An Unexpected Reunion

Summary

That day is Reedington Elementary's sports day—one of Sakura's most favorite days. Tori and Julian are there to cheer her up, and Julian shoots a lot of pictures of Sakura in performance. Her cheerleading demonstration goes really great except when she dropped her baton on the head. Sakura and Li are neck and neck in the obstacle race, but by some good luck to her, Li trips himself just before the goal, then Sakura won the championship.
Li tripped and fell beucase of... I don't have any clue... whereas Syaoran tripped and fell because he got upset to know that Yukito was rooting for Sakura and Syaoran.

Aiden manages to show up in the lunch time, so Sakura is very happy. After they've enjoyed the jellies Aiden brought, Aiden and the two teenagers walk off to take the trash out. At this time, Samantha Taylor—Madison's mom—shows up. To the surprise, Samantha turns out to be Aiden's archrival since they were kids. She doesn't still like that he married her best friend Natasha, and won the championship in the nationals defeating her. Their compeitiveness gets the best of them, and the two of them decided to race in the 400 meters dash for parents.
The relation of Aiden, Samantha, and Natasha is totally different than CCS. Samantha was Natasha's best friend, and Aiden is almost the same age as them. Samantha is Aiden's archrival that she bore a grudge on his championship in the nationals defeating her. In CCS, Sonomi and Nadeshiko were cousins, and Fujitaka was their teacher in high school. Sonomi hated Fujitaka since she felt as if he stole Nadeshiko at her 16—by marrying her—though Samantha loved her by the affection not just a friendship.

On the bang of start, Samantha speeds up ahead of the others, but Aiden passes her in a few seconds. But at this time, a strange thing begins to happen. Uncountable flower petals fall and cover the playground, piling up in an amazing rate. Samantha and Aiden in the race are making their ways ahead pushing the petals aside. Actually, that is the work of the Flower Card, a party lover. Li, who also senses the Card, gets his way blocked by Zachary, so he can't be out to capture. Sakura finds the Flower Card dance on the roof, and then successfully seals the Card, when Aiden crosses the goal defeating Samantha.
Sakura sensed the Clow Card on her own... unlike CCS, she wasn't still supposed to know how to sense the Clow Card, though

This unexpected reunion makes Sakura think of some destiny. Sakura's mom and Madison's were closest friend 20 years before, that kind of means Sakura and Madison are destined to get along great. Both Sakura and Madison hope there may be the day when Aiden and Samantha will put their past aside to become good friends with each other.
