Just to let you know, the prologue is the thing
that's actually happening... the first diary entries in 'Goodbye...' is just
Sora reading her diary after she fights with Tai. Oh and the Sorato
happens in the diary, not in real life. Get me? And I know this
chapter is a little short but please review.

Dear Diary
Chapter Two
7:45 pm, Friday night
Dear Diary,
It's been a week since Tai
left... one long, lonely week. I know everyone misses him. I know
T.K and Davis miss Kari to. The worst thing is... I keep expecting Tai to
still be here. I'm always thinking I'll see him around the corner or
during third period but I don't. I have to stop myself every afternoon
from passing by the soccer field to watch soccer practice before heading over to
the tennis courts.
I feel so helpless diary... he
called me once this week but that wasn't enough. I'm writing him three
letters a day. I know he's writing letters to, except they haven't arrived
yet. You know how slow the mail is. So we usually use e-mail but the
phone bills get awfully high.
I know what you're thinking
diary. Why can't he come to the Digital World? Well it's
closed again that's why. I just want to him to be here...
Tai's talked with our other
friends to. I know they miss him as well. All the DD's tried to
comfort me but it didn't work. I know Tai's had a good long talk with Matt
about me. I think he asked Matt to take care of me because Matt's his best
friend. How do I know? Well, Matt's being hanging around
lately. He's been really supportive...
"So, Matt," I said,
spooning some ice-cream into my mouth. "How do you feel about all
these girls chasing you anyway? Isn't that what you wanted when you
started the band?" I joked.
Matt and I had gone out for
ice-cream. It was almost like a date but he's just looking after me like
Tai asked.
"No," Matt said laughing
loudly.
I could sense every girl in the
place staring at him. Who can blame them? He was looking really good
tonight. Stop it Sora, I thought to myself. This is Matt
your thinking about. Your buddy. Tai's best friend.
"Well," I said.
"Why did you start the band then?" It was a lame question... I
know. I already knew why but what else was I supposed to say after
thinking... you know.
Matt looked straight at my
eyes. "Because I love music," he said seriously. "And
I want to be able to express it to everyone."
I nodded. I knew exactly what
he meant.
Diary, I felt that Matt and I had
grown closer tonight but were just friends. I mean, Tai's only been gone
for a week... what am I thinking? How can I even write this stuff about
Matt Ishida? But still.. I was startled by the way we said goodbye...
"Goodnight Sora," Matt
said. We were standing in front of my apartment after we'd gone for
ice-cream. I told him I could go inside by myself but he insisted on
walking me.
"Good night, Matt," I
replied, awkwardly. Matt put his hand on my arm. I felt myself
blush. What were we supposed to do now? Kiss on the cheek?
Shake hands? Finally, I gave him a little hug. "See you at
school Matt," I said.
"See you," Matt said,
waving and walking back into his car.
I followed him with my eyes. I
glanced down at my arm and noticed goose bumps at where Matt's hand had touched
my skin... I shivered. Don't even think about it Sora, I thought
letting myself inside.
