Chapter Nine
" Are you sure about this? " Yamato asked as he looked at Mimi's sad face.
Mimi smiled painfully. No, this is not what she wanted or more likely to happen but she won't be able to face her schoolmate ever again if the rumors spread.
" Yes "
" But try to finished the school year first before you go "
" I can't " Mimi said finality is in her voice.
" Oh, alright but let Taichi explain himself. I know and I believe that he's not that kind of person to do those things "
" I can't and don't want to see him at this moment, Yamato. I don't know what to say "
" But – "
" Please try to understand "
" Okay, let change the subject then " Yamato said smiling and start another conversation that may put Mimi at ease.
Sora softly closes her diary. It's been a hell of a week since her two best guy friend had that fight and she hasn't talk to either Mimi or Yamato. She was so busy preparing the school's newspaper that she hasn't had a slightest idea who she supposed to talk to first.
She sighed, and there's this problem about putting those fight in their paper. She still recalls what Tess told her about that event.
" It happen on our school ground, that's why we must put in on the next issue, sides are we the eyes and ears of this school, writing this things is our job "
She knows that her columnist is right but as much as possible she don't want to have this issue spread. It would endanger not just her reputation but of Mimi's as well. And if this goes to Mimi's parent - all in hell will break lose!!!
Sora silently stood then about to go to bed when the phone ring. She quickly went to it.
" Hello, Sora here "
" Sora, this is Mimi, could we talk? "
" Mimi? Ah yah sure "
" Is tomorrow okay? Seven here at my place "
" Okay I'll be there… Uhmm, Mimi I'm sorry about – "
" No, don't say it, let's talk about it tomorrow Sora, bye " Mimi said then hung up.
" Yamato could we talk privately? " Taichi asked from the open door as he watched Yamato looked at his side.
Yamato slowly stood from his chair went outside their classroom then stop when they reach the empty corridor. Taichi followed, a long silence filled the air before Yamato finally spoke.
" I guess your not here to have another fight with me "
" No " Taichi said not looking at his side but instead of the wide football field of their school.
" Then you're only here for one reason " Yamato said a grin was on his lips.
" Yes " Taichi continue and before he could utter another word – to his surprise Yamato laugh out loud. He quickly looked at his side; he could see the amusement in his eyes.
" You know what Tai, you haven't change a thing. You're still the most difficult-to-admit-a-mistake guy that I have unfortunate to meet in my entire life " Yamato said then start to laugh again.
" That's not true! " Taichi defended.
" Oh, yah I almost forgot you're also as stubborn as your father is " Yamato continue while trying to suppress a giggled.
Taichi softly smiled, he haven't said a thing yet here his answer. He thought that it will be difficult to talk to him but Yamato truly has a kind heart.
" I'm sorry about that fight Yamato, I didn't mean it " Taichi said seriously.
" I know that friend. I have come to understand that you wouldn't do such thing to a lady especially if that lady is the one you love "
" Thanks for believing Matt, I truly appreciate it! "
" You're welcome men sides what are friends for if I can't understand a simple thing like that. But did you really – I mean… "
" Don't tell me you've become a gossiper now Mr. Famous Singer? " Taichi asked smiling widely.
" Aw, come on men, just give me a hitch. So how long did you guys do it? " Yamato asked softly for Taichi's ears alone.
" A gentleman never tells Mr. Singer so eat your heart out! " Taichi said then slowly walk away.
" Fine, Mr. Football player but if I do that thing I wont give you even a slightest detail get that! " Yamato yelled to the departing figure.
But could he ever do that? He hasn't talk to Sora and he knows that she's till angry with him. She haven't return his call, though he knows that she's busy with the school's paper but a simple call would not be so difficult.
( A/N:Is Yamato actually thinking about doing IT to Sora ? Kindda like out of character don't you think? But hey it's been my conclusion that guys do those things to their girlfriend as long as they are ready to face the consequences! ^_^ )
Yamato sigh. He just hoped that she's also as forgiving as he about what happen.
" Have a seat Miss Sora, Miss Mimi will be down shortly " said Wayne, Tachikawa's head servant.
Sora waited while looking at the quiet parlor room of Mimi's mansion. After five minutes, Mimi entered the parlor's door.
" Sora " Mimi said softly while walking then sit next to her.
" Hi, its been a while Mimi. How are… you? "
" Ahm… I'm fine I guess " She said then after that came a long silence.
Sora was about to break that silence when Wayne came in and put down what his carrying.
" Here's what you ordered Miss Mimi "
" Thanks Wayne "
" Do you need anything else? "
" No, this will be fine for now Wayne, thanks "
The head servant just nod then went out.
" Have a drink first Sora, before we could start this conversation of ours '
Sora nodded then lift her glass of orange juice then sip a few before putting it down.
" Okay since you're here I'll go straight to the point " Mimi started " I wanted to talk to you because I don't want to go without telling you how am I sorry about what had just happen these last few days. It's my fault, I know that and I'm hoping that you will forgive me. I'm so very sorry Sora to include you in this mess but you're all that I can trust "
" You're going, where? What are you saying Mimi? " Sora asked shocked.
" I'm planning to go to America this Saturday and finished my studies there "
" But why? I mean, you can't just go and leave. We have a month to finish the school year! "
" I know that but I can't face our schoolmate if I ever return to school… I'll be humiliated and – "
" That's not going to happen. Come on Mimi, if you're scared facing them because of what you did with Taichi then our entire school mate should be a shame of themselves too. You and I know that they all do IT, making love is an open book to everyone "
" I know but – "
" Look here, I understand you're situation Mimi and I don't feel a little bit sorry because I've been included in this problem of yours but try to think things over first. Rumors my spread and be sometime stay for a while but it will be still a rumor. The only thing that matter is that we know the truth, besides I don't want you to go " Sora said sadly.
Mimi smiled, she doesn't want too but she must… among other things she should take a break and talk to her parents.
" Promise me to think about this okay? Sides you must first let Tai explained him self… I know him he wouldn't do such thing to you, this is just a simple mistake of misunderstanding "
Mimi nodded but in her mind she already has a decision.
