A Taiora love story

It has been seven years since his return from the Digital World which was also the time he ran away from home to escape the girl of his dreams who also rejected his feelings for her back then. He decided it was time to return home and try to make things with everyone he left those seven years ago.

It was the middle of the night as he sat upon the hood of his yellow orange 1995 Nissan Skyline GTR that had the side of Wargreymon's head on each door as the Crest of Courage emblem was on the hood of the car, looking over the Odaiba area from a nearby mountain cliff. "Well, I guess it's been long enough. If I'm lucky maybe the others have forgotten me, especially her." He said as he pulled a small device from his pocket staring at it as he slid it back into his pocket going around and getting it his car speeding off to his old home.

"Kari! Time for breakfast," said an older, long brunette hair headed woman from the kitchen.

"Alright, mom," said a young, short brunette hair headed girl as she came from her room walking into the kitchen.

"So, Kari, do you have any plans for today?"

"Yeah, I was going to go hang out with T.K., today remember."

"Oh, that's right I forgot you two had a date."

"Mom, we aren't going on a…" All of a sudden there was a loud knock on the door of the apartment as both of the females looked at the door.

"Oh my, if that T.K., already?" her mother said jokingly with a slight giggle.

"Mom!" she said flustered getting up and heading to the door hoping it was T.K. so, she would be able to leave. She twisted the doorknob opening the door slowly not looking to see who it was. "Hello…..TAI!" she yelled as her eyes widened in surprised as she saw her older brother standing in the doorway of the apartment.

"Hey, Kari is mom home?" he asked covering his ear from her scream.

All she could do was nodded almost in tears of joy to see her older brother that ran away seven years ago as she invited him in stepping out the doorway so he could come in.

He would walk into the apartment slowly as his mother came into the hallway to see if Kari was kidding. "Hey mom." He said as he smiled slightly rubbing the back of his head with one hand.

All his mother could do was cry as she approached her run away son as she slapped him. "Taichi Yagami, how dare you run away from us without a word." she said angrily.

He held the side of his face that his mother just slapped. "I'm sorry, mom…." was all he could say before she hugged him tightly.

"Never leave us like that again, Taichi, do you understand me?" asked his mother she cried on his shoulder.

"Don't worry mom. I came to try and make up for running away." He said as he hugged his mother and released her and hugged Kari who was crying like a baby again.

"I'll go get your room made up." His mother told him releasing him and walking into a room as Tai looked over to Kari.

"Why?" Was all she could muster to say to her older brother as she wiped her tears away as she shut the front door and sniffed.

"I came to make….."

"No, why did you leave us?" she looked to her older brother still teary eyed.

"I messed up Kari that's why I left. I messed up with everyone in the Digital World and the others all hate me what I did." He said looking at the door as he walked into the living room.

"How did you mess up Tai?" she asked walking behind him to the living room.

"I told her how I felt about her, just to find out that her and my best friend, were just starting to about two weeks prior to me telling her this." He told his little sister sitting back onto the couch.

"Oh? So, that's the entire reason you left?" She asked a little curious.

"No, the rest of the reason is because I started to flip out on her and the others." He said smacking himself in the face.

Kari then hugged her brother and walked to her room to change for T.K.

Tai leaned back on the couch as he heard a knock on the door. He sighed getting up and walking over to the door opening it.

There stood a blonde haired boy wearing a hat as he rubbed the back of his head. "I-is Kari home?" he asked nervously not remembering Tai at all.

"Yeah just come on in and I will tell her you're here." Tai told the hat wearing blonde boy as he walked to Kari's room knocking on the door.

Kari jumped from the knock as she finished changing into a pink dress opening her door to see her older brother. "Yes?" she asked looking at him.

"Your date is here." He said walking into the living room and sitting onto the couch, as Kari followed him to meet with T.K.

"Hey Kari," T.K. said happily as he hugged her softly blushing lightly.

"Hey T.K.," Kari said returning the hug blushing.

Tai coughed to let them know he was still there as he stared at the blonde boy.

"Oh, shut up will you." Kari said as she headed out the door with T.K. in hand as she shut the door behind them.

He sat there on the couch looking out the window to see it was sunny with a few clouds here and there. "I might go to the field and play some soccer." He said to himself standing up, heading towards the door. "I'm going for a walk mom. I'll be back after dinner I promise." He yelled from the door heading out it.

"Alright Tai….What do you mean you will be back after dinner?" She said slightly annoyed as she heard the door shut.

Tai would walk down the stairs to where he parked his car getting a black and white ball from the trunk as he started walking towards the park he use to play soccer in. "Maybe I won't see her there." He said looking at his feet as he walked.
