*continues on from chapter 3*

"So, you still want to go on for that ice-cream?" I asked curiously. It was quite hard to understand Mimi exactly. She is great, but sometimes, she seems so weak and sensitive. And times she seems so strong and won't bend down that easily.

"Of course Ken! Did you think that little incident could have made me not wanting to go have ice-cream with you? Oh Ken!" She smiled and gave me a hug. I didn't know what it was for. But I hugged her back.

"Well, let's go then!" I smiled. She grabbed my hand and we headed towards the ice-cream parlor. I blushed when she grabbed my hand. But Mimi didn't seem to notice. So, I hurried along after her.

"So, Mimi. What flavour do you want?" I knew I shouldn't bring up the subject of "Yamato" It might make her feel bad.

"Hmmmmmm, Strawberry! As always." She gave me a big bright smile.

"Great. I'll have chocolate then." I returned her smile. Mimi is so gentle. So loving, so caring for others. But she just had to be broken apart.

"Two ice-cream cones please." I said to the ice-cream person. (A/N: I dunno ^^;)

"What flavours?" She asked.

"Strawberry and Chocolate please." I replied. The ice-cream person gladly scooped two big scoops for our ice-cream. I paid and handed the cone to Mimi.

"Here you go." I smiled, taking the first bite out of my ice-cream.

"Thank you Ken." She smiled. We sat down to eat, no one spoke. Until I broke the ice.

"So, how do you like it?" I asked.

"It's delicous." She answered. "As always! Creamealicous always have the BEST ice-cream in town!."

I smiled but didn't reply. It was true Creamalicious does have the best ice-creams. I took another bite.

Just like that, Mimi and I bought food, commented on how good it was. And hanged around the park. It was a magical afternoon. No of us spoke about *Yamato* Not one of us even remembered that he's still alive. He was the past.

*The NEXT morning. -Saturday-*

"Good morning Ken!" My mother peeked into my room.

"Good morning." I turned around by my computer and smiled.

"Oh good Ken. You're up. Would you like some breakfast? It's you favorite! Pancakes with strawberries." She smiled holding up a tray.

"Oh thank you. But I would prefer to eat in the kitchen." I walked towards her and held the tray to the kitchen.

She gave me a surprise look, but followed me into the kitchen.

"Enjoy Ken." She smiled and settled the tray down.

"Thanks." I replied her smile and dug into my breakfast. It was very desliciouse. Soon I was finished, I cleared out the plates and headed outside. I didn't really know where I was going, but I hope I get to see Mimi today. Man, I'm really obessessed.

I walked along the pathway in the park. The sun was shining brightly. And there were a lot more people in the park then usual. Then I saw Mimi. I must be really lucky to see her, I always do for some reason. But, she wasn't smiling this time.

"Are you okay?" I asked after I came up to her.

"Of course!" She wiped her eyes and looked at me. I gave her a puzzled look, was she crying? Did Yamato try to hurt her again? Let's hope not.....

"What's wrong?" I asked quietly.

"Oh Ken. It's nothing, just stuff...." She wiped her eyes and gave me a weak smile. I forced a smile back. I knew something was up.

"Well, want to get some bird seeds to feed the pigeons?" I asked, trying to cheer her up.

"Sure." She replied. She held my hand and walked towards the stand. I paid for the seeds, even though Mimi insisted on paying. (A/N: What a sweetie ^^)

We sat down on a bench near a big tree, the sunshine was really bright. And there was shade under the tree. I reached into the bag and pulled out a handful of seeds, threw them into the ground, and pigeons came fluttering, looking for their breakfast. I glanced at Mimi. She dully picked up some seeds and threw them.

I got worried, Mimi is never this gloomy, something must have had happened.

"Hey Mimi?" I said quietly. She didn't reply, she stared at the pigeons eating.

"Mimi?" I said a little louder.

"Huh?" She glanced at me, realizing she was blanked out.

"Oh, I'm sorry Ken." She smiled.

"Mimi?" I asked.

"Yes?"

"Tell me, what's wrong. Maybe I can be of a help. If I can't, it always feels good to let your feelings out." I sighed deeply and stared into her beautiful eyes.

"Okay." She replied.

"It was right after you left the park, I decided to walk around-

*Flashback Mimi's POV*

I walked around in the beautiful sunset. The sun is setting, and I'm just enjoying the beautiful day. Letting everything go. Letting myself be who I am. Then I spotted Yamato. I smiled to myself
and hoping that he was suffering. But he wasn't. There was someone with him, a girl. He kissed her slowly and looked up at me. He gasped in surprise. I gave her my little evil smile and walked away.

"Mimi? This is not what it seems." He pleaded.

"I had enough of being your secruity blanket. It's not fun. So I quit." I patted him on the shoulder and walked away with a huge grin. I dumped Yamato Ishida. God, that felt good.

"Mimi wait." Yamato chased after.

"I can't believe you cheated on Mimi Tachikawa. And used her! I quit too." The girl walked away.

Yamato clapsed and fell down. Even though he cheated on me so many times. He is still a friend. I ran back to him. But a cold hand slapped acorss my face. I stared at the hand that just slapped me. My lips whimpered. I will not cry this time. I pushed him, he fell backwards. And I ran as fast as I could. I could hear faint voices of Yamato calling to me apologizing.

"I'm Sorry Mimi! That wasn't me." Yamato shouted. I suppose that wasn't getting anywhere with me. "The devil made me do it."

That made me smile, that is how pathetic Yamato could get.

But, even though he's a pathetic loser. I still have really great memories together with him. That's because we've been together so long, that we're practilly one. Until things changed. He changed. I changed too, but my heart didn't. I always loved him no matter what. But he bended the rules......

~* Flashback Ends *~

I jumped up and threw my hands in the air. "WHAT? HE DID WHAT?"

"It's okay Ken." She calmed me down a bit. But the thought of Yamato's hand slapping across Mimi innocent face is just unbearable.

"I don't care. He's going to pay." I declared.

"No Ken. Don't. You'll get hurt too." She smiled at me, I could never resist that smile. I sat down.

"Oh okay." I pouted, he hurt Mimi. And he's getting away with it too.

Then I spotted Yamato walking too, in the park. By himself. Even though Mimi told me not to. I jumped up at the oppertunity.

"YOU! YAMATO ISHIDA!" I ran towards him. Mimi ran after me. Let's hope Yamato won't hit her again.

"Huh? Oh Ken." He smiled and waved. He looked dead, his eyes could barely open. His clothes were filthy. And his hair.....well let's not even go there.

"What happened to you?" I asked with a pitying tone.

"Oh nothin, I just didn't sleep at all. I kept thinking about Mimi." He said quietly. But, loud enough Mimi could hear.

"Yeah right." Mimi glared viciously. "Come on Ken. Let's go." She grabbed my hand and dragged me away.

"Wait Mimi! You don't understand!" He called after her.

"I understand perfectly. I'm stupid and you're not?" She snapped.

"No Mimi. I love you! I always have. And I still do. The other girl.....we're practicing for a play!" He looked back at her with hope.

"But you slapped me, and the girl didn't think it was a play." She replied quickly, hoping he won't catch up.

"Let's go Ken." She ran, and and I ran after.
