================================================================
Sakura arrived at the foot of a tall mansion by taxi. Everything
around her was concrete, steel and cement. It had been a long
time since she returned to Frankfort.
[I wonder where I am heading?]
"Come on Sakura, let!¡Âs go inside."
A strict lady, who was wearing a business-suit, greeted them.
She peered down at Sakura through her thin glass lenses. Her
clothes were of a black coat with a white blouse and a black
skirt and white high heels. She styled her shoulder-length, dark
brown hair into a ponytail.
[How slim and pretty she looks!|] Sakura thought to herself.
"I!¡Âm Miss Rottenmeir!| Are you Sakura?"
the lady looked down at Sakura.
"Y-y-yes!| Mrs. Rottenmeir!|" o_0 Sakura felt quite
frightened of the lady.
"Touya, I thought I asked you to bring someone OLDER
than Tomoyo, not the SAME age."
"But on the letter Mrs. Daidouji sent me told me to get
a companion not a sitter." Touya declared and felt a slight
quiver at the back of his throat.
"Very well but if you misread that letter you are surely
going to be chased out of your rental home with no money."
"It is none of your business and only between the Kinomoto
and Daidouji family."
The lady took Sakura by the hand and walked briskly away from
Touya and to the corridor. "Let me show to your room Sakura.
Oh, by the way I am MISS Rottenmeir, I am a single." Sakura
looked back. Why was her brother simply standing there? Didn!¡Ât
he promise they would go home after a visit to Frankfort? Why
was this lady showing her !RSakura!¡Âs!¡Â
room? Surely Touya is going to stay as well then!|
"This is your room and do unpack and put your things
around later, so you may feel comfortable. The laundry basket
is over there. Come now child I!¡Âll show you to
your companion Tomoyo."
[Tomoyo? What companion? I thought I only came for a visit!|]
Sakura shook her hand off Miss Rottenmeir. She observed her
room. It was rather grand with big beige curtains and ivory white
cushions on a creamy blue sofa. Her bed looked queen size with
pastel blue and streaks of white for the covers. Her room had
lots of blue and white colors. Even the wallpaper was white with
blue violets.
"Come now." A slight change came upon Miss Rottenmeir!¡Âs
voice. It had a more cold touch to it that Sakura even felt the
need of her jacket. "Yes miss." Sakura replied feebly
as they walked through the corridors. There was a painting upon
!RTomoyo!¡Âs!¡Â bedroom door. It looked
like a million colors all collided together. Streaks of yellow
and dashes of green, specks of red and flurries of blue!| it
was like one big !Rsplat!¡Â of everything.
"Miss Tomoyo Daidouji, your companion is present."
"Oh, come in." the door was opened from inside by
a pale girl with blue eyes and blue black long and wavy hair.
She was an invalid in a wheelchair. She wore a purple tank top
with a pair of, plain blue short jeans. The girl had a bright
but weak smile.
"You must be Sakura, I!¡Âm Tomoyo."
As Miss Rottenmeir left the room the invalid girl beckoned
Sakura to sit down.
"Where is my brother going to stay?"
"Stay? You must be joking. He came here to bring you
to my place." Tomoyo giggled slightly but stopped when Sakura
began to develop a pair of puppy eyes.
"But!| then how am I supposed to go back to Grandfather?"
"Well, my mother sent your brother to fetch you so I
can make a friend. It!¡Âs really boring during my
home schooling. I have to stay home practically all day long.
So you!¡Âre here to stay!|" Tomoyo tried to
smile to cheer Sakura but Sakura!¡Âs sadness deepened.
"I!¡Âll never get to go home then!|"
"Oh, please don!¡Ât cry, besides we!¡Âll
have great times here."

Syaoran quietly finished his homework and went outside with
his sword inside a bundle. As soon as he reached fresh air he
ran to the pastures where Yukito would normally be to take care
of the goats. Syaoran ran and ran like he always did at Sports
Day on the 50m dash. He felt the world whizzing around his and
the usually gentle breeze felt like a harsh and cold wind.
[Why was I so stupid and waited all this time instead of telling
her at the first place!]
Syaoran never was emotional all his life until now. A tear
gently rolled down his cheek. His heart began to race as he recalled
the past.
