A/N : *sigh* I'm deeply sorry guys, for another long delay. But here it is, the next chapter, a little short though. I just realized that I'm such a bad author to make my readers wait like this and resulting no more than a short chapter. Sorry guys, looks like I'm not really good with a multi chapter story, but I promise that I'll finish this one. So thank you for following up until now and thanks for the Review, and please enjoy
DISCLAIMER : I don't own Digimon, but someday I'll own it, hahaha
"Wait up Tai!" he shouted while chasing up the man that's running in front of him.
The man stopped and turned around, now they are facing each other in the middle of the park.
"What do you want ?" he asked sternly
Yamato mentally winced with the bitter voice and the formalities Taichi used. "I need to talk to you, about … important things"
Tai crossed his arm "Really, and what would that be?"
"Look, I'm sorry about 'that incident' back then. And I want to explain it to you now" Yamato started slowly.
"I don't think an explanation is needed after all this time" Tai stated flatly.
"How can I explain it to you back then! You just went missing-"
"And whose fault do you think it was!" Tai shouted, losing his control.
"W-well .. that was…"
"That was what Yamato? You want to say that it was only some kind of sick joke! That it's okay to ruin all of my trust for you and breaking my heart by cheating with that-that bitch is all-"
The slapping sound can be heard through the empty park, the brunette reached his stinging cheek with a look of utter shock.
"Don't you dare call her that!" Yamato snapped at him, hearing the name he called Sora with.
Tai, still on the aftershock of the moment get a hold of himself and smiled bitterly "What? Am I wrong? Is it not right to call someone who cheated with your boyfriend a b-i-t-c-h?"

"Stop that! You don't know anything about her!" Yamato couldn't hold himself back anymore.
"Do you thing you know everything? What do you know? Who gives you the right to do this to me? You said that you loved me, but it's all fake! I know you don't love me, you love her, that's why you chose her over me." Tai shouted, the tears began to fall on his cheek.
"I LOVE YOU TAI!" desperate, Yamato shouted back, seeing Tai so broken like that. He never want it to become like this.
"Then WHY? WHY Yamato, why! Why did you do that, do you know how much it hurt for me. Do you know how much I suffered all this time because of what you have done! Do-" his next word was cut when Yamato suddenly hugged him. He kept crying hysterically while trying to break free from Yamato's embrace, meanwhile Yamato tighten his hold on him.
Tai kept crying on Yamato's chest "Why Yama.. why… Why am I still loving you after all this time?"
Yamato was very surprised to hear that. He thought that Tai would hate him, never did he think that Tai would still love him after all this time.
He placed his fingers under Tai's chin and tilted it up until they were staring at each other.
"Is that true Tai?" he asked breathless. A big burden lifted up off his shoulder, all the regret, the self-loathing, all the bad memories from his mistakes in the past seemed to left his mind after hearing Tai's confession.
Tai only nodded and rub his eyes abruptly.
Yamato smiled, a big smile. An expression of utter happiness being able to hold his dearest again, to know that Tai still love him. He looked at Tai again, especially at those pink lips that's begging to be ravished like they used to be. He leaned down, the brunette closed his eyes and leaned up. Their lips mashed together, the moment seemed so good, so unreal for Yamato, this is like a…

- Tai's POV-
"Nice job Tai" That's probably the sixth time I've heard it today. It was just one of our sparring session and as usual my team, I mean the team with me as a part of it won. You see, after winning the last match, our team seemed to become more enthusiastic on winning the tournament, so we had more practice to improve our skill before the next match.
Well, to tell you the truth, I'm not as enthusiastic as the rest of the team. Not that I doubted our ability or anything, but there's something more important than winning the tournament, for me at least. The thing is that in our last match, I met him again. He is Yamato Ishida, all this time I thought I could forget what he has done and move on. But he decided it's good to mess with me once more by showing in front of me out of nowhere. And indeed he succeeded, I couldn't stop thinking back to that time. the way he changed so much, in appearance, manners, and the auras surrounding him seemed so… mature.
He looked so different from how I remembered him to be. Although I couldn't remember much but the difference was impressive.
I sighed. All of this thinking really make me tired, mentally. And it has been affecting my play too. But I don't think anybody noticed.
"What's wrong Tai?" screw my opinion.
"What do you mean?" I asked Haru who's now sitting beside me in the locker room. The others were changing or having a shower.
"Don't play dumb with me. I know there's something wrong with you," Haru said, seemed unsatisfied with my answer. I hated it how he can easily read my emotion.
"There's nothing, really…" I sighed "Just got some things on my mind" I said simply, choosing not to tell the details.
"Would you tell me what is it?"
"It's not a big thing, just some small problems with people at home"
"You're lying Taichi, I know it. Firstly you haven't been contacting your family for years now so there can't be problems with people at home because there wasn't even people to begin with. Secondly, you wouldn't play like you just did if it's not a big problem."
"I played just fine today"
"I knew it, but as I know, the real Taichi doesn't play 'fine', he plays brilliant"
"Who do you think you are? That you know everything about me?" I snapped, it's rare that I used that kind of tone with Haru. Not waiting for an answer, I left him there and start changing not even bothering to take a shower. Not in the mood to, and I'm just not in the mood for the talk, and as I said, I was tired.
I went out and walked back to my apartment. The sky has turned orange-ish with the breeze slightly blowing my hair that's not as long as it used to be. Thinking back to the match before, I can't believe they aired it on the television. They said that it wouldn't be aired, now I felt so stupid for being deceived. If I knew it would be aired like that, I wouldn't want to play in that match.
Now I have to deal with the problem at hands, the past that I left behind now all coming back. If only he didn't cheat on me, that bastard, maybe now we would have a house on our own and live together happily ever after like in fairytale. It's all his fault, I didn't do anything wrong, I don't regret running and left everything behind. And anyway I have a good life now, at least I have a good carrier as a soccer player and some other side job, and I also have a lovely boy-… No, what am I thinking? I don't need any boyfriend, and I'm just happy as I am now.
Unconsciously I walked all the way to the park, guess I'll just spend some time here, besides I don't have anything to do at home. I walked to the deserted park, there's nobody here, no wonder it's getting a little late now. Or so I thought, there was another person there. It is a man, he is sitting on one of the swings. He is staring downward at his lap, hmm maybe there's something interesting down there. I smiled, a little amused with my own thought.
I decided to approach him, he doesn't seem to notice my presence. When I get closer, I couldn't believe what I saw "Shit," I sweared softly, hoping he wouldn't hear that. There sitting alone in the swing is none other than Yamato Ishida. I prepared to run away, took a step back and turn around but to my bad luck I tripped and fall to the ground on my butt, resulting in a loud thud "Ouch" I rubbed my sore back when "Taichi…?"
*TBC*
