Chapter 8: I'm Pregnant…
"That's good to hear. Hikari will be jumping around if she hears this. Well, come straight to my house. I'll do a welcoming party for you. No! You can't say no. I know you only went there for two days but I've already miss you. No buts, Sakura! I'll kidnap Hikari. There! You can't say no now," Tomoyo walked to a shelf and took out a file out while her phone was between her ear and her shoulder, "Okay, talk to you later. I've got thing to settle now. Love you."
She hung up and sat on a chair while looking at the file she just took out. While she was doing that, her door was opened by none other but her charming husband.
"What are you doing, honey pie?" Eriol sat beside her and circled her waist with his arms, "I'm working."
"I've told you to stop working. It's not good for the baby," Eriol frowned at her as Tomoyo sighed deeply before glaring at Eriol, "For God's sake, I'm only three weeks, Eriol. The doctor said no heavy work. Taking out a file out of a shelf and reading is not considered as heavy work, Eriol Hiragizawa." Eriol looked at her, dumbfounded by her outburst. He smiled and caressed her hair lovingly. Tomoyo suddenly put down the file and snuggled up to his chest and circled her arms around his waist, "Sorry," her lovely voice filled with guilt. Talking about mood swing.
"Nah, don't mention it. I'm in the wrong. You're right. You need to get yourself busy to get over the boredom. After all, I've taken all other work from you," Eriol sat down on the couch and put his arms around her shoulders.
"Oh, yeah! Sakura and Syaoran are getting back and I want to make a welcoming party for them," Tomoyo said as Eriol chuckled, "I've already know that."
"Oh, I forgot that you always have an eye on them," Tomoyo pouted while Eriol kissed her forehead, "You don't have to be jealous coz' I've both my eyes on you but only a glance on them."
"So, that's why Sakura and Syaoran always in trouble. You're mean, Eriol," Tomoyo slapped his arm playfully. Eriol laughed heartily, "Ops, there goes my ultimate secret but I know the real reason for this 'welcoming party'."
"And what is that, Mr. Know-It-All?" Tomoyo asked innocently, "You wanted to announce to them that you're pregnant, right?"
"You know me too well. I believe you when you said you have two eyes on me," Tomoyo smiled as Eriol looked at her incredulously, "What? You don't believe me?"
"Okay, I know. I've insulted the great 100 over years old man. Sorry," Tomoyo rolled her eyes as Eriol chuckled, "You're going to pay for teasing me, honey pie."
"Do you take cash? Coz' I don't think I can take another…" Tomoyo was cut off when Eriol tickled her. Tomoyo could not stop laughing but Eriol stopped immediately when he remembered that Tomoyo was pregnant. Tomoyo panted with her flushed cheeks and Eriol could not help but kissed her passionately.
"Is that the payment? Are we clear now?" Tomoyo asked innocently but Eriol smiled cunningly at her, "Oh no, you don't. It takes more than that." Tomoyo suddenly got up and stuck her tongue at Eriol and took a run, leaving Eriol chasing after her, "Tomoyo, don't run too fast. The baby."
"Don't worry. The baby can take this," Tomoyo said and dashed into the living room, "Goodness, you are freaking me out, Tomoyo. Okay, no more game."
"Aww, Eriol is such a cutie," Tomoyo said as she sat on the sofa, "You'll do the planning and I'll do the work." Eriol sat beside her as Tomoyo frowned at him, "What for?"
"The supposedly welcoming party," Eriol rolled his eyes as Tomoyo giggled, "Why can't I do the work and you do the planning instead? I love to do the work," Tomoyo pouted cutely whilst Eriol looked at her with gaped mouth, "You're pregnant. Are you even forgetting that? Is pregnancy giving you some kind of short term memory? Because the Tomoyo I knew is very good with memory."
"Okay, okay. I'll take that as a compliment more than an insult. Eriol, I like to be pregnant," Tomoyo looked at her still flat belly as she put a hand on it, "Why?" Eriol's voice was heard. Tomoyo turned her eyes to her beloved husband and smiled angelically, "Because you'll always take care of me better." Said that when you're in labor.
"Oh no. I don't think so. I don't hate you're getting pregnant. I just hate the mood swing and all the cravings," Eriol put his hands in the air as Tomoyo suddenly cried. Man, that's what we're talking about. Mood swing. Eriol hugged her and soothed her without words that might get the house flooded with tears.
"You hate me," Tomoyo suddenly said but Eriol kissed her forehead. That always soothed her, "No, I don't hate you. I love you so much. Now, stop crying and we can start planning your welcoming party. Sakura and my little descendant will be here tonight. We need to hurry, aren't we?" Tomoyo nodded as Eriol wiped her tears away. She smiled and pulled a notebook and a pen. First on the list, catering.
"Call Aimi," she ordered as Eriol dialed her number, "Yo, Aimi! Are you free today? Great! Tomoyo wants to give some trouble to you. No, not that kind of trouble. We need your specialty for Sakura and Syaoran's welcoming party. Thanks. Can you come over at 12? We'll talk later then. Bye," Eriol hung up and the list goes on and on.
Hana
"Junko, please cancel my dinner tonight with Izumi," Hana closed the door but Junko came in with her, "But Akimine-san, I don't have Sato-san's number. I've got only his company's number. You've never told me I should take note of your personal dinner with Sato-san."
Hana blinked her eyes as realization hit her on the head, "Oh gosh, sorry 'bout that. My mind is not with me just now. I'll tell him. It's lunch time already. You'd better hurry go get your lunch." She smiled as Junko smiled bitterly at her. Junko left the room and went back to her place when Raku came, "Hey, let's go. I'm starving." Junko took her purse and walked with Raku to the elevator, "Raku, do you ever put your personal dinner with your boyfriend in a business planner?"
"NO! Never! That is so taboo. It's as if having a love relationship is a business. That's so not cool. Why did you ask? Is there anyone who does that? I'm so going to laugh at their faces and tell them to get a life," Raku looked at her face in small mirror as Junko just looked at her, "Is that supposed to mean she doesn't love that person?"
"Probably. Junko, you too should get a life. Get a boyfriend and you know what I'm talking about," Raku eyed her from head to toe when Junko puffed her cheeks. As she was looking so cute, a guy came into the elevator, eyes straight on her. He smiled as she smiled back with embarrassment written all over her face. Raku mouthed at her 'hottie' when he turned his back on them. Junko frowned at her and all that she was thinking about was put behind her mind.
Hana, on the other hand, was calling Izumi but only reached his voicemail which was a relief for her. If she reached him directly, there will be lots of questions to answer to, "Hey, it's me, Hana. I just want to say I'm sorry I can't make it to the dinner tonight. Something came up and I can't say no to it. I'll make it up. How about dinner tomorrow? I'm really sorry. Bye." She hung up and put the phone on the table. She sighed deeply and recalled what Tomoyo just forced her to do.
Flashback
"Hey, Eriol. What's up?" Hana said when she answered the phone.
"Yo, Hana. We're having a welcoming party for Sakura and Syaoran. They're coming back to Japan tonight,' Eriol explained while Hana thought to herself, "So soon?"
"Wow, so soon? When's the party?" Hana asked as she multitasked, doing some reading on her projects.
"Tonight of course," Eriol answered as Hana stayed silent for a moment, "You're there, Hana-Chan?"
"Yeah, I'm here but sorry. I can't make it. I have a dinner tonight with Izumi," Hana explained when she heard Eriol spoke to Tomoyo, getting a scream from the other end, "No way! You have to make it. I want everyone to be there. You can have a dinner with that je… I mean tomorrow. You can have it with him tomorrow. Tonight is my night. So, pretty please. Please. Please. Please."
"Okay, okay. I got it. I'll be there. You're so going to get me dead," Hana sighed as Tomoyo laughed, "I'm not getting you dead. I'm giving you life."
"Hey, what's that supposed to mean?" Hana frowned, "You'll get it sooner or later, workaholic."
"I am not," Hana defended herself.
"Yes, you are," she could felt Tomoyo was sticking her tongue out.
End Flashback
"Earth on Hana! Something on your mind? Do you want to cancel our lunch and talk?" Chikane said in front of Hana who was startled to hear her loud voice.
"No, I won't cancel our lunch. I can't cancel everything today, right?" Hana took her handbag and pulled Chikane from her seat. They waited for the elevator to open when Chikane asked, "Did you just cancel what I think it is?"
"Yeah, I cancel the dinner with Izumi. I can't refuse Tomoyo. She's persistent," Hana explained while Chikane chuckled and shook her head, "He's going to be pissed off."
"I know. You don't have to tell me the obvious. Comfort me, not confront me," Hana gave her a puppy eyes but Chikane just laughed heartily, "Now you pissed me off, Chika-Chan."
"Aww, did I just laugh at you, Hana?" Chikane put her arms around her belly as Hana puffed her cheeks, "You sure did and still doing it."
"Well, I'm sure Tomoyo has a very strong reason to make you cancel that dinner Izumi has been waiting for since last week," Hana glared at Chikane who was making her felt worse than before, "You're the bone of contention." "Shut up, Chika-Chan. I'm feeling worse, the worst! So, please give my heart a break."
"It will be best for you to break up with him than give your heart a break every time you need to break his heart," Chikane did not laugh when she said this.
"Chikane, I can't. I really can't. He's important to me," Hana said as the door of the elevator opened. They walked out of the door and walked to Hana's car, "He may be important to you. But he's not someone special to you. Well, not anymore." Hana just kept silent to let their uncomfortable conversation faded itself. She was tired of talking the same old thing every time they start to talk about Izumi. They had their lunch without another word about Izumi. Chikane knew when to stop if it comes to Hana. When she keeps silent only means she doesn't want to talk on the subject anymore.
"You're coming tonight, right?" Hana asked as Chikane nodded while putting the straw into her mouth but took her mouth away, "What makes you think I'll get away from Tomoyo's determination when the CEO of Kikyo Corporation can't even say no to her?"
Hana chuckled and nodded her head in agreement, "You're right. I'll agree with that." "Look who's talking? But Tomoyo seems fishy to me. Who'll make a welcoming party when you only left the country for only two days? I'm sure she has something else behind all this party."
"Oh well, at least it won't harm you," Hana said as she waved at the waiter, "Bill please." The waiter excused himself and went to get the bill. Chikane rolled her eyes, "Yeah, I hope so." The waiter came back with the bill and they left after paying, "What's that supposed to mean?"
"You know what I mean all right. Stop asking me the obvious," Chikane said as Hana chuckled lightly. Chikane sure had her temper and Hana was not the one to play with it.
"Okay, I'm sorry. You sure don't want me to send you to the shop?" Hana asked as Chikane waved at the moving taxi, "Yeah, you don't have to make unnecessary trip for me and I'm sure you have a lot to do." Chikane got into the taxi and waved at her friend. Hana waved back and left with her car. She reached her office to find Izumi was waiting for her with his very annoyed expression and Hana knew exactly why he had that expression on his handsome face.
"What's the meaning of this?" Izumi asked with his phone in his hand. Hana sighed and apologized, "I'm sorry but something really came up and I can't refuse her."
"What do you mean you can't refuse her? Who is she?" Izumi harried her with questions as Hana gulped, seeing how angry he was. Telling him the truth will just worsen the situation but to lie is just going to make their relationship worst. It meant that she didn't trust him. What to do? The truth or lie to him?
"Well, Sawako needs me to meet her for the bridal dress and she's only free tonight," Hana was shocked that she could lie without even realizing it, "Goodness, I lie to him. I really did."
"Well, if that's the case, I can't be angry with you. I thought it has something to do with your new friends. Just be sure you can make it next Saturday. I'll pick you up at 7. Is that okay?" Izumi spoke with a smile on his face as guilt clouded her eyes. She couldn't even look at his eyes. She sat on her chair and nodded at him, "Yeah, it's okay." Izumi was about to give her a kiss but Hana quickly dodged it by making one of her file fell on the floor. She quickly bent herself to take the file, "I… I'll be going now." He gave a peck on her cheek as he knew Hana was not allowing him to kiss her intimately. She kept on doing that since after the coma. Well, they hadn't been intimate for almost eight years. Maybe that was making their relationship go stale. Something needed to be done and done fast. He was making plans and each of it has Hana in it. May God be with her and not him.
Hana sighed deeply and leaned on her chair after making sure Izumi had left her office. She was holding back her breath. She was doing some thinking. Well, major thinking. Maybe she should listen to Chikane and end it once and for all. But she was indebt to him. Five years and he still waited for her. What a girl to do? She can't just leave him and be gone. It was too cruel.
"If you've done with your la-la land, can you come to the meeting room now?" a voice was heard. Hana looked straight and saw her handsome prince, "Touya?" "Yeah, that's me alright."
"What are you doing here?" Hana asked with a frown on her face, "I have a meeting with you today and I volunteered to come pick you up, Hime-sama." Touya bowed in front of her as Hana got up and walked with without another word. She was not her usual self and Touya felt it, "Let's go then."
"Are you okay?" Touya asked as they walked to the meeting room, "Yeah, I'm great."
"You don't look all great to me," Touya said the obvious and Hana suddenly stopped and looked at him with her cold eyes. The usual Mei Xi's eyes, "Well, maybe if you stop staring at me, I'll be great again."
"Wow… wow… why the sudden coldness?" Touya looked at her up and down as Hana took a deep breath and tried to calm herself, "I'm sorry for the sudden outburst. I just did something awful to Izumi."
"What? You FINALLY dumped him?" Touya smirked but Hana stopped again and this time with a really disbelief look on her face, "That's not funny, Touya. I love him and I lied to him. Do you think that's funny too?"
Touya turned his face to Hana and looked her straight in the eyes, "Are you really in love with him?" "Yes." Hana said without a pause to show her determination. Her fake determination, "What did you lie about?"
"I've told him I have a meeting with Sawako when the truth, I'm going to Tomoyo's party after canceling the dinner I should be having with him." "That's it?" Hana nodded as Touya chuckled but deep down, who knows what he felt, "He'll understand. So don't worry too much."
They finally reached the meeting room and had their meeting but Touya left immediately after that. He could not bear to see her face and be reminded that she said she loves Izumi. He could not take it when the face of his love said straight to his face that she love another man.
Sakura
"Are you done yet?" Sakura looked at Syaoran who was wearing his shirt quickly, "Yeah, I'm done. Let's go." He took their bags and checked out from the hotel. They left with a cab and went straight to the airport where everyone was waiting for them, "What took you so long?" Alex asked with his knowing look, "Wipe that perverted look on your face before I punch you to death."
"Wow, I like them feisty," Alex said as Syaoran glared at him. Alex chuckled as Naomi pinched his arm, "Ouch… what's that for?" "Stop that or you'll get another." "Okay, okay. Man, women are so sensitive."
"Oh, yeah. Do you have a home in Japan, Alex?" Sakura asked, ignoring the pinching argument, "Yeah, we have one. Why do you ask?"
"You'll have to come over to my friend's house before you can go home. She's having a welcoming party for us," Sakura explained as Alex and Naomi looked at each other with a frown on their faces, "No need for the puzzled look. She's weird but she's nice. So, just bear with her." Syaoran said as Alex chuckled and grabbed Naomi into his arm, "Okay, we'll be there. I refuse to miss the chance to meet this weird friend of yours."
"Syaoran, Tomoyo is not weird. She's my cousin and her husband is your cousin. Be nice and stop giving names to them. You won't know what they'll do to you," Sakura smiled as Syaoran shuddered when he was reminded of what Eriol had done to him the last time he was calling him names.
They check-in and then they went into the airplane, finally leaving France. Vince and Alex had made their report to the France government and were accepted when they discussed about the mirrors which will be given to the Li clan. Well, when Syaoran got involved, everything will be done according to his way. He was taught to be the best manipulator in the world but there were five people he could not manipulate – Yelan, Eriol, Sakura, Mei Xi and last but not least, Touya!
Sakura slept in for the whole flight while Syaoran looked at the third mirror which was with him while the other two were with Vince and Alex each. The third one was called The Topaz with the usual Clow decoration but also with the unusual flower decoration which really looked like peach blossom. Syaoran was examining it when a stewardess came to ask if he needed anything. He was startled but thank goodness, the mirror did not fall and break. He demanded to the stewardess to bring a blanket for Sakura who was sleeping. Well, you can't possibly think Syaoran will ask politely to the stewardess, right? He demanded for everything and might ask politely when Sakura glared at him. He would do anything to please his wife. Sakura is the first and the last person he wants to please.
They reached the airport at exactly 8.15 p.m. Fujitaka and Touya were there to pick them up and went straight to Tomoyo's house where the supposedly welcoming party would be held. Touya kept on glaring Syaoran who was putting his arm around Sakura's shoulder while her head leaned on Syaoran's shoulder for support. She was tired alright, "What? She's my wife."
"She deserves a better man," Touya said while Syaoran smirked at him, "Well, don't worry too much or your head will go bald. She got the best man in the world."
"You're a bit cocky for my liking," Fujitaka looked at the bickering men or should he says, boys, "Now, both of you. Stop it or Sakura will wake up and you'll get it from her." They kept silent but their eyes kept on glaring at each other. Fujitaka just sighed at them while Alex whispered with a chuckle, "Wow, they are… fascinating and Syaoran is armed to the teeth. I don't think there's anyone who deserves to be Sakura's husband more than Syaoran. No one can keep up a good fight with her brother except him."
"I heard that!" Touya yelled as Syaoran smirked. He was proud that Alex said that about him but Touya, on the other hand, was extremely angered. Alex and Vince laughed while Naomi and Sheifa looked at each other and shook their heads at their husbands' little tease. They were joshing with Touya. Well, Alex was never a person who likes fussy people. No offence, but he thought Touya as a fussy person. That's why Syaoran was his target back when they were in France. He found a target easily alright. After Syaoran, next in line – Touya.
"Where is Hikari?" Sakura yawned and looked at her brother, "Tomoyo kidnapped her but don't worry, she'll be fine. They haven't call for the ransom. So, she won't be killed." Alex chuckled, "Wow, I thought you're an uptight guy, Touya. But you prove me wrong."
"I am NOT uptight and who gives you the carte blanche to call me by my given name?" Touya looked at Alex who suddenly burst into laughter, "Wow, wow. I can't call you Kinomoto-san coz I called your father that and we're almost the same age. What else can I call you? Okay, if you still refuse me to call you by your given name, I'll… call you… hmm… ah! Kinomoto Onii-sama. How's about that?" "You can call me Touya. Don't start giving me that ridiculous nickname." Sakura smiled and tried to stifle her laugh by hiding her face onto Syaoran's chest. No one ever get the better of Touya except Syaoran and Mei Xi. But Alex would be in the list now.
Syaoran smiled while circling his arms around Sakura's waist, "Hey, no hanky-panky in front of me." "Yes, Kinomoto Onii-sama." Syaoran smirked again and hugged Sakura tighter which really made his blood boil, "My goodness, stop it. I'm having a really bad headache with you guys. Am I right, Fujitaka-san?" Sheifa massaged her forehead with her hand. Fujitaka nodded but still smiled at them. Naomi too was chuckling when they reached Tomoyo's house, "Wow! Such a big house. Is being weird made you rich, Syaoran?" Alex looked at the house in disbelief while Syaoran glared at him, "NO." Alex laughed as he got out from the car and took Naomi's hand when she was getting out of the car, "Aww, I've never thought you have that romantic side of yours." Sheifa said but Alex just stuck out his tongue at her, "Every guy has his romantic side but in his own way. Only certain women can make guy show it and appreciate that. And I'm telling you, you're not that CERTAIN woman for me." Sheifa was furious but Vince put his arms around her waist from behind to stop her from attacking Alex, "Let him be, honey." Sheifa loosened up a bit when Vince nuzzled her hair, "Hey, no hanky-panky in front of me," Alex mimicked Touya with his expression. Touya glared at him but he just put his hands up in the air, "No offence." "You're childish." "It's okay. Childish won't bite you." Touya left and went straight into the house while Fujitaka took them to the garden behind the house where everyone else was waiting for them.
"Welcome home," Tomoyo said while jumping around with Eriol looking very worried behind her. He stood behind her to help her if she ever feels like falling to the ground, "I missed you guys." "Yeah, me too." Syaoran said sarcastically as Sakura glared at her, "Do you hate me, Syaoran?" Tomoyo's eyes were brimmed with tears, "Uh… n...no. I don't hate you." Eriol glared at him with I'll-kill-you-if-you-do-that-again look. Syaoran stayed nice to Tomoyo. Usually Tomoyo is very good in taking sarcasm. Was she been abducted by the alien and changed her personality? No way, aliens will never abduct her or they'll get it from her. With her freaky camcorder and clothes, the aliens would be her models then. Wow, that was not a good thought. That was a nightmare.
"What are you doing, Syaoran?" Sakura asked when Syaoran just kept silent, "Lost in my thought." He smiled and went to hug his daughter when she came running to him, "I miss you, Hikari."
"I miss you too, Otou-san," Hikari hugged her father around his neck and gave him a peck on his cheek. She went to her mother and tugged at the hem of Sakura's shirt. Sakura crouched down and Hikari gave her a peck on the cheek and whispered, "I miss you, Okaa-san."
"I miss you too," Sakura kissed her on the forehead and smiled to the little girl with her unusual emerald eyes.
"Well, I don't think I miss you that much, Sakura, Syaoran. You'd left only for two days," Aimi's voice was heard as she walked out from the kitchen with a tray in her hands. Followed her from behind, Yukito came out with another tray in his hands, "That's because you don't have a heart." Tomoyo pouted at her as Aimi smirked, "Oh yeah? But you sound fishy, Tomoyo." "I AM NOT!"
"Then why the sudden anger? You wouldn't be angry if I'm not telling the truth, right?" Aimi said with a giggle. Tomoyo puffed her cheeks and folded her arms. Hana came out to meet the little fracas.
"I want you all to meet Alex and Naomi," Sakura said with a smile on her face while trying to stop the bickering women. Sakura introduced Alex and Naomi to all of her friends and family. They were in delight to meet Alex and Naomi though someone seemed to resent Alex being introduced to the family.
"You must be Akimine Hana, right? I've seen you in the magazine last week," Alex smiled and shook hands with Hana who smiled back at him. Touya glared at him when Alex put his arm around Hana's shoulders, "I've never thought the Kinomoto has many connections with the 2nd famous woman on Earth." Alex patted her back as Hana blushed. Touya clenched his fist while Syaoran smirked at Touya. He tried to deal with his anger but it was showed very clear from Syaoran's view. Sakura was talking to them while Touya left the garden and went into the kitchen where Aimi appeared suddenly, "What are you doing here? Why aren't you getting to know Alex and Naomi? Don't tell me you're jealous or something?"
"Nah, I'm taking some fresh air," Touya took a glass of water. Aimi frowned at him while giving orders to Tomoyo's maid, "Taking fresh air in the kitchen? Well, fried chicken, pasta, coffee smell like fresh air then. Never cross my mind to think that kind of smells as fresh air. Get out from here and stop being like a spoilt brat. No one is talking to Hana now. Go and talk to her. She's been looking for you."
"She's been looking for me?" Touya put down the glass while Aimi patted his arm, "She doesn't say it out loud but her eyes kept looking out for someone. So, get out now before Alex takes her away." His face turned bright while Aimi shook her head. He went back to the garden and saw that Hana was looking at him. He went to Hana and sat beside her. They talked a bit before Chikane came and sat with them.
"So, that's why he looked so mad when I put my arm on her shoulders. Man, that guy has problem with his jealousy management," Alex said while putting some pasta into his mouth. Sakura shook her head, "Tell me that when you met her boyfriend."
"She'd got a boyfriend? Wow, I thought Touya is her man. Guess I'm wrong," Alex looked at the couple when Syaoran came into the conversation, "I prefer to have Sato's guts for garters."
"Xiao Lang," Sakura glared at him. Syaoran chuckled and grabbed her by the waist as she plopped on his lap. She blushed when Alex laughed; looking at Sakura's startled face, "KAWAII!!" Tomoyo came with her camcorder. Alex was startled to hear Tomoyo's scream, "Here come the weirdness of the family, right?" Alex looked at Sheifa who nodded with a chuckle followed by.
"Tomoyo, stop jumping around," came the worried voice of Eriol while Tomoyo looked at him and pouted cutely, "Eriol is no fun." Eriol sighed and shook his head. He smiled and hugged his wife lovingly, "Let's tell them and you can make everyone understand why I'm this anxious with you jumping around like a child." Tomoyo giggled and looked at the guests, "Attention please. I have an announcement to make. I know everyone thinks it's weird that I made this party. Yeah, Aimi's right. It's fishy. Well, everyone knows Aimi's a chef, so she must know how the fish smells like," Aimi glared at Tomoyo while the other guests were having a laugh, "I just want everyone to know that I'm pregnant. Yes, Eriol's and my first baby. Isn't that exciting?" Tomoyo smiled while no one looked surprise except Alex and Naomi.
"Why aren't you look surprise?" Tomoyo asked while they all burst into laughter, "Well, Eriol was the dead give-away. He kept on looking out for you as if you going to fall or something. It's usual for a first father to be just like Eriol." Aimi explained while Sakura added, "So, I was right all along."
"You all are no fun," Tomoyo pouted and folded her arms, "But anyway, congrats. I'm happy for you." Sakura hugged her as Tomoyo hugged her back with a happy smile on her face. The women came to Tomoyo and gave her little tips about pregnancy while the men talked to themselves, "Congrats, Eriol. I thought you are infertile. You know, having lived for almost 100 years," Syaoran whispered while Eriol glared at him, "That's not funny, my little descendent." The others said their congratulation to them. Fujitaka came to Eriol, "Congratulation, Eriol. Just be patient and bear with her for another eight months. Sonomi was very bad with pregnancy. Her mood swing was the worst. So, Tomoyo might have her mother's gene. So, be careful." Eriol gulped his saliva as Fujitaka patted his back. He needed to try to figure his life for another eight months and Fujitaka wasn't helping like he usually did.
