Chapter 2
"Wh…Who are you?" Sakura asked; bewildered at all of the attention she was getting. "Where am I? Who am I?" Sakura looked blank. Her eyes were not shining, as they usually did, but were like empty green shells.
"Sakura! Don't you remember anything??" Syaoran whispered; terrified that Sakura had forgotten what had happened with the cards, and more importantly their relationship.
"Sa…Ku…Ra? Is that my name…?" Sakura whispered.
"Sakura!! Don't tell me you've forgotten everything!!" Tomoyo cried, tears streaming out of her eyes. "What about the cards, your life, and your beloved Li-kun!" she thrust her arms around Sakura and sobbed into her shoulder.
"Umm, excuse me for interfering, but we need to keep Miss Kinomoto in the hospital for observation. Have a ahem nice day…" The doctor said, walking into the ward.
"Of course, we'd best be going. Come on, everyone out." Fujitaka said, standing up and leading the way to the door. "Come on!" he whispered to Syaoran, who was sitting in a chair staring at Sakura.
"Mr. Kinomoto? Could I please stay for a while to talk to Sakura and help her to remember things?" Tomoyo asked sweetly.
"I'm afraid not, Sakura needs her rest." Sakura's father replied.

In a few days, Sakura was let out of the hospital. Fujitaka took her home, and everybody but Syaoran was waiting for her there. Touya had stopped him from seeing Sakura because he thought that Syaoran had caused her to be hit by a car, and as Sakura had amnesia, there was no one to say that he hadn't.
"Who was that boy that was at the hospital? He seemed so upset about something. Was it me?" Sakura asked Tomoyo. Sakura had lots of questions, and as Tomoyo knew everything about her, she was the best person to ask.
"That was Li Syaoran. He's from China, and you met him when you were ten. He –"
Touya stepping into the room cut off Tomoyo's sentence.
"Dinner's ready if you're hungry." He said, and then he left.
"Shall we?" Tomoyo asked, gesturing towards the door.
"Sure, I'm so hungry!" Sakura answered eagerly.

Meanwhile, at Tomoeda Airport, a boy of about Syaoran's age walked into the terminal. He had just flown in from Hong Kong.
"Ryoki! There you are!" A voice called
"Syaoran! How have you been?" Ryoki called, running over to Syaoran, who was waiting for him.
This boy was Li Ryoki, another of Syaoran's cousins. He looked almost identical to Syaoran, but he had slightly darker coloured hair, and his eyes were blue.
"Not too good, to be honest. You know the girl I came to see here? Well, she had an accident and has amnesia. She can't remember anything, and her stupid brother has stopped me from seeing her because he thinks that I caused the accident!" Syaoran explained "Anyway, how about you?" He forced a smile.
"I've been ok comparatively! So tell me all about this girl when we're on the way, huh?" Ryoki smiled and picked up his suitcase.
"Sure." Syaoran took the bag off him and lifted it with ease.

"Wow, that was good!" Sakura sighed, leaning back on her chair.
"I have to agree, Mr. Kinomoto, you are an excellent cook!" Tomoyo exclaimed.
"Thank you girls, why don't you go to the park to walk and chat? Sakura might pick up some memories, too!" Fujitaka smiled.
"Are you sure? Don't you want us to help clear up?" Tomoyo asked kindly
"No, It's ok. Go on!" Sakura's father laughed.

"So…you're in love with her and, this girl, she was in love with you? Wow, poor girl… OW!!" Ryoki got hit on the head by Syaoran's fist.
"Don't EVER say that, ok? It's bad enough not being able to see her." Syaoran sighed. "Hey, why don't I take you round? We could start at the park if you want…?" Syaoran said, not really asking.
"Why not? I think it's a good idea. How about town first, though? Want to see some talent!"
"No. The park, ok?"
"Ok"

Tomoyo and Sakura were walking through the park. Tomoyo was contemplating on whether to tell Sakura about her previous relationship with Syaoran. What if it had been just a childhood infatuation? Tomoyo decided that it would be best to see what happened, and to test whether their love was real.
Sakura asked her endless questions, mainly about Syaoran.
"Why did he look so sad? I feel like I know him very well, and I just want to help him feel better… Was it my fault? Did I make him sad?"
"Pretty much, yeah. You were childhood friends, and he came back from China yesterday. You were in the park together, but the details are a bit fuzzy because you don't remember, and Touya won't let him see you at all! He thinks that he caused the accident, which I think is a load of rubbish. Touya doesn't know what happened, and neither do I for one, but what I DO know is that Syaoran didn't cause that crash to happen. Touya has no idea what he's done."
"Hmmm…" Sakura was lost in a sea of thoughts. She was thinking about Syaoran and his sad eyes. From her hospital bed and her initial fuzzy thoughts, she hadn't noticed much about his appearance apart from his brown, messy hair. And while Sakura was thinking, Syaoran and Ryoki rounded the corner in front of them and they literally walked into one another, with Ryoki ending up on top of Sakura on the ground.
