Chapter 5 – Matchmaking Time
xX Recap Xx
Sakura wished desperately that things would return to normal…just like the sweet times they had together as children. They were just carefree and young…they did anything they wanted…
An urgent knock on the door jerked her back to reality. Realising that it must be Tomoyo, she opened the door to see…
---------
When there's a dream come true,
When there's a big misunderstanding,
And no time to correct it,
There's bound to be…
A twist .

-slap-
Syaoran stood there, paralyzed in confusion and…pain. Sakura had just hit him… no… slapped him on the cheek!
He raised a shaking hand and gently pressed it against the side of his red cheek. Glancing up cautiously to see her reaction He gasped in horror and concern when he saw that it was streaming with tears. Her face was a mess and her hair looked like someone had torn at it. Her pretty green eyes were red and blotchy, and she was panting heavily.
Sakura took a deep breath. She hadn't recovered from what just happened yet. To see…Syaoran…standing on the doorstep. She was lucky she didn't faint from shock.
"YOU…" Sakura was going to shout something at Syaoran when she realised she couldn't. She just…couldn't. She had already slapped him. Slamming the door in his face, she slumped on the other side.
Now what? He's just going to give up… and then hate me… What have I gotten myself into!?
Sakura moaned into her hands. Her life was now a mess. And the bad thing was? She didn't know how the hell to fix it…
Syaoran walked across the pathway, kicking maple leaves out of his way.
I screwed up. Again. Why do I always have to be the one? My only chance, my one opportunity came when Sakura came to Hong Kong but what did I do? Blow it up. There probably will never be a chance ever again. Sakura's too pretty to stay alone for too long…
In his angry tantrum, he furiously kicked a stone at watched it skid across the dirt. He needed help. And the best place to go? Her best friend. Tomoyo…
Sakura sat on the couch, slumped, waiting for Tomoyo to come home. She felt a stab of guilt; she had left all the shopping bags with her…
I hope Tomoyo will be okay…
On queue, there was a knock on the door. Sakura sighed in relief when she found that it was Tomoyo. Tomoyo rushed in, instantly comforting her best friend.
"Are you ok? Oh god…I'm so sorry! I should never have let you run back here alone! I should have chased you damn it!" Tomoyo said, concerned.
"I'm okay…and you shouldn't be sorry. I left you with all the shopping bags. I'm really sorry…" Sakura apologized.
"No, no! Don't! It's okay, I got Meiling to help me…" Tomoyo explained.
As soon as she had said it, Meiling came striding in the door. Taking one look at Sakura's face was enough for her to come rushing to her side.
"What happened?" Meiling questioned calmly. When Sakura didn't say anything, Tomoyo explained for her.
"We were out shopping, remember?"
Meiling nodded, recalling what Tomoyo had said to her in the morning.

"Hi Meiling! Sakura and I are going to the mall today. Is that ok with you?" Tomoyo asked cheerfully.
"Yeah sure, Tomoyo. Just take care of yourselves and don't let anything bad happen ok? I don't want my guests to be depressed on their 2nd day here!" Meiling laughed.
"Don't worry! We're going to have the time of our lives!" replied Tomoyo joyfully as she skipped out of the kitchen.

Realizing what Meiling was thinking about, Tomoyo instantly felt guilty.
"I'm so sorry Meiling…"
"Don't be, Tomoyo. It just happened to be a bad day…" Meiling comforted.
Sakura cleared her throat. Both Meiling and Tomoyo jumped. They had both forgotten that Sakura was with them in the room.
"I think I'll go take a hot bath and then go to sleep." Sakura said, standing up and walking towards the stairs. She turned around. "Goodnight, Tomoyo. You too, Meiling." With that, she walked up the stairs and disappeared out of sight.
When Meiling was sure Sakura couldn't hear or see them, she gripped Tomoyo's shoulders and shook them gently.
"You must tell me everything that happened. EVERYTHING." Meiling said, her eyes glinting with curiosity and excitement.
Tomoyo grinned, just as excited as Meiling.
Time for a matchmaking plan to take action…

Reunited, once again.

When love blooms?
