Author's notes: Hi everyone! This is the last chapter of Room 256 Across from 257! I can't believe it's over! Time to answer some questions. First, some people wanted to know why Yue was so different personality wise. Well I felt the story might be more enjoyable if he was a little nicer. Not to mention that he hasn't lived for as long as he did in the series because he is a normal human being! So he wouldn't have suffered like he did with Clow. Another question was what about Yuki? Aren't he and Yue the same person? Well if you listened I said everyone are normal people! Two people being one is not normal! Well basically this chapter is based on letters that Sakura sends to her family after everything is finally settled. Now keep in mind that this takes lace about a year later. So please enjoy!
~Chapter Five~
"Dear Father, Touya, Yuki, Kaho and anyone left behind,
Hello everyone, (Yes Touya, it's your little monster!) Wow! It's been such a long time since we've talked. I know you're probably all worried about us and mad at us for taking off, but we had to. If we hadn't we wouldn't be as happy as we are now. So you want to know what we've been up to? Well we'll tell you.
Meling, Tomoyo and I moved into an apartment in Hong Kong and were living just fine on our own. After awhile we received news of new neighbors. Well it turns out that our new neighbors were none other than Syaoran, Eriol and Yue.
Now I'll go back and explain the reason we moved in the first place. There were a lot of misunderstandings in the past. Basically what happened was that Syaoran dumped me because he really loved Meling, not me and I understood, but got angry when Syaoran told Meling that he didn't love her though he really did. What really was wrong was that Syaoran was worried that he would end up hurting her and he didn't want to hurt her.
Then there was Tomoyo and Eriol. Remember on Christmas when Eriol got that necklace? And then later on Tomoyo ran out of the house crying? Well that was part of their misunderstanding! Tomoyo had given Eriol the gift but Eriol didn't know. Earlier, before we arrived, Tomoyo had confided in Eriol, telling him that she was in love but she didn't say it was him. Eriol was upset over this and went to Kaho for advice in the garden. Tomoyo went to find him and saw Eriol kiss Kaho, but it was only a kiss of friendship and she didn't know so she ran off crying and that was what pushed us to leave.
Well then Nakuru moved in with us. Yes Touya, Nakuru. She was certainly entertaining. Down the line I discovered what was keeping the other four apart and then became matchmaker for them. I confronted Syaoran and told him that if he truly loved Meling then he would not hurt her so he went and apologized to Meling and told him the truth. I then set up Tomoyo by telling Eriol where she was so he went to her and told her the truth she needed to know. They were all happy of course.
Now what of me? I bet your asking, well as time went on I became lonelier because Tomoyo and Meling were both in love with someone and I had no one. One day I was watching a movie with Yue and we shared our feelings for each other. Yes, Yue. I explained that I liked him, but I was still scared from my last relationship. Yue understood and gave me time, as we became good friends, because we weren't the best of friends before this whole thing.
That same night we got more new neighbors! This was a really strange coincidence so hold on tight. Some more of my friends from high school, Kero and Suppi, (SAKURA!) Oops, sorry, Spinal Sun, moved next door to us.
At the school dance I realized I didn't need to be scared. I was being just like Syaoran; I was scared that I would be hurt instead of being the one hurting someone. So I told Yue I really loved him.
I know, I know, really mushy right? Well so what? I'm happy and so are the others and that's what's important, right?
So how are you guys doing? Again we say that we're very sorry for leaving but we have decided to stay. Maybe someday we'll come back, but for now we're staying. We'll be coming to visit real soon don't worry!
Well I have to go now so I'll sum up this letter by saying three words. WE LOVE YOU!
Goodbye!
Sakura Yue
Meling Syaoran
Tomoyo Eriol
Nakuru Kero Spinal Sun
PS. Inside we have enclosed invitations to our weddings! Yes weddings! Tomoyo and Eriol are getting married in April, Syaoran and Meling are getting married in May and Yue and I will be wed in June! Please Touya don't freak! I don't want you to have a heart attack and not be able to come. Yuki, please calm him down.
"Wow, married?" Yuki said putting his hand on his forehead in disbelief. He had just read the letter from Sakura when he saw it in the mailbox. Touya and he had been visiting Fujitaka that weekend and he had been the first to see the mail truck coming. "Touya! Mr. Kinomoto!" He cried back to the house.
"What is it Yukito?" A female voice asked from behind him. Yuki spun around and saw Kaho.
"Kaho! It's a letter from the others!" He smiled widely.
"Sakura and the others?" Kaho gasped.
Yuki nodded eagerly. "Yuki what's wrong?" Touya asked as he and his father walked out of the house.
"Nothings wrong! Everything is perfect!" Yuki smiled. He handed Touya the letter. Touya read it aloud.
"Married!? My little baby sister is getting married!?" Touya exclaimed.
"Touya don't short circuit on us." Yuki laughed.
"Sakura isn't a little girl anymore." Fujitaka told his son.
"I know but it's just so sudden." Touya said cooling off.
"Well might I suggest we reply?" Kaho smiled kindly.
"Right!" Yuki agreed and they all walked inside to write a letter back.
Years later
Dear Touya, Dad, Yuki and Kaho,
It's me again! How are things with you guys lately? Things here are great as usual. Things are a little hectic but we deal with it. Life can sure be exhausting when you get older, who knew? I bet you did. Oh well.
My new job is working out fine. I'm now a middle school English teacher while Yue is an economics teacher at the local high school. Tomoyo is of course a fashion designer and is loving it. Eriol as we all know is set for life so we don't really need to go there. Syaoran and Meling are both happily running a martial arts school for children. So Touya, are you still switching from one job to another? I highly doubt it, but hey!
I know this is a really short letter but I don't have enough time. I promise I'll write you a longer one when I get the chance! Oh! Nadeshiko says hi!
Love ya!
Sakura
Someone tugged at Sakura's skirt. "Come on mommy!" A little girl pleaded. "I want to go play!" They girl had a smiling face like her mother's. Her eyes were her father's silver purple and her hair was honey brown.
"All right Nadeshiko." Sakura smiled. "Will you come with me to the mailbox first?" She asked. The little girl nodded. Sakura stood up and held out her hand to her daughter and they both walked to the mailbox. Sakura slipped the letter in and turned around.
"Piggyback!" Nadeshiko cried.
Sakura sighed. "Nadeshiko, your dad just gave you five piggybacks this morning." Sakura pointed out. "You tired him out so much that he needed to take a nap!"
"But that was earlier! I want one now! Please?" She begged.
"Oh alright!" Sakura sighed and kneeled down so Nadeshiko could climb on her back. Sakura then carried her daughter to the apartment across the hall from them. She knocked on the door.
Tomoyo greeted them at the door. "Hello Sakura, Nadeshiko!" She smiled.
"Hello!" A chorus of voices called from inside. Meling, Syaoran and Eriol were all sitting in the living room watching TV.
"Auntie Tomoyo, where are Reed and Mia?" Nadeshiko asked politely.
"They're playing in Auntie Nakuru, and Uncle Kero and Suppi's apartment." Tomoyo said pointing to the door next-door.
"Mommy may I go play too?" She asked.
"Of course." Sakura nodded. Nadeshiko skipped of and into the apartment.
"Come one in Sakura." Tomoyo gestured for her to move in. "Where's Yue?"
"Nadeshiko wore him out this morning. He should be here in a few minutes.
"Or how about now?" Yue said from behind her. Sakura jumped a bit.
"Hello Yue." Tomoyo smiled. They all walked into the apartment.
"Hey guys!" Sakura smiled at the others.
Yet again Eriol was starring off into space. (AN: Yes, he still does this!) "Oh brother." Sakura sighed and placed her hands on her hips. She rolled her eyes before saying, "Tomoyo!"
Eriol immediately snapped out of it. "Huh!? What!?" He cried.
Everyone burst out laughing.
