the sequel to 'These Tears of Mine'
Chapter 1
The Plan
-Kari
It's been 2 weeks already since I've seen him. He's stopped coming so school… stopped meeting friends… he might have just disappeared again… I'm worried, of course… But hurt and betrayal nearly blind all other emotions… I don't know if I can ever forgive him for what he did…
I always ask myself… Will I ever love again?

"PLEEASE?" Tai begged Kari on the phone. "If you do this for me, I'll.. I'll do all your chores for a month!"
Kari sighed into the receiver. "Why's it so important? It's not like you HAVE to study right now! Usually you study the period before the test!"
It was 4:30 Thursday afternoon. Kari was still at school due to cheerleading practice and Tai had called her on her cell to pick up his Trigonometry book from Matt's house. Matt had borrowed it the day before and had forgotten to bring it back. And Tai was begging Kari to pick it up on the way home.
"Fine. I'll do it, but you have to do EVERYTHING I say, okay Tai?" Kari said crossly. She had been in a very unpleasant mood for two weeks straight… ever since she had broken up with T.K.
"Great!"
Kari hung up and walked towards her locker.

"Come on T.K. Just come over for 30 minutes. That's all I'm asking you!" Matt said.
T.K. sighed. Out of nowhere, his brother had called him and told him to come over and help him with something. What, he wouldn't say, but he sounded pretty anxious to get him over there.
"Fine. I'll be there in a few minutes."
T.K. threw on a warm jacket and grabbed his backpack. Maybe Matt needed help with his homework or something… Although that made no sense since he was a couple grades above T.K…
T.K debated on taking a cab or just walking there, because he needed to save his strength… But he decided to walk since it wasn't too far away. Hope nothing goes wrong on the way, he thought.

"So you're sure she said she will?" Matt asked.
"I'm sure," Tai replied. "She didn't seem too happy about it, but I'm sure she's going there this very minute."
"Great. "
*pause*
"Uh, Matt… I'm sure you probably know this already, but have you noticed T.K's not acting himself these days?"
*pause*
"What are you talking about?"
"I mean, it's kinda weird because just three weeks ago, he was crazy about my sister and suddenly he breaks it off? And why'd he stop coming to school? Plus, he never comes to digidestined get-togethers.. And the only time I saw him in two weeks was at the hospital a few days ago…"
"Hospital? Why?! Was he sick?!"
"I dunno. I was there to drop something off for my dad (let's just say Tai's dad is a doctor) He said he just stopped by to pick up something for his mom because she wasn't feeling too well. But he didn't look so good either…"
Matt was thinking carefully. "You know, now that I think about it, he has been acting a bit weird these days… Maybe it's just the Kari thing."
"I guess… Well, I'll see you tomorrow."
"Yeah. See ya later."
