Well, here you go.
Now, I just want to make one thing clear, I did not in any way influence Rika to chose me. I honestly think she chose me due to my potential. I was a rookie, they were champion and higher. She saw what she could do, what she could create. I was a blank slate, they were preset. I was, however, a perfectionist, I hated failure. When ever Rika was in trouble, I blamed myself.
Not to say that she can't take care of herself. No, far from it. She can handle NORMAL threats, but not the digital kind. Regardless, I made sure to never leave her side. And yet, I did, albeit involuntarily. I wonder what she thinks of me, now that I returned. Hopefully she doesn't hate me. She asked me to cut the link when I returned, even though it was already cut.
I was always a silent observer. I saw things that others missed. Takato was always staring at Rika, although I never could tell if it was from love or amazement. At first, I thought it was amazement. When I returned, however, I learned that it was love. When he was nervous about telling her, after the locomon incident, he talked to me. I was shocked that he spoke to me. I told him it was his choice. And now they are happily dating. Speaking of which, that's where they are now.
While Rika and her mother did not always get along, her grandmother was a different story. She was kind, believing, and sensible. She thought of me as Rika's guardian angel, which wasn't far off. I remember that she often covered for Rika when there was a digimon attack.
And lastly, I remember how much pain she felt when her grandmother died of a heart attack. Rika was crying for hours. She had nightmares for weeks. It was then I realized that life was fragile. I would lose Rika eventually, and then I would watch over her child, as I did Rika.
Well, was it good, bad, sad, depressing, terrible? Review and tell me what you think.
