Sora spent most of the weekend catching up on her homework and talking with Mimi. Tai didn't mind, he was just happy Sora was back to normal, for the most part. She still had nightmares and for that reason Tai never left her side. He basically lived with Sora at the hospital now. But all that would change tomorrow, he thought. She gets to leave and return home. The doctors were surprised she had recovered from the physical wounds so quickly. She could walk almost perfectly now. Tai began to cry. Sora woke up after a stray tear dropped on her face.
"Tai?" She rolled over slowly. He was standing over her. "What's wrong?" She put her hand on his face. Wiping the tears away.
"I was just thinking that I… almost lost you."
"You're so sweet."
"And well we graduate in a week, I don't want to leave you." She pulled him close to her chest. It was her turn to comfort him.
"Don't worry about it." She told him. She thought awhile. In three months she was going to school in Tokyo. But Tai was on a waiting list. He wouldn't know if he was accepted till graduation.
Sora's mom entered the room with a change of cloths for Sora.
"Do you want to g home sweetie?" Her mom asked.
"Do I ever." Tai had stopped crying and he helped her out of bed. She walked by herself to the bathroom to change. She came out looking like good old Sora.
After they said their good byes to the nurses they had come to know, they were on their way back to Sora's apartment.
As she crossed the threshold of the apartment, she breathed deeply.
"I've missed this place." Sora sighed and sat down on the couch. She seemed relaxed. Suddenly she noticed a noise coming form her room. She was about to get up when all of her friends jumped out and yelled "SURPRISE!"
"Welcome back!" Kari and the others yelled. Joe, Izzy, TK, Davis, Yolei, Ken, Mimi, Cody, Kari and Matt where there.
"You guys are great." She fought back tears.
"Let's party!" Davis yelled as he turned on some music and ran to the kitchen for snacks.
Everyone wanted to talk to Sora. They were so glad she was better. They sat there for hours talking about funny memories and new developments.
As it got later into the evening people started to leave. And soon it was just Tai and Sora. They sat on the couch watching TV. Tai was laying on the couch and Sora was resting on top of him, her head on his chest.
"Will you be ok tonight?" Tai asked her as he looked at the clock. It was near 12:30 and Tai had school tomorrow.
"I'll be fine, you should get some sleep in your own bed."
"Are you sure?"
"yes, you've been so great Tai. How can I ever make it up to you?"
"You'd do the same for me." They both sat up. He kissed her gently. She got up and walked to her room.
"Good night mom." She yelled. Tai tucked her in and kissed her once more.
"I'll be back at 3:05 on the dot." He promised. "Goodnight."
He left and turned off the light. Tai walked back home slowly. His mind was a jumble of questions. 'I was going to purpose on graduation, but should I now?' What ifs… and why's… plagued him. 'Oh well.' Tai thought. He knew they'd be together forever.
