Holic Rumor Mill (144)

Oh my. I think my heart just broke.



Chapter 144

Watanuki wakes up, gets off the bed and opens the door. Yuuko was standing beneath the cherry tree.

Watanuki: Is this
also a dream?
Except for Doumeki, Himawari-chan,
is the fact that I have no memories of meeting anyone because this it's a dream?
Watanuki: If I awakened, would I know?
Would I know exactly that
having met you is reality, Yuuko-san?
... I'm
not human, am I?
Yuuko: No.
You're human.
Just like that child.

The, "Don't disappear," voice that was heard many times is recalled.

Watanuki: Why did Shaoran-kun paid a price so that I wouldn't be gone?
Yuuko: Because you and that child are the same.
Even so, you and that child have a bond thicker than anyone else.
... Why is that you
cried?
Watanuki: ... If it was a dream, what should I do?
Meeting,
and meeting, (T/N: New spelling for "meet". This appears to be the same as 遭う, which has a negative nuance, as in something dangerous or accidental.)
if those were a dream.
There are people who'd be sad should I be gone.
... If I think about the people who'll be sad.
Yuuko: Because you were able to have such thoughts,
the future is already changing.
... There are two dreams.
The dream you have when awake and the dream you have when asleep.
And
either dream
will become reality if you strongly wish for it.
The truths you experienced strengthen you.
And, if you continue to wish with that strength, the dream will become reality.
... Is there something you wish
from me?
Watanuki: There is.
I have a lot I want to ask.
But I'll pass.
Yuuko: Why?
Watanuki: Because I think when the time comes, you'll tell me,
Yuuko-san.
Yuuko: With the due payment.
Watanuki: So please tell me one more thing.
Yuuko-san, if there's a wish you'd like granted,
if that is something I can do,
I'll do my best,
I'll do my very best,
so please tell me.

Yuuko gently hugs Watanuki close, smiling quietly.

The truths he experienced and the bonds with people have strengthened Watanuki until now!! "I want to grant Yuuko-san's wish." What is the truth brought forth by this wish!?

The sakura again? *SHIVER*

Yuuko, explain yourself right this moment! What the heck do you mean by "the same"?

CLAMP, please stop coming up with different spellings for that damn verb, I'm running out of styles here!

What exactly is the deal between Shaoran and Watanuki? Failed counterpart? Reincarnation? Dream dual? Did Watanuki even exist when Shaoran made the deal to save his life? Gah, at this rate it's not just my heart that will break, my brain will too. T_T

Let's all pray to the deities we believe in (and to ones we don't as well) that CLAMP change their minds about the release schedule, because there's a -monster- break coming up. October-freaking-15th!!!
