(Author's note: Sorry if the last chapter was twisted and complicated but I
promise to keep this chapter more dramatic, steady and romantic. This is my
last chapter and I guess it will be really long. I was thinking of making
this chapter separately but then I'm lost of introductions and thoughts.
I'm putting and busting all my thinking and imagination in this chapter. I
want to thank the following people for reviewing my story: Rukato Fan,
DigiDestined of Courage, Derrick, ML for Gryffindor, The Biggest Dreamer,
Epyon-Zero, Uh...A Gundam that likes Rukato, Nate0130, Manila Boy, and
Haxar. Thanks guys for reviewing, without you my story won't continue. More
announcement at the end. Enjoy!)

By: crystal-eidolon, but call me Dylan.
Dylan: This is the last chapter and it's been fun. So sit back and relax.
Rika: More like setback and relack.
Dylan: Whatever. I'm really sorry for not updating this story as early as expected. I guess I got lazy and all, good thing I still manage to finish!
Takato: You were slacking off as usual.
Dylan: Wrong! I was exploring the site more, so I got little excited.
Rika: How excited? Did you read the - - - - -s?
Dylan: You green minded! I'm too young for that.
Takato: Well then, what were you doing?
Dylan: I was reviewing the stories in the digimon as well as the stories in other animes.
Rika: I must admit that the stories of the other writers are better than yours.
Dylan: You didn't peek on the story again did you?
Takato: Why would we read a story as boring as your story, which will end in world domination.
Dylan: You read the story!
Takato: Well it's all Rika's idea.
Rika: Hehe...We couldn't deny it for it was just lying around.
Dylan sat down and took out the script.
Dylan: Good thing this is just a draft to fool you. I knew that you couldn't resist.
Rika: If that is the draft, where's the real one?
Dylan: It is playing right now.
Takato: Do you think we're that stupid to be fooled?
Dylan: Well...
Rika: Don't worry Takato. I brought my D-ark.
Dylan: Here we go again.
Voice of Dylan: I don't own Digimon, Queen of my Heart and the quotes so don't sue.

Chapter Four,
We Don't Say Goodbye
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
The sun rise for a beautiful day. It stop raining when Takato woke up. Takato stretched his hands and stood up. He opened the curtains and saw some birds chirping at his window.
"This is going to be a long day," he whispered to himself.
Takato went to the shower. After the shower, he wore his usual clothes. He first watched the morning shows at his room. While watching television, his mother knocks on the door saying breakfast is ready. Takato went downstairs and straight to the dinning room. He sat and ready to eat when his dad said...
"Takato, Rika has been calling you all day at the phone yesterday."
"You really made a jerk act to Rika yesterday. What did you do now?" His mom added.
"W-what! I didn't do anything! I'm innocent!" Takato said over acting.
"Takato you're over reacting. What did you do anyway?" His dad tease.
"Well...Nothing to tell the truth." Takato said guiltily.
"C'mon, tell us." His mom said with a sigh.
A ring at the telephone up stairs caught Mr. Matsuda's attention. He quickly went to the phone and picks it up.
"Look who's in the telephone, its Rika!" His dad said holding the phone.
Takato quickly grabs the phone and went to his room (it's a wireless phone).
-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
Takato: Hello? Takato speaking.
Rika: Hello Goggle head.
Takato: Oh hi Rika. What's up?
Rika: I just called to remind you that it's 2:00.
Takato: Ok. Uh, Rika it's the fifth time you called. Are you Ok?
Rika: I'm Ok, I'm just worry about you... if it's Ok with you on what we're going to do (Too many "Ok" don't you think).
Takato: I'm sure fine. Hey, what are friends for?
Rika: I'm totally nervous.
Takato: No need to be nervous. You'll pass it off for sure. You have me remember.
Rika: Yeah, I have you.
Takato: Hope it all go well.
Rika: Me too. Bye...Takato.
Takato: Bye.
-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
Takato went down stairs again to continue eating when his dad said,
"Wonderful conversation?"
"Of coarse it's a wonderful conversation Honey. Takato's face will say it." His mom sniggered.
"Uh...eh" Takato said blushing.
-----At Nonaka's Residence-----
Rika put the phone back. She went to the dinning room to eat breakfast. Her mom was sitting and said,
"Did you call your boyfriend again? It's the fifth time you called him."
"For the last time mom, he is not my BOYFRIEND!" Rika shouted then she sat.
"Ok, ok, Takato. So what important thing did you said to him this time?" Her mom added.
"Same as ever." Rika said.
"Your planning to make him a boyfriend so you could drop out the pageant. Isn't that right?" Her mom said like she read her mind.
"Why would I do that?" Rika said quivering.
"Honey its all right, just act your way in and they won't notice...if they're dunce." Her mom said alarming Rika.
"Mom!" Rika shouted.
"Don't worry sweetie, you're just going to sign a form." Her mom said think.
"I just wish I haven't went to that school." Rika complaint.
-----At Henry Side-----
Henry was walking again in the mini-mall. He thought he would see Jeri again. It was no luck he couldn't find her. All he can see were people. Henry was still walking pass the crowd. Then he noticed somewhat familiar. The two were exchanging cards with one another. They were Kazu and Kenta.
"Hey Kazu and Kenta, Whassup" Henry said approaching them.
"Oh hi Henry! We just had a super cool card shopping" Kazu said showing his knew cards.
"You two are the same as usual." Henry said with calmness.
"Let me turn over the question to you, What's up?" Kenta said with an evil smirk.
"Are you hanging around with someone else again?" Kazu said making Henry sweat drop.
"Huh? Just going here to the mall," Henry said sweat dropping.
"Henry we know that you have a disease on Jeri." Kazu said tapping Henry's shoulder.
"Why would you say that?"(Normal answer if someone asks you that guilty question) Henry said trembling.
"Henry admit it" Kazu said making Henry more sweat dropping.
"Wait a minute I just got here guys. Don't pick on me." Henry said with a fright.
"Guilty as charge." Kenta said.
"Uh...eh...Who told you!" Henry said then he covered his mouth.
"You mean it's really true?" Kenta asked.
"You idiot! Why did you say that?!" Henry shouted to himself.
"No! It's just a slip of the tongue." Henry said protecting.
"Henry we won't go anywhere if you just won't tell us," Kazu said with breath.
"Stop it guys!" Henry shouted and trembled more.
"Henry, just tell the truth" Kenta added some more.
"Ok I admit it, I l-li...Jeri and I are just friends!" Henry shouted.
"I knew that you're just friends" Kazu said giving Henry a questionable face.
"Huh?" Henry questioned.
"We thought that you're maturing to a teenager. What a relief." Kenta said with ease.
Henry just stood there with a shock of surprise then Kazu started again,
"If you and Jeri are just friends you should tell her quick before she goes."
"Yeah." Henry replied.
Something told Kenta to another direction. When Kenta look on another direction, he saw Jeri with Ryo in a table together.
"Hey guys isn't that Jeri?" Kenta said pointing at her.
"That's Jeri but she couldn't be with Ryo." Kazu answer.
"Let's just see what will happen" Henry said peeking on the two.
Ryo and Jeri were having a conversation. Jeri was happily nodding and Ryo was maybe telling a joke. The three could tell that they are having fun. Then suddenly, Ryo's expression changed to a seriously type.
Ryo looked down and blushed. Then he finally said something. Henry read Ryo's lips and it says,
"Jeri I think...no I'm sure of what I'm feeling. The feeling that, I'm in love with you. I really wish that I could be your boyfriend."
What just Ryo said made him extremely blushing. Good thing Henry was the only one to read his lips. Then Kazu snorted,
"What did he say?"
"I don't know" Henry said in a low voice.
Henry looked at Jeri's reaction. Jeri blushed too upon hearing what Ryo said. Jeri was about to give her reaction when a crowd of people covers the view of the three.
"What happened?" Kenta said with a sigh.
"Henry, did you get what he said?" Kazu questioned.
"I haven't" Henry said faintly.
"I think he got what Ryo said." Kenta whispered to Kazu.
"Get that thing off your mind Henry. We don't know for sure what Ryo said. What did Ryo said anyway?" Kazu said making Henry feel worse than ever.
"Kazu your not helping" Kenta whispered again to Kazu.
"Uh Henry, I know a good pizza place we could chill out." Kazu said energizing Henry a bit.
"Sure guys." Henry replied.
They went inside a pizza place. The three took a table then ordered. Kenta and Kazu were talking about things and stuff, while Henry was just eating his pizza. The pizza was tasteless for Henry after what just happened. Kazu and Kenta knew that what Ryo said was bad news for Henry. The two insisted that Henry should go along and let them pay the bill.
Henry went out of the place. Henry's only thought was, why would Jeri like Ryo.
"I hope that Jeri gave a big fat "NO" to Ryo. He's such a jerk to tell her what he feels and asks her to be his girlfriend. If I see that Ryo guy again I'll make him suffer. I wish Jeri won't be enslave by Digimon jerk." Henry thought enraged.
"What's this the green monster of jealousy just came out of me. I'm actually jealous of Digimon jerk "(BTW, Henry was referring to Ryo as the Digimon jerk instead of a Digimon King. Sorry if I did that to Ryo. I just made it to make some jealousy reaction). Henry said confusedly.
"That means I really like Jeri." Henry thought enlightening up.
"Oh Jeri, I just wish you were here" Henry wished.
Henry was smiling slightly while picturing Jeri. He still walked while soundlessly daydreaming. Henry didn't notice that someone walking in front of him not looking forward too. Then they crash into each other. When Henry look forward, it was Jeri who bumped him.
"Ahhh! Jeri...sorry if I bumped you." Henry said with a little tension.
"No. Henry I'm the one who should say sorry. I wasn't looking forward." Jeri said while standing.
"It's Ok with me. So what brings you here?" Henry said standing up too.
"I was just going to the photo store to get ready some film." Jeri said.
"Oh..." Henry replied.
"So want to come with me again?" Jeri invited.
"Of coarse why not! I mean sure." Henry said gladly accepting.
"That's what you said yesterday." Jeri said with a small laugh.
"Uh...eh" Henry said blushing.
The two walked to the photo shop to get some film. Henry was careful not to say anything of what was Jeri doing before they met today. He knew he could trigger bad news or maybe, just maybe good news. That's a chance Henry doesn't have any guts to take. At the photo shop they bought a film then Jeri started,
"Good thing I still met you Henry."
"Yeah. I'm really glad to see you before tonight." Henry responded.
"We really need to have a break before that mushy good bye stuff?" Jeri whimpered.
"Why not! I do want to get some fun before you leave." Henry accepted.
"I heard that there is a Gamesville in this mall. Wanna go check it out? Jeri said with interest.
"It'll be fun for sure." Henry accepted again delightly.
"Great! now let's go" Jeri said while walking.
The two went inside the Gamesville. They played the arcades. After the arcade they tested their skills in air hockey. Then Henry insisted,
"Want to ride the roller coaster?"
"Sure." Jeri answered.
They went to the line and rode the coaster. When the ride goes, Henry closed his eyes and tightens the grip on the handle because he was quite scared of the ride. Then Jeri beam delightfully,
"Henry I didn't know that you're afraid of the roller coaster."
"Well it all started when I was in the 4th grade. The coaster stops at the top with me in front. It's scary to think of it again." Henry said while recalling his memories.
"Well, I'm sorry to make you remember your worst fear." Jeri apologized.
"It's Ok. We have to face our own fears one day." Henry said.
"Henry I envy you because you're really confident." Jeri thought.
"Man I sound really brave out there." Henry thought exhaling.
Then the ride started. After the ride Henry survived. They went into an ice- cream restaurant. The two relaxed and ordered. Then Jeri stated the conversation,
"I really had a great time Henry. Kinda think of it, we were going out for the last three days."
"Yeah I guess your right. But don't worry I'm all ready to go, if you invite me tomorrow." Henry said, then he put an invisible sock in his mouth.
"Um...Henry I'm going to leave this night." Jeri lament.
"I'm sorry to remind you." Henry apologized.
"Don't worry about it. I still have some film. Want to take some shots with me?" Jeri insisted.
Henry nods.
The two walked around the mall taking picture with each other in wonderful places. It was the greatest day for Henry and maybe the last. Henry spent the most of his time enjoying Jeri's wonderful smiles. She look so mature and beautiful. Henry thought of why would Jeri pick him instead of the other more handsome boys with muscular body between a brianiac like him. Henry didn't care 'cause watching Jeri so happy makes him lighthearted. But then Jeri will go to another country soon and Henry haven't said anything...anything about his feelings.
It was almost 1:00 when Henry insisted that Jeri should go home and get ready. Jeri nodded. They walked out of the mall. Jeri said that Henry should get going now but then Henry request firmly that he should walked her home. On the way to Jeri's home, Jeri sighed
"Oh shucks I forgot to develop the film."
"Oh yeah we still have the film." Henry sighed too.
"I guess I should go back to develop the film." Jeri gasped.
"Jeri it's not necessary to do that. I'll do it for you." Henry persisted.
"Are you sure?" Jeri inquired.
"Sure, I'll just call you when the film is developed." Henry said elated.
"Henry you're the best!" Jeri said while hugging him tightly with a little quick kiss on his cheek and giving the camera.
Henry blushed unlimitedly crimson red. Henry tried to hide his extraordinary blush while Jeri was waving good bye at him. When Jeri was out Henry's sight, Henry made a loud "YES".
Henry quickly rushed to the photo shop to develop the film. He dashed to his house (actually apartment but then its still his home). He sprinted straight to his room, closing the door. He jump to his bed then started to daydream. Henry just lied on his bed thinking that Jeri had just kissed him.
"Yes! She must really like me because she kissed me. 1000 points for me. Ryo I knew that you're a loser from the start. But then what did she tell Ryo..."
-----Back at Rika and Takato-----
Takato went over to Rika's house to fetch her. Takato felt every step on the way to her house was making him close to something unexpected. Who knows what would happen? He bumped to some people and telling him that to look at the way he's going but Takato didn't mind 'cause something more important was in his mind. And what's in Takato's mind was Rika. Then finally Takato arrive at her house quite trembling though. Takato rang the bell and Rika answered it.
"Oh hi Takato"
"Hi Rika, ready to go?" Takato asserted.
"Oh sure. Bye Grandma!" Rika said while closing the door and going to the street.
"You seemed pretty relaxed," Takato said following Rika.
"You don't know how nervous I am." Rika responded.
"It's alright Rika, you don't need to be nervous." Takato encouraged Rika.
"You don't know what I'm going to" Rika muttered.
The two went to the bus stop. They rode a lifeless bus straight to the rehearsing studio. Rika breathe freely after they got out of that boredom bus. They were going inside when Rika pulled Takato's hand. She drags Takato at the side of the building and talked,
"Uh Takato, I lied to you and still your giving me a favor. I think that's not right." Rika said in a low voice.
"Rika I don't care if you lied to me, I just want to make you happy that's all. It hurt sometimes but I still want to make you a favor cause you're my friend." Takato reasoned.
"But still then." Rika was unconvinced
"Don't worry about it." Takato said to cheer her.
"Takato I still haven't said sorry whole-hearted yet to you. That is what been disturbing me" Rika thought.
The two went inside the studio. They were in a large place colored in white. There were silences against the walls of the studio for there seems to be peace in the place. Thinking about the tranquility of the place made Rika annoyed because Rika was upset and the setting just fussed her. Rika remembered that her mom said that they should go to the counter to ask how could they drop out off the pageant. The two went to the counter to ask (Actually customer service area). The clerk was dressed in white blouse and a gray skirt greeted them,
"How may I help you?"
"I'm a contestant from the pageant that will be held this week and I was just gonna disapprove myself." Rika explained.
"Oh one of those second thinking people, Eh? Just go straight up the 3rd floor and proceed to the resigning room." The counter said with a smile.
The two went in front the elevator. Takato was about to push the button when the elevator door opened. The two went inside the elevator. Rika push the 3rd floor button. Then finally the door closed.
The two was out of sight of the clerk when she received a message from her fax. The clerk's eyes widen when she read the message. She was about to stop the two but they're already gone. The clerk whispered to herself,
"Oh well, I guess they'll find out about it when they get there."
They finally arrive at the third floor. The two came out of the elevator. Takato came out first then Rika followed. Takato then asked,
"Where is the resigning room anyway?"
"Um...let's see." Rika said examining a map of the 3rd floor in a wall.
"There it is." Rika said while pointing on the room in the map.
"Oh so its to our left and again, left to the third room." Takato said to make their direction clearer.
They both walked to where the room was...in silence. They ended up in front of a white door marked as the resigning room.
"Takato this is the place isn't?" Rika questioned faintly.
"Yeah I think this is the place." Takato said with quite a tremble.
Takato was the one to open the door. Takato and Rika went in and Takato closed the door. The room was painted white with bright bulbs on top of it. There was a metal table in the middle, two chairs was beside it and one chair at the opposite side which was occupied by a young lady. The young lady was about 26 years old and dressed up in white. The lady finally said,
"Oh you must be Rika and Takato. Rika, your mother called me earlier and said that you're going to be here."
"Um...yeah I'm Rika" Rika replied.
"Here have seat. By the way I'm Chiharu," Chiharu said.
Takato was almost going to take his seat when Rika stopped him.
"Takato wait!"
"What is it?"
"Takato what are you doing?! You and I both know that this is wrong. Why do you keep pushing yourself? Why?!" Rika said while tears were falling out of her violet eyes.
"Rika please..."
"Takato, I finally realize that I would more or less go thru this rather than hurting you..." Rika said with her tears still flowing.
Takato went closer to Rika. He hugged her warmly. Then said,
"Rika I done this only for you..."
"Huh?" Rika questioned while her tears were slowing down.
"I've would have done everything possible just to solve your problems even though it means my feelings." Takato said hugging Rika tighter.
"Takato, I'm really sorry for lying to you, I mean it..." Rika said hugging Takato too.
"Rika, I know..." Takato said in a soft voice while Rika pulled out a little from the hug and said,
"Takato, I love you."
What Takato was going to say changed Rika's life forever,
"I love you too." Takato said while quite blushing.
"I love you with all my heart." Takato said then hugged her again, pulling her again to his soft warm body.
"Takato, I'm sorry." Rika said then hugged Takato too.
They look at each other's eyes then kiss passionately. All the pain and suffering was ended in that faithful moment. It lasted forever and ended so soon. It may be the just one ordinary day for some people, but for both of them it's the day that they've find their loving heart's desire.
Romance filled the room by a minute when it both came to them that they're still on the resigning room. For the last minute after the kiss they just look at each other's eyes saying only one thing, "I love you". Takato and Rika slowly turned their heads facing Chiharu.
They saw Chiharu crying non-stop holding a wet cloth. She then wiped her tears and said,
"That was the most * sniff * wonderful romance scene I ever saw. Your mom was right you two are the best of the best. Seeing that makes me put you automatically in the job. You're in!"
"HUH?!, what the?" Rika questioned.
"What about the pageant?" Takato followed the question.
"Didn't Ms. Nonaka told you that the pageant was canceled." Chiharu said.
"What! She didn't said anything." Rika asked.
"Ok let me explain. For the last few days the female contestant showed up with their boyfriend, well actually hired boyfriends. Only few were left of the contestants, so we decided to cancel it." Chiharu explained.
"So what room are we in?" Takato inquired.
"This is now the registration for the 2k2 Unit contest in category of dramatics."
"So you mean we're at a registration room?" Takato asked.
"Yep and you two are the main star." Chiharu answered.
"Did mom now anything about this?" Rika questioned.
"Yeah she knew every detail." Chiharu responded.
"MOM!!!!" Rika shouted.
-----Three Hours Later-----
"Finally I got out of that!" Rika said while going out of the rehearsing studio.
"Yeah I'm so glad to breathe again." Takato said while going out of the building too.
"Now all I want is to go home and yell at mom!" Rika said furiously.
The two walk home together until Rika broke the silence,
"Nice acting Takato."
"You too." Takato answered.
"I can't believe that I did my part of the acting in front of you." Rika blushed.
"It's so embarrassing." Rika added.
-----Flash Back: Last night's phone call at Takato's room-----
Rika: Hello? Can I speak with Takato?
Takato: Takato speaking.
Rika: Um Takato it's me Rika. I was quarreled by my conscience that something might go wrong tomorrow.
Takato: Oh...
Rika: Takato are Ok?
Takato: Yeah.
Rika: Um...I was wondering, Could you give me an advice for tomorrow?
Takato: Your getting an advice of the expert faker.
Rika: So what's the great faker's advice to pull it off tomorrow?
Takato: I suggest we create a stunt.
Rika: What stunt is that?
Takato: This just an advice but if you don't like it, don't kill me.
Rika: Why would your advice make me really mad? It's not like a roman---
Takato: Your right.
Rika: What!!!!!!!
Takato: Hey just an advice.
Rika: It maybe the most craziest stunt I would ever perform, but I'll do it just to go out of that girly pageant.
Takato: Your really determined.
Rika: So speak up our line.
Takato: Ok, I just had a wonderful scene.
Rika: Tell me.
*Takato finished telling Rika the script *
Rika: Are you insane!?
Takato: Hey it's for your own good.
Rika: But if we do it, make sure that don't tell anyone about it or don't even enjoy a little bit of it!!!!
Takato: Ok, Ok I got it.
Rika: Don't count anything in repay!
Takato: Why?
Rika: I know you'll have enough tomorrow.
Takato: Eh?
Rika: Any complains?
Takato: Dang I just have a great thing for you.
Rika: What's that?
Takato: I won't tell but if you give me a chance, I could show you.
Rika: Is it really that good.
Takato: It's more than good for both of us, It's the best!
Rika: Ok sure. Bye Takato.
Takato: Bye.
-----End of Flash Back-----
"Well you should have felt my trembling body all over the acting. You were too good and I almost believe it." Takato said making Rika steam.
"What did you say!" Rika shouted at Takato's face.
"Look, I just did that to bail me out of the contest. But something more worse have happened!" Rika said sighing.
"Yeah it's your fault." Takato said insulting.
"Not another word out of that! Or else..." Rika said with raging eyes.
"Hey chill a bit." Takato said sweet dropping from Rika's expression.
"So what do you want to show me?" Rika asked.
"Uh...Yeah I remember." Takato said while taking something out of his pocket.
"I got this!" Takato showed Rika two tickets.
"How did you get that! That's the ticket to the coming District Digimon Card Battle held in the Splash Island resort!" Rika shouted in shock.
"Ah...so you know. I search all of town for the last remaining ticket. Good thing I got two." Takato said while taking the tickets off Rika's sight.
"Um...so are you going to invite me 'cause if you do..." Rika begged Takato.
"Of coarse I'll invite you just teach me to card battle more." Takato said making Rika smile.
"Sure I'll teach you my new techniques." Rika answered.
While they were talking they were already at the park. Rika noticed something glowing. It was the sunset. Rika stopped Takato and said,
"Hey want to sit and watch the sunset?" Rika said while sitting on a nearby bench.
"Sure, a sunset won't hurt." Takato said and sat down with Rika.
They both watch the big glowing ball of fire went down to it's rest. Takato just admire the sunset when Rika moved closer to him. When they were close to each other, Rika laid her hand at Takato's hand. Then she gripped his hands gently. And then she rested her head on Takato's shoulder. Takato didn't felt anything that would get him to blush because he's with Rika. Then Rika spoke,
"This sunset reminds me of memories, memories that are only going to be memories...of the past"
Takato took off his hand from Rika's hand. Rika looked disappointed but then Takato smiled. He place his hand at Rika's opposite shoulder and pulled her gently making her closer to him and then Rika rested her head again at his shoulder while Takato rested his head at Rika's. Takato said something,
"Rika, the things that happened to us today remind me also of the past... yesterday and the next yesterday. But nothing of my happy thoughts is more greater of what is happening today."
[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\ [\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\
Memories are things of our thoughts that have their own scent. Some are bitter and some are sweet. Each memory is special for us and will be cherished in our thoughts forever. If we forgot the scent of our sweet memory we could always go back and scent its sweet heavenly scent...
[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\ [\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\
The two just sat there occupying each other by their sides when something move at their front in the bushes. Rika was the first to notice it but she didn't care. Then suddenly...
FLASH!!!!
The two was shock!
"WHAT THE!!!!" Rika shouted getting out of Takato's hand.
"That was perfect!" A voice came from the bushes.
Kazu stood up from the bushes with a camera in his hand. Kenta stood up from the bushes with a camera in his hand too.
"Now let's take the reaction of the love birds" Kenta said while taking picture of the reaction of the two.
"This is perfect you two" Kazu added while starting taking pictures too.
"What are you doing guys!!!" Takato shouted while standing up.
"You know that Rika is---" Takato stopped 'cause he knew that Rika is going for rampage.
'I'm going to KILL YOU!!!" Rika yelled at the duo while charging towards them.
Rika first gave Kazu an uppercut, sending him way up high. Then Rika gave Kenta a high kick, hitting him directly at the head.
"Don't do anything stupid again or else it would be more painful!" Rika said grabbing Kazu by his shirt.
"Now if you develop that film I'm going to do it." Rika said while her eyes were raging like fire.
Rika finally dropped Kazu then said,
"Sorry if you have to see that in front of this morons!"
"Rika you're still the same." Takato said while smiling.
The two walked pass out of the scene. Takato looked back and saw the two lying in the ground with stars surrounding them. Takato laughed a bit. They were again walking down the side of the streets. Takato suddenly asked an out of the topic question,
"Hey Rika why do you always tie up you hair?"
"Why would you want to know than anyway?" Rika asked too.
"Well it just came to me." Takato replied.
"Takato, you know that we girls show our femininity by swaying our hair. The same that only girls are the most ones that wear skirts." Rika explained.
"So why don't you sway your wonderful hair?" Takato questioned again.
"Because I don't want to be that feminine. I guess I have a reputation to make." Rika answered.
"Oh..." Takato reacted
Then Takato remembered something. He remembered that he saw a torn out card in front of his room. He then asked,
"Uh Rika before you got out of my house yesterday, did you tore a card and left it in front of my room?"
"Yeah." Rika said in response.
"Oh, I'm sorry if I acted all stupid yesterday." Takato apologized.
"No don't say sorry. It was the most ordinary reaction for lying to you." Rika said.
"I tried to tape the card together to get the message but I guess I'm not to brilliant to do it." Takato said.
"Don't worry." Rika enlightened Takato.
"So the only thing I did is that I may another one." Takato said while taking out a card from his pocket.
"Here." Takato said while giving the card to Rika.
Rika read the card again. It reads,
~0~
So here we stand in our sacred place
With the sound of the crowd so far away
You take my hand and did feels like home
Both understand it's were we belong
So why would I stay 'til I say goodbye
Both wanna reach, both wanna fly
So let's take tonight to carry us thru the lonely times
I always look back 'cause I walk away
This memory will last for eternity
And all of our tears will be lost in the rain
'Til I find my way back to your arms again
But until that day, you know you are the Queen of my Heart
~0~
Rika stopped reading because she knew the song was enough to cheer her up. Then Takato said,
"You like? It's not better than what you made."
"Don't worry it's better than mine." Rika replied.
Then Rika started again,
"Takato I've been thinking..."
Rika took off the hair clip that have been the one tying up her hair. Then she said,
"Maybe this for once I could sway my hair. You're the only one here so it's ok."
"Hmm...your really beautiful." Takato said with a smile.
"Thanks." Rika blushed.
While they were talking they have arrived at Rika's house. Then Takato asked,
"So what time am I going to here tomorrow?"
"You could be here at 8 in the morning." Rika answered.
Rika walked start to their front door and said,
"Bye"
Takato waved goodbye too. When Rika was inside their house her mom cuts in,
"Well now I didn't know that you sway your hair in public."
"Err...I did it only once and not in public." Rika answered
"You mean in private? Just kidding. Ms. Chiharu just called and said the great news." Her mom replied.
"What do you mean great news!!!!!" Rika shouted.
"Sorry honey for not telling you..." Her mom sweat dropped.
"Now I'm in a performance with---" Rika paused.
"Takato. Oh how sweet." Her mom eyes glowed like star.
"MOM!!! You're the one who did this!" Rika screamed.
"Well at least your happy with your boyfriend." Her mom said it again.
"Takato is NOT MY BOYFRIEND!!!" Rika screamed ferociously.
"He will be." Her mom said to make Rika more boil.
"RAH!!!" Rika screamed for the last time.
"Had dinner? There is food on the table. Well gotta go." Her said going out of the topic.
"Where you going?" Rika asked while calming down.
"To prepare for the performance." Her mom said while going out of the house.
"Grr...I need to eat and rest." Rika said while proceeding to the dinning room.
After she ate dinner she went straight to her room. She then lied in her bed. She then thought of what she and her mom talk about. The thing that was stuck in her mind was,
"He will be your boyfriend."
She then thought,
"I hope so..."
-----At Takato's home-----
Takato have just finished dinner when his dad spoke,
"Well what have you been doing this afternoon?"
"Are you with your sweet Rika?" His mom added.
"I just went to the park that's all" Takato answered.
"Takato just tell us what happened." His dad said.
"Well we just went to the park that's all and that's the truth." Takato said.
"What do you mean we? Is anybody with you?" His mom said making Takato sweat drop.
"Um...It's just R-Rika" Takato answered.
"I knew it! Takato has a girlfriend." His dad concluded.
"She's not my girlfriend 'cause I haven't ask yet." Takato said.
Then he covered his mouth on what he said.
"Takato you know that you should tell her before she gets sick of you." His mom advised.
"Good luck with your love life." His dad told him while getting out of the house.
"Yeah we pray that you get your first kiss." His mom said while getting out of the house too.
"Where are you going?" Takato asked.
His dad came in again in the house and gave Takato the keys. Then he said,
"We're going to the grocery."
"Oh" Takato reacted.
"Better call Rika then." His dad added while getting out of the house again.
"They so interfere with my life." Takato said while marching straight to his room.
He then went to his desk and sat down on a chair. Then he thought,
"But they're right on what they said, I should ask her."
Then he wrote in his diary every detail that happened. After that he draw Rika having a swayed hair. Takato then thought,
"If I have the guts to do it..."
-----At Henry's home-----
Henry just had dinner. He was in his room, lying on his bed. Henry was just thinking of things...things about Jeri. It was 7:30 when Henry noticed. So he got up and went to the telephone. He then dialed Jeri number.
=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\
Henry: Hello can I speak with Jeri.
Jeri: Jeri speaking.
Henry: Jeri it's me Henry. I just develop your film.
Jeri: Oh I'll just go to your house.
Henry: No need. I'll go there.
Jeri: You've done a lot for me so I'm the one who's going over to you apartment.
Henry: Men always do women favors.
Jeri: I can't argue with you. So why won't we just meet at the park?
Henry: Fine by me. Bye.
Jeri: Bye.
=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\
Henry put the phone down and went outside the house, telling his mom that he'll go out a second. Henry had the picture on his hand and the camera on the other hand. It was a cold night, good thing he wore a vest. He can't seem to get that thing off his mind...the thing that what did Jeri told Ryo.
He was still thinking of it when he arrived at the park. He waited in front of a cherry blossom tree. Henry stood in front of the tree were its petals were falling. He waited a minute until Jeri arrived wearing a red coat (Why is it red? It should be green. But just imagine she looks so cute in a red coat).
"Jeri here's the pictures." Henry said while handling over the picture.
"Thanks a lot Henry." Jeri said while taking the picture.
Jeri look at the pictures. All she can see was the two of them smiling in every other places. Jeri was still gazing at the picture when Henry spoke,
"You and Ryo is the a perfect pair. A beautiful young lady and a perfect guy." Henry said while looking down.
"So you saw us?" Jeri asked.
"Yeah." Henry looked at Jeri.
"You were the ones I saw at the mall peeking on us." Jeri said.
"Yeah we were the ones." Henry answered.
"I only wanted Ryo to be a good friend. That's all." Jeri said looking at Henry too.
"I'm not handsome, tall or popular but why am I feeling things..." Henry said while looking at the falling petals.
"No Henry. Feelings are there for a reason. Reasons that a low class being could ever know. Don't ask yourself why but ask yourself how...how could you express it." Jeri paused and looked up to the falling petals.
"Every feeling is special for they are in everyone of us. We treasure for it is special. And why is it special is because we feel it for each other." Jeri said with her eyes glowing like crystal.
"Well I guess you're right...feelings are what we express for each other." Henry said while looking at Jeri.
The two paused for a moment...a moment that will be value forever in their lives. They knew that the time was right for them to realize something...something that only they could ever know. For what is it is for them to seek. To seek it could be the greatest answer to their lives and to answer their question why...why do I feel this way.
We people was built to be mortal...mortal enough to enjoy life. Life has its own faces. Some are bitter and some are sweet. But is it the greatest challenge of life is to face it. To face it for better or worse, for good or evil. We may never know until we mortals go thru that own special moment in life.
A special moment that will last forever in our hearts eternally not until time stop but until we find our selves together in our greatest dream. The dream that we should be together for the moment that time elapses time or what we call everlasting life, together...
The special moment that we find ourselves together throughout eternity with no one to stop us...no even time.
"This isn't goodbye forever or anything. Don't get so tear-jerking." Henry said while his eyes were quite glowing.
"I wasn't" Jeri said while wiping her built up tears.
"Sorry Jeri but I think I got the wrong camera." Henry said while suspecting the camera.
"So you're going to go back to get my camera?" Jeri said while looking at Henry.
"Well I guess so," Henry said while facing back then turning taking a glimpse of Jeri.
"Just wait here" Henry said while walking away.
[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[- [-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[
Everyone passing by carries a heavy bag
Yet finds tomorrow a shimmer, waving in a distance
Hope to carry on slides down at my hand like sand
Counting endless nights of tormented days
I was searching for a piece of myself
The more I lose the more certain this feeling gets
The feeling that I'm sure gonna walk forever by your side
[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[- [-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[
Henry was walking away until Jeri said,
"Henry wait!"
Jeri followed Henry. When Henry looked behind Jeri was already there. Then Jeri hold Henry's hand gently. Henry just smiled and so does Jeri. They walked to Henry's apartment together no matter what the obstacles may be in their life.
Words aren't needed to express what they feel for each other...

Chapter Four,
We Don't Say Goodbye
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
The sun rise for a beautiful day. It stop raining when Takato woke up. Takato stretched his hands and stood up. He opened the curtains and saw some birds chirping at his window.
"This is going to be a long day," he whispered to himself.
Takato went to the shower. After the shower, he wore his usual clothes. He first watched the morning shows at his room. While watching television, his mother knocks on the door saying breakfast is ready. Takato went downstairs and straight to the dinning room. He sat and ready to eat when his dad said...
"Takato, Rika has been calling you all day at the phone yesterday."
"You really made a jerk act to Rika yesterday. What did you do now?" His mom added.
"W-what! I didn't do anything! I'm innocent!" Takato said over acting.
"Takato you're over reacting. What did you do anyway?" His dad tease.
"Well...Nothing to tell the truth." Takato said guiltily.
"C'mon, tell us." His mom said with a sigh.
A ring at the telephone up stairs caught Mr. Matsuda's attention. He quickly went to the phone and picks it up.
"Look who's in the telephone, its Rika!" His dad said holding the phone.
Takato quickly grabs the phone and went to his room (it's a wireless phone).
-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
Takato: Hello? Takato speaking.
Rika: Hello Goggle head.
Takato: Oh hi Rika. What's up?
Rika: I just called to remind you that it's 2:00.
Takato: Ok. Uh, Rika it's the fifth time you called. Are you Ok?
Rika: I'm Ok, I'm just worry about you... if it's Ok with you on what we're going to do (Too many "Ok" don't you think).
Takato: I'm sure fine. Hey, what are friends for?
Rika: I'm totally nervous.
Takato: No need to be nervous. You'll pass it off for sure. You have me remember.
Rika: Yeah, I have you.
Takato: Hope it all go well.
Rika: Me too. Bye...Takato.
Takato: Bye.
-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
Takato went down stairs again to continue eating when his dad said,
"Wonderful conversation?"
"Of coarse it's a wonderful conversation Honey. Takato's face will say it." His mom sniggered.
"Uh...eh" Takato said blushing.
-----At Nonaka's Residence-----
Rika put the phone back. She went to the dinning room to eat breakfast. Her mom was sitting and said,
"Did you call your boyfriend again? It's the fifth time you called him."
"For the last time mom, he is not my BOYFRIEND!" Rika shouted then she sat.
"Ok, ok, Takato. So what important thing did you said to him this time?" Her mom added.
"Same as ever." Rika said.
"Your planning to make him a boyfriend so you could drop out the pageant. Isn't that right?" Her mom said like she read her mind.
"Why would I do that?" Rika said quivering.
"Honey its all right, just act your way in and they won't notice...if they're dunce." Her mom said alarming Rika.
"Mom!" Rika shouted.
"Don't worry sweetie, you're just going to sign a form." Her mom said think.
"I just wish I haven't went to that school." Rika complaint.
-----At Henry Side-----
Henry was walking again in the mini-mall. He thought he would see Jeri again. It was no luck he couldn't find her. All he can see were people. Henry was still walking pass the crowd. Then he noticed somewhat familiar. The two were exchanging cards with one another. They were Kazu and Kenta.
"Hey Kazu and Kenta, Whassup" Henry said approaching them.
"Oh hi Henry! We just had a super cool card shopping" Kazu said showing his knew cards.
"You two are the same as usual." Henry said with calmness.
"Let me turn over the question to you, What's up?" Kenta said with an evil smirk.
"Are you hanging around with someone else again?" Kazu said making Henry sweat drop.
"Huh? Just going here to the mall," Henry said sweat dropping.
"Henry we know that you have a disease on Jeri." Kazu said tapping Henry's shoulder.
"Why would you say that?"(Normal answer if someone asks you that guilty question) Henry said trembling.
"Henry admit it" Kazu said making Henry more sweat dropping.
"Wait a minute I just got here guys. Don't pick on me." Henry said with a fright.
"Guilty as charge." Kenta said.
"Uh...eh...Who told you!" Henry said then he covered his mouth.
"You mean it's really true?" Kenta asked.
"You idiot! Why did you say that?!" Henry shouted to himself.
"No! It's just a slip of the tongue." Henry said protecting.
"Henry we won't go anywhere if you just won't tell us," Kazu said with breath.
"Stop it guys!" Henry shouted and trembled more.
"Henry, just tell the truth" Kenta added some more.
"Ok I admit it, I l-li...Jeri and I are just friends!" Henry shouted.
"I knew that you're just friends" Kazu said giving Henry a questionable face.
"Huh?" Henry questioned.
"We thought that you're maturing to a teenager. What a relief." Kenta said with ease.
Henry just stood there with a shock of surprise then Kazu started again,
"If you and Jeri are just friends you should tell her quick before she goes."
"Yeah." Henry replied.
Something told Kenta to another direction. When Kenta look on another direction, he saw Jeri with Ryo in a table together.
"Hey guys isn't that Jeri?" Kenta said pointing at her.
"That's Jeri but she couldn't be with Ryo." Kazu answer.
"Let's just see what will happen" Henry said peeking on the two.
Ryo and Jeri were having a conversation. Jeri was happily nodding and Ryo was maybe telling a joke. The three could tell that they are having fun. Then suddenly, Ryo's expression changed to a seriously type.
Ryo looked down and blushed. Then he finally said something. Henry read Ryo's lips and it says,
"Jeri I think...no I'm sure of what I'm feeling. The feeling that, I'm in love with you. I really wish that I could be your boyfriend."
What just Ryo said made him extremely blushing. Good thing Henry was the only one to read his lips. Then Kazu snorted,
"What did he say?"
"I don't know" Henry said in a low voice.
Henry looked at Jeri's reaction. Jeri blushed too upon hearing what Ryo said. Jeri was about to give her reaction when a crowd of people covers the view of the three.
"What happened?" Kenta said with a sigh.
"Henry, did you get what he said?" Kazu questioned.
"I haven't" Henry said faintly.
"I think he got what Ryo said." Kenta whispered to Kazu.
"Get that thing off your mind Henry. We don't know for sure what Ryo said. What did Ryo said anyway?" Kazu said making Henry feel worse than ever.
"Kazu your not helping" Kenta whispered again to Kazu.
"Uh Henry, I know a good pizza place we could chill out." Kazu said energizing Henry a bit.
"Sure guys." Henry replied.
They went inside a pizza place. The three took a table then ordered. Kenta and Kazu were talking about things and stuff, while Henry was just eating his pizza. The pizza was tasteless for Henry after what just happened. Kazu and Kenta knew that what Ryo said was bad news for Henry. The two insisted that Henry should go along and let them pay the bill.
Henry went out of the place. Henry's only thought was, why would Jeri like Ryo.
"I hope that Jeri gave a big fat "NO" to Ryo. He's such a jerk to tell her what he feels and asks her to be his girlfriend. If I see that Ryo guy again I'll make him suffer. I wish Jeri won't be enslave by Digimon jerk." Henry thought enraged.
"What's this the green monster of jealousy just came out of me. I'm actually jealous of Digimon jerk "(BTW, Henry was referring to Ryo as the Digimon jerk instead of a Digimon King. Sorry if I did that to Ryo. I just made it to make some jealousy reaction). Henry said confusedly.
"That means I really like Jeri." Henry thought enlightening up.
"Oh Jeri, I just wish you were here" Henry wished.
Henry was smiling slightly while picturing Jeri. He still walked while soundlessly daydreaming. Henry didn't notice that someone walking in front of him not looking forward too. Then they crash into each other. When Henry look forward, it was Jeri who bumped him.
"Ahhh! Jeri...sorry if I bumped you." Henry said with a little tension.
"No. Henry I'm the one who should say sorry. I wasn't looking forward." Jeri said while standing.
"It's Ok with me. So what brings you here?" Henry said standing up too.
"I was just going to the photo store to get ready some film." Jeri said.
"Oh..." Henry replied.
"So want to come with me again?" Jeri invited.
"Of coarse why not! I mean sure." Henry said gladly accepting.
"That's what you said yesterday." Jeri said with a small laugh.
"Uh...eh" Henry said blushing.
The two walked to the photo shop to get some film. Henry was careful not to say anything of what was Jeri doing before they met today. He knew he could trigger bad news or maybe, just maybe good news. That's a chance Henry doesn't have any guts to take. At the photo shop they bought a film then Jeri started,
"Good thing I still met you Henry."
"Yeah. I'm really glad to see you before tonight." Henry responded.
"We really need to have a break before that mushy good bye stuff?" Jeri whimpered.
"Why not! I do want to get some fun before you leave." Henry accepted.
"I heard that there is a Gamesville in this mall. Wanna go check it out? Jeri said with interest.
"It'll be fun for sure." Henry accepted again delightly.
"Great! now let's go" Jeri said while walking.
The two went inside the Gamesville. They played the arcades. After the arcade they tested their skills in air hockey. Then Henry insisted,
"Want to ride the roller coaster?"
"Sure." Jeri answered.
They went to the line and rode the coaster. When the ride goes, Henry closed his eyes and tightens the grip on the handle because he was quite scared of the ride. Then Jeri beam delightfully,
"Henry I didn't know that you're afraid of the roller coaster."
"Well it all started when I was in the 4th grade. The coaster stops at the top with me in front. It's scary to think of it again." Henry said while recalling his memories.
"Well, I'm sorry to make you remember your worst fear." Jeri apologized.
"It's Ok. We have to face our own fears one day." Henry said.
"Henry I envy you because you're really confident." Jeri thought.
"Man I sound really brave out there." Henry thought exhaling.
Then the ride started. After the ride Henry survived. They went into an ice- cream restaurant. The two relaxed and ordered. Then Jeri stated the conversation,
"I really had a great time Henry. Kinda think of it, we were going out for the last three days."
"Yeah I guess your right. But don't worry I'm all ready to go, if you invite me tomorrow." Henry said, then he put an invisible sock in his mouth.
"Um...Henry I'm going to leave this night." Jeri lament.
"I'm sorry to remind you." Henry apologized.
"Don't worry about it. I still have some film. Want to take some shots with me?" Jeri insisted.
Henry nods.
The two walked around the mall taking picture with each other in wonderful places. It was the greatest day for Henry and maybe the last. Henry spent the most of his time enjoying Jeri's wonderful smiles. She look so mature and beautiful. Henry thought of why would Jeri pick him instead of the other more handsome boys with muscular body between a brianiac like him. Henry didn't care 'cause watching Jeri so happy makes him lighthearted. But then Jeri will go to another country soon and Henry haven't said anything...anything about his feelings.
It was almost 1:00 when Henry insisted that Jeri should go home and get ready. Jeri nodded. They walked out of the mall. Jeri said that Henry should get going now but then Henry request firmly that he should walked her home. On the way to Jeri's home, Jeri sighed
"Oh shucks I forgot to develop the film."
"Oh yeah we still have the film." Henry sighed too.
"I guess I should go back to develop the film." Jeri gasped.
"Jeri it's not necessary to do that. I'll do it for you." Henry persisted.
"Are you sure?" Jeri inquired.
"Sure, I'll just call you when the film is developed." Henry said elated.
"Henry you're the best!" Jeri said while hugging him tightly with a little quick kiss on his cheek and giving the camera.
Henry blushed unlimitedly crimson red. Henry tried to hide his extraordinary blush while Jeri was waving good bye at him. When Jeri was out Henry's sight, Henry made a loud "YES".
Henry quickly rushed to the photo shop to develop the film. He dashed to his house (actually apartment but then its still his home). He sprinted straight to his room, closing the door. He jump to his bed then started to daydream. Henry just lied on his bed thinking that Jeri had just kissed him.
"Yes! She must really like me because she kissed me. 1000 points for me. Ryo I knew that you're a loser from the start. But then what did she tell Ryo..."
-----Back at Rika and Takato-----
Takato went over to Rika's house to fetch her. Takato felt every step on the way to her house was making him close to something unexpected. Who knows what would happen? He bumped to some people and telling him that to look at the way he's going but Takato didn't mind 'cause something more important was in his mind. And what's in Takato's mind was Rika. Then finally Takato arrive at her house quite trembling though. Takato rang the bell and Rika answered it.
"Oh hi Takato"
"Hi Rika, ready to go?" Takato asserted.
"Oh sure. Bye Grandma!" Rika said while closing the door and going to the street.
"You seemed pretty relaxed," Takato said following Rika.
"You don't know how nervous I am." Rika responded.
"It's alright Rika, you don't need to be nervous." Takato encouraged Rika.
"You don't know what I'm going to" Rika muttered.
The two went to the bus stop. They rode a lifeless bus straight to the rehearsing studio. Rika breathe freely after they got out of that boredom bus. They were going inside when Rika pulled Takato's hand. She drags Takato at the side of the building and talked,
"Uh Takato, I lied to you and still your giving me a favor. I think that's not right." Rika said in a low voice.
"Rika I don't care if you lied to me, I just want to make you happy that's all. It hurt sometimes but I still want to make you a favor cause you're my friend." Takato reasoned.
"But still then." Rika was unconvinced
"Don't worry about it." Takato said to cheer her.
"Takato I still haven't said sorry whole-hearted yet to you. That is what been disturbing me" Rika thought.
The two went inside the studio. They were in a large place colored in white. There were silences against the walls of the studio for there seems to be peace in the place. Thinking about the tranquility of the place made Rika annoyed because Rika was upset and the setting just fussed her. Rika remembered that her mom said that they should go to the counter to ask how could they drop out off the pageant. The two went to the counter to ask (Actually customer service area). The clerk was dressed in white blouse and a gray skirt greeted them,
"How may I help you?"
"I'm a contestant from the pageant that will be held this week and I was just gonna disapprove myself." Rika explained.
"Oh one of those second thinking people, Eh? Just go straight up the 3rd floor and proceed to the resigning room." The counter said with a smile.
The two went in front the elevator. Takato was about to push the button when the elevator door opened. The two went inside the elevator. Rika push the 3rd floor button. Then finally the door closed.
The two was out of sight of the clerk when she received a message from her fax. The clerk's eyes widen when she read the message. She was about to stop the two but they're already gone. The clerk whispered to herself,
"Oh well, I guess they'll find out about it when they get there."
They finally arrive at the third floor. The two came out of the elevator. Takato came out first then Rika followed. Takato then asked,
"Where is the resigning room anyway?"
"Um...let's see." Rika said examining a map of the 3rd floor in a wall.
"There it is." Rika said while pointing on the room in the map.
"Oh so its to our left and again, left to the third room." Takato said to make their direction clearer.
They both walked to where the room was...in silence. They ended up in front of a white door marked as the resigning room.
"Takato this is the place isn't?" Rika questioned faintly.
"Yeah I think this is the place." Takato said with quite a tremble.
Takato was the one to open the door. Takato and Rika went in and Takato closed the door. The room was painted white with bright bulbs on top of it. There was a metal table in the middle, two chairs was beside it and one chair at the opposite side which was occupied by a young lady. The young lady was about 26 years old and dressed up in white. The lady finally said,
"Oh you must be Rika and Takato. Rika, your mother called me earlier and said that you're going to be here."
"Um...yeah I'm Rika" Rika replied.
"Here have seat. By the way I'm Chiharu," Chiharu said.
Takato was almost going to take his seat when Rika stopped him.
"Takato wait!"
"What is it?"
"Takato what are you doing?! You and I both know that this is wrong. Why do you keep pushing yourself? Why?!" Rika said while tears were falling out of her violet eyes.
"Rika please..."
"Takato, I finally realize that I would more or less go thru this rather than hurting you..." Rika said with her tears still flowing.
Takato went closer to Rika. He hugged her warmly. Then said,
"Rika I done this only for you..."
"Huh?" Rika questioned while her tears were slowing down.
"I've would have done everything possible just to solve your problems even though it means my feelings." Takato said hugging Rika tighter.
"Takato, I'm really sorry for lying to you, I mean it..." Rika said hugging Takato too.
"Rika, I know..." Takato said in a soft voice while Rika pulled out a little from the hug and said,
"Takato, I love you."
What Takato was going to say changed Rika's life forever,
"I love you too." Takato said while quite blushing.
"I love you with all my heart." Takato said then hugged her again, pulling her again to his soft warm body.
"Takato, I'm sorry." Rika said then hugged Takato too.
They look at each other's eyes then kiss passionately. All the pain and suffering was ended in that faithful moment. It lasted forever and ended so soon. It may be the just one ordinary day for some people, but for both of them it's the day that they've find their loving heart's desire.
Romance filled the room by a minute when it both came to them that they're still on the resigning room. For the last minute after the kiss they just look at each other's eyes saying only one thing, "I love you". Takato and Rika slowly turned their heads facing Chiharu.
They saw Chiharu crying non-stop holding a wet cloth. She then wiped her tears and said,
"That was the most * sniff * wonderful romance scene I ever saw. Your mom was right you two are the best of the best. Seeing that makes me put you automatically in the job. You're in!"
"HUH?!, what the?" Rika questioned.
"What about the pageant?" Takato followed the question.
"Didn't Ms. Nonaka told you that the pageant was canceled." Chiharu said.
"What! She didn't said anything." Rika asked.
"Ok let me explain. For the last few days the female contestant showed up with their boyfriend, well actually hired boyfriends. Only few were left of the contestants, so we decided to cancel it." Chiharu explained.
"So what room are we in?" Takato inquired.
"This is now the registration for the 2k2 Unit contest in category of dramatics."
"So you mean we're at a registration room?" Takato asked.
"Yep and you two are the main star." Chiharu answered.
"Did mom now anything about this?" Rika questioned.
"Yeah she knew every detail." Chiharu responded.
"MOM!!!!" Rika shouted.
-----Three Hours Later-----
"Finally I got out of that!" Rika said while going out of the rehearsing studio.
"Yeah I'm so glad to breathe again." Takato said while going out of the building too.
"Now all I want is to go home and yell at mom!" Rika said furiously.
The two walk home together until Rika broke the silence,
"Nice acting Takato."
"You too." Takato answered.
"I can't believe that I did my part of the acting in front of you." Rika blushed.
"It's so embarrassing." Rika added.
-----Flash Back: Last night's phone call at Takato's room-----
Rika: Hello? Can I speak with Takato?
Takato: Takato speaking.
Rika: Um Takato it's me Rika. I was quarreled by my conscience that something might go wrong tomorrow.
Takato: Oh...
Rika: Takato are Ok?
Takato: Yeah.
Rika: Um...I was wondering, Could you give me an advice for tomorrow?
Takato: Your getting an advice of the expert faker.
Rika: So what's the great faker's advice to pull it off tomorrow?
Takato: I suggest we create a stunt.
Rika: What stunt is that?
Takato: This just an advice but if you don't like it, don't kill me.
Rika: Why would your advice make me really mad? It's not like a roman---
Takato: Your right.
Rika: What!!!!!!!
Takato: Hey just an advice.
Rika: It maybe the most craziest stunt I would ever perform, but I'll do it just to go out of that girly pageant.
Takato: Your really determined.
Rika: So speak up our line.
Takato: Ok, I just had a wonderful scene.
Rika: Tell me.
*Takato finished telling Rika the script *
Rika: Are you insane!?
Takato: Hey it's for your own good.
Rika: But if we do it, make sure that don't tell anyone about it or don't even enjoy a little bit of it!!!!
Takato: Ok, Ok I got it.
Rika: Don't count anything in repay!
Takato: Why?
Rika: I know you'll have enough tomorrow.
Takato: Eh?
Rika: Any complains?
Takato: Dang I just have a great thing for you.
Rika: What's that?
Takato: I won't tell but if you give me a chance, I could show you.
Rika: Is it really that good.
Takato: It's more than good for both of us, It's the best!
Rika: Ok sure. Bye Takato.
Takato: Bye.
-----End of Flash Back-----
"Well you should have felt my trembling body all over the acting. You were too good and I almost believe it." Takato said making Rika steam.
"What did you say!" Rika shouted at Takato's face.
"Look, I just did that to bail me out of the contest. But something more worse have happened!" Rika said sighing.
"Yeah it's your fault." Takato said insulting.
"Not another word out of that! Or else..." Rika said with raging eyes.
"Hey chill a bit." Takato said sweet dropping from Rika's expression.
"So what do you want to show me?" Rika asked.
"Uh...Yeah I remember." Takato said while taking something out of his pocket.
"I got this!" Takato showed Rika two tickets.
"How did you get that! That's the ticket to the coming District Digimon Card Battle held in the Splash Island resort!" Rika shouted in shock.
"Ah...so you know. I search all of town for the last remaining ticket. Good thing I got two." Takato said while taking the tickets off Rika's sight.
"Um...so are you going to invite me 'cause if you do..." Rika begged Takato.
"Of coarse I'll invite you just teach me to card battle more." Takato said making Rika smile.
"Sure I'll teach you my new techniques." Rika answered.
While they were talking they were already at the park. Rika noticed something glowing. It was the sunset. Rika stopped Takato and said,
"Hey want to sit and watch the sunset?" Rika said while sitting on a nearby bench.
"Sure, a sunset won't hurt." Takato said and sat down with Rika.
They both watch the big glowing ball of fire went down to it's rest. Takato just admire the sunset when Rika moved closer to him. When they were close to each other, Rika laid her hand at Takato's hand. Then she gripped his hands gently. And then she rested her head on Takato's shoulder. Takato didn't felt anything that would get him to blush because he's with Rika. Then Rika spoke,
"This sunset reminds me of memories, memories that are only going to be memories...of the past"
Takato took off his hand from Rika's hand. Rika looked disappointed but then Takato smiled. He place his hand at Rika's opposite shoulder and pulled her gently making her closer to him and then Rika rested her head again at his shoulder while Takato rested his head at Rika's. Takato said something,
"Rika, the things that happened to us today remind me also of the past... yesterday and the next yesterday. But nothing of my happy thoughts is more greater of what is happening today."
[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\ [\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\
Memories are things of our thoughts that have their own scent. Some are bitter and some are sweet. Each memory is special for us and will be cherished in our thoughts forever. If we forgot the scent of our sweet memory we could always go back and scent its sweet heavenly scent...
[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\ [\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\[\
The two just sat there occupying each other by their sides when something move at their front in the bushes. Rika was the first to notice it but she didn't care. Then suddenly...
FLASH!!!!
The two was shock!
"WHAT THE!!!!" Rika shouted getting out of Takato's hand.
"That was perfect!" A voice came from the bushes.
Kazu stood up from the bushes with a camera in his hand. Kenta stood up from the bushes with a camera in his hand too.
"Now let's take the reaction of the love birds" Kenta said while taking picture of the reaction of the two.
"This is perfect you two" Kazu added while starting taking pictures too.
"What are you doing guys!!!" Takato shouted while standing up.
"You know that Rika is---" Takato stopped 'cause he knew that Rika is going for rampage.
'I'm going to KILL YOU!!!" Rika yelled at the duo while charging towards them.
Rika first gave Kazu an uppercut, sending him way up high. Then Rika gave Kenta a high kick, hitting him directly at the head.
"Don't do anything stupid again or else it would be more painful!" Rika said grabbing Kazu by his shirt.
"Now if you develop that film I'm going to do it." Rika said while her eyes were raging like fire.
Rika finally dropped Kazu then said,
"Sorry if you have to see that in front of this morons!"
"Rika you're still the same." Takato said while smiling.
The two walked pass out of the scene. Takato looked back and saw the two lying in the ground with stars surrounding them. Takato laughed a bit. They were again walking down the side of the streets. Takato suddenly asked an out of the topic question,
"Hey Rika why do you always tie up you hair?"
"Why would you want to know than anyway?" Rika asked too.
"Well it just came to me." Takato replied.
"Takato, you know that we girls show our femininity by swaying our hair. The same that only girls are the most ones that wear skirts." Rika explained.
"So why don't you sway your wonderful hair?" Takato questioned again.
"Because I don't want to be that feminine. I guess I have a reputation to make." Rika answered.
"Oh..." Takato reacted
Then Takato remembered something. He remembered that he saw a torn out card in front of his room. He then asked,
"Uh Rika before you got out of my house yesterday, did you tore a card and left it in front of my room?"
"Yeah." Rika said in response.
"Oh, I'm sorry if I acted all stupid yesterday." Takato apologized.
"No don't say sorry. It was the most ordinary reaction for lying to you." Rika said.
"I tried to tape the card together to get the message but I guess I'm not to brilliant to do it." Takato said.
"Don't worry." Rika enlightened Takato.
"So the only thing I did is that I may another one." Takato said while taking out a card from his pocket.
"Here." Takato said while giving the card to Rika.
Rika read the card again. It reads,
~0~
So here we stand in our sacred place
With the sound of the crowd so far away
You take my hand and did feels like home
Both understand it's were we belong
So why would I stay 'til I say goodbye
Both wanna reach, both wanna fly
So let's take tonight to carry us thru the lonely times
I always look back 'cause I walk away
This memory will last for eternity
And all of our tears will be lost in the rain
'Til I find my way back to your arms again
But until that day, you know you are the Queen of my Heart
~0~
Rika stopped reading because she knew the song was enough to cheer her up. Then Takato said,
"You like? It's not better than what you made."
"Don't worry it's better than mine." Rika replied.
Then Rika started again,
"Takato I've been thinking..."
Rika took off the hair clip that have been the one tying up her hair. Then she said,
"Maybe this for once I could sway my hair. You're the only one here so it's ok."
"Hmm...your really beautiful." Takato said with a smile.
"Thanks." Rika blushed.
While they were talking they have arrived at Rika's house. Then Takato asked,
"So what time am I going to here tomorrow?"
"You could be here at 8 in the morning." Rika answered.
Rika walked start to their front door and said,
"Bye"
Takato waved goodbye too. When Rika was inside their house her mom cuts in,
"Well now I didn't know that you sway your hair in public."
"Err...I did it only once and not in public." Rika answered
"You mean in private? Just kidding. Ms. Chiharu just called and said the great news." Her mom replied.
"What do you mean great news!!!!!" Rika shouted.
"Sorry honey for not telling you..." Her mom sweat dropped.
"Now I'm in a performance with---" Rika paused.
"Takato. Oh how sweet." Her mom eyes glowed like star.
"MOM!!! You're the one who did this!" Rika screamed.
"Well at least your happy with your boyfriend." Her mom said it again.
"Takato is NOT MY BOYFRIEND!!!" Rika screamed ferociously.
"He will be." Her mom said to make Rika more boil.
"RAH!!!" Rika screamed for the last time.
"Had dinner? There is food on the table. Well gotta go." Her said going out of the topic.
"Where you going?" Rika asked while calming down.
"To prepare for the performance." Her mom said while going out of the house.
"Grr...I need to eat and rest." Rika said while proceeding to the dinning room.
After she ate dinner she went straight to her room. She then lied in her bed. She then thought of what she and her mom talk about. The thing that was stuck in her mind was,
"He will be your boyfriend."
She then thought,
"I hope so..."
-----At Takato's home-----
Takato have just finished dinner when his dad spoke,
"Well what have you been doing this afternoon?"
"Are you with your sweet Rika?" His mom added.
"I just went to the park that's all" Takato answered.
"Takato just tell us what happened." His dad said.
"Well we just went to the park that's all and that's the truth." Takato said.
"What do you mean we? Is anybody with you?" His mom said making Takato sweat drop.
"Um...It's just R-Rika" Takato answered.
"I knew it! Takato has a girlfriend." His dad concluded.
"She's not my girlfriend 'cause I haven't ask yet." Takato said.
Then he covered his mouth on what he said.
"Takato you know that you should tell her before she gets sick of you." His mom advised.
"Good luck with your love life." His dad told him while getting out of the house.
"Yeah we pray that you get your first kiss." His mom said while getting out of the house too.
"Where are you going?" Takato asked.
His dad came in again in the house and gave Takato the keys. Then he said,
"We're going to the grocery."
"Oh" Takato reacted.
"Better call Rika then." His dad added while getting out of the house again.
"They so interfere with my life." Takato said while marching straight to his room.
He then went to his desk and sat down on a chair. Then he thought,
"But they're right on what they said, I should ask her."
Then he wrote in his diary every detail that happened. After that he draw Rika having a swayed hair. Takato then thought,
"If I have the guts to do it..."
-----At Henry's home-----
Henry just had dinner. He was in his room, lying on his bed. Henry was just thinking of things...things about Jeri. It was 7:30 when Henry noticed. So he got up and went to the telephone. He then dialed Jeri number.
=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\
Henry: Hello can I speak with Jeri.
Jeri: Jeri speaking.
Henry: Jeri it's me Henry. I just develop your film.
Jeri: Oh I'll just go to your house.
Henry: No need. I'll go there.
Jeri: You've done a lot for me so I'm the one who's going over to you apartment.
Henry: Men always do women favors.
Jeri: I can't argue with you. So why won't we just meet at the park?
Henry: Fine by me. Bye.
Jeri: Bye.
=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\
Henry put the phone down and went outside the house, telling his mom that he'll go out a second. Henry had the picture on his hand and the camera on the other hand. It was a cold night, good thing he wore a vest. He can't seem to get that thing off his mind...the thing that what did Jeri told Ryo.
He was still thinking of it when he arrived at the park. He waited in front of a cherry blossom tree. Henry stood in front of the tree were its petals were falling. He waited a minute until Jeri arrived wearing a red coat (Why is it red? It should be green. But just imagine she looks so cute in a red coat).
"Jeri here's the pictures." Henry said while handling over the picture.
"Thanks a lot Henry." Jeri said while taking the picture.
Jeri look at the pictures. All she can see was the two of them smiling in every other places. Jeri was still gazing at the picture when Henry spoke,
"You and Ryo is the a perfect pair. A beautiful young lady and a perfect guy." Henry said while looking down.
"So you saw us?" Jeri asked.
"Yeah." Henry looked at Jeri.
"You were the ones I saw at the mall peeking on us." Jeri said.
"Yeah we were the ones." Henry answered.
"I only wanted Ryo to be a good friend. That's all." Jeri said looking at Henry too.
"I'm not handsome, tall or popular but why am I feeling things..." Henry said while looking at the falling petals.
"No Henry. Feelings are there for a reason. Reasons that a low class being could ever know. Don't ask yourself why but ask yourself how...how could you express it." Jeri paused and looked up to the falling petals.
"Every feeling is special for they are in everyone of us. We treasure for it is special. And why is it special is because we feel it for each other." Jeri said with her eyes glowing like crystal.
"Well I guess you're right...feelings are what we express for each other." Henry said while looking at Jeri.
The two paused for a moment...a moment that will be value forever in their lives. They knew that the time was right for them to realize something...something that only they could ever know. For what is it is for them to seek. To seek it could be the greatest answer to their lives and to answer their question why...why do I feel this way.
We people was built to be mortal...mortal enough to enjoy life. Life has its own faces. Some are bitter and some are sweet. But is it the greatest challenge of life is to face it. To face it for better or worse, for good or evil. We may never know until we mortals go thru that own special moment in life.
A special moment that will last forever in our hearts eternally not until time stop but until we find our selves together in our greatest dream. The dream that we should be together for the moment that time elapses time or what we call everlasting life, together...
The special moment that we find ourselves together throughout eternity with no one to stop us...no even time.
"This isn't goodbye forever or anything. Don't get so tear-jerking." Henry said while his eyes were quite glowing.
"I wasn't" Jeri said while wiping her built up tears.
"Sorry Jeri but I think I got the wrong camera." Henry said while suspecting the camera.
"So you're going to go back to get my camera?" Jeri said while looking at Henry.
"Well I guess so," Henry said while facing back then turning taking a glimpse of Jeri.
"Just wait here" Henry said while walking away.
[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[- [-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[
Everyone passing by carries a heavy bag
Yet finds tomorrow a shimmer, waving in a distance
Hope to carry on slides down at my hand like sand
Counting endless nights of tormented days
I was searching for a piece of myself
The more I lose the more certain this feeling gets
The feeling that I'm sure gonna walk forever by your side
[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[- [-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[-[
Henry was walking away until Jeri said,
"Henry wait!"
Jeri followed Henry. When Henry looked behind Jeri was already there. Then Jeri hold Henry's hand gently. Henry just smiled and so does Jeri. They walked to Henry's apartment together no matter what the obstacles may be in their life.
Words aren't needed to express what they feel for each other...
