Chapter Two
Mimi's Perspective
Love trio. That is the name I gave to describe the relationship between Tai, Matt and Sora. They looked so good together. Sora had been more like one of the guys when we were younger. I always thought I would get to date one of the cool guys on our team, like Tai or Matt. Especially because I was into fashion and shopping, and other "girly" things and Sora wasn't. But now, Sora is dating both of the coolest guys on our team and in the school. Oh well. I'm happy for my best friend.
I signed onto the Internet and saw Sora was online.
MissFlower111: Hey Sora!
Tennisgrl04: Hi Mimi.
MissFlower111: How r u?
Tennisgrl04: I don't know.
MissFlower111: What's wrong?
Tennisgrl04: Both Tai and Matt invited me to the dance.
MissFlower111: I sure wish I had ur problem. Who ya gonna pick?
Tennisgrl04: That's the problem. Who do I pick?
MissFlower111: Go with both of them.
Tennisgrl04: What?
MissFlower111: All three of u r always together neway.
Tennisgrl04: I suppose. I'll have to think about that. I'm a little tired. I think I'll sign off for now.
MissFlower111: Okay. G-night.
Tennisgrl04: Night.
I signed off after Sora did. Oh Sora. My dear best friend. I wish I had your problem. I can never seem to keep a guy. But, you are dating the two coolest guys in school and on our team. With Tai and Matt, Tai's strengths are Matt's weaknesses and vice-versa. I wonder if Sora knows how lucky she is to have two, wonderful boyfriends. If only I had her problem. I'd love for at least one steady boyfriend instead of several guys after me only for my looks and popularity and nothing ever coming out of it. No lasting relationships. Not so with Sora. Tai and Matt are both in love with her for who she is and it is lasting. Much better to have only one boyfriend. But having two good ones and neither of them getting angry, hurt or jealous, or picking fights when the other is on a date with the girl they love: there is something special about that. How I wish I had her problem.
Tai's Perspective
An old memory came back to me. It was from my younger days before our adventures in the digital world.
Sora and I were only nine. I had liked her ever since I first met her. She was different from all the other girls in a special way and we both shared our love of soccer. She made some of the guys on our soccer team look like beginners, was stronger than all the other girls and really fit in with the boys. She came into class one day, looking upset and on the verge of tears. I stood up quickly and rushed over to her, knocking over the chair I had been sitting in.
"Sora, what's wrong?"
"Stupid father-daughter day. My dad isn't going to be around. I'll either miss it or be the only girl there without my dad."
"Sora, some girls are in the same boat as you. Girls whose fathers are dead."
"But my dad isn't dead. That's what makes me different."
"Also special," I told her, quietly.
Sora looked at me.
"What did you say?"
My eyes darted around, nervously, and I felt uncomfortable.
"Nothing, nothing. So, where is your dad?"
"Scotland, I think. Dad is never around and mama doesn't love me. She loves her flowers more."
I tried to comfort her.
"Tai, stop it. I'm her own flesh and blood. I'll live much longer and can do more things than her silly flowers. Why doesn't she love me? Why?"
I'm glad Sora isn't going through that anymore. I hated to see her suffer.
A couple days before the dance, Sora and I took a walk by the harbour, when the sun was setting. We were holding hands. Sora rested her head against my shoulder. I smiled and felt wonderful.
"You're so beautiful," I told her.
"Really? You think so?"
"For sure. You have natural beauty. That's one of the many things I love about you."
Sora looked happy and relaxed. She lifted her head a little later.
"Tai?"
"Yes?"
"This dance we're going to..."
I hope she hasn't changed her mind.
"It looks like both you and Matt will be taking me."
I was stunned but not surprised and kind of expected it. I didn't know what to think. I kind of wanted to be with Sora only, but I knew being in the love trio made things different for us.
"What does Matt think of this?"
"He never said."
"Does he know?"
"I don't know. He might."
It does make sense if both Matt and I took Sora. I guess we could take turns during the slow dances.
"What do you want, Sora? Do you want to go with both of us or just one of us?"
"Could we try both? I'm interested to see what that would be like. I don't want either of you to be hurt, either, and we are an inseparable love trio."
"Yeah, we could try it. The carnival is also coming up soon. Would you like to go to that when it comes?"
"Yes. But let's just focus on the dance for now."
"Of course," I smiled.
The sunset was beautiful. Sora's hair shimmered and looked pretty. We had a short kiss under the sunset and later went to a restaurant. I had fish and chips and Sora had french onion soup. Both of us had iced tea. It was wonderful. Here I was, with the girl of my dreams, my one true love. At the moment, it seemed like Sora and I were the only ones in the world having the time of our lives. There would be more wonderful times ahead as well. I was sure of that.
