CHAPTER FOUR---Yumi's Choice
''Yumi?'' Ami,still badly hurt,asked as she walked outside of the theater,where Yumi was. ''Are you okay?''
Yumi looked at her and saw how beat-up she was. She couldn't stand it. She ran off in shame. Ami called after her,but she was already gone.
Yumi kept on running until she tripped. When she got up,she noticed a run-down cafe across the street. Thinking that no one would find her there,she went in.
Yumi got a hot chocolate and sat down at one of the tables. She didn't know it,but Lori was sitting at the table next to her's.
Lori looked and saw Yumi sitting there,moping. Although she didn't know the seriousness of the situation,she knew what Yumi was so upset about. She wanted to talk to her,but (wisely) decided to leave her alone.
Yumi looked over at the other table and noticed Lori. ''Ummm...hey.'' She said. Lori turned around in surprise.
''I'm sorry about what happened.''
Lori's eyes lit up. Her hero was talking to her!
''I'm sorry too.'' She said.
''What do you have to be sorry for?''
''For thinking that you were perfect. You're my hero,you know.''
Yumi was speechless. She had no idea what to say;she simply put her hand on Lori's shoulder. Surprised and happy,Lori hugged her. Yumi smiled.
A few minutes later,Yumi looked out the window and saw Ami walking around outside,calling for her. I'd better go out there,she thought,but...she'll never forgive me for this. I almost KILLED her,after all...and for no good reason. I don't know what got into me,but I DO need her,she looked out the window again,and she needs me...I've got to apologize to her. NOW. She left the cafe.
A/N: I will allow constructive criticism,but flame me and you're as dead as a doorknob.
