Chapter 11: The reencounter

Touya was heading back home after his reencounter with Kaho. The moment he saw her he felt a lump in his stomach as they didn’t say goodbye the last time she left. He had missed her and she had missed him too… right? Kaho had always been quite impervious and even though he was still in love with her and she knew it she still behaved as if they were and always had been just friends. Touya was submerged in his own thoughts when he heard a particular voice behind him.

“She back, isn’t she?”

“Good night Yue-san…” said Touya turning around. “What are you doing here? Is Sakura all right?”

“Is not because of her I came here actually…” he said looking at the sky. “Is the Daidouji girl I want to speak about with you…”

Touya’ s face was full with distress beginning to think something might have happened to her.

“Is she…”

“She came to me today and told me about some past events.” Yue was looking at Touya’s eyes.

“oh, I see. I supposed she told you she’s in a grave danger.”

“she also told me she was worried about you…”

“Worried?”

“I want you to try to tell me what she told you about all this.”

Touya tried to remember but as the memories tried to get to his head there was something that didn’t allow them to get completely to him, he noticed Yue was concentrating on him and he told him in anguish.

“What are you doing?” he said approaching him.

“I’m sorry Touya but I can’t let you get into this… as she told me, you could get harmed.”

“But Tomoyo has no one to go to! I’m the only one who can help her!”

Yue raised a hand and Touya stopped.

“Fine…” said Touya to him. “I guess there must be a reason for this…Do whatever she told you, just… don’t leave her alone. I know, even if you refuse to admit it, you do care for her…”

“Then why are you still worried?” Yue put a finger on Touya’s forehead and a blue light came out of it making Touya close his eyes for a moment and then to open them again.

“Yue?” said Touya as if he hadn’t seen him in all this time. Yue just gave a sort of smile to him and then flew away leaving poor Touya way too confused.


The next day…

Kakero and Tomoyo were taking a walk near the park and chatting about some things…

“Everything is almost ready for the wedding.” Said Kakero looking at Tomoyo. “We’re going to have to wait after that and then try to make another move against my father.”

“wedding…” she just said to herself with her sight lost in her thoughts.

Kakero took her hand.

“Listen, I know this is not easy for you and neither it is for me but this time we can’t rush anything. We must be very careful, we must not make any suspicious movements and you know that…”

“Where is your father now?” asked Tomoyo looking at him.

“He went back home at Germany; he will come back in time for our wedding.”

“At least he’s far away for now.” Tomoyo smiled at him. “Germany…”

“Did you like it?”

“What?” she said looking at him with a confused look.

“Germany, my home?”

“What… do you mean? I’ve never been to Germany before.”

Kakero sighed.

“I guess that with everything that happened you never had the chance to ask where the place you were trapped in was…”

Tomoyo was speechless…

Flashback

She approached the window and opened the curtains. She was astonished by the beauty of the view. She started wondering if she was still in Japan. Everything looked so different…

“It’s time to get you back home dear.” Said Masato entering Tomoyo’s bedroom. “We are just waiting for you…”

Tomoyo looked at him with anger in her eyes then dropped her head without attempting to move. Masato called for Rochelle who got into her room bringing a small glass with what looked like water in it.

“Now precious, you must take your medicine…” he said taking the glass and handing it to Tomoyo who just raised her head to look at him still not moving. “Don’t worry, it is just a sedative. Believe me, it will be a more pleasant journey if you sleep for a few hours… It’s a long way back” Tomoyo didn’t make a move.

Masato grabbed Tomoyo’s arm forcefully making her gasp.

“It’s your choice child, either you make it easy for you or I’ll make it easy for me…” he said pointing with his head to one of his men holding a syringe on one hand. Tomoyo looked at the man and then again at Masato. “So…”

With a harsh movement Tomoyo freed her arm and took the glass to drain it into her mouth. It tasted like sugar with alcohol.

“Good girl. Now sit down please, we don’t want you to hit the floor hard and get hurt…”

Tomoyo’s sight started to cloud as he heard Masato’s voice further and further away.

End of flashback

“Do you mean we were…?” she said with a shocked look.

“yes… we were at Germany…”

Tomoyo shook her head. “No but…the other day when you invited me to have tea at your home…”

“We have a home here. If you remember, we actually never had tea and you never went to my home.”

At first Tomoyo thought it sounded way too ridiculous to be true but then she realized it actually made sense to her. She had so many questions for him so they started talking about many things Tomoyo had seen at his house until it was almost time for lunch. Kakero took Tomoyo home and he told her he had to go to Germany with his father as he had talked to him.

“I’ll be back in a week…” he said walking her to the house entrance.

Tomoyo smiled at him and with a hug she kissed his cheek.

“Please, take care.” She told him.

Kakero just nodded and returned to his car. Tomoyo watched him as he left, praying for him to return safely and for his father not to discover their new plan.


A few days later…

Tomoyo had just returned home from Sakura’s house. She was about to open the door but she stopped as she heard her mother’s voice approaching from inside the house.

“Oh Tomoyo, you’re here!” Sonomi came almost running out of the house.

“Mother! What is it?” said Tomoyo looking at her. Sonomi took out from her portfolio a big yellow envelope.

“Please take this to the bank and tell Mr. Shisey that here are the papers he asked me for.” She said hanging the envelope to Tomoyo. “I need you to go NOW, he’s leaving in about half an hour and I have to go back to the company. Could you do it please hunny?”

“No problem mom…”

“Great! I’ll see you later baby.” She kissed Tomoyo’s forehead and then left like a bullet followed by her guards. Tomoyo smiled at this as she loved the times when her mother was glowing with happiness and always running to catch a meeting.

She went inside the house and took her car keys but then left them again as she felt a desire to walk downtown. It was not so far and, if she left now, she would be there in time to catch Mr. Shisey. It was a sunny and beautiful day and Tomoyo was happily walking towards the bank when she saw Yuki walking towards her.

“Hello Tomoyo!” he said saluting her. Tomoyo felt a lump in her stomach remembering what happened a few nights before. “Where are you going?” he asked in his normal warm voice which made Tomoyo smile.

“My mother asked me to go to the bank and arrange some issues she has.”

“You will never change Tomoyo. Always sunk in business.” He said smiling at her. “I won’t steal more time from you. As always it was nice seeing you.”

“Take care Yuki.” She said as they both left in opposite directions. Tomoyo sighed in relief and then continued walking towards her destination.

Tomoyo spent almost two hours at the bank as there were some problems with the papers her mother had given her. She came out almost at 4 pm feeling tired and very hungry as she hadn’t eat yet.

“Two hours…two hours!!!” she said angrily and walking quickly as she was remembering what happened at the bank. “all he had to do was plot the number in the computer but noooo… he had to go and sti…” she had to stop as she crashed against someone bouncing of and landing on the floor.

The young man turned around helping Tomoyo to get up.

“I’m sorry I just…” She stopped as she saw who she had crashed with.

“Are you all right?” Said Eriol helping her stand up.

“Yes…” she smiled at herself. “I’m sorry, I did not see you…”

“Well, I noticed that. You almost run over me.” He said smiling at her.

Tomoyo smiled at him too and there was a short silence between them. They both fell awkward as it was the first time they spoke after they had breakfast almost two weeks ago. Since then they had been avoiding each other.

“I guess I must be going now.” He said sighing.. “It was good to see you…” He started walking away.

“Eriol wait!” Tomoyo walked towards him. “Please, I don’t want to keep doing this. I mean… we haven’t spoke in almost two weeks! Why don’t we just…try to make things easier for both of us. I don’t want to live like this anymore…”

Eriol looked at her and then he said with a smile. “Have you eaten yet?”

They both walked into a restaurant nearby. They started chatting about this and that with a lot of long silences and strange feelings, shy smiles and sights. It was late after they finished and they decided to go for a walk in the city.

“And… how is Kakero?” he finally said after a long silence.

“He’s fine thanks. He had to go out of town for a few days.”

“Really?”

“Yes, he had to go back to Germany. His father needed him there.”

“Tomoyo, now that I remember, I wonder what his family look like. Have you met his family?”

“Yes…” she said shivering at the memory.

“Is there something wrong?” said Eriol noticing this.

“No… ” She said crossing her arms. “It’s getting cold out here.”

Eriol took his jacket off and put in Tomoyo’s back.

“better?” he asked smiling at her. She nodded and they continued walking until they got to Tomoyo’s house.

“Thank you for your company today.” Said Eriol kissing Tomoyo’s hand making her blush.

“No, thank you Eriol.” She said smiling at him.

“I’ll see you one of these days then.”

“You can be sure of that.” She then waved a hand at him as he started walking away.

Tomoyo turned to open the entrance door but gasped as she felt a hand in her shoulder.

“I’m sorry if I scared you.”

Tomoyo turned around and looked up to a pair of beautiful light blue eyes.

“Yue!” said Tomoyo with surprise.

“I just came to tell you that I saw Touya the other night. I did what you asked me.”

Tomoyo’s eyes started filling with tears of joy and, before Yue could even notice, she caught him in a tight embrace.

“Thank you, thank you.”

Yue’s hard face softened as he saw the girl crying. He just put a hand on the back of her head and Tomoyo separated from him and started wiping her tears.

“I’m sorry…”

Yue gave her an “it’s all right” look and then turned around and disappeared. She then took a deep, calming breath.

“Well, I guess this day was not bad at all.” And with a smile she entered her home.


“KAIJUUUUUU!” Touya shouted with the phone in his hand.

“I AM NOT A KAIJU!” said Sakura getting in the kitchen.

“The piece of squid is on the phone.” He said hanging the phone to Sakura.

“Stop calling him like that!” she said blocking the phone so that Shaoran couldn’t hear their discussion.

“You’ve always said you liked my sincerity.” He said teasing her.

“Shhht…” she said slapping him in the back of his head.

“Don’t start…” he said standing up.

“Hey! Easy there. Woman with baby at the phone, now, shut it.”

Touya dropped again in his chair.

“I’m sorry hunny.” Said Sakura taking the phone.

“It’s ok darling… I know how difficult it is to deal with SOME people…”

“I heard that squid!” shouted Touya.

“Ok now you two stop it. I’ll take this in my room.” She said climbing up the stairs. “Hunny, don’t do that! It’s incredible that you two can behave as civilized persons.”

“I’m sorry darling. I guess I got carried away…”

“What am I going to do with you…” said Sakura shaking her head.

“Have I told you that I love you?” said Shaoran in a childish way which made Sakura giggle.

“I love you too.”

“Listen, darling. We have to go back to Hong Kong tomorrow. My parents just called me and it seems there are problems with some papers of the house.”

“Tomorrow?”

“I’m on my way there but I wanted you to know so you can start packing. We’re leaving at 10 am.”

Sakura sighed. “Ok darling. I’ll see you here then.” And she hung up. Then she went down the stairs again to find her brother in the same position she had left him. “I’m leaving tomorrow.” She said looking at him.

“What?!” he said standing up.

“Shaoran just told me there were some problems at Hong Kong so… we’re leaving at 10 am tomorrow.”

“And can’t he handle them alone? What is his problem? You can stay here.”

Sakura shook her head. “No Touya. He’s my husband and I must be with him now and always.”

Touya just smiled at her comment.

“Well in other things… now that I remember, I never had the chance to ask you. Why did you leave like that the other day?” said Sakura remembering the note he had left her. “You just left me a note and didn’t appear until late at night. I didn’t even hear when you came back.”

“I had to go and see someone…”

“so…” said Sakura trying to make him tell her everything.

“An old friend…” he said making an attempt to leave the room. Sakura recognized the look in her brother’s eyes.

“Mizuki-san is back, right?”

Touya nodded.

“And… what happened? Why are you like this?” she asked worried about her brother.

“We… had a cup of tea the other night and she told me she… she got married… 4 months ago.”

“oh…” said Sakura sadly. “Are you ok?”

Touya turned and smiled at her.

“I’m a bit hungry.”

“All right then. Let me prepare dinner…” she smiled at him too and they didn’t mention Mizuki for the rest of the night.


Tomoyo entered her room and noticed she was still wearing Eriol’s jacket. She took it off and placed it in her bed trying to ignore the scent in it but failing. She then took it again and held it in her arms, closing her eyes and breathing in the wonderful scent. It smelled like him…

Flashback

Eriol put his hands around Tomoyo´s waist and embraced her. They didn’t move, not an inch. He couldn’t believe she was back, with him. Tomoyo felt like a shock running through all her body while Eriol ran his fingers up and down her arms. They looked into each other’s eyes and Tomoyo was once again was trapped in those midnight blue orbs. Eriol slid his fingers up and down in her back with his other hand around her waist; she couldn’t do anything but keep looking at him... as if she were hypnotized she started to get close to him. She wanted so badly to kiss him. She loved him… she wanted to get closer...closer...

“Miss!”

Tomoyo jumped as she hard a knock in her door. She then placed again the jacket on her bed and opened the door.

“Yes?”

“Dinner is ready.” Said the maid bowing.

“Thank you Ritsko, I’ll be down in a minute.”

The maid bowed again and left.

“Three frights in a day…” she said laughing. “Not bad.” And she went downstairs to take dinner with her mother.


At the Hiiragizawa Manor…

Eriol entered the mansion drowned in his thoughts. He almost couldn’t believe what had happened that night… Tomoyo and him walking and having a great time like before. There had been quite a lot of awkward moments in between them but that didn’t stop them from having a great evening.

“Master!” said Spinnel waling towards Eriol. “It’s good to have you back. Specially with that… whatever you call that sack of guts running arou…”

Spinnel noticed Eriol wasn’t really paying attention.

“…and then the bomb exploded and we all died…” said Spinnel trying to get Eriol’s attention which didn’t work. “Miss Daidouji is cutting the grass outside.”

“What?” he said coming back from his inner self.

“Oh so that’s what it is. I guess you saw Miss Daidouji today…”

“Yes, I actually had lunch with her and we went for a walk near the park.”

“I see the reason of your behavior.”

“She’s so damn beautiful…”

“Master, in my humble opinion. I don’t think is healthy that if she’s marrying another man you’re still suffering because she’s not with you.”

“I know but… she’s just… perfect. The way she laughs, the way she walks, the way she looks at me… everything… I… I can’t get her out of my mind.”

“That’s because you’re in love.”

“I have to call her…” he said rushing upstairs.

“Master wait!! It’s almost midnight!”

Eriol didn’t listen to him and just took the phone and dialed Tomoyo’s cell phone.

…

Tomoyo wasn’t asleep. She couldn’t get the handsome gentleman with beautiful blue eyes out of her head and just as if she had called him her cell phone started to ring.

“He…hello?” But no voice was heard. “Is anyone there?” She heard the call had been cut.

“Who was that?” she said starting on her cell phone menu until he got to received calls…

The stinky English man 12:07 am.

“I can’t believe I still have him by that name.” she said giggling. “Why did he call at this hour?”

Tomoyo tried to call him back but just heard a woman’s voice on the phone.

“The number you called is out of service...”

“I guess I’ll have to call him tomorrow.” And she turned around and closed her eyes thinking about her wonderful day.
