My Love, My Life - 19
*Shaoran's House*
Author's POV
Wei opens the bedroom door. He switches on the lights and find the girl curls up in the corner near the wardrobe, crying. He smiles and call Lupachiotto to come back to him. She's been rescued as well as arrested at the same time. That's when Mrs. Li is walking towards the girl. She looks straight in to the girl's eyes.
It's haunting her. The eyes of Mrs. Li are as sharp as Shaoran's.
"We meet again today, Young Girl." she places her right hand onto Tiá n Mei's cheek. "Thank you for ruining my diner, Dear. But I'd like to thank you, it makes me realize how bad you are. Wei, don't let her escape. Anymore. I've had enough." She, then makes her way back to her bedroom.
*Downstairs*
"LET ME GO! UGH… Shaoraaaaannn.. Help me!" Tiá n Mei is dragged by two strong guards, they won't let her escape like how Mrs. Li ordered. She meets 5 pairs of eyes downstairs. Glares at them with anger. Hatred. Then she turns to Sakura. "YOU! You never deserves Shaoran! Got that?" she spits on her. *SLAP* it is Meiling.
"Enough! You made her life miserable! Shut up and leave her alone! And Shaoran, too… You think Shaoran will come back to you? NO! NO means NO." Meiling turns to Sakura who is still in shocked with Tiá n Mei's act. "Sakura, have something to say to this mindless girl?"
Sakura steps forward. She hugs Tiá n Mei. That makes everyone surprised. "Tiá n Mei, I know how you love Shaoran. But your love isn't love. It might be lust. I understand how you felt. Really. So, I hope you find your own happiness. It might not be Shaoran who will make you happy. It may be someone else. Be happy, Tiá n Mei. Be happy, alright?" she pulls away, and wipes Tiá n Mei's tears.
It makes Tiá n Mei startled by what Sakura said to her. She's been fierce to Sakura. Yet Sakura wants her to be happy. "I'm sorry, Sakura." that's all she can say. By then the guards bring her away from the house. "Please, one more thing I want to tell Sakura…" Tiá n Mei doesn't look back at Sakura. "Thanks… Take care of him." Sakura smiles at her though she can't see it, but Sakura is sure she can feel it. "I surely will…" she whispers under breath.
"Whoaaa… I can't believe my eyes, Sakura! What magic you've been using?" Meiling squeezes Sakura in a tight hug. "That was awesome! So, I guess I leave you guys here. I'm gonna sleep. What a tiring night! See you all!" Meiling runs to upstairs leaving the four of them. "Well, what a night. Really. Guess we should go back too, Eriol?" Tomoyo gives a smile to the tired Eriol. He puts his arm around her shoulder and nod. "I guess, so. We'll be leaving, Wolf! I'll see you tomorrow…"
"Sakura, you should take a rest, too. Good night." Tomoyo smiles to Sakura. "Okay, get going. I'll drive tonight." Eriol is frowning. "No, you can't…" Tomoyo crosses her arms. "Yes… you ARE tired. Beside your hand is injured, DUH!"
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"No…!"
"YES…! Enough, Eriol! Don't complain! Anymore!" he sighs. And nod.
"Girls are fierce, right, Shaoran?" both Sakura and Shaoran chuckle at the couple in front of them.
"Well, Sakura isn't as fierce as yours…" he stick his tongue out and glares at Sakura who look back at him.
"You'll see Shaoran?" she stretches her arms up and down. "You have NOT seen it yet. So just you know, that I can be fierce if you want me to…"
"Uh-Oh…! Lets go Tomoyo… I'm afraid that someone will explode tonight!" both Eriol and Tomoyo giggle and they run as fast as they can.
"Beware, Li Shaoran! I'm coming to get you!" Sakura glares and smile evilly to Shaoran.
"Uh-Oh..! Oh NO! No, you won't!" He is running upstairs, followed by Sakura behind him.
"I will! I definitely!"
*The Next Morning*
Sakura's POV
I hear birds are chipping outside my window. Few more minutes, I let myself sleep. But still can't do that. So I open my eyes, to look around. I groan, run my hand thru my hair and sigh. Notice I'm not in my own room. What happened? Oh… I ran to catch him and ended up here in his room.
The figure beside me still sleeping. I guess. He's not moving an inch. Once again, I'm able to study his face. I quietly giggle to myself. Boy, how fine-looking he is. I'm lucky he is mine. Looks like a little boy when he sleeps like that. Very cute.
"Done watching me, Miss?" I startled at the husky voice. Stare at the figure who is in steady breath, with his eyes close. I thought he's only talking in his sleep. "Am I that attractive? So you can't take your eyes off me, Love?" I'm blushing and chuckles. "Am I that cute to you when sleeping?" he opens his eyes. I once again, stunned by those passionate brown eyes. A sleepy passionate brown eyes.
"Good morning…" he wraps his arms around me and kiss me gently. I smile at him.
Then I remember something. That box! "Oh! Wait! I'll be back in 5 minutes!" I pull away and leave him puzzled. I run to my room and find the green box is still there.
I'm panting. Sit myself on his bed. "This! For you!" I hold his hand and place the box on top his hand. He's now sitting in front of me and smiling back. "For me? Thanks, Sakura. Can I open this?" I nod.
Shaoran's POV
I open the box, to find a beautiful keychain inside. Wolf keychain, with diamonds on its neck. "T-Thank you, Sakura. It's beautiful. I'll cherish this forever." she laughs and hits me with her pillow playfully. "Cheesy!" I take her pillow down and look at her, "I wonder when…"
"…did I get that?" she cuts me off and chuckles. "Well, umm… before this all happened, actually. When we went to night market. I found this, and I wanted to give it to you… but I'm waiting for the right time… I don't know… but…"
I pull her into a hug. Kiss her forehead. She just gave her best smile and gift to me. "Thank you… Thank you…"
*Li Yelan's Bedroom*
Author's POV
"So, you call me, Mom?" Shaoran opens the door slowly, finding his Mother on her own bed, reading a book. She glances to her little wolf and smile. "Yes, come here, son. I guess you want to talk to me, about… lots of things." She puts down her book on the small table beside her bed. "Here. Sit beside me."
"I-I… Uh… I don't know where to start. But Mom, this is awkward." she strokes his hair gently. "You want to know about the choice I gave her, don't you Son?" he nods. "I can tell she IS different from other girls you've known, Shaoran. Did she call you when she was in that incident few nights ago?" he shakes his head. "No, Mom."
"Well, did she ask for your help that night?" he shakes his head one more time. "That told me something is different with Sakura. She is a strong girl. She doesn't want to trouble her loved ones. That's why when I knew she is special, I asked her to stay with you. Spend her life with you. Then she agreed."
"BUT! Why you had to do this to her? She lost her home… She… She…" Shaoran almost yells at his own Mother. She just smiles. "Sakura found her home within you, Son. Don't you feel it? Here?" She lays her index finger to his left chest. He smiles. He never been this close to his Mother before. Never been in this emotional situations before. "So, Li Shaoran. Have you proposed her?" he jumps a little by her question. He doesn't prepare anything to answer this kind of question. He just sits and stares at his Mother, blankly.
"Mom… I-I… Uh…" He looks away and glares at the crème bed sheets, then to the window. "Wait for me, Son. I have something for you." she then, stands up, walk to her wardrobe, pull the small drawer and back to her bed.
She holds Shaoran's hands and put a beautiful golden box in front of him. "W-w-what is this?" she opens the box for him. There lays a gold ring, with ruby-heart-shaped diamond in the middle of it. Lay few small diamonds all around. It still sparkling though it's kind of old. Shaoran knew by the way it looks. "T-T-This…"
"Mine. Your Dad proposed me with this ring. Now its your turn to pass this ring to you loved one." Shaoran surprised how his Mom can easily give away something precious to her. She never done this before. Not with his previous ex-es. "B-but…" she shakes her head. "NO BUTs, Shaoran… Propose her… alright?" she kisses his head gently. He nods, "Alright…"
He never been this happy. Before. Ever.
