~~~School over~~~

Tai and Sora walked home, as Tai tried to charm Sora into her letting him

copy her homework. Sora said no ofcourse, and they reached Tai's apartment.

They went inside, to come face to face with an angry expression on Mrs.

Takenouchi.

"Sora!!! I heard you were the only girl in the class not to be invited to

Yumi's birthday party," Her mother said sternly.

"Yah. So?" Sora said.

"So? SO? It's not propour for a lady to be talking with BOYS all the time!

You're rude Sora! What kind of lady ARE you? I mean really Sora! You're

dishonouring me AGAIN!"Her mother shouted. Tai closed the door, and shuffled

off. Another fight. He shouldn't interfere.

"Mama! What the hell do you mean? I can hang out with whoever I want!"

Sora retorted.

"Don't you DARE talk to me like that! I can't believe you're acting this

way! Where did you get that tear in your skirt?" Her mother shouted.

"I was playing SOCCOR! D'YA MIND???" Sora screamed. Thus, they were in

another shouting fight. THIS time the fight was different.

"I HATE you MAMA! I HATE YOU! Why don't you LEAVE ME ALONE??? WHY CAN'T I

BE WHAT I WANT TO BE??" Sora shouted, now sobbing.

"WELL TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH I'M NOT THAT FOND OF YOU EITHER!" Mrs.

Takenouchi said, sobbing just as much. Sora thus, ran out the door. She

didn't look back. She just kept running.

She stopped at Tokyo park. She went to a tree, and sobbed some more.

"Why can't anyone love me? Why am I so hard to care about?" Sora choked

out. She just cried.

She was impossible to love...she hated everything. Now...wait. She hated

herself. She hated her father, and the pain he 'caused her.

She hates love.

"I hate love....but I hate myself the most," Sora said bitterly.

How could she like love..if she never felt it? Never recieved it? Never

even knew what it was about?

Sora stood up..hair matted to her head because of the sweat she was

washing out. She had no other choice.

She walked back to Tai's house, to be greeted by the whole family hugging

her...except for her mother. She and her mother looked in the eye. Her

mother just walked back to her own room. Sora felt tears run down her

cheeks. Tai looked at Sora sympatheticully. She just walked back to her

room, and smiled at the Kamiya's, and gave Kari a little pat on the head, and

then went into her room. Tai took on estep forword.

"Oh Sora..." He said quietly. The Kamiya's sighed. Sora and her mother

were going to have to stick together. They couldn't split up after all they

went through.
