Chapter 4 – Cancellation

.: Next day at school, last period, Sakura's art class – Narrator's POV :.

Paints, colours, brushes, canvas, paper, crayons, pastels, markers, pencils, erasers, oils…a huge rainbow; that's what you would describe the art room at Tomoeda Prep. Academy. (AN: Changed the school name, sorry, I should fix that in chapter one as well xD)

"…ok class, there's only five minutes left. Finish up what you're doing and clean up please. Sakura, can I talk to you." said the teacher as she adjusted her art smock around her neck.

"What is it Mrs. Tachi?"

"This is your last art project and it will be the one that's going to count for most of your mark this term. I know you're good at depicting still life, but I want you to try something different. Open up your mind to the possibilities of the world. Just follow your heart. Now I know that might sound cheesy…but, personally, I think it will help you."

"Oh. Ok." reliped Sakura with a half crooked smile plastered on her face, and started to walk out of the classroom when she heard the bell ring.

"Go home and do some thinking. Just let your imagination run wild girl!"

Sakura turned back to see her art teacher and gave her the 'sweatdrop' face (-.-)', and then kept on walking out of the classroom.

.: Hallways – Narrator's POV :.

Syaoran was at his locker getting ready to leave when all of a sudden, Meilin (AN: OMG, I hadn't realized yet that I spelt her name wrong all this time! SORRY! -cries-) came right behind him and gave him a bear hug.

"Syao-honey! Let's go out tonight!" as she held on to him from the back.

"What the hell! Let me go!"

"C'mon, let's go out to a nice restaurant!" as she pleaded while letting go of him.

"NO."

"Why not? I mean, EVERYBODY knows we're going out! I'll even forgive for going out with that art freak.!" she exclaimed.

At this time, Sakura was right in back of Meilin, unknown to Syaoran she had heard the whole conversation.

"Yeah, seriously Syaoran, why don't you go out with her?!" she yelled as she kept her head down.

"Sakura?! No no no! You don't understand!" he said. Meillin was right next to him wearing a smug little evil grin on her face as she looked from Sakura to Syaoran.

"I'm not that stupid you moron! I totally understand what you're trying to say and do!" she replied. She couldn't take it anymore so she ran away hoping that her shimmering tears wouldn't show. "Why do I cry?I" she thought as she left the building.

Syaoran couldn't believe what had just happened. He was angry; angry at himself for not mentioning this to her. FUCK! I screwed up…argh…I don't want to lose the bet against Takeo! And Meilin is getting on my nerves, I can't believe mother did this to me! She completely runs my life! He turned to see Meilin who was waiting for him to say something to her…

"I have too much respect for girls to insult them, but all I will say is: go die in a hole and may you end up in hell! We were never together, and never will be!" and with that Syaoran dashed out of the school and left. I gotta get mom to cancel this engagement.

.: The Li estate – Syaoran's POV :.

I got home about 40 minutes after I left school. Home sweet home…well maybe it wasn't so sweet... I stood there just looking at what people called a mansion. White exterior with Greek sculpted columns and blue French windows and doors. I sighed and went through the back door that led to the kitchen. The room had painted earth red walls, stainless steel appliances, polished swirled limestone tiles and smooth black granite counters. And like I guessed, I found my mom near the sink washing some cups.

"Hey mom, we need to talk."

"Oh, hey sweetie, talk about what?" she replied.

"About Meilin."

"What about her?"

"I don't like this arranged marriage."

"But I thought she was perfect. The elders said she was the best candidate that would help the Li business become even more powerful."

"Who cares?! You think sluts are perfect?"

"Watch your language young man!"

"Hmph."

"Fine, you'll have 8 weeks until you can find someone who is worth the elder's time."

"Worth their time?"

"You know how the law is. You must be at least engaged by 18 to be an eligible heir to the Li business."

"Fuck that!"

"Language Syaoran! For me please…and for father…"

"…fine, 8 weeks."

I couldn't take it anymore. I ran for my room with my bag. I hated my father. He never was or came home. He always stayed at work, even slept there. Mom would always say he was working for the good living environment we had, but when I was young, other boys would go around comparing each other's dads to find out who was the best. I was never included…because he was never there. The last time I saw him was at the Li Company Christmas party. I tried talking to him but all I got from him was: "choose the right future Syaoran", and left to go talk to some business friends. -sigh-

I got to my room, and put down my bag beside my bed and then plopped down on the soft duvet covers of my earthy green coloured bed. I wanted to talk to someone. I wanted to hear the voice of someone comforting, someone who could understand the way I was feeling.

I went to my desk and took out a file. Loads of papers, mostly all college application forms. No one would possibly understand what I was going through…

Out of impulse I went to my bag and got the directory out and called Sakura. I don't why exactly I did that, but before I could hang up, I heard the sweet melodic voice of a girl. That girl was Sakura…

"Hello?"

"Uh…Hey."

"Is that you Syaoran?" she asked with a real menacing tone.

"Yeah. Is it ok if we talk for a bit?" I said. I really thought I should at least explain about the situation we had earlier.

"-beep-"

What the hell! She just hung up on me!

I dialed her number once more.

BRRIING BRRIING BRRIING BRRIING BRRIING BRRIING

Argh! No one's answering…She must be really mad.

"You have reached the Kinomoto household. Please leave a message after the tone, -beep-."

"Uh, hey Sakura, I'm sorry about what happened before. It was all a misunderstanding, 'cause you see, I had an arranged marriage. I don't like it, trust me, and please, keep this a secret. I'm trusting you."

I guess she really didn't want to talk to me, so after I left the message I hung up and just sat in my bed.

Then all of a sudden, the phone rang. BRRIING BRRIING

"Hello?" I said, and then a familiar voice spoke:

"I forgive you…THIS time. You're lucky my father and brother are out."

"Heh. Thanks…so…"

"So?"

"About that party – "

"Still not going."

"I can't convince you can I?"

"Nope."

"…you really don't like parties do you?"

"No, like I said yesterday, I just don't hang or fit in around with your kind of people you find at those parties."

"My kind? Come on, they're not all that bad…"

"They really are."

"Naw, stop being stereotypical."

"Fine fine, maybe a tiny bit."

"See?"

"I didn't admit you were right!"

"But the fact is I am right."

"NO!"

"Yes."

"GRRR…"

"Hehe, you really sound funny when you growl."

"HEY!"

"Ha ha ha."

"Fine, I'm hanging up!"

"No no! I'm sorry!"

"Hmph. That's more like it. Beg for mercy."

"HEY!"

"Ha ha, now its my turn to laugh."

"Fine, now were even."

"Heh. That's right.,,Oh shit! Look at the time! I gotta go and finish my math."

"It's only 7…"

"I'm really bad at math…it takes so long for me to solve a problem."

"Maybe I could help you sometime."

"How about not."

"AIE! Stop killing me! I don't like being rejected!"

"Ha ha ha. Ok, seriously, I got to go."

"Fine, bye."

"Bye. -beep-"

It felt as if I had been talking to her forever…I just wish I could have talked to her longer…but even if it only was a small conversation, talking to her made me feel much better…

Sorry for the short chapter. I have my whole outline and this was the only place I could really stop to add some suspense. If you're still wondering why Sakura was feeling a bit sad last chapter, you'll find out next chappie for sure.
