Shi-chan: I chose editing this story over passing Psychology 1001. Go me. :-P Oh yeah--I'm Kittie's beta-reader, Shimegami Ichijouji. Hajimemashite. ^_^ Read on!
Hewwo every one this is my new fanfic, it has been based on "The Family Man," god how I love that movie. I don't own digimon or this movie wish i did though :,(
This is Mimato again, I have an obbession, bugger me *no thanks* good *sticks her tongue out* I really wish I had a brain.
I have thought about this idea for a while it just had to fit Mimi and Matt again. *hears people yawning* I wrote a plan so hopefully this should go smoothly. Matt is 31 and Mimi is 30, okies? Goodie. I promise I will write more chapters to Ride, Take A Stab At My Heart, Christmas Blues and Play The Game. I really should stop writing more stories when I haven't finished the others. Oh well!
Please relax and enjoy :)
*~*The Family Man*~*
*The Beginning*
Matt Ishida had it all: money, looks, a great job and any girl he wanted.
But why would a man with everything be working on Christmas Eve?
Matt sat alone in his New York office, looking over piles of paper. He was a stockbroker of great accord and very dedicated to his work. "Pete, I need this deal sealing by tomorrow." Pete was twice the size of anyone Matt knew; with brown hair and brown eyes though really too shy to stand up to anyone most of the time. "Matt, I have children, it's Christmas Eve, don't you go anywhere?" Pete moaned.
"That's a sore bit," Alicia, the secretary, told Pete as she placed more papers on Matt's desk.
"You're a slave to your wife and children, huh?" Matt asked, looking over his papers.
"I want to see their faces on Christmas morning when they open their presents. Why is that a sore point?"
Alicia smiled "Well, when he was 18 years old on Christmas Eve, Matt left his girlfriend."
"What?"
"Matt, why don't you explain?"
Matt looked up and put the paper down. "No thanks, you're doing a good job, Alicia," Matt replied as he left the office. "I need to speak with Mr. Lewis; I'll be back."
Alicia gave Pete a pained smile. "Well, as I was saying, Matt and his girlfriend had planned on him going away, but when it got to the Airport in Japan, she wanted him to stay with her."
"What did he do?" Pete asked.
"He left, saying they had planned it, then he never heard from her again. He chose money over love!"
"No wonder he doesn't like this time of year..."
"Yeah, well, I'm going home, night Pete."
"Night, Alicia."
"Aw, Matt, last one here at night, and first one here in the morning, even working on Christmas Eve?"
"Of course, John, we have that deal to be signed tomorrow."
"Of course. You know, Matt, you remind me of myself when I was your age, young and great stock broker with a future ahead of him."
"Thanks."
"Well, you should go on home, will I see you here tomorrow?"
"You bet! Good night, John."
"Night, Matt."
The lift doors opened and Matt came face-to-face with Mick, the security guard. "Good night, Mick."
"Night, Matt, have a good Christmas."
"You too." Matt replied as he walked through the doors. He took out the keys to his red Porche. "I need to go and get some milk," Matt reminded himself out loud as he got into the flashy car. He pulled up at the nearest convienience store and locked up the car again, listening to the bells tinkle as he walked into the shop.
Now, where's the milk? Matt's thoughts were interrupted by a young black man at the counter trying to make the shop keeper sign his lottery ticket. "Sign my lottery ticket!"
"No," the shop keeper replied, looking annoyed.
"Come on! Sign my ticket!"
"No!"
"I'm giving you one last chance to sign it." the young black man pulled out a gun.
"You don't want to do that!" Matt told the man.
"You shouldn't be getting involved in this, this has nothing to do with you!"
"Look pal, I'll pay you 200 dollars for that lottery ticket, it doesn't bother me. I can make 24 thousand down there." Matt pointed to a row of offices.
The man looked at Matt then looked at the money. "Fine."
The two of them slowly walked out the shop. The black man smiled at his companion. "You must be missing something in your life."
Matt sighed.
"What are you missing?" the man leaned against the wall.
"Nothing. My life is perfect."
"You brought it on yourself, Matt." Matt watched the man laugh and walk off. How did he know my name?
The puzzled man got in his car and parked outside his apartment. The door man was waiting inside. "Good evening, Mr. Ishida."
"Good evening, Robert." Matt got into the lift and was greeted by Mrs. Katie Teasdale. Mrs. Teasdale was a woman in her middle 50s who always liked to talk with Matt. "Evening, Mrs. Teasdale, so how is your sex life lately?"
"Well, hopefully I'll get myself a seeing to tonight, I found myself a new young man!" Matt smiled. "How's yours?"
"Just girls in and out; that's all my life," Matt laughed.
"No relationships, then?"
"No." The doors opened to allow Matt exit. "This is my stop--good night."
"Good night," the lady replied as the doors closed.
Matt fumbled around looking for his keys and found them in his suit pocket, opening the door to his huge apartment. "What a boring day." Matt sighed and fell into bed, curling up under the huge duvet. "I hope something at least mildly exciting happens tomorrow."
With that last thought, Matt drifted off to sleep.
To be Continued.........
