Author's Note: This story is based from Digimon Adventure 02 Drama CD, Tegami. I created this story in hope that this might help to explain something, which was not there in the drama CD, especially for Sorato's fans. Below is the summary of the drama CD, in case if any of you didn't know about it. Feel free to skip it if you already knew the story.

Drama CD Summary: The Drama CD tells us about Yamato, who received a casette tape from an unknown girl, inside, she said to him that she'll undergo a surgery, and if it failed, she might be blind afterwards. Yamato felt irritated because he couldn't do anything for the girl, he wanted to support her, but he didn't know what to do. Yamato and Gabumon have ever visited the girl a couple of times, the girl seemed to understand Yamato quite well, and Gabumon even ever teased Yamato by saying that the girl was cute... After going to the sea with Gabumon and meeting various people, Yamato finally realized something, and decided to write a song, called Tobira (meaning "Door"), to the girl. In the end of the story, the girl sent Yamato another tape, saying that her operation was a success and that she wanted to see the sea where he's got the inspiration for the song.

This Drama CD might end up unsuitable Sorato fans, because Yamato cared, and wrote a song to an unknown girl, though I view it as "that's Yamato for you, with his crest of friendship". I think he's the type who can't sit still after he learned of others' trouble. Also, we all knew, in the end of the anime, Yamato and Sora got married, so I believe this girl didn't have any romantic relationship with Yamato. In the Drama CD, Sora wasn't even mentioned, but I believe that they're in a relationship around this time, so I made this story with Sora's point of view, also as a complement of the Drama CD (of course, just within my lack of creativity brain). This is my first fic in this fandom, so please go easy on me, and I hope you all enjoyed this story.

Chapter 1. Determination of Support

"You'll come tomorrow, right? Oh, okay then, bye."

*beep*

A brunette, wearing an uniform of Odaiba Middle School, parted his cell from his right ear, he flipped his cell off and sighed wearily as he shook his head. A girl was standing at his right side, she, too, was wearing the female uniform of the same middle school. Her hair and eyes were of auburn in color and her eyebrows were furrowed together, creating a worried expression on her face.

"So... What did he say, Taichi?" Sora asked, still with her worried expression written all over her face.

"You know him. He keeps on saying that it's nothing..." the brunette answered while throwing another sigh off his lungs.

"But... There's something, right? Is it... about her?" the girl asked, her expression started to change from worry to sorrow.

"I guess so... Even though when I asked him about it, he said that it's not about her... But well, we know him better than he thought. He tends to go somewhere alone when something irritates him, to solve his own problems."

"Yeah..." The auburn-haired girl said, with a very weak voice, which was almost unheard by human's ears.

"Sora, don't worry too much. I kind of get the idea in your head. He wouldn't do that to you, after all, you're his girlfriend. You mean a lot to him, you know?" The chosen children of courage said, as he put one of his hand on his best friend's shoulder.

"Y-yeah... I believe in him... I know he won't do that kind of thing... But... He didn't even tell me anything about it... I-I can't help of feeling uneasy about this... Maybe he thought that it's better for me if I don't know, that he didn't want to burden me with his problems... But... I want to be able to help him, I want to help him out of his troubles, I want to know what irritates him right now... I really want to help him, just like how he helped me back then!" Sora said desperately.

As she said those words, memories of the past flowed in her mind, back when they're still eleven years old, in the digital world. There was a time when she was feeling desperate, when she felt a big burden on her shoulders, when she felt that she was ready to sink in the sea of darkness inside of herself. But, just when she felt that way, he came to her rescue, saying that she didn't need to do what she didn't want to, lightening the burden of her heart. At that time, she saw him as a light in the midst of the sea of darkness around her, extending his arms to her, along with another friend of her, Jyou. Still, his words were the one which started to convince her, the one which lightened her heart. Since the beginning of their adventure in the digital world together, she felt that they have a similar way of thinking, which made them support each other, unconsciously. She'd always been trying to help everyone out, but she felt that she hasn't done anything for him, the one she cherish most in her life now, the one who's actually the true answer of her own crest, the crest of love.

"You know, I think you really meant a lot to him. You've helped him a lot, too, without you, yourself, even realize it. I think you got him right in at a point, he didn't want to tell you, because he didn't want you to get involved with his problems. That's actually his way of showing his care. He never wanted anyone to get involved with his problems, even I need to force him a little to spill it out to me, and I bet even Gabumon has never earned the information from him easily, too." The brunette answered, trying to shape his lips to form a smile to ensure one of his best friend, who's standing in front of him.

"Still... he tends to keep everything to himself... He never really said anything to me... I-I understand that he didn't want to burden me... But...but..." The girl, unable to put anymore words in her sentence, focused her eyes to the ground, and shook her head slowly.

Seeing his friend's uneasiness, the brunette decided to give his friend a little bit of time to think to herself, and try to support and ensure her of his best friend, the one who's at the sea in the time being, with a statement.

"You know him, and I know him, too. He's sensitive towards another people's pain and problems, just like you are. And both of us know that he's been trough a lot of those, which makes him like how he is now. Now, I believe that he only wanted to help her, to support her, like how you've always been to us, to him. You'd do the same thing if you're in his place too, right? The old Yamato would never go that far for strangers and, believe me, it was your influence on him that drives him into this. Just put a little more faith in him, he just don't realize that his care to others, which was derived from you, would make you felt jealous, especially since he is giving it to a girl right now. Taichi said, his voice tone changed in the last part, from serious, to teasing.

"Y-yeah... Wait! I-I... I'm not jealous or anything!" stammered the auburn-haired girl.

"Yeah, yeah... I know..." the leader said, with a huge grin on his face when he saw the girl's flushed cheeks. "Well, just give him some more time, I'm sure that everything will be alright, after all, Gabumon is taking care of him right now."

"Y-yeah... Thanks, Taichi..." The redhead answered softly, a weak smile bloomed on her lips.

"No problem, Sora. Oh! Shoot! It's almost time for soccer club's practice! I'll see you again, Sora!"

After the brunette finished his sentence, he threw her a smile and waved to her, then ran towards the soccer field. The girl smiled a little and waved her right hand in response. After Taichi was out of her sight, the redhead sighed. Deep down, she believes in Yamato with all her heart, but still, who won't feel uneasy if her boyfriend has been giving his attention to another girl? She wouldn't feel this bad if he, himself, told her about it, but to make things even worse, the blonde didn't tell her anything, but she knew that something was wrong. She didn't want to force it out of him, but she can't help herself of feeling uneasy about this. She knows that he is that type of person, but still...

"Ugh... This is getting nowhere... Calm down Sora, calm down..."

Just when the auburn-haired girl threw off another sigh, an attempt to calm herself, suddenly, someone's voice broke the silence around her.

"Sora... I think Taichi was right..." A pink colored bird said to her from her right side.

"! Piyomon! What are you doing here? Since when have you been here?" Sora asked her partner, startled by her sudden appearance.

"Actually, I've been here when you talked to Taichi. I'm a little worried about you, since I remember that you don't have any practice today, but you're not home yet by this time, so..."

"Oh... Thank you, Piyomon..." Sora said softly, as she smiled sincerely to her partner digimon.

"You're welcome, Sora! But, really, I totally agree with Taichi... Yamato just wanted to help her, nothing more than that. His actions this time were based on your influence, too. You might not know anything about this, but Gabumon ever told me that Yamato started to care more about others around him since... well... since you two got close..." the pink-feathered bird said, with a bit of hesitation before saying the last part. Curious of her partner's reaction, the pink-feathered bird took a glance at the girl. To her delight, she saw her partner's straight-determined, yet soft gaze from her auburn orbs, her lips formed a very soft smile.

"I know. I believe in him, I always do." Sora said firmly, as if she had decided something after her long, deep thought. "I'll... see him... tonight. I can't stand still and do nothing when he's facing a problem, I don't even have any time to grieve about this... I'll... support him to help her, too..."

"Ng! That's our Sora!" The pink-feathered bird chirped happily when she found out her partner's renewed determination. "You know, Sora, that heart of yours is what makes everyone like you so much!"

"Thank you, Piyomon! Okay, shall we go home?" The redhead asked as she extended her arms towards her partner.

"Sure! Hmm? Why're you extending your arms like that, Sora?" Piyomon asked, as she tilted her head slightly.

"Why do you ask? You'll need to pretend to be a doll, of course, we don't want to cause any panic around here, right?" The auburn-haired girl answered lightly, while tilting her head with the same manner as her partner digimon.

"Ugh... Not again... I'm not allowed to move or talk, right? But, well, being carried around by Sora is nice, too!" chirped Piyomon lightly.

"Good girl." The girl smiled happily, as her hearts burden has been resolved. Piyomon hopped into her arms, and together, they went home, while deep in Sora's heart, she thought to herself.

"I'll see him... tonight."
