Chapter one:
"Come on! You are kidding right?! How is it that I have to wait another hour to get on my flight?! A girl shouted at the airport to an assistant as she checked in.
"We are very sorry about making you wait so long to take your flight to Japan Miss Tachikawa but we can't do anything to help. The plane is late due to a storm at the south and--" said the assistant in a calmed voice.
"And what am I supposed to do for a whole hour?! I've been waiting for that stupid plane since 4 am and now it's almost 9am! I… Am I supposed to wait another hour?? You must be kidding!" she screamed almost crying
"There's nothing we can do to get you to Japan until the plane arrives, so the only thing you can do is wait. Please miss calm down and have a seat... You can also go to the cafeteria and have breakfast or a dessert if you want. The company will cover all expenses for you, so don't worry." Said the assistant again but trying to sound firm and sure of what she was saying. It was clear enough that the assistant was scared about the girl's reaction, so the only thing she hoped was that the girl would calm down and wait at the cafeteria.
"o.k." said the girl. "But if I have to wait longer , make you sure you start looking for another job like the rest of the others here!" Then she smiled, turned back and started to walk to the cafeteria, where she had been sitting since 5 am.
The assistant took a deep breath 'oh god, this plane better get here in less than an hour, if' not, I'm going to be killed by this little crazy bitch.' Though the assistant.
At the cafeteria she was really upset. She ordered a strawberry cheesecake. It was 9 o'clock in the morning, besides she didn't usually eat any kind of dessert at the airport or at any restaurants because she knew that her mother's were the best, even hers were better than any other in the whole New York but she was so upset with everyone. She just wanted to go back to her mother. When her dessert was placed in front of her, she also asked for a mocha coffee. Since when did she eat so much candy? Yes, she loves them but she never ate them so early in the morning, though. She started to eat and then to drink her sweet coffee. She though of what had happened.
FLASHBACK
"You can't leave! Don't go! Why are you leaving?! Stay here!" cried Michael as she told that she was moving back to Japan.
"I can't Michael, you know I can't" said she in a sad voice. "You know how the situation with my family is right now "
"Yeah but—"she was interrupted by him but she cut him off
"They are separated right now and maybe they're getting divorced as soon as possible… don't you understand? My mom needs me right now. I can't leave her to deal with all of this just like that!"
"But Mimi you're leaving me!" he replied.
"I know and I'm sorry but this is not a goodbye, we'll see each other soon you'll see…" but Michael didn't smiled back at her like she was.
"Oh, come on! Don't make me pick! Please. You're one of my best friends. I know its hard 'cause I don't want to leave you here. I'm going to miss you so much!" as she said that she hugged him very tight.
"me too…" replied Michael seconds later and before she broke the hug, he hug her back and hold her so tight as this was a goodbye for ever. She wanted to cry and truly tried hard to not but she couldn't. Then she could feel a warm tear on her neck. He was crying, too. That made her cried even harder, till there were no more tears to cry.
After that he let her go and walked away. He didn't turned back to say see you in a while like they used to when she/he went to travel. She knew maybe she wasn't coming back after all but it broke her heart. Her best friend in these 5 years was kind of upset and sad because her leaving him but she couldn't do anything about it. So she turned away, taking her luggage with her and looking for a taxi to drive her to the airport.
END OF FLASHBACK
She finished her dessert. It was almost time to get her plane, well, so she hoped. Then her thought turned again to Michael.
'Why did you look for me at 3 am, you couldn't catch me before? And why did you look again for me to ask me again to stay, when I clearly explained to you why I'm leaving? Oh Michael…' though she but her thoughts were interrupted by a voice calling her
"Please miss Tachikawa Mimi, go to gate 9 to get your flight on time" she stood up and walked to gate 9. Once she was at her seat on first class she closed her eyes and tried to get some sleep. It was not so difficult because she was tired.
"What?!" asked the boy.
"You heard me already. We have new neighbors and I want you to go and meet them. I was there in the morning. I think that she and her husband are getting divorced. She didn't say exactly that but because of her gaze… well that's not important now. You go and help her with all the boxes that are still outside. I don't know where the workers go but they're not back and it's already 6… and it might rain today so please, go and help her!" her mother exclaimed.
"But--"
"No buts! Go and do it Taichi!" she said loud and firmly.
"And Kari?" he asked, hoping her sister could go too.
"She is out with that Takeru Ishida, really nice boy."
"What?!" he asked shocked "she can go out when I cannot because of helping my new neighbors? That's not fair!"
"Taichi listen to me. Your sister is at Takerus studying for their exam tomorrow, so if you don't mind, the rain is going to start soon so hurry up and go." She looked at her son and he was making a puppy face. "Besides the woman has a daughter. If she looks like her mother she shall be really beautiful. Maybe you both can be friends and then date and then you both can get married! Wouldn't be that nice?"
"Mom please, stop dreaming!"
"What? You don't like the idea that a very pretty girl, maybe the prettiest you ever meet is going to live next door?
"C'mon, we aren't so lucky! Don't you remember our last neighbors?"
"Yes I do! They were so sweet and gentle. Their daughter was really nice also."
"You kidding, right? She was a monster! At the beginning she seemed to have a crush on me and became a stalker, then I don't know why she told her dad that I was the stalker and that in the middle of the night I walked in her room and forced her to… well that's not important. The point is that I don't care about what you said to that woman because I can say that you promised her or something that I would help her but I'm not, ok? I don't want to be stalked again!!"
"Ok, I'll make you some pancakes by the time you're back home ok?"
"Ok!" Taichi smiled at her mom, and run through the door to their new neighbor.
"Oh god, he is already 21 and I still need to make pancakes for him to make him do the things he is asked to." Said Taichis mom to herself and walked to the kitchen looking for flour. "Great! Now I need to go and buy some!" cried his mother sarcastically.
Mimi wakes up. "What? I'm not already there?" asked loud but
speaking to herself.
"No Miss Tachikawa. We'll arrive in Tokio in 30 minutes. But here!" the stewardess on the plane offered her a bar of chocolate and well ,Mimi was hungry and she never ate on the plane because she didn't like the food, so she accepted it.
"Thanks!" she said and smiled. 30 minutes more and I'll be back in Japan. Maybe I can see Yamato again! Oh it been so long… he should be 22 already. 4 years have passed since she saw him for the last time. They were just teenagers but now he should have change. His face, his hair, his body… everything should have changed on him! 'C'mon I want to see you again Yamato-kun!!' cried to herself and smiled while she was eating the chocolate bar.
"Hello? Someone here?" asked Taichi from the door. No one answered. He was going to go away when he heard a beautiful voice coming form inside the house.
"Yes? Can I help you?" asked the woman coming out of the kitchen. "Sorry I didn't answer before but it was that I was trying to put a box in there" showing with her finger the direction "and I just couldn't come before. I'm sorry" said the woman again looking at the boy who was standing at her house door. He was tall, taller than her. But anyway she wasn't tall at all. Messy hair, deep chocolates eyes, tanned skin, seems to be strong enough for his age maybe a bit stronger.
"Oh no, it's ok you were busy it's alright" said Taichi to the woman inside the house. 'Boy she's beautiful but she seems a bit older than me, maybe that's not so important to her and she will go out on a date with me' Taichi though.
"So… why are you here?" asked the woman.
"Oh yeah… I almost forgot… do you need help with the boxes or something? I mean it would be a pleasure to help a beautiful woman like you!" said Taichi in a flirting voice and she giggled.
"Yea… really I'm not kidding. Everybody knows that beautiful girls shouldn't work so hard with all this moving stuff" she giggled again.
"Thanks! It would be great. Oh, by the way I'm Tachikawa Kasumi."
"I'm Yagami Kamiya Taichi but called me just Tai."
"Well you can bring those boxes from there over here. With your help I'm surely will do before Mimi arrives with the other things!" and smiled to Taichi, in a way warmly but even a blind-man could noticed a bit of sadness in it.
TWO HOURS LATER….
"Yes! We finished. Thank you very much Taichi for your help. Do you want something to drink and perhaps a piece of chocolate cake?"
"It would be great Kas--"
RING RING
RING RING
"Sorry for that, please wait… moshi-moshi? Tachikawa Family, Kasumi is talking... oh honey! You're already here?"
'Great she has a boyfriend' said Taichi kind of bothered, to himself
"I though you were arriving in an hour. Can you maybe take a Taxi and come over here? Yes! No! I'm with my new neighbors' kid; he helped me with all the boxes. I'm sure you will like him. I think he is about your age."
'It's about my age? Her boyfriend is what? Like 21 years old? I though she was older! And what the heck did she mind with my neighbors' kid but if he is about my age she maybe would have a date with me if I show her" but Taichis thoughts were interrupted by Kasumis voice.
"So, hon… should I make you dinner? Oh great! Better that way! I'll wait for you ok? Love you! Bye." Then she hangs up.
She went to the kitchen smiling and quickly comes back with a glass with coke and a piece of chocolate cheesecake.
"Thanks!" said Taichi grabbing a piece of chocolate cheesecake and eating it.
"So, Taichi your mom told me that you're a great football player and you are studding at the Institute of sports and arts."
"Yea… That's right!"
"Oh you think maybe you could show m--" but she was cut off by him.
"Of course I'll show you the Institute and if you like I'll drive you tomorrow over there!"
Kasumi couldn't help it and started laughing. Taichi kept eating the piece the dessert Kasumi gave him but without understanding what was so funny about driving her to the Institute the next morning.
"I was not talking about me. I'm not 20 but thanks. I was wondering I you can walk or drive Mimi tomorrow to the Institute?" asked Kasumi.
"Pardon me but I don't get it… who is Mimi?" asked Taichi disconcerted.
"Oh? Your mother didn't tell you? She's my daughter and she will be joining you tomorrow at the Institute. So I though you might could…" but Taichi stood up shocked.
"Are you alright?" asked Ms. Tachikawa a little worried.
"Yea… sorry but I just remember that tomorrow I have to go somewhere before going to the Institute… I'm sorry but I can't drive your daughter tomorrow. It's late and I still have to talk to a friend. Sorry but I need to go. It was a pleasure to meet you. Sayonara."
Then as fast as he could he walked to the door and ran to his house. 'How stupid can I be? Of course she is not 20! She is married and with a daughter who is 20 years old. She is my mom's age!! For god sake, what the hell where you thinking TAICHI? Oh I'm the biggest idiot on earth! She has a daughter!! A daughter!! She is a mother, MOTHER!!' he ran up the stairs to his room "Tai, here are your pancakes!" said his mother but he didn't say anything and closed the door behind him. "Well, I guess these are mine now…"said Ms. Yagami loud enough he to heard her but didn't say anything again.
"MOM, I'M HOME!!" shouted Mimi as she walks through the open door.
"And the sushi is here, too!"
"Honey, I'm glad to see you again" then Ms. Tachikawa hugged her daughter tight.
"I'm starving, can we please eat?"
"Of course hon……" her mother replied.
Once at the dinning table
"I see you bought a house instead of an apartment like you said on the phone"
"yeah.. I couldn't resist once I saw this house I felt in love with it but actually I didn't bought it, I just rent it for a while until everything is fine again… you know with your fa-father…" her voice broke and she tried not to cry. Every time they talk about him, her mother couldn't resist the tentation the situation offered, to cried.
"So, mom something interesting happened today before I came?" mimi tried to change the subject.
"Yes, actually today I met our neighbors. Well only the mother and one of her kids. He is about your age. Hi's pretty handsome and nice too. I'm sure you'll be great friends. Maybe you fall in love and after 3 years get married!" said Ms. Tachikawa happily. It was weird how the humor of her mother could change so fast in so a short time. At least, every time the subject goes direction mimi and a guy, and a probability of a marriage in the future, forgetting her now really bad situation in her marriage, she was happy, at least it seems like.
"Mom, I'm not going to marry him. I don't even know him!"
"Oh Mimi but you will and you'll like him. I know because he flirted with me and I liked the way he did it! He was so nice!"
"He WHAT?!" asked Mimi with her jaw reaching the floor. She couldn't believe it
"Yes, just like you heard. He thought that I was 20 or something like that. He's very funny and sweet, also athletic, you two would be the perfect match!" with that she laughed and Mimi couldn't believe it.
"Are you serious?!" her mom nodded.
"And he knows that you're not 20 but 40 and that you have a daughter?" her mom nodded again.
"God he should be feeling like the greatest idiot on earth! Poor guy!" said Mimi in a sad voice before laughing and breaking into tears.
"Oh mom, how could you do it? You always make me laugh so hard!" said Mimi when she started to calm down.
Her mother giggled and smile.
But her smile had changed. Since her father and mother start with the entire stupid fighting thing, she didn't smile the way she used. Her smile was special, always happy and warm. It kept seem warm but now she could recognized the feeling of sadness in it. That made Mimi feels sad too. How she wanted that her parents work it out and got back together. Well they weren't divorced now, just separated. Something could happen that would bring them together, right?
After dinner, she kissed her mother on the cheek and went to her new room.
"G' Night!" said Mimi to her mother on the top of the stairs.
"Sweet dreams honey!" shouted Ms. Tachikawa from the kitchen.
Then at her room, Mimi changes her clothes and went to bed, after brushing her teeth.
'Tomorrow is going to be an interesting day' said Mimi to herself before falling asleep.
