It was an eventful day. Sakura's body was in sore from the tip of her toes to the ends of her hair. Sakura opens the door to the house.
"Otou-san, I'm home!" She shouted from the doorway as she tries to close the door and turn on the lights.
No one answered.
Well, I guess father's not home yet. Better cook for him, then.
Sakura shrugged off her jacket and placed her things neatly on one chair in their living room. She changed her shoes for some comfy slippers before slipping to the kitchen.
It was thirty minutes later when the doorbell rang. Sakura immediately ran to meet her father.
"Welcome home, dad!" She said happily like a little child.
"Wow, very energetic, are we?" Fujitaka said giving Sakura's head a pat.
Sakura was about to nod when she noticed Touya trailing behind his father's back.
"Why is he here?" Sakura pointed a finger to Touya.
"He says he has something to ask." Fujitaka said before leaving them while he changes upstairs.
Touya took a seat on one of the chairs in the living room while Sakura proceeded to the adjoined kitchen.
"So tell ma kaiju. When are you getting married?" Touya asked.
"Hmn . . . I don't know. Maybe, I won't marry anymore." Sakura said as she slides her ingredient into the pan.
"Yeah, that's what I wanted Seishi to be." Touya said in a dead tone.
Sakura stiffened. Erm, Touya can't know that immediately, can he?
"Why so silent kaiju?" Touya asked proceeding to the kitchen.
Sakura turned around to face his brother. "Hehe . . . erm . . . the-then?"
"That's what I planned," he said as he popped a piece of sliced cucumber in his mouth. "When someone intervened."
Awkward silence flew between the two until Fujitaka came down. "Hey, Sakura your coo-"
"How dare you." Touya was pissed, very, very, very pissed.
Sakura could only fake a laugh. Shoot! He's mad.
She raised her arms in surrender. "Ya know Touya, I was just playing around." Sakura said as she moved around the table.
"Really?" Touya said trying to have a cat and mouse chase with his sister around their table.
"Guys, what's wrong?" Fujitaka asked totally confused.
"That kaiju set my daughter on an engagement with a new kid in school." Touya said his eyes gleaming with anger.
"It was just nothing Otou-san." Sakura said in defense.
"Nothing! My daughter was trying to fit it Kaho's wedding dress!" Touya snapped and Sakura knew she needed to run for her life. She ran for the living room and was about to grab hold of the doorknob when Touya beat her there.
"It was just a stupid joke. I was trying to scare Syaoran's son and the only thing he got his bones shaking was the engagement prank." Sakura said, embarrassed.
Silence fell upon them. Fujitaka thought it was the end of their fight but flames were already burning in Touya's eyes.
"Syaoran's son?" (twitch)
Sakura nodded.
"Li's son?" (twitch) (twitch)
Sakura nodded twice.
"Gaki's son?" (twitch) (twitch) (twitch)
Sakura nodded thrice.
"I'M GONNA KILL THAT BOY!" Touya screamed as he turned around and was about to leave the house when Sakura got hold of him from the waist.
"C'MON TOUYA, BE SENSIBLE, THEY'RE JUST KIDS!" Sakura was screaming her lungs out as she tries to stop her brother from breaking their door and from barging to another person's house.
"MY DAUGTHER'S WEARING STUPID SILKY WHITE GOWNS BECAUSE OF THAT GAKI!" Touya screamed.

The next day . . .
Sakura's head was very heavy. Maybe, it was because she and Touya had been wrestling about Seishi and Wolf. She was walking towards the faculty room and was nowhere near earth.
"Leave her alone!" Sakura heard a boy shout.
She move her head left and right but no one was there.
"Why so?" another kid muttered calmly.
I can hear a growl forming in the throat of one of the kids. I noticed they were in the next turn. I moved nearer but hid myself behind a trash can. My eyes went wide when I saw that it was Wolf and Seishi was behind her. The boy was protecting her niece.
Sakura remembered the times when Syaoran would always stand in front of her. Trying to protect her. He was always Sakura's guardian angel. Now, he's another person's guardian.
"Leave her alone." Wolf said a little bit slowly but threateningly.
There were three kids. The one in the middle snorted.
"Ooooh, I'm scared." The other mocked.
Seishi gripped Wolf's shoulder tighter and, maybe, Wolf felt it. He gaze Seishi's hand a light squeeze.
I better stop this. Touya would surely kill me.
Sakura stood up and shouted. "What's happening here?"
All the children turned to her direction.
"Oh, shoot! Sensei!" cried one of the three kids. After that, they all shoot out of the scene leaving me, Seishi and Wolf around.

Wolf was the first to finish the swim. He grabbed the edge of the pool and raised his head. There was Sakura smiling brightly at him. Wolf raised his goggles off and cocked an eyebrow.
"What do you want?" he asked without any pants in between.
"That was very amazing." Sakura said. "Who taught you to swim the fast?"
"Daddy Syaoran." Wolf muttered as he raised one of his hands up for Sakura to grab and drag him up.
Sakura can only nod and blew off her whistle. Everyone stared at her before she announced, "Gym class is finish."
When every one was out except for Sakura and Wolf, Seishi came in crying. She went past Wolf and hugged Sakura's left leg. Sakura jumped a bit, surprised.
She saw the little girl and stooped down to meet her in eye level.
"Seishi, what's wrong?"
Touya's gonna kill me for this.
"They (hiccup) la-laugh (hiccup) wi(hiccup)th my sto-story." Seishi said through sobs.
"What did you even write about?" Li asked harshly. I winced.
Seishi handed him a piece of paper. He was reading it for about two minutes. After reading the whole thing he blew air to his cheeks. However, it didn't work. He started rolling on the floor, holding his stomach.
He was laughing hardly and Seishi was now crying madly on me.
KAMI-SAMA, ONEGAI!
