office and shut the door behind me.
As I got closer towards him, there were a couple of visible red marks on his face. I guess Touya did him good. I wished I was the one who did that.
Without answering, Ken came from behind the desk and walked towards me with the same grin. What the hell was with this person? I don't see him for a couple of weeks and just when I thought he might stop bothering me he shows up. What did he want this time?
Ken stopped walking as soon as he was one feet away from me. He stood there this time with his hands behind his back just starring at me. Weirdo.
"What the hell is it that you want? You're wasting my time." I tilted my head up a little and asked getting impatient already with his weirdness.
"What ever happened to you and Yuki?" What the hell was he talking about? "Why did you guys break up?"
"That's none of your business." I answered knowing that familiar feeling that was growing inside of me.
"Okay then. I'll see you next Monday." I forgot Ken was going to be there at the meeting too. He was the son of my dad's brother and partner in this business.
But something fishy was going on here. Why the hell would Ken just come into my office and wait for me just to ask why me and Yuki broke up? But then again, Ken was the kind of person who was never trustworthy. Nothing he did or say was the truth.
"You know your way out." I said and set aside. Without waiting for him to exit the room, I strolled over to my desk and had a seat. Before I looked up, the door was slammed shut.

Sakura's POV
"I'm coming!" It's been at least two and a half hours since Syaoron have gone to work and I've been home. Someone was knocking on the door and I yelled as I ran down the stairs making lots of noise. With my breath still heavy, I unlocked the door and swung opened the door.
"Yuki..."
---------------- ---------------------------------------
"Here's some a coke. I don't have anything to drink here sorry." I set the coke in front of her. We were sitting in the kitchen. I sat across from her and wondered what she was up to. She didn't come and visit me on daily bases, actually she never came at all. Why did she suddenly come over?
"It must be a shocker that I'm the one visiting you of all the people." She got that right. I was thinking it was going to be Tomoyo, but it wasn't. "I'll get right down to the point as why to I am here." Yuki said while opening the can of coke. That was a good sign right? She was welling to drink the coke I offered her.
I continued to sit and stare at her. What ever she had to tell me was probably something important, or maybe not at all.
"I'll start out by saying, I quit work over at Syaoron's." I was quite shock. I looked at her even closer than before. I knew that Yuki had been one of their best models at Alibi Sports Car, but why quit? "I decided to move to the states and start on something new." So she didn't want to work with cars anymore and she was planning to move to the states? Did Syaoron know about this? "And the other day, Syaoron knew Touya was here because I over heard a conversation between him and some guy when I went to his company to pick up some drawings they were welling to share with Alibi." So that's how she knew. I guess Touya and Yuki had no relation then. "That's really all I came here to tell you." This was short. "And Syaoron will know soon, because I turned in my resignation letter today."
"But why?" I asked still feeling a little shock.
"It'll be better that way. It'll be easier for me to forget every thing here in Tokyo. Oh yeah, I'll be leaving this Friday."
"So soon?" I couldn't believe she was leaving so soon.
"You know something." She paused to take a long look at me before she spoke. "I think I know why I didn't like you." Didn't like me? So did it meant she liked me now?
"What?"
"You seem to forgive everyone who's done you wrong." She leaned in forward a little bit. "That's why all I can really say is sorry."
I was taken a back a little. She hated me just for that? Was I suppose to hold a grudge against everyone?
"I think that's why Syaoron likes you." Yuki said and stood up from her chair. I quickly stood up from my chair too.
I walked her to the door. Yuki quickly put on her shoes and opened the door.
"Oh, and before I go, don't ever trust Ken. He's still the bastard from four years ago." I was confused. The same Ken that Syaoron didn't feel comfortable with?
I confusedly nodded my head yes. "Okay."
"Syaoron hasn't told you yet?"
"No..." What was it about Ken that I didn't know about? Was he that dangerous?
"You should ask Syaoron to tell you, but no matter what, stay as far away from him as you can. He's up to no good."
"I will."
"After seeing him at the annual ball a couple of weeks ago, I don't think he have change at all." Yuki turned on her heels and walked out of the house. I watched her go towards her car and unlock the door from the driver's seat. "I'll see you around."
"I'll see you around too." I said and as soon as she started pulling out of the drive way I turned around and closed the door.
My mind went back to Yuki's warning. I really needed to ask Syaoron what it was about Ken that no one trusted.
