A/n- okay, second chapter to The Tai Therapy! Enjoy!

Troubles

"Fine fine, here." Koushirou sighed. "I'll tell you a method. We take your 'therapy routine' for a test. Each and every one of us. And whoever is satisfied with the result will keep coming."

"Is the test free?" Taichi asked cautiously.

"No duh." Hikari rolled her eyes, "No one would want to come if you had to pay!"

"I suppose you're right." Taichi sighed.

~*~

"So," Taichi cleared his throat "professionally", "you, Mr. Ishida, claims to have problems with the members of your band?"

Yamato rolled his eyes, "Shut up Taichi. And yes, I do have problems. Yukio, the drummer, insists that he be the lead singer, but I'm the lead singer! And Kin, the keyboard player, wants to let violins into the band!"

"Violins in a rock band?" Taichi raised his eyebrow.

Yamato nodded, "That's what I said, wasn't it?"

"Sheeeesh, what a lame-o. Well, how are things going with Sora?" Taichi said nastily.

Yamato's face grew red, "W-what do you mean?"

"Are you guys getting along fine or are you having arguments?"

"Fine. And I don't think you should use the therapist excuse to probe into other people's private lives."

"Who me? Probe? Nuh-uh, you got the wrong guy here." Taichi smiled innocently.

~*~

Daisuke buried his face in his hands, mumbling, "Okay, I have love problems. Big deal."

Taichi immediately felt how this second goggle boy was feeling. "I can relate," he sighed. "Sora dissed me for Yama too."

Daisuke snapped his head up, "Who said I'm having love problems?"

"You just did." Taichi pointed out.

"Okay okay, so maybe I did. Anyway, just cuz Tekeru—"

"Takeru." Taichi corrected.

"I stand corrected." Daisuke said thru gritted teeth. "Takeru. So, anyway, I saw with my own eyes Hikari staring at Tekeru, whatever, during math class and when he played basketball and made a shot, she practically swooned."

Taichi tapped his pencil against his notepad. "I see. So your crush, my sister, is delibarately making you jealous—"

"YES!" Daisuke leapt out of his seat, fuming. "She went to New York with Tekeru just to make me freakin JEALOUS!"

Taichi raised an eyebrow, "She doesn't like it when you blow your top."

"Okay okay, fine." Daisuke took a deep breath and sat down.

"We'll meet again the day after tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock if you're interested. Ten cents a hour." Taichi said.

"Yeah yeah sure sure." Daisuke mumbled.

~*~

Taichi sipped his lemonade, "Good afternoon Mrs. Ishida, it was nice of you to drop in."

Sora narrowed her eyes at him, "Shaddup about that Mrs. Ishida stuff before I whack you, lemonade and all."

"It was just a joke, Sora." Taichi explained, putting down his cup. "Anyway, I don't think you need therapy, do you?"

"Well," Sora hesitated. "I do."

"Say what?" Taichi looked surprised.

Sora smiled mischievously, "You see, Yama's so popular at school that some of his fans wont leave me alone. I know a particularly interesting girl named Jun Motomiya who would be thrilled to meet a 'cute guy', and I think I know the just the man." She looked pointedly into Taichi's eyes.

Taichi opened his mouth to say something back, but the minute he made eye contact with Sora, his mouth was left hanging open, unhinged. Somewhere in the pools of red that were Sora's eyes were the person that Taichi loved so much, the person who "dumped" Taichi for his best friend, the person who was Sora.

"Um, Taichi?" Sora leaned forward and closed his mouth.

Taichi blinked.

~*~

Taichi was taking an afternoon break when Daisuke ran up to his stand, wheezing for breath, "T-Taichi-sama ::wheeze:: you-you gotta see ::gasp:: Chi-Chibimon a-and ::wheeze:: Upamon!"

Taichi swallowed his ham sandwich, "Why?"

"They're devouring Miyako's family's thrift store's food aisle!"

Taichi wiped his mouth with his sleeve, "Well since you called me Taichi-sama and all, I guess I'll help. But I still don't know why you're asking me instead of Sora or somebody."

"Just hurry up."

~*~

"Miya? Why are the sodas suddenly disappearing? I know you have friends that need food but you can't possibly expect us to provide everything especially when we're running low of supplies!" Mrs. Inoue looked suspiciously at Miyako, who was smiling nervously, standing next to Iori, Ken, Takeru, and Hikari. (They were forming a line to block the food aisle which was completely cleaned out)

"Uh-ah, Miz Inoue…I can explain." Ken started nervously. "You see, some people from our class needed food for our class outing and so Miya-chan generously volunteered—" Ken was stopped by a sudden death glare from Miyako.

"Miya, you know perfectly well we told you not to volunteer for anymore all-you-can-eats from the class!" Mrs. Inoue glowered at Miyako.

Upamon's head poked out from behind Iori's ankles, "Is she mad?"

Iori's eyes widened and he did a quick kick flip so Upamon was kicked back in behind the line.

Poromon fluttered up to Miyako's shoulder as he whispered, "Is your mom mad, Miya?"

Miyako laughed nervously and pushed her In-Training Digimon back down before her mother saw it.

Chibimon whimpered softly from inside Hikari's backpack, "Where's Daisuke? I want him to come! Waiiii! Where's Daisuke?!?!"

Hikari froze.

Mrs. Inoue looked at Hikari, "Is something wrong, dear?"

Hikari giggled nervously, "Uh, no, Mrs. Inoue. I, uh, just want Daisuke to come, yeah, that's it. I miss Daisuke, I want him to come, yeah!"

"You serious, Hikari-chan?" Daisuke grinned goofily as he burst in the store with Taichi.

Hikari shot a death glare.

"Um, Mrs. Inoue, I'm sure I can explain about Miya-chan's food problem. Let's talk about this in da back, shall we?" Taichi turned on the boyish charm (if he had any. Let's just say that if anyone had boyish charm Yama would be the one, quoting my friend Joyce.) and pushed Mrs. Inoue to the back of her store.

"Hey that went pretty well." Hikari said, shrugging.

"Daisuke!" Chibimon cried blissfully, leaping into the boy's arms.

"Oh, so it was you missin me, not Hikari." Daisuke said disappointedly.

~*~

Taichi folded his arms, a glint of madness in his eyes as his said, "Alright, pay up."

Miyako, Ken, Iori, Takeru, Daisuke, and Hikari all tossed in some coins.

"Spank you, spank you all." Taichi gathered up his payment and counted them out. Nearly all were pennies. "Forty cents?? Heck, I can't even get a soda at 7-Eleven from this!" Taichi moaned.

"It's all we have." Hikari explained, turning her pockets inside-out.

~* Yagami residence, 7:00PM *~

The phone rang and Taichi ran to get it. It was Sora.

"Hello?" he said.

"Helllllo, loverboy! Have I got the date—and therapy patient for you!" Sora grinned at the other end.

"It better not be Jun." Taichi spat.

"Oh, um, no…it's…Junie! Yeah, Junie!"

"Great trick, too bad it doesn't work."

"Well she's really nice (once you get to know her anyways), and I think she's really psyched to meet you."

"Yeah yeah whatever, as long as she's a customer. I'll meet her tomorrow at 12 noon sharp, at King's Coffee Place."

"Deal."

~*~

Jun Motomiya arrived at King's Coffee Place at the exact time Taichi did. She reserved a spot for two next to the tropical fish tank.

Taichi reserved a place for two right next to Jun's table.

They sat there for about 20 minutes before both standing up at the same time and angrily muttering, "He/she stood me up!"

"Eh?" they stared at each other.

"Are you—" they started together.

"You go first." Jun said.

"No, you." Taichi replied.

"No, you."

"You."

"You."

"You."

"You."

"YOU."

"YOU."

"YOU."

"YOU."

"Okay okay. Are you Jun?" Taichi asked.

"Yep, and are you Taichi?" Jun answered.

"Yup."

They spent 5 minutes staring at each other again.

"I AM GONNA KILL SORA!" they both exclaimed at the same time.

"Eh?" they stared at each other again.

~*~

"The quote quote blind quote quote date didn't go off too well, Sora." Taichi complained into the phone.

"No surprise, you two have possibly the same personality, and that's not good in love." Sora scoffed into the phone.

A/n- finally, chapter two is complete! Now, wait for ch. 3, okie?

Later dayz
