"A Miss Takeru Ishida for Miss Ishida."
"Thank you, Parkins. Show her in." said Lady Kamiya. Then to Yamato, "Well, that party did have good results I see."
"Oh yes. It was unexpected, but a wonderful surprise." replied Yamato. "I could not believe that Takeru was at the same party."
"Miss Takeru" announced Parkins.
"I shall take my leave of you. Oh, Taichi is out calling on somebody or he would have done this himself. He asked me to ask you if you would be interested to join their party for their outing today. I believe they are going to have a picnic." said Lady Kamiya, rising to leave.
"Then please tell him that it would be a pleasure to be able to join them." With a nod, Lady Kamiya left.
"Sit down, Takeru!"
"You are on good terms with Lord Kamiya and his friends." observed Takeru, taking a seat.
"Oh yes, they have been most kind to me. Lady Kamiya was kind enough to bring me out last night and Hikari - that's Lord Kamiya's sister, and I have been great friends and gone on many walks and outings together. This is so much better than back home. I never want to go back again."
"But has not father sent searches for you?"
"I believe he has, but they have not found me yet."
"Then do you think it is safer for you to stay here, instead of coming with me to our aunt's as I was going to ask you to do today?"
"Yes, Takeru, I would love to live with you, but I not only believe that I would be less likely to be found here, but I would not be bothering our good aunt who has already been kind enough to take you under her wing."
"Oh well."
"So how is life for you?"
"Oh it has been simply wonderful ."
++++++++++
Daisuke has been in a good mood all day. So much so that he has caused Taichi some distress.
"Dai, is something wrong? Why are you acting like this?" Taichi soon found himself asking.
"Nothing is wrong, Tai. In fact, this is the best time I have ever had. I know you think that I am still not over Hikari, but I am. I really am. I became fully not infatuated with Hikari, ever since I met . her."
"And who might this mysterious 'her' be? Who would have such a tremendous power over our poor Daisuke?"
"A blond girl who Dai saw for the first time last night." Interrupted Ken, "He believes that he is in love with her and that she is his one true love. He doesn't even know her name or talked to her."
"Dai," said Taichi, disapprovingly. "Are you sure about this? Is this not really soon after Hikari to be in love with somebody else?"
"Nobody believes me! I'll prove it to you. I'll prove that I am in love with her."
"Dai, it's alright. Now before we start a big argument about this, lets talk about the picnic for today. I invited Yamato, should we invite her sister as well?"
"Of course, Tai. What were you thinking? Both sisters must be invited." answered Sora. "Besides, Takeru Ishida seems like a real sweet girl."
"Hang on, you cannot mean that Miss Ishida's sister really is in London!" exclaimed Daisuke.
"Yes, she is, she came to our party last night. Why?" asked a confused Sora.
"Then it must be her. I fell in love with Miss Ishida's sister. It must be. I thought it looked a lot like her."
"Well at least the mysterious admiree has a name now." said Ken. "Come, let's go to Taichi's and see if we cannot find her and invite her as well."
++++++++++
"This has been a simply wonderful morning, it is so wonderful to be able to talk to you again, Yamato. However, our dear aunt is expecting me, so I must leave."
That was the first thing Daisuke heard on entering the house, said in the sweetest voice he had been fortunate enough to hear. To be followed, very soon afterwards, by a view of the beauty who has captured his attention and love, though his friends might not believe it, last night.
"Were you leaving?" Daisuke heard Taichi ask.
"Oh, yes, I am afraid so. My aunt is expecting me and I should not keep her waiting." answered Miss Takeru, turning her attention to the group.
"That is a pity for we were about to ask if you would be kind enough to be one of our party for our picnic today."
Daisuke noticed that Miss Ishida brightened at the prospect.
"I am dreadfully sorry, - "
"Oh, Takeru, can't you come?" her sister pleaded. "I am sure our aunt would not mind if you send her a note."
"Well ." said Miss Takeru, hesitantly. "I suppose it would be alright if I send her a note."
"Then it shall be done immediately." decided Taichi. "Parkins!"
"Yes, my lord?"
"Please procure some writing implements for Miss Takeru."
"Certainly, my lord."
Daisuke was happy. Not only did his love have a name now, but she was also going to the picnic. Which meant that he could get to know her more! He was so glad that Hikari decided to refuse him now, if she did not, then he would be miserable forever, knowing he could not be with his true love.
The day was looking up.

NB: The term 'mysterious admiree' is my friend's. I thought it was a cool term to use here.
