That same day.....
Instead of going to his own apartment after he left the Yagami's, Takeru decided
to pay his big brother, Yamato, a visit. He walked cautiously up to his apartment and
knocked on the door.
Come on Matt, be home. I need some brotherly advice here, he thought, Hikari's
smiling face in his head.
The door opened up and an older version of Takeru appeared. "Hey TK!" Yamato
said, grinning at him, his azure eyes shining. "What brings you here?"
"A confusing life," he replied, looking at the ground.
Yamato looked at him carefully. "Something's bothering you, isn't it?" He waved
his hand over his eyes, which weren't exactly focused on his older brother. "You're doing that staring thing you do when you're upset," he observed. "Come on in." He held the door open for Takeru, and they both sat down on the couch in the living room.
"So, TK, what's wrong?" Yamato said.
"Um...." Takeru bit his lip, nervously. "Matt, when did you start
having....ummm....strong feelings about....a girl? Like, you know, strong feelings like
you'd want the girl to be...um...to be-uh- to go out with you?" he managed to sputter out.
Yamato raised his eyebrow in surprise. He shrugged. "When I was around eleven, maybe twelve....Around your age I guess," he replied, looking at his younger brother curiously. "Why?"
Takeru nervously licked his lips. "I-uh...I sorta like someone, I guess," he
muttered.
"Who?" Yamato asked, interested.
Takeru mumbled something that couldn't be heard even if Yamato's ear was right
by his mouth.
"Come on, tell me," Yamato said, frowning. "You need advice, don't you?"
"Okay, it's Hikari!" It just shot out from his mouth, and he immediately blushed.
"Well, I think I like like her, ya know? And I wanna ask her to the big dance next Friday, but the thing is, Dais likes her obviously, and I don't wanna hurt his feelings, but I really do like Hikari, you know, like like her in that way, but sometimes I think that she doesn't like me, coz I'm not exactly paying attention to her like Dais does, but that thing is really annoying to her, so maybe she does like me since we've been friends for so long what do you think, Yamato?????" he asked pleadingly. After all that blabbering, he didn't notice that he was actually on the floor by Yamato's feet, looking like he was really begging for advice.
Takeru cautiously got up from the floor and placed himself in his spot on the
couch again. Yamato looked at him and blinked, not saying anything. He smoothed his hair back with his hand before saying, "Call her up and ask her to the dance. She is your 'friend'", he did little quotes with his fingers, "after all. I wouldn't see why it would be wrong going to a dance with a 'friend'."
"All I gotta do is ask her before Daisuke does...." Takeru realized. "Matt, can I use
your phone?"
"Sure, go ahead," he replied.
Takeru got up, and dialed up the Yagami's number. He was surprised that his
hand was shaking. No need to worry, he thought as he waited for someone to pick up.
We'd just be going as friends....right?
"Hello, Yagami residence," Tai's voice rang out.
"Um, hi, Taichi. This is Takeru," he said. His hand that was on the phone was
still shaking. "Is...is Hikari there?"
"Nope, sorry," Tai replied. "She went out for a walk somewhere. Do you want
her to call you back?"
"Um, no, that's okay. I'll just see her at school tomorrow." Takeru was a little
disappointed and relieved at the same time. "Bye, Taichi."
"Bye TK. Cya later."
Click.
"Well?" Yamato asked, his face questioning.
"She wasn't there," TK said. He couldn't help feeling a little glum.
"Hey, that's okay." Yamato patted him on the shoulder. "Just ask her tomorrow."
"Right," Takeru said, trying to brighten up. "I guess I better go home now.
Mom's probably worried about me."
They both walked to the front door. "Just call me whenever you need me,"
Yamato said. "I'm much closer to you now that you moved to Odaiba. You can talk to
me about anything, remember that."
Takeru smiled. "Okay, thanks, Matt."
He left and walked to his apartment. He couldn't help but feel a little chill,
thinking about the next day. That maybe nothing will go as he planned.....
