Call of destiny: Sora's choice
Sora here when we last left the story matt let his hormones get the best of him and me. I let loose a secret , i'm good with the drums, and big shocker, The university of Notre Dame in America wants me to play tennis for them and pat for me to go to school!Big decision people! What to do? What to do? Well read and find out you yutz!
I sat on the foot of my bed staring at my dresser and mirror. I had been this way for the past two hours. This was going to be a big change, living in a different country, not sure what the future may bring. I could go on to play tennis professionally, or come back to Japan and find a career or if I meet a guy in the states and get married...............what made me think of that? I have Matt, HE"S my boyfriend we are a couple.......But I can't take him with me. Is it really fair to him or me to keep this relations ship if I go. What do I want to do? What should I do? I went to my dresser and saw, I had many pictures on the mirror, some were of me and Matt, some of me in the digidestined group. And there was one of my father and me, in fact the only picture I have on record of him. He is always away on bisnuess and is never home much when I was only three. I guess my mom took it hard. She never talked about it. The only reason this picture even exists is I found it long
after a fire destroyed all pictures we ever had.I wondered what would he say to me if he were here. I know what he would say. I think he would want me to go. Ever since I saw the recruiter and even since I found about about this offer, sure I was scared, scared spitless. But through out it all I was comfortable with it; I could feel it was right. I heard a knock at my door. I went to open it. It was Izzy.
"Hey Sora I'm here to install that video card you got!" He said cheerfully. I looked at him with glazen eyes,"Um sure c'mon in" Izzy got to work on my terminal as I lay on my bed staring at the ceiling. Every once in a while I could feel his eyes peel off the computer and focus on me, I didn't react much. After 20 minuets of an uncomfortable silence he finally broke" Sora is something the matter?" I closed my eye," if there's anyone I can talk to about this it's him........." I thought about what I wanted to say and said it." Izzy , to day I was approached by a man, he's a scout from a collage in America, they want to give me a full scholarship" He took a sip of his soda." Kewl Sora! What collage?"
"Notre Dame..."
He spit out his soda forcibly, and started to gag."*koff!-Koff!* Zora!!!"He squawked" Notre Dame!!!! Koff!-Koff!" I squatted by him and patted his back. He cleared his throat and took a deep breath" What are you going to do?" My face fell, "I `m not sure...part of me wants to and part of me doesn't. " Izzy smiled " Well there are pros and cons. It will be tough but it will be quite an experience, Notre Dame is a great school. And plus you will have three friends living in the states with you!"
I looked at him with a puzzled look".Huh? Mimi I know lives in New York, Joe I think will continue his medical training in Chicago, but that's two!" Izzy smiled at me." I've just been accepted to attend M.I.T In massachusets!, you're the first to know!" My mind was floored" My God! Izzy!, Congragulations!" I said as I hugged him." When do you go?" He smiled" I'll go a few weeks after graduation." I was amazed I always knew he was smart, Out of the Digidestined he was the brains of our group, whenever we encountered a problem in the digital world, he was the first to solve it.
"It's a big step Sora, it won't be easy, but it will be worth it."I can't tell you what to do, but in my honest opinion , you'd be crazy to pass it up. " Just then a knock came to my door. And it opened to reveal my mother. She had that look in her eyes." Mom,"I gulped " Did you close early? " And from behind her appeared mr.scoggins carrying in his arm a huge bouquet of flowers. The kind that my mom charges a pretty penny for.
"Izzy, It's time for you to leave .My daughter and I have to talk......." Izzy gathered his tools" I'll call you later...."He whispered and as quickly left my room.
From there we all took a seat in our living room. My mom prepared tea for us. My mother seated herself and spoke first." Mr.Scoggins came into the store to buy some flowers for his daughter, he saw you picture on the wall, and he explained who he was and why he came to Japan." Now I need to know Sora, What do you want to do?" I tried to gulp but my throat was dry, here I thought I had plenty of time to make this decision but, now lo and behold I was going to have to decide. I wringed my hands and shifted in my seat. The my mother did something I will never forget. She took my hand and looked me square in the eye.
"Sora, ever since I saw you leave to go back to the digital world, I knew this day would come. I knew there was a time in which an opportunity like this would present itself. You're my daughter and I love you very much, but this path has been set before you and this is a choice you're going to have to make. I just want you to know what ever you decide I will support you no matter what." Tears all of a sudden filled my eyes. In all this time I felt my mother and I could never be close I was wrong. For the first time in my entire life I felt she understood my feelings, even though I didn't. Mr. Scoggins jumped in.
"Sora ,It was a total coincidence that I walked into your mother's flower shop.I had no idea until I saw she was your mother, well I jumped at the opportunity to tell her about the offer and also I wanted to buy my daughter some flowers. "He said pointing to the massive bouquet. "When he actually bought my most expensive set ,I knew he was serious!" My mom added. Mr.Scoggins gave a nervous chuckle" She wouldn't talk to me any other way!"
I looked at all the paperwork spread on the table as he discussed the entire offer. It was a full scholarship, and I would play tennis for the junior varsity team, depending how well I played would determine how soon I would get to play Varsity. The scholarship would cover all my tuition costs, books, room, everything. Mr.scoggins even would work out a deal in which if my mom wanted to come visit the school would cover travel costs too, Apparently they really wanted me that bad . I looked at the map. The school was located in Notre Dame, Indiana. Indiana was right in between Illinois and New York, where Joe and Mimi would be. I looked at my mom, She knew, She knew I would be getting the best education I could get, and I would be doing it by playing tennis something I'm really good at. Four years and an education, here in Japan I might kill myself to get into a good school, it was really that tough to get in, but at this school I could learn what I want at a relaxed pace.
Mr.scoggins looked at me," Well Sora? What do you say?"
I looked at him; this was an offer I couldn't refuse. "Yes Mr.scoggins I want to be a fighting iris!"
"Irish..."He corrected. He chuckled a bit" I'm happy Sora! You'll be a fine addition to our school! Let me fax some paperwork to my people and I'll come back tomorrow with a letter of intent for you to sign.
Shortly after mr.scoggins left, my mom hugged me tightly" Oh Sora I'm so proud of you! " I held her too," Mom! I love you too!" But as I held her suddenly a thought entered my min d, a thought that could potentially be a danger to all this...
"Oh no, What about Matt........."
To be concluded.........
Next Time: I finally tell matt my plans and it won't be pretty! This will be the biggest test of our friendship, can our friendship survive this? This will be the toughest task I will ever do. Destiny is calling and I have to answer, but will Tai understand? Well read the next part and find out you Yutz!
