Take Nothing for Granted A sweet little romance.

By Ying Fa

I'm not normal. My life is literally hell. You listening to what I'm saying here and your reaction is, how is that different from my horrible life. Well, I'll tell you. I have my own band. I have to do my own chores and cope with my parents' divorce. Not only that I still have to look after my brother. And I'm constantly chased by girls. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but it can get overwhelming at times. I'm also in love with a beautiful girl. Once again your reaction is, that's a bad life, you've got to be kidding.

I'm in love with Mimi Tachikawa. I'm absolutely crazy for her. It's a shame she moved to America, we could have been perfect for each other. I also have a secret. I'm one of the Original Digi-destined. So is Mimi, Sora, Tai, Izzy, Joe, T.K., and Kari. Not only do I have homework, band practice, and dinner, I have do battle evil. Well sort of. Anyway, I was unaware life could get any worse.

Example

"Matt, there's another dozen girls outside who want your autograph."

"Send them in, Steve."

"Matt, we just adore you."

"Matt, will you be my boyfriend?"

"Matt will you give me a kiss?"

This is all the crap I have to deal with. I didn't realize how many people would die for the life I have until I met Mimi again. It was a winter day right after band practice.

"Guys, that's a wrap."

"Hey Matt, there's a girl here for you."

"Send her in."

"Hi, Matt."

"Mimi, is that you?"

"Uh huh."

"Oh, it seems we've haven't seen each other for years. When did you return to Tokyo?"

"Last night. I called T.K. and he told me you were rehearsing here. The music was pretty good."

Mimi, the love of my life just gave me a compliment. I'm blushing. SCORE FOR YAMATO!

"So, Mimi what brings you here."

"Oh, I just wanted to spend a little time with the digi-destined, old and new."

"How about dinner?"

"Sure, where do you want to go?"

"How's La Trattoria?"

"That's awfully expensive."

"It's okay how often do you get to come back to Tokyo."

She was blushing and more beautiful than ever. We had a fabulous dinner and we walked by the beach afterwards. I couldn't hold back.

"Mimi, I love you."

"I love you too Matt. There's something I need to tell you."

I had this gut feeling something bad was about to happen.

"What's wrong Mimi? You don't have some boyfriend you need to go home to, do you?"

"Matt, I'm dying."
