I swallowed hard and knocked on Kari's door. It was the day I was supposed to take her out. It wasn't exactly a date. I just figured I owed her. And just being nice to her wouldn't cut it. I knocked again and her brother had answered the door again. "Hello." I said. Not exactly looking him in the eye. "So… it's you?" he said grinning smugly. "Yes." I answered.
"Okay… let me get this straight; first you dislike Kari…. And all of a sudden… your asking her out on a date?" "It's not a date!" I answered. Just then Kari came to the door. "Tai… are you picking on him?" she said. "Nah, I'm just teasing." Tai said and then went back inside. "Sorry about that." Kari said smiling. "it's okay… I know he was just playing around." Kari nodded. "Well… I'm ready she said." "Great." I answered.
Lucky for me that this wasn't going to last really long. Kari's curfew was at 8:00 straight. Her parents mentioned something about Kari needing a lot of rest… or something like that.
When we arrived at the theatres it was packed. (Well… it was a Friday night.) What do you want to see? I asked her. Kari looked at the movie posters and pointed to some fairy tale movie. The one for kids.
"That one!" she said enthusiastically. "Well… okay." I said and then sighed. I owe her…. I kept saying to myself.
The movie was full of cheerful background music… a little bit of action, nothing violent… and romance. *sigh* yes… romance. Kari seemed very interested. I just stared at screen; watching some fairy girl grant this poor girl some wish.
After about an hour the movie ended. "Don't you think that was interesting Takeru?" Kari asked me. "Yes… it was okay, I guess." I answered. "You know what I think was the most interesting part?" "What?" "The ending. Because I learned that it's possible for your dreams to come true no matter who you are… or what situation you might be into." "That's nice." I answered.
"Do you believe in dreams?" Kari asked. I thought for a second and then said; "Not really… they never got me very far." "But then can, if you believe in them. But, oh well… that's your opinion." Kari said smiling.
We had a small dinner and talked for a while. We had a normal conversation. And it felt as if I was talking to a close friend. Kari understood me and respected all my opinions. I actually was glad that we got to talk. Because that's when I realized that I truly did misunderstand her.
After all these years, I can call her a friend. I guess, she was my only true friend right now. Well, it was Kari's curfew, and I had to drop her off home. Before she left she had thanked me and told me that she had fun. I said good-bye and drove on my way home.
I thought about Kari for a while. She was a good person, she really was. Not a lot of people where like her. Nice, polite, and well… kind of pretty. Heh… not in a babe way though. Just pretty. I guess that I liked her. I then chucked to myself. I liked her…. But I definitely did not love her. That would never ever happen. I thought to myself. Later I would find out that I would be very wrong.
A/N: Well hope you enjoyed! I'll be updating soon! If you read a walk to remember… well, I guess you know the plot. But shhh! Don't spoil it.. Hehe. ^_^;; Bye!
