I got the idea for this from someone else's story ^-^;;; I couldn't help it. I
had to write this.
Its Yolen's letter to Tai. He was always like an older brother to her so I hope
you enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own digimon. Only Yolen. This is one of those rare times she
acts sane!
Dear Tai,
I guess life has past us before we realized it. I don't know why I'm writing
this I'm
just writing what comes to mind. I hope maybe after I send this I'll understand
why..
you always were such a great older brother, even if you weren't mine. You took
care of me, listened to my pathetic whining, and loved me like a brother should.
I broke that.
I failed. I didn't believe it at first you were the brother I never had, you took
care of me when
I fell into depression, and when I cried you comforted me.
I'm so sorry Tai, I honestly, I am. I remember meeting you, I was only 4. You
were
at my daycare. Your true sister was terrified of being there, and so was I. You
saw me and
smiled. I smiled back, suddenly I didn't feel so lonely anymore. You were the
brother I never
had. You were in my classes my entire life. I was always smarter then you, we
both admitted
it. But you didn't mind, you just copied my homework and lived with it.
A year later was so interesting for us. You had just turned 6 not to long ago
and I
was 5 still. It was the middle of July. All of a sudden I was rushed over to
your house, and
we were left alone. Kari, you and I. We stuck Kari in bed and let her sleep. She
never had the
enthusiasm for life as we did. When she was napping, we were always playing.
Anyways, We spent the whole night in your room. I had cried. I remember that. My
mum had left and she had been crying and looked like she was in pain. You had
told me it
was ok and not to worry, that my mum would be back soon. You seemed so confident
then.
Like you knew what was happening, even though you weren't as smart as me.
We found out a week later, that I had a new baby brother. Tiami Mitikama
Hitamiya.
He was very cute as a baby. Remember how tiny he was? We tried to stick him in
our teddy
bear's clothes. He actually fit too. Kari didn't like him, and thus her whistle
began.
Life was always fun with you. From when we were 5, We were big trouble makers
but no one would ever even begin to think that Perfect Taichi Kamiya and Yolen
Hitamiya did
something would believe Izzy did it before they would believe we did. I always
found
that funny. Even when we were caught in the act. They never blamed us.
Remember, Tai? When I was barely 10, you asked me if I knew about sex.
Of course I did. You knew I did but was stalling anyway. I merely nodded,
wondering what was
up. You sighed staring at me with your soft brown eyes. How I wanted to reach
out and
comfort you. Then you whispered softly to me, that you were in love with Sora.
I could have screamed then. I had always hated Sora. She always wanted you to
leave
me with Kari. You never did of course, said I was part of you and it would be
like you with out
your goggles. She never liked me and I didn't like her because she would always
fight with me
over anything she could possibly do.
I bet you don't even remember how you got those do you? We were both about 4-5
and our mom's had left us in the strollers as they went to go look at new dishes
and the sale on
Tofu. (How I could have killed your mom for getting my mum hooked on tofu.) You
had reached
over and grabbed a pair of sports goggles and put them on, trying to scare me.
I remember what happened next, do you? I had pulled them away from your face,
about a good foot, then let go watching it smack back into your forehead. You
yelped. I could see
the whole area around the goggles turn red. I screamed for mum and when they
came back I was
in big trouble. The goggles had dug into your skin, and we had to buy finally
came
undone from your skin though, after about 2 days.
That was when you were younger though. Then you gave that stupid git, your
goggles. I
pleaded with you not to give them to him. Cried and wailed but you ignored it. I
wish I knew why
you gave them to him. The boy. Davis. He was Shiara's adoptive brother. That's
the only reason I put
up with him. Otherwise I would have beat him. You knew I would have too. Sure
he was cute,
anyone could see that, but he had the brain of a rockmon, and he lusted for
Kari. I knew though she
didn't have that dumb of a brain.
She chose T.k . I'm proud of they'll get married, just like Shiara and Matt.
That
was a lovely wedding and walking down that isle with you was so romantic.
Somehow though, Kari's
pregnant, I hope the child's looks tells us who's the we won' t know whether to
congratulate the father or to beat him to death.
Well anyway. Remember our fun? There was my 13th birthday. I was so nervous
for it. You laughed at how I shaked so much, and told me not to worry. Tiami was
there. Only 8 at the
time. We still wonder where he came from because we both know he couldn't be the
child my mother
had. How she adored you. Thought you to be perfect because you were so athletic,
caring, loving, and
got good grades.
But that was because of me. We both knew that. We both also knew, you weren't
perfect.
You got in tons of trouble and loved it. I always went with you no matter what.
But you were only a
year older then much I cared for you, and you took me with you. We got drunk
together, that
first time, and sang the YMCA song. When I was 15 we got high together. That was
so funny. You ran
down the street naked yelling your underwear will eat you soul.
And at your 16th b-day party. That was a blast wasn't it? We left the house at
midnight and
snuck to the Solar Light. That was so much fun. We stumbled back into the house
drunk and laughing.
Your mom asked us where we had been, that is was 9 in the morning. We just
laughed and climbed into
your bed.
We woke up at 10 that night, with major that Tai? We thought we had
done something because we didn't remember what we did the night both had totally
panicked
and hoped in your car, driving to the hospital. I had totally hated that doctor.
But he just told us, that
nothing had happened.
We were totally relived. You took me home and my mom screamed at us. She
couldn't believe
that we were gone since 3 the other day and was just then getting there.
Remember how disappointed she
looked? That her perfect being hadn't even called.
We were, of course, grounded. But it didn't matter because you would come
babysit Tiami. Or
at least that was our excuse. We normally just sent him straight to bed, then
watched TV. drinking
something or playing some new game.
Then there was when you were 17 and I just turned it. We went to America and saw
the weirdest
clothes and such. We knew English so getting places was pretty easy. But that
one day we were bored and
went channel surfing and found that show Card captors. Then we went into that
weird phase and ran around
all of Florida looking for anything Card captors.
We came back with wwwaaayyy more stuff then before we left. I think we had every
collector card,
costume, doll, plushy, and movie ever. Then we went home and bought more stuff.
We spent all our free time
memorizing the words to the movies. Our mom's thought we were insane when we
went to school you wearing
Li's card capturing outfit and me in Sakura's pink outfit.
After that we were banned from wearing them to school though. Remember that Tai?
Because my skirt
was too short. It was a blast as Sakura and Li. We got so many looks, and not
just looks that said,"Oh My God!
Those poor insane people." Of course we ended up drunk that night as well and
ran down the road yelling. "Key of
of the Wand. The Force Ignite. Release!"
When we got home, We snuggled up in my bed. How I remember I don't really
know...I just do. That year
I got my first boyfriend. If found it funny how you quizzed him before we could
go. He must've freaked. But then
again it was Ken I went out with. You were there for me when he left me as well.
When his family moved to Hong
Kong.
It was so depressing. I remember wandering around the streets for about an hour.
Then suddenly it
began to pour rain. It was freezing the rain, and yet it seemed to dull my pain.
Kari had walked by with T.k in their
umbrella. I looked at them. Then I remember them guiding me to your house.
When I got there I was soaked, cold, and probably looked horrible, but you
hadn't said anything. You pulled
me to you and said it was ok, and you'd do what you could to make it better.
After that it was another blur but
somehow I managed to take a shower and put on one of your t-shirts and a pair of
your boxers. Then you pulled me
to you as I drifted to sleep.
Our years after being 18 were quick. We went to college and had tons of fun.
Kari studied to be a Teacher
and you went off to become an ambassador at some school. I became a reporter.
Did you know that Tai? I bet you
did. I'm a world famous reporter and journalist.
I'm really sorry Tai. I broke our promise. Our promise of friends forever. I
can't stay a friend forever. It would hurt
me too much. Because I love you Tai. I fell in love with you. From that first
smile to the time we actually kissed even
if it was good bye.
I love you Tai and I hope you understand why I haven't kept our promise...
With Love,
Yolen.
