C4

The weekend came and went. Tai and Sora spent most of the time together. They were discussing what they were doing after graduation. Sora was accepted into any and every college in the area. But she told Tai that wherever he went, she would go too. Now that they were finally together, she didn't want to be apart.
Soon it was Monday. And Tai and Sora were walking hand in hand through the halls of school.
It was an uneventful day, and soon they were walking home. Kari was walking with them.
"So are you guys going to the big senior party on Friday night?" She asked.
"I don't know?" Tai said. "Would you like to go?" he asked the girl leaning on his shoulder.
"Sure, but that means I have to get a dress." She sighed. "I hate dresses."
"You don't need a dress, you look just as beautiful in jeans." Tai said holding her tightly.
"Sora, I'll go to the mall and help you." Kari suggested.
"You will? Thanks Kari."
"Let's go now!" Kari said jumping up and down excitedly. She pulled Sora out of Tai's arms and the two girls ran ahead. They waved at Tai and were off giggling as they went towards the mall. Tai shrugged his shoulders and walked the rest of the way home, alone and deep in thought.
"This one!" Kari shouted. "It's your size and it's pretty." Sora came over to her; her hands were full of dresses.
"You are worse than Mimi!" Sora sighed. She had almost every dress in the store in her hands. Everything from a tight miniskirt to a full-skirted ball dress.
"Kari! Calm down. It's a stupid dance, not a glamorous ball." She set all the dresses on a chair. And she instantly walked over to a cloths rack. And pulled out a long black silk dress.
"It's perfect." Kari said, "Try it on." Sora went into the dressing rooms.
"So what do you think?" Sora's figure was outlined by the shining silk dress. It was strapless and the bodes was fashioned to fit Sora's figure perfectly, almost like a corset type top.
"It then has these gloves." Sora said as she put one on. The dress was simple, but gorgeous on Sora.
"You look great." Kari was excited again. "Tai is going to go ga ga over you!"
"Really? That would be kind of funny." Sora twirled around; there was a little pluff at the bottom of the dress so it whirled with her. Then Sora returned to the dressing rooms and came out back in her school uniform.
The girl's mission was complete. The perfect dress had been found. They spent the rest of the afternoon at the mall and went to Sora's house for supper. Kari was obviously thrilled for the dance. It turned out that her and TK were going to be there as waiters and helpers, to make the party fun for the seniors. All the siblings of the senior class were helping out.
"Ya it should be fun. But two months from now everyone's life will change." Sora started.
"Oh don't worry about it. Tai would never leave you or change. In fact he'll probably still be the same immature kid at 50!" Kari said.
"That would be interesting to see." Sora laughed at the thought.
"So where did you decide to go to college?"
"Um, I was accepted at a lot of places, but I'm not sure yet. I'm kinda waiting for Tai to decide what he's going to do."
"You got that tennis scholarship at the University of Tokyo."
"Yes, but that seems so far away and besides, it's a hard place to get into. I kind of wanted to stay close to Tai."
"He'll probably stay home next year."
"I hope not." Sora sighed. "He could do so much, if he applied himself."
"It's Tai! That would take a miracle." Kari laughed. "Wow, it's 10:30 already!"
"Do you want me to walk you home? Otherwise you could spend the night."
"Ok, I think I'll just stay here. May I use your phone?"
"Yes, you better tell your parents where you are." Kari got up to use the phone, while Sora went to get the final 'ok' with her mom. "It's ok with my mom." She said as she reentered the room.
"Hey Sora. It's ok w/ my mom too." Kari said as she held the phone with on hand. "But Tai wants to talk to you."
Sora walked to the phone. "Hello." She said in a seductive voice.
"Why hello." Tai replied in his deepest voice. Sora laughed. "So how are you?" he was talking in his normal voice.
"Um, fine. How are you?" she said sweetly.
"I just wanted to say good night. And I'll be dreaming of you till tomorrow." Sora blushed at Tai's sudden adorability.
"Me too. I love you."
"I love you."
"Sora hurry up!" Kari yelled. "We should tell stories and stuff like at those slumber parties."
"Well I better go. I'll see you tomorrow Tai." She hung up the phone.
