CHAPTER 3: SYAORAN AND SAKURA ARE ENGAGED IN THE EYES OF THE MEDIA

Sakura was about to go home after an early shopping at the supermarket just like what Syaoran told her, when she saw a newspaper stand with all of Syaoran's face on it. Being curious, she went to the stand and read the headlines. Li Syaoran Engaged.

Sakura raised a brow and took the newspaper reading the contents.

Two nights ago, our sources told us that the actor Li Syaoran booked La Mer Restaurant for a private dinner with a woman who is yet unknown to us. The actor was the one who arranged and planned the whole set up in the restaurant which includes the effect of people leaving when the woman finally arrived, and putting the engagement ring (inset picture) on the cake for the woman to discover it on her own on the cake.

Sakura didn't finish reading the article when her phone started to ring again. Growling in frustration she placed her groceries on the floor and answered the very impatient Syaoran who's waiting for her at home to cook his breakfast.

BACK HOME:

Sakura's mopping the floor when Syaoran came down to the stairs and watched TV. Raising a brow she then stopped mopping and looked at Syaoran. "What are you looking at?" Syaoran said without even looking at Sakura.

Sakura shrugged. "You know, there's this news about you." She said. Syaoran's eyes moved to her. "It's about you being engaged." She said as she continued mopping. "Is it that girl from the previous scandal?" She asked. Syaoran didn't respond but she continued.

"Or is it that foreign actress?" She asked again. "OH! Or is it that model name Natsuki?" She said. Syaoran looked at her with an annoying face. Sakura gasped. "Oh! Is it that girl?" She exclaimed. "Hey, go back to your room. You're too annoying." He said.

Sakura smiled mischievously, "After I finish this. You got to finish what you started." She said. The living room fell silent for a while when Sakura realized something. "You know that picture of the ring looks like what I saw in the trash can. Right?" She looked at Syaoran with curiosity.

"That's strange." She said. Syaoran rolled his eyes and turned of the TV. He was too annoyed listening to Sakura's ramblings and went to the garden. Sakura's eyes followed Syaoran as he went outside the house. "Air head."

Dropping the mop she went to the coffee table where Syaoran's stuffs were. She arranged them when she gets to see a white envelope and opened it. Her eyes widen when she saw the invitation for that night's party. This must be what Syaoran meant when he told her that she's going with him.

This hit a light bulb on Sakura. If she was there in the party she can meet a lot of people so she can be hired as a back up dancer or singer, or even a choreographer. This will really pay there debts if she works like that.

Feeling so excited she ran out to the garden to find Syaoran sitting at the lover's seat swing reading a book. "So we're going to you're party later ne?" She asked excitedly. Syaoran looked at her emotionlessly and said, "Yeh, why?"

Sakura gasped in delightedness and said, "Oh my God, this can help me! If I can go there I can meet someone and can land me an opportunity to become a back up dancer or singer or anything can pay me good." She said in an excited tone.

Syaoran raised a brow. "Now when I think about it, you'll make a fool out of yourself out there and get me embarrassed." He said making Sakura's mouth in a perfect 'O'. "So you're not going there anymore." He said.

Sakura frowned hearing him say that. She's not going to give up on this. "B-but when we get there we'll split up." She said, as Syaoran continued reading without responding to her anymore. She bit he lower lip as anger rises up to her head.

"Bastard," She said. Syaoran snap his head to her ready to argue when Sakura continued. "I hope you eat and live well so that God can take you early." She said as she walked out. Still feeling anger boiling inside her, she walked back to Syaoran and kicked the swing making him fall out on it.

"Why you— I'll get you for that!" He said aloud as he rubbed her aching foot from falling.

SAKURA

Sakura was doing laundry with her hands, releasing her frustrations at Syaoran's clothes. Anger still overwhelmed her, she took off her slippers and did the laundry with her foot stomping it. (Have you seen how Asians usually do their laundry when they use their feet? That's a lazy way of doing laundry. Haha."

Thinking so hard on how she can get to the party, she then has an idea that if that was Syaoran's party, then he will not need the invitation anymore and so she'll be the one who'll use it. She smiled mischievously as she went out of the laundry room and into the living room where there is a bookshelf that she knew Syaoran will place the invitation.

Looking around for any sign of Syaoran, she realized that he must be already gone since there was no sign of him everywhere.

Focusing on searching the invitation she finally saw the envelope and happiness crossed her eyes. 'This will make you really pissed Syaoran.' She thought as she giggled taking the invitation with her.

AT TOMOYO'S MANSION

When Sakura finally saw the invitation she called Tomoyo for her to help her out on how to dress. Since Sakura was Tomoyo's favorite person she agreed almost immediately when she asked the favor.

It was before 6pm when Sakura arrive at Tomoyo's place. The maids guided her to Tomoyo's room since Tomoyo will be expecting her there. She stepped in the dim room when the maids closed the door behind her.

Sakura looked around the dim room and called out for Tomoyo. "Moyo, where are—" She was cut short when the bright lights of Tomoyo's room turned on and she saw racks and racks of cocktail dresses with matching shoes at the floor.

"Surprise Sakura?" Tomoyo said from behind her. Sakura turned around and saw a smiling Tomoyo to her. Sakura glared at Tomoyo playfully. "I only asked you for a small help Tomoyo, and I guess this is what you call 'small' help." She said, making her friend giggle.

"You should know that by now 'Kura." She said as she walked over to Sakura. "So," Tomoyo began with her one hand at her hip and the other at her chin. "Why do you need my help anyways?" She asked.

Sakura sighed and said. "I need you to help me because my boss, which is the super air head Li Syaoran, is having a party and he didn't let me go with him. It's a great opportunity for me Moyo to land another job." She said as Tomoyo helped her take off her clothes.

"I told you to work for me Sakura." Tomoyo said. Sakura smiled. "You know I don't like that Tomoyo. I want to work things out on my own way. Besides, dad says that it's not good to depend on others." Sakura answered softly.

Tomoyo was Sakura's second cousin. Ever since Sakura started to work hard Tomoyo keep on insisting that she'll let Sakura borrow money from her. But Sakura rejected the offer because she doesn't want to depend on others and she doesn't want to add another debt on their account.

After an hour of fixing Sakura, she went out wearing a stunning brown halter cocktail dress with dusky rose sweetheart silhouette that is jazzed up with the black halter overlay, black band around the empire waist, and the fun detailing around the flirty skirt. Tomoyo made her long hair wavy and made her wear light make up.

"Thank you so much Tomoyo." Sakura said as she hugged her friend tightly. Tomoyo smiled softly as she hugged her friend back. "Anything for you Sakura," she said as she led Sakura out of her door.

GARDEN OASIS

Sakura arrived at the venue at exactly 7pm. Her eyes widened seeing all the designs that is set on the big garden. She wondered around when she saw food at the long table. Feeling her stomach grumble, she went straight to the food and munched her way to the other.

On the other hand, Syaoran was busy talking to his manager when he saw and auburn haired girl wondering around the garden. Frowning, he excused himself from his manager and went to the eating Sakura that is by the table.

"How did you get here?" He murmured as he finally reached Sakura. "By bus," she answered looking briefly at Syaoran. Syaoran was in disbelief seeing how hard headed she was when he already told her not to come. "Where I go is my business and it's in my own freewill." She answered as she gets through to other food on the table.

"What?" Syaoran asked her, not sure on what he just heard. "Pretend like we don't know each other and we'll mind our own business." She said as she waved her hand to shoo Syaoran away.

Syaoran just stood at where she is with his hands on his hips and watched Sakura eat and dropped some food on her dress. "Augh," She whined softly. Dusting off the food, she looked back at the still-standing-on-the-spot Syaoran and held her head high stubbornly to tell him the message of the gesture to go away.

Syaoran made a funny facial expression as if he wants to argue back but he let it pass and went away from her.

Seeing the stain that the food caused on her dress, Sakura went to the comfort room when she bumped into someone. "I'm sorry," she said, without even looking back as to whom she just bumped into.

"Hello there," the man called. Sakura turned around to see who just said that and saw that Eriol was smiling at her. "Oh, h-hi,"

SOME PART IN THE GARDEN

"Even though I'm here, I still don't know who I can talk to about landing me a job." She said as she sat down on the stone seat while Eriol stood up with his drink on his hand. She sighed deeply.

Eriol smiled softly at her and said, "Why won't you work as a choreographer for me?" Sakura's eyes widened. "Really? Are you serious?" she said surprised at what she just heard from him. "Hai, you are a very good dancer and with your skills you can help out with my productions. Does that sound good?" He said.

"That'll be great!" Sakura exclaimed, clasping her hands together.

SYAORAN

He wondered around the garden, smiling and greeting everyone he sees as he looked for Sakura. "Now where did she go?" He asked his self when he suddenly stopped seeing Kaori walking at the other side of the garden by herself.

Kaori looked at his way when she noticed someone's looking at her. Syaoran looked and walked away when their eyes came in contact. She sighed as she too continued walking around the party looking for Eriol.

SAKURA

Eriol was laughing hard when Sakura just told him her experience when she performed at some event. "And then what happened to her when she finally realized that her nail was broken?" He asked between laughter.

Sakura stopped herself from laughing and said, "She said, 'give my nail back, I'll fix it right back on my fingers!'" Eriol burst out laughing along with Sakura.

They didn't notice that Kaori just arrived from where they were sitting.

"That stain will give you a hard time washing it." Eriol said as he examined the stain on Sakura's dress. Kaori looked away when she saw the way he acts. "Ah, I know. I'll deal with it later." Sakura said when her phone rang. She picked it up and answered. "Hello… Why?" She said annoyingly. She looked at Eriol for a moment and smile shyly. "Just a minute please," She said as she walked away.

Eriol just smiled as Sakura went away hearing her say something to the receiver like, "You're such a pain,"

Kaori walked towards Eriol when she saw that he is all alone. Eriol smiled seeing her approaching and said, "Ah, Kaori, when did you arrive?"

Kaori frowned and went straight to the point, "Eriol, are you testing me right now? Seeing me how much I can endure?" She asked with pure frustration and jealousy in her eyes. "Test? What is that all about?" Eriol asked confusingly.

Kaori felt uncomfortable trying to make out the words she wants to say. "I… I like you."

SAKURA AND SYAORAN

"I'm leaving right now, so you too. Let's go." Syaoran said as he played with his car keys on his fingers. Sakura frowned at him. "I still have something to do, so go home without me. I'll go home later." She said as she folded her arms in front of her chest .

Syaoran's face got confused and said, "Something to do?" Sakura smiled. "Eriol from the launching, he offered me a job on choreographing. It'll be part-time though, but still we're talking about it." She explained.

"What?" Syaoran asked feeling like he didn't understand what Sakura was saying. Sakura rolled her eyes. "When a conversation is so great why leave early?" She said. Syaoran's brow furrowed. "Then I'm really leaving without you." He said trying to threat Sakura. "Then go." Sakura said sarcastically as she turned her heels and went back to Eriol.

Growling, Syaoran went after Sakura to take her home.

ERIOL

He was taken aback when Kaori confessed to him. He calmed his self and stood up to face Kaori who's pale by the moment. "I'm sorry, but I think there's a misunderstanding." He began.

Kaori's face turned even paler when Eriol began. "But I never thought of you as anything but a sister." He continued. Kaori's eyes fell to the floor, feeling rejection dropped on her shoulders.

"Besides, you have Syaoran. You don't know how much he likes you right?" He said, trying to make sense to Kaori which only made her angry. "You look good together too." He continued.

Kaori took heavy breaths as she heard Eriol rejected her and insisted Syaoran on her. She was really hoping and fantasizing that someday she will be on his arms as she cares for him, cooks for him, and does everything for him. But it all went crashing down when he turned her down.

"Then, it's because of Syaoran huh? Is it because he likes me?" She said trying to take something from him.

Eriol sighed and shook his head, not knowing what he'll say to make sense to her.

Kaori tried to control her tears form spilling and only sniffled her tears back as he placed down her glass of champagne down the stone seat and walked away.

She felt so rejected that she only walks and walks when she didn't noticed that she bumped to Sakura as she saw Syaoran behind her.

Eriol feeling so guilty for not explaining things thoroughly to Kaori, he came running after her realizing tha she might do something stupid.

Kaori stopped in front of Syaoran and gazed in to his eyes. "Syaoran," she said softly. Syaoran only looked back at her without replying. "Do you like me?" She asked, surprising Syaoran.

"You love me? Be frank with me." She said firmly and demandingly. Syaoran's jaws tighten as he stopped himself from answering. "Do you like me?" she asked again when Eriol appeared beside Kaori. Anger was still boiling in her system as her pride overpowered her. She was trying to make Eriol regret was he just said to her by making Syaoran say that he loves her and hoping that this may lead to Eriol feeling jealous.

"Kaori, what do you think you're doing?" Eriol asked as he held her arms. Kaori took her arms away from Eriol and gazed at Syaoran's eyes demanding for an answer. "Tell me," she began as Sakura appeared next to Syaoran. "If you like me, you will confess it right here, right now!" She said, as she thought about the rejection of Eriol overwhelmed her soul.

They didn't notice that they were already attracting the people in the party even the media.

"I like you a lot," he began. Kaori smiled a little, waiting for the answer she needed. But went upside down when he continued; "Sakura." Syaoran grabbed Sakura by the arm and crashed his lips to hers.
