Chapter 11: A Reunion It Is…

"Well, I'd better get going," Mei Xi sighed and got up from the couch.

Sakura got up with her, "Why don't you stay here?"

"Sorry, but Hana's aunt and uncle will be worried sick if I'm not home. I'm still borrowing their niece's body. So, I should play the innocent niece until she gets back into her body." Mei Xi smiled.

Sakura nodded in understanding, "Okay, but come back soon, Mei Xi Nee-Chan." She blushed a bit as it had been so many years she didn't call Mei Xi with those words.

Mei Xi nodded and smiled a bit, "Send my regards to Sheifa and Vince. I'll see them tomorrow." Fujitaka and Syaoran had gone into the study long before. Though, Mei Xi was with them, they still need her to return to her own body. It was long before they could reach the happy ending.

Touya followed them to the entrance and gave her a kiss on the forehead, "I'll see you soon, Mei Xi."

"Yeah, see you, Touya." Mei Xi smiled and walked towards her car.

Sakura waved at her as she left the house in her car. She then turned her attention to Touya who smiled warmly, "Just a kiss on the forehead? Onii-Chan, you're kidding me, right?" Sakura said incredulously.

"That's why you're a kaijau. You don't understand what kind of relationship I have with her." And with that, he left the door and went into the house with Sakura yelling her usual 'I'm not a kaijau'.

"Sakura, you better start making dinner. It's almost 5. Your guests would be hungry by the time they reach home. So, chop chop," Touya said and left Sakura who had her mouth gaped at her annoying brother. Touya was smiling happily when Syaoran came out of the study but the smile was completely gone when he saw Syaoran looking at him. They stared at each other but Syaoran retreated immediately and went to the kitchen. He was having goose bumps all over his body after catching the first glimpse of Touya smiling so happily.

"What are you doing?" Syaoran asked when he entered the kitchen to meet with a very busy Sakura who had an annoyed face.

"I'm trying to make a dinner before everyone gets back," Sakura said without looking at her husband. Syaoran smiled and took an apron and wore it as he walked until he reached Sakura.

"So, what can I help you with? I know we have to make dinner for a very big number of people but no worry. Chef Sakura has Assistant Syaoran with her. So, throw that annoyed look you have all day and give me the beautiful smile that I adore so much," Syaoran folded his left arm around her shoulders and gave a chaste kiss on her forehead. Sakura sighed and gave him a smile.

"Thanks, Syaoran. There are too many events in a single day. They are getting into me," Sakura explained while chopping some vegetables.

"I know. That's why I'm here. I hate to make you go all wrinkly just like that cabbage you're chopping," Syaoran smiled as he looked at the cabbage. Sakura stopped chopping and looked at Syaoran incredulously.

"Are you trying to say you won't love me anymore if I get all wrinkly?" Sakura asked but Syaoran quickly put his hands in the air while shaking his head.

"I don't mean I won't love you if you have wrinkles all over. I'm talking about premature wrinkling. Surely we'll have wrinkles as we get old. By then, I too will have wrinkles all over. That is considered beautiful wrinkles. Premature wrinkles…" Syaoran wanted to explain but Sakura cut him off.

"Okay, okay. I get your point. You want me to wrinkle with you. And by the way, I know no one will want you when you are old and wrinkly. So, you'll be stuck with me," Sakura said while Syaoran gave him an incredulous look. She laughed and gave Syaoran onions and garlic and asked him to slice them.

She put a frying pan on the stove and put some oil in it. Syaoran sliced the onion and gave the sliced onions and garlic to her while talking to Sakura, "I love being stuck with you."

"Thanks. It would be my honor to be stuck with you forever," Sakura smiled without looking at him as she put the onions and garlic into the hot oil.

"I'm pleased to hear that," Syaoran embraced her from behind and gave her a kiss on the cheek. He could feel Sakura's smile forming which made him smiling too.

"Otou-san, Okaa-san, bear hug!!" Hikari screamed and hugged her parents' legs when she saw Syaoran and Sakura hugging each other. Syaoran lifted Hikari and she hugged Sakura who was still holding a ladle in her hand.

"Aunt Aimi and Ryuki are here too. Yuu-Chan is going to be my friend. She said I'm worthy to be her friend. Isn't that great? But Ryuki doesn't want me to be with Yuu-Chan. He's a meanie," Hikari said while Syaoran frowned at her but he didn't say anything when Sakura shook her head at him.

"She doesn't worth you," Ryuki glared at Hikari who hid her face in Syaoran's chest.

"Go away!! Yuu-Chan told me to stay away from you! I have to be at least a meter away from you or Yuu-Chan won't talk to me again," Hikari said while clutching her father's shirt.

"Stupid girl," Ryuki said and left the kitchen. Syaoran patted her head but somehow Yuu-Chan did not seem like a good kid in his eyes.

"Are you sure they are six years old?" Syaoran asked Sakura who just gave him a smile.

She nodded her head, "Yup, they are six years old but they are getting smarter and more mature each generation. So, that's why you get six years old talking about puppy love."

"Since when did you take science seriously?" Syaoran frowned playfully at her.

Sakura just chuckled, "Since I had Hikari when I'm pregnant. That's also science."

"Oh, you mean about how babies are made and such?" Syaoran smirked inwardly.

"Oh, no you don't. Don't even get there, Syaoran," Sakura said with a glare.

"How babies are made, Otou-san?" Hikari asked with her innocent eyes staring at him. How could he forget he had his daughter in his arms? Hikari was looking at him with determination in her eyes. Her big, questioning eyes were choking him.

"You started it, you will have to finish it," Sakura smiled cunningly when Syaoran gave her a pleading look.

"I'll tell you when the time is right," Syaoran said without looking at Hikari. She whined as she held his shirt in her small hands and shook her father.

"Tell me," she whined but Syaoran coughed a bit, still not looking at his baby girl.

"Hikari, look! Ryuki taking away your Honeybee," Syaoran said anxiously while Hikari looked at the door with wide eyes. Ryuki was holding a plush toy that looked like a big, cute bee. Syaoran put her down when she struggled to get down.

"Give back my Honeybee," she put her hand in front of her but Ryuki just smirked at her.

"No way. And try keeping that promise you made with Yuu. I'm taking your plush toy with me," Ryuki said and walked away.

"No!! Give Honeybee back to me. Okaa-san will be mad at us if you dirty her again," Hikari yelled, following him but was making sure to stay away from him in a meter away. Hikari was always whining about having no friends when her parents were away on business trips and such. So, Sakura bought her a plush toy that Hikari named Honeybee to be her first friend. Since then, she was always with Honeybee. They talked to each other, played together, dirtied together and got scolded by Sakura together.

Syaoran was relieved that he could get away from that dreadful question that he could not answer directly to Hikari. Sakura smiled at him when she heard him sigh deeply, "You have to thank Ryuki for saving you."

"I don't need to be saved by a kid," Syaoran sat on the chair and looked at Sakura who was still cooking.

"Then what would you say to her if Ryuki didn't do that?" Sakura asked, smiling inwardly without looking at Syaoran.

"I'll just tell her that if you kiss a man, you're going to get pregnant," Syaoran smirked and chuckled lightly.

"That is so lame. You just don't want Hikari kissing anyone," Sakura said, turning her head to look at Syaoran incredulously.

"Good to know that you know me so well," Syaoran said with a proud face.

"Then, you have to bear not having Hikari kissing you again. You're a man and Hikari considers a kiss as a peck on the cheek. Suits you," Sakura said while putting the dish into a plate.

"How are we even talking about that? And why am I explaining what I'm going to say to my baby girl?" Syaoran frowned but Sakura just lightly chuckled and left the matter there.

She was curious, really. But Syaoran, being an overprotective father would likely to say that. Just to make their daughter stays away from the boys.

Aimi came into the kitchen and sat on the chair while looking at the couple, "What are you doing?"

"Cooking," Sakura said while Aimi rolled her eyes.

"I know you are cooking but Syaoran, what are you doing? Pestering Sakura?" she asked bluntly. Syaoran gave her a glare while Sakura laughed at him.

"No, I'm helping her," Syaoran answered but Aimi looked at him with disbelief.

"I'm sure I don't see your hands or your feet moving. How are you helping her without moving either your hands or feet? I'm rather puzzled," Aimi smirked at him, immune to his glare.

"I was helping her before you came in," Syaoran defended himself.

"Is he telling the truth, Sakura?" Aimi looked at Sakura's back as she was facing the stove.

"Yeah, he was helping me. He cut the onions for me," Sakura answered.

"Oww… that's so sweet. I wish Yukito wants to help me in the kitchen," Aimi pouted. Syaoran smirked at her and chuckled lightly.

"He does help you in the kitchen. He always cleans the dishes before dinner," Syaoran said as he got up and went back behind the counter.

"Are you insulting my husband? At least, I never have leftovers to worry about and my husband stays fit even if he loves eating," Aimi stuck her tongue at him.

Syaoran did not pay attention to Aimi and looked at Sakura who was making soup after cooking the vegetables. She gave him the ladle and asked him to stir the soup while she talked to Aimi. He wanted to protest but he realized that she wanted to talk to Aimi about Mei Xi. He stirred the soup while Sakura washed her hands. She then sat in front of Aimi who was frowning at her. The look that Sakura was giving her was starting to get nerve-wracking.

"Aimi, I need to tell something important. I hope you can take it easily but I'm not sure you can do that. I don't know if she wants me to tell you or not, but I know you'll get mad if I don't tell sooner," Sakura said and sighed which was really getting to Aimi's nerves.

"For God's sake, just tell me. You're making me nervous right now," Aimi said as she looked at Sakura intently.

"Mei Xi Nee-Chan has awakened," Sakura said while Aimi just stayed silent. Her mind was trying to interpret what Sakura just tell her.

"Come again," Aimi said after a long pause.

"Mei Xi Nee-Chan has awakened and she's currently living inside Hana's body," Sakura said with details and again, Aimi stayed silent. Her mind was confused but trying very hard to interpret everything that Sakura just said.

"Have you tell Mei Xin about it?" Aimi asked, suddenly remembered that Mei Xi had a twin that needed to be told that her sister is still alive and breathing.

"No, we just got to know about it just now. Mei Xi came with Touya and told us about it," Sakura answered while Aimi nodded her head slowly.

"Where is she now?" Aimi asked another question but her usual humor was not there.

"She's at Hana's house. She still borrowing Hana's body, so she needs to stay there," Sakura answered while Syaoran listened to them with his hand stirring the soup.

"Can you bring Mei Xin here tomorrow? Mei Xi will be here tomorrow. She wants to tell everyone about it," Sakura said again but it took awhile before Aimi nodded her head.

"I'd better get back. Yukito will be home and I need to prepare his dinner," Aimi said with a bitter smile on her face.

"Why don't you have dinner…" Sakura was cut off.

"No, thanks. I'll go home to digest all this new info you just told me. I need some time to think things over," Aimi explained and walked out of the house with Ryuki following her without Honeybee. He returned the plush toy when Hikari stood beside him but he had to promise that he won't tell Yuu that she will play with him.

"Did you think she takes it okay?" Sakura asked Syaoran. She took over while Syaoran leaned against the counter.

"No, but she will… eventually. She still don't know the whole situation but tomorrow will be a better day for them," Syaoran said, trying to calm Sakura's racing heart. He knew just by looking at her face.

"Since when did you become like Eriol?" Sakura glanced at him with the corner of her eyes.

Syaoran cringed at the name that was suddenly socialized with him. He looked at Sakura incredulously while Sakura gave him a smile.

"How am I like him?" Syaoran asked. Sakura chuckled lightly without looking at him.

"You're talking like him," Sakura said again but Syaoran lifted his right brow at her.

"And how is that?" Syaoran harried her again but Sakura stayed silent as she put some sliced mushrooms into the pot.

"You're talking future-like," Sakura said shortly and went to the fridge to take out something.

Syaoran sighed deeply and said, "Okay, it's hard to admit but you're right. Eriol always talks like he knows the future."

"He doesn't talk like he knows the future, he really knows about it but finds that not telling us is very amusing to him," Sakura said and Syaoran nodded in agreement.

"We're home," Alex's voice was heard from the front door.

"What makes you think this is your house that you can said 'We're home' so casually?" Touya's voice was heard.

"Oww… The usual Touya is back. I miss you so much," Alex chuckled and was trying to hug him but stopped when Touya talked, "If you dare to touch me, I'll kill you."

"Okay, okay. I won't hug you but you sure hug Kaho so tight," Alex said, getting on his nerves.

"It's not my doing and you knew it," Touya said with anger sipping into his voice. The voices kept being heard in the house when Sheifa, Vince ad Naomi came into kitchen, ignoring the petty fight.

"I don't know where that energy came from but I really should make Alex do works with that kind of energy he could use to quarrel with Touya. I'm so tired that I don't care if he gets killed by Touya," Naomi said and sat on the chair with Sheifa and Vince sitting in front of her.

"Did you find anything?" Syaoran asked Vince. Vince looked at him and sighed deeply with his hands ruffling his own hair.

"We might find something but we're still not sure and I don't want to give anyone false hope. So, for now, no, we don't find anything yet," Vince smiled at him while Syaoran frowned at him.

"Is that something to be happy about?" Syaoran hated it when people keep things from him and he usually shows people how much he hated it by angering the said person but Vince just smiled at him. Vince was never the one that care if anyone tries to provoke him. He just stay calm and easy like the breeze of evening ocean.

"Syaoran, stop trying to provoke him. You knew you'll never get what you want even if you get him mad," Sheifa said tiredly.

"Why are you all seem so tired?" Sakura asked, trying to stop the childish play between Syaoran and Vince.

"You have got to see what Vince makes us do. He's a tyrant. And don't forget the whip if you start imagining what he did to us," Alex's voice was heard as he sat beside his wife, "My poor wife." He stroked her hair gently and glared at Vince.

"Hey, Naomi was the one who volunteered to go in that cave. You have no right to put the blame on Vince," Sheifa said while Naomi nodded her head.

"Where's the usual gentleman's behaviour that you always execute?" Alex still glared at him.

"I'm still a gentleman. It's 'ladies first' for us gentlemen," Vince said jokingly.

"Even if in a dangerous situation?" Alex asked while Naomi frowned at him.

"I volunteered, remember? And why are you blaming Vince? It was supposed to be you who save me," Naomi said which made Alex stayed silent.

"Why on earth are you guys talking about? I don't understand a word that came out of your mouths," Sakura asked which made everyone turned their eyes to her.

"We found a cave after we followed Touya. I mean the possessed Touya. And he went into a cave. Since it was too dark and we didn't bring any equipment for the situation, Naomi volunteered to go into the cave since she was quite familiar with the cave. But when Touya came out, Naomi was still in there. So, Alex panicked and made a dash for her. So, we had to make a search for them. Naomi was out a few minutes later but Alex was lost in that cave. Naomi was the one who rescued him," Sheifa explained which really made Alex blushed deeply. Naomi hid her face and tried to stifle her laughter.

"That is so brave of you, Alex. Even if it's a funny story, I'm proud of your bravery to try to save your wife," Touya smirked at him.

"It's your fault too, you know," Alex said, glaring at him.

"Now, it's my fault. Then, who? That gaki?" Touya asked.

"Hey, don't get me involve in this," Syaoran glared at Touya.

"I'm only emphasizing. That's why you're a brat," Touya glared at him back.

"Oh, no, you don't. Stop quarreling like little kids," Sakura said angrily. She was not going to let the house getting into the worst situation if they did get into a fight.

"Okaa-san, Uncle Touya and Uncle Alex are being noisy again. I can't concentrate on my homework," Hikari said to Sakura who was looking at her daughter who had a drawing book with her. She needed to finish her alphabet homework but her uncles were being too noisy for her to finish it in peace. Alex and Touya looked at Hikari who had a cute angry face at them. Sheifa and Naomi were smiling at her while Vince got up and squatted in front of her.

"Since your Uncle Touya and Uncle Alex are being naughty, let's get out and finish your homework. Sakura Okaa-san will scold both of them for you. Let's go," Vince said while Hikari nodded and took Vince's hand and went out.

"He was the cause of the problem, but he left like he got nothing to do with it," Alex grumbled but stopped when Sheifa and Naomi glared at him.

"Stop being like a baby. A baby is more tolerable than you two. I rather have a baby than you," Naomi looked at Alex who suddenly smiled at her. Okay, it was suddenly occurred in her head that she said the wrong thing. She never talked about baby with him though she knew how happy Alex would be to have a baby.

"No, no! I didn't mean that," Naomi said and ran out of the house with Alex following her, pleading to her.

"Talk," Sheifa said, looking at her brother.

"What?" Syaoran looked at his sister who suddenly commanded him to talk.

"I know you have something you need to tell me. So, tell me before I get to know about from anyone else," Sheifa looked at her brother with determined eyes. He knew he could never keep a secret from his sister. Sheifa always knows if he has something that he'd been keeping from her. And he could never win her.

"Mei Xi has awakened and currently living in Hana's body," Syaoran said directly while Sheifa nodded her head with a calm face.

"You're not shocked?" Sakura asked.

Sheifa smiled, "I knew about it. Eriol told me that Mei Xi's soul is still here on earth but he never tells me it's in Hana," Sheifa said before Syaoran could get mad at her.

"Have you told Mei Xin?" Sheifa asked but Sakura and Syaoran just shook their heads.

"And I'm sure you going to tell her tomorrow, right?" Sheifa asked again. They nodded their heads in agreement.

"Good. I won't miss their reunion," Sheifa said and got up, leaving the kitchen and very dumbfounded Syaoran and Sakura.

"Did Eriol tell everyone except us?" Sakura asked Syaoran but he just shook his head.

"No, he forgot to tell Mei Xin and Aimi. You did see Aimi's face just now? And Mei Xin is still clueless about it," Syaoran explained.

"We need to prepare a reunion party for them," Sakura said with a smile.

"Yup, a reunion it is," Syaoran sighed and tried to imagine what Mei Xin and Mei Xi would be like.

Author's Note: Sorry, it was a bit short… But I'll end it there… Next chapter is still on my mind… It still doesn't come out from my head and still not running wild on the paper… Hehehe…
