"moshi moshi"

"momo-senpai!! I have something to tell you!!"

"nani?"

After listening at her. He announced it to the others. "and ryoma, you need to come. Now, we'll buy you clothes"

0o0o0o0

"huh?" Sumire heard her phone ringing. She was alone in a corner looking for some jewelries. Sakuno is with Hanamura looking for gowns at the different store. Tezuka? What's the reason? Then she answered the phone.

"Hello"

"Ryuzaki-sensei, it's me, Tezuka"

"oh! Tezuka!! Why did you call me?"

"sensei, I have something to tell you"

"what is it?"

"Echizen, He's looking for her. The news reached our ears."

"huh? How?"

"because her bestfriend told us"

"since when did ryoma started looking fro her?"

"I don't know"

"oh" so, he's looking for her. I wonder if he'll find her in time.

"sensei, can we come in your party this Saturday?"

"you also knew about that?"

" hai"

"of course you ca---wait, RYOMA's with you? You said 'we' "

"We, the past seigaku regulars"

"nani? And also, how can you come? You guys were in Japan!"

"iie. We're here, in London."

"nani????" she's shocked

" so, can we?"

"sure. And also Tezuka, please don't tell ryoma that you called me. He'll kill me"

"hai"

phone call ends

Saturday, 8 pm

"thank you for coming here, minna. Please, enjoy the party" Sumire ended her speech. She went back on her sit and surprised that Sakuno is still not present. Maybe she's at comfort room. Then she smirked. Then something reminded her. Oh, are they here already? And speaking of them…

0o0o0o0

"oi echizen!!! Faster!!! We're late!!!" Momoshiro yelled while fixing his neck tie. I wish ann's here to fix this thing. " oi, momo, move!!! You're stepping on my shoe lace!!!" kikumaru yelled while pulling the lace.

"nya, ochibi!!, your necktie's unruly!!!"

"never mind, let's go!!!"

They were going to ride a van. "ah eh, tezuka, do you think it's right if we let taka-san drive???"

"we're late. We need a fast driver." Then oishi sweat dropped.

0o0o0o0

Sakuno, where are you??? 40 minutes passed and she's still not there. Then she noticed that Hanamura's also missing. Hanamura, what did you do to her??? You're late!! Then she called Hanamura.

0o0o0o0

"Oh sakuno my dear, you're so beautiful!!!" then, sakuno smiled. "oh very well. Let's go, your grand mother's looking for you" " hai"

They were walking at the hallway through the big room in where the party's held. While Hanamura opened the door….

0o0o0o0

Oh she's here. Sumire grabbed the mic.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have a special guest tonight," she pointed her left hand at the door. ", Sakuno Ryuzaki, my grand daughter."

Everyone inside the room were shocked. Then suddenly, an applause entered her ears. Sumire could see the shocked expression on Sakuno's face. Oba-chan!!! Why?!!! Then she saw cameras heading her way.

Sakuno was wearing a baby pink, off shoulder gown. There were some silver colors shining from the waist through the end of the skirt. The nearer it reached the end of the skirt, the more silver colors are. Her hair was braided not tight at the back and she laid it hang at her right shoulder. Her bangs were a little curly that made some hairs to fly away. Her lips were color strawberry. And about the make-up??? She's not wearing any.

Then for the audience not to be disappointed with her shocked face, she smiled, sweetly. Then here it comes, people who wants to talk to her. Well, hers it comes. She thought.

0o0o0o0

"NANI?? It's traffic!!!!" momoshiro yelled. Ryoma 's looking outside the window. "Momo-senpai, please give me the address. "what do you think you'll going to do? Run?" "we don't have much time." "fine, here" "arigatou" then he opened the door, making sure he will not hit the other car.

0o0o0o0

"okay, everyone, I know many of you are already hungry, so, lets eat." Sumire announced. Then the people around sakuno disappeared one by one. "oh, I'll get something to eat, by sakuno" some ladies were saying these words. Oh arigatou oba-chan. Then unknowingly, she walked out on the room.

Mou, were am I going to? Then something flashed on her eyes while walking. Tennis courts?? Why are there tennis courts here? But still, she went there.

0o0o0o0

Sakuno, please wait for me. He was still running and sweating. Argh, why is it very traffic? Maybe because of he party. Then he looked at his watch. What!!! 10:30 already????!!!! this made him run faster.

0o0o0o0

45 minutes passed…..

She was walking around the tennis courts. Then she sat down at the bench. She remembered the first time she tried to play tennis. Then, she remembered the first time she saw him. Ryoma-kun…. She giggled when she remembered the time when she drew ryoma's face on a ball. He saw it, I wonder what's his reaction when he saw it.

Then, she remembered her dream. Ryoma died. In front of her. She can't remember it well. All she could remember is that a truck hit Ryoma because she pushed him. She pushed him because she rejected him. That would NEVER happen!!!! She screamed in her mind.

0o0o0o0

"Ryuzaki-san, sakuno, she's missing" Hanamura whispered at Sumire's ear. Then she whispered back. " don't worry, she's fine" "okay"

0o0o0o0

He already reached his destination. It's already 11:45, where is she??? He thought while she's scanning the people inside the room but still making sure he's nit noticed by somebody. With the help of his sharp eyes, he knew that she's not inside the room. Maybe outside.

0o0o0o0

After kicking that nightmare out of her mind, she saw a tennis racket and ball under the bench, she grabbed it and walk through a wall. I wonder if it became more worst. Then she began serving. Hmm, not bad. Then she saw a clock then she read the time. 11:55. Then she thought that it is the last day. But she still continued serving to forget about it. Sayounara, Ryoma…

0o0o0o0

Then, he ended up looking at the tennis courts. He was looking at it when something caught his attention. Then he smiled. But after looking on his watched he hurried running at her.

0o0o0o0

"itai!!" she mumbled when she missed the ball and it hit her right cheek. Ad because of her shoes heels, she fell down. Touched her cheek. "oba-san will be mad when she knew that I hurt myself"

"not only her" she was stunned when she heard a voice. A very familiar voice. Then she looked back when she saw a figure standing at her back.

"mada mada dane, sakuno"

Then, someone's voice entered her mind. A very familiar voice. Then she turned her head to see who the guy is. "Ryo-ryoma?"

He offered his hand and sakuno lay her hand over it. Then Ryoma helped her to stand up. "why are you here?" "searching for you" "huh?" sakuno was shocked. SEARCHING…. for me?"

" why, aren't you glad that I'm here?"

"of course I am. But I'm just wondering." (They were still holding hands, ok?)

" because, I …i—"

" because you…what?"

Then ryoma looked down then accidentally, he saw the time. What!!! 11:59???!!! Then he looked straight at sakuno. Eye to eye. It made them blush.

"Sakuno, i…i…I love you"

Sakuno was surprised. " what?"

"you heard it. I said I love you. Is that hard to believe? Do you love me too?"

Then suddenly remembering her dream, that she thought it was a sign, she replied him. " yes ryoma, I love you too" then she smiled. Then, they hugged each other. While hugging, suddenly, the lights at the tennis courts opened, and they heard people shouting, like cheering for them and an applause. Of course, both of them were surprised! "what is this?" they both said.

Then, an old woman, walked through them. "congratulations!!! You made it in time!!!"

"yo echizen congrats!!!" momo shouted.

"hurray for ochibi! Hurray for sakuno!!!" kikumaru is shouting while jumping.

"oba-chan, you made this?" sakuno asked.

"yup. All of this. Even the 'guy' that I'm telling you doesn't exist. Tohru also knew about this. We kept your phone always off so that Ryoma cant call you" then after hearing this, ryoma glared at sumire. Sumire gulped. " but still, it is a happy ending! You two are now together! I just wanted you to be together so I made all of these things" then she smiled at sakuno.

Ryoma and sakuno looked each other. Sakuno smiled sweetly. Ryoma-kun. Then Ryoma grab her waist. " sakuno," then sakuno laid her arms around ryoma's neck. Then ryoma put his left hand on sakuno's head then he pushed her head to meet his lips with hers. Then, a kiss came.

This made the people scream more. Flashes of camera's were capturing their scene, but they don't care. They were ready to be interviewed by the media. Then they broke the kiss.

"I love you ryoma"

"I love you too sakuno"
