"Hey, Tai? It's me, Kari," said Kari's voice shakily as she spoke into the phone, "Can I meet you for coffee about three this afternoon. We need to talk about something."

"Umm, sure Kari, you can always talk with me," replied Tai with uncertainty tracing his voice.

"Great, I'll see you then," she replied, not even waiting for Tai to say goodbye.

"Okay then," said Tai into the dead receiver.


"So now Kari what's up?" asked Tai a few hours later. He was still dressed in his suit and tie from work and it was only because he was a senior member was he able to get out early like this. Kari was dressed in a sundress and a wide brimmed hat that all but hid her face in it's shadow

"Well Tai, I need to ask you something. And I need your most honest opinion, okay?" said Kari looking down at her cup with her hands in her lap.

"Come on Kari, what's the big deal," said Tai leaning forward.

Reaching up quietly Kari showed Tai her right hand. On her ring finger there was a small silver ring with a small yet beautifully crafted sapphire. Tai looked at it stunned for a moment, then looked at his sister, and then looked at the ring again. Finally he managed to open his mouth and stutter out, "Kari, is this from whom I think it's from?"

"Yeah," said Kari with a small smile.

"And is it for what I think it is?" asked Tai.

"It is," replied back Kari solemnly.

"And what did you tell him?"

"What do you think I told him?" asked Kari as her face broke into a huge grin.

Rising quickly from the table, Tai snatched his sister up in a giant hug and said, "You and T.K. are getting married!"

"Yep, can you believe it?" said Kari hugging her brother back.

"So why did you need to see me? You could have come over with mom to my place and told me there," said Tai sitting back down in his chair while still wearing his hundred watt smile.

"Because I haven't told mom yet," replied Kari seriously.

"Why not?" asked Tai.

"Because, well, since Dad died I don't know if I would have had his blessing which is kind of why I came to talk with you," admitted Kari looking down.

"So, in simpler words, your asking me for my blessing," said Tai looking straight at his sister. She nodded slowly. "Well you have it Kari, you have my blessing."

"Thank you Tai!" yelled out Kari hugging her brother again. As she hugged him tightly Tai stood up and said to her, "Come on let's go tell mom!"


The Digital World
"Kari!" yelled out Gatomon as Kari passed through the gate. It had been a long time since she had last been to the digital world and Gatomon cherished these few visits.

"Gatomon!" yelled back Kari grabbing her into a tight hug.

"What's been going on?" asked Gatomon as the two began to walk through the forest.

"Well Gatomon there's something I need to tell you," said Kari looking at her friend, "T.K. and I getting married!"

"You too!" screamed back Gatomon to the surprise of Kari, "So are Patomon and I!"

"You're kidding!" exclaimed Kari but a quick look of her told her that Gatomon was telling the truth, "When did he propose to you?"

"Two nights ago. We had digivolved to Angemon and Angewomon and were flying around on patrol. We stopped on a cliff and he seemed really stiff. When I asked him what was wrong he handed me a little box. And this was what was in it!"

Gatomon turned around and showed her a long golden ring attached to her tail. Kari gasped in surprise. It was the tail ring that Gatomon had lost years before.

"What did he say?" asked Kari quizzically.

"He just sort of managed to stammer out, 'Will you marry me' and I said 'yes'."

"All right!" yelled out Kari giving her friend another hug.


"This is great!" said Kari silently as she lay in her bed looking up at the ceiling. Without warning she suddenly felt overcome by a sense of dread. Sitting up she reached into her drawer and pulled out a small photo album. Opening it quietly she stared at the first picture in it. It was a picture of her, T.K. and Andromon together. It seemed to be a bizarre combination: young, beautiful, Kari and T.K., and the pieced together gray metal that was Andromon between them.

Turning the page was a collection of photos of T.K. There was one of him with Patomon perched on his head, and here was one of him in his basketball jersey.

On each of the following pages she had put in pictures of each of the digidestined and their digimon: her friends. Here was Joe with Gomamon; she quietly laughed about the time that Joe had told her that Gomamon had fleas. On the next page was Cody; she looked at the picture of him kneeling sweaty beside his kendo armor with Oopamon perched on his shoulder.

"But what if my fear comes true?" asked Kari silently, "What if me and T.K. aren't really right for each other?"

Turning to the last page she found the picture of her and Gatomon together which T.K. had taken. Taking the photo out of its mounting she turned it over and read the small poem on the back. Smiling, she put the picture back in, set the photo album on the drawer and turned off the light.

This is what the poem read:

I do not know

What tomorrow may bring

But at least I know

That you will be with me
