O.o And with some things going on in my life, I just totally did not have the time to update. Anyways, I'm back! Once again, I apologize for the delay! And thanks to the three people who reviewed!

- Chapter 2 -

It's been a few days since Sora last met Taichi and Yamato, and she couldn't help but feel embarrassed at the thought of those two guys seeing her eat so messily. It wasn't because she likes them or anything, it's just that it felt awkward and embarrassing to give people such an impression when you first meet. Either way, it's not like she'll see them anytime soon anyway, right? That means she probably doesn't have to worry. Wrong.

Just her luck. Her cell phone rang as she ran over to answer it. "Moshi moshi."

"Hey Sora!" the voice on the other end exclaimed excitedly. "Wanna come over? Hikari and Miyako are over … trashing my house. You've got to come and help me stop them! Now!"

Sora raised a brow at what Mimi and let out a laugh. "Why are they trashing your house? If I recall correctly, out of the four of us, you're the one most likely of doing something like that, Mimi."

Mimi paused, thinking about what Sora said before answering. "That's different … I'm not the one with relationship problems right now!"

"Relationship problems? Why? What happened?"

"Well … you see. Hikari is troubled because she doesn't know how to reject this guy call Daisuke or something, and Miyako is- AHHH! Stop it! No not that Miyako!" Mimi was cut off when Miyako knocked down Mimi's favourite set of china.

"Mimi? What happened Mimi? Are you …. okay?" Sora asked curiously, her tone of voice somewhat worried.

"Not okay … definitely not okay … Sora .. I need you to come RIGHT now! Please … before they break more of my things! NO MIYAKO! NOT THAT TOO!" Mimi screamed, hanging up quickly afterwards.

Sora sweat dropped before hanging up and grabbed her shoes, getting ready to go to her friend's house. Making her way towards Mimi's house as quickly as possible, the redhead couldn't help but wonder what's wrong with Miyako. Sure she knows that the raven-haired girl falls in love extremely easily, but nothing ever causes her to go this crazy and mad. Shaking her head, she soon noticed the apartment building Mimi lives in, and entered, waiting for the elevator.

When a small ding could be heard, and the elevator doors opened, revealing its empty interior, Sora walked in, and soon arrived at Mimi's floor. When she arrived infront of her doorway, she noticed that the door was halfway opened, and so, she stepped in, pushing open the door the rest of the way. She stopped immediately when she noticed how messy the place was. Garbage was everywhere, and there were broken pieces of glass all around the place. Not just that, but there's food and random objects all over the polished floor of Mimi's beautiful apartment.

Sora looked up, seeing Mimi trying to stop a hysterical Miyako from throwing a glass cup, while Hikari sat on the sofa, still as a rock, seemingly thinking deeply about something. "Uh … hello?" Sora said, loud enough for everyone to hear her.

Miyako stopped midway as both she and Mimi turned to look at the redhead, while Hikari didn't even react. Sora started towards the two girls and just took the cup without saying anything, and gently placed it onto a nearby table. Shaking her head, Sora grabbed onto Miyako's arm and dragged her towards the sofa, seating her down beside Hikari. She herself sat down beside her as she motioned for Mimi to come sit as well. Mimi did as she was told and sat down beside Hikari in the other side.

"Miyako …" Sora started gently, her tone of voice soft. "What's wrong?"

Miyako looked at Sora for a brief second before looking down at her hands. Then, letting out a quiet sigh, she spoke out softly, her voice cracking. "Sora … Ken and I … we … we had an argument. Then .. then …" she stopped, tears rolling down her face. "Then he told me that if I'm so unhappy about him having so many female admirers, then why don't we just break up. I got mad and told him fine! And … and … he didn't say anything and just left me there! So … I just ran off. It's been three days, and he still hasn't called me! He didn't even BOTHER trying to make up! I don't even know what happened! He never used to be like this. I know something's wrong, but … but he wouldn't tell me! And now .. I don't even know what's happening between us …" she paused and looked at Sora. "Oh Sora, I don't know what to do. I'm so mad … so … mad . that he's not doing anything! Ughhh!"

Sora said nothing as she thought for a bit, and finally gave a slight nod. "It's alright Miyako. It'll turn out fine. Don't worry about it. Try talking to him when this slows down. Maybe he just wasn't ready to tell you what's going on with him yet. Give him some time." Sora smiled slightly, and turned to Hikari. "Hikari … what's wrong?"

Miyako and Mimi both looked at Hikari as the youngest woman finally looked up at the three. "Daisuke confessed. For real this time. And he actually was serious this time too. Like, he's totally different than how he used to be. And … then there's Takeru. He STILL hasn't made any moves to tell me how he feels yet. I know he has feelings for me, yet he wouldn't tell me! Now what am I suppose to do? Make my move first? I'm a girl! I want to keep some dignity of having a guy confess first, don't I?"

Sora looked at the girl as she blinked, and finally, let out a slight laugh. "Hikari, sometimes … girls just need to tell the guy how she feels. You know … some guys just don't have the guts." She grinned. "Come on Hikari, if you really do like him, then just tell him! It's better than you sitting around wondering what to do. Plus, that would put Daisuke off your case … at least I hope so." She gave out another small laugh. "Takeru probably just isn't positive if your feelings. You know how you two can be sometimes."

Hikari looked at Sora as she managed a slight smile. "I guess …" she paused. "Thanks Sora."

Sora shook her head slightly with a warm smile. Mimi smiled as she turned to look at Sora. "Oh my god, Sora! You're brilliant! You got them to stop! Now you can help us clean up my apartment before my parents come home!" she exclaimed with a grin.

Sora looked at her with a raised brow as she sighed. "I knew it …"

Mimi said nothing as she just grinned.

After a few hours or cleaning up, Sora collapsed on the couch, exhausted. "This is the last time I'm EVER cleaning your house for you, Mimi. Your apartment's HUGE!" she frowned, shaking her head.

Mimi laughed as she sat down beside Sora. "You can go take a shower if you want. I have clothes. Lots of them in fact."

"Good idea!" With that, the redhead ran off in the direction of the bathroom. Entering it quickly and locking the door, she took her clothes off as she started taking a quick shower. Comfortable. Comfortable indeed.

For some reason though, she thought she heard a small clicking noise coming from just outside the bathroom door. She didn't know what, but one thing for sure, she didn't like it. Getting suspicious and curious, she grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her just in case, shutting the water off. Slowly reaching for the curtain's edge, she pulled it open quickly to reveal the three girls with one of those instant picture cameras. A flash caught Sora's eyes as she turned her head, bring her arms up to cover her body and face, even though she has a towel wrapped around.

When Sora turned back to look at the girls, she gasped when the picture came out. Before anyone could see it, the three girls ran out holding the picture, waiting for it to develop. Sora chased the three, and eventually found them at the porch, still waiting for the picture to show clearly. Right when it was done, before any of the girls had the time to take a good look at the prank they just played, Sora reached out and hit Mimi's arm, not too hard, nor too soft, just enough to get her to let go of the picture, and she did. Unfortunately, Mimi's hand was held midair out of the porch, and so … the picture fell downwards out of the apartment. Sora screamed as she leaned on the handrail and looked down. She watched as the picture landed inside a bag that belonged to someone's. A male's, that's for sure. For some reason though, the bag located on that porch looked extremely familiar. She couldn't figure out why, but it just did.

"Oh no …" she groaned, then quickly turned to Mimi and the other two with narrowed eyes. "What did you do that for! Ahhhh!" she screamed as she started pulling her hair, frustrated. "What will the person think when he SEES that picture in his BAG! Huh! Huh! HUH! Tell me! Argh!"

Hikari sweat-dropped as she glanced sideways at Miyako and Mimi. "Did she forget that I live under you Mimi? That I live in that apartment?" she whispered.

Miyako laughed after hearing what Hikari said, which caused Sora to stop her tantrum and glare at the three. "What!"

Hikari grinned before answering. "Sora … I live under Mimi, remember? My family just moved in two days ago?"

Sora blinked as she immediately jumped up with a smile. "Oh right! Let's go get that picture now then!"

Hikari's grin disappeared as she shook her head slightly. "Sorry, but I can't now."

Sora looked at Hikari as she blinked a few times. "What! Why!"

"Well …" Hikari started. "because the bag's gone now."

"What!" Sora quickly looked back down the porch below them as she screamed again. "Where did it go? Where did it go? Nooooo!"

Hikari laughed nervously as Sora turned to glare at her once again. "Umm … my brother has soccer practice today … and … he probably just left. And well … that was his bag. Heheh …"

Sora looked at Hikari as she froze. "You're … kidding …"

Hikari shook her head slightly with a nervous smile.

"Now what am I going to do? I can't let your brother see that picture … I don't even KNOW what's shown in it! Ahh!"

"Umm … maybe he won't notice the picture …!" Hikari said, trying to look on the bright side.

Sora looked at Hikari. "Right … like that'll happen." She sighed as she slowly walked into Mimi's room to get changed.

A few minutes later, Sora dashed out with a frightened look. "Oh no! Hikari … is your brother's name by any chance … Taichi!"

Mimi looked at Sora before turning to Hikari. "Taichi's your brother? I never knew that …"

Hikari blinked as she just gave a slight nod. "You two know my brother?"

Sora said nothing as she yelled out a loud "NO!" and ran out of the apartment, heading straight for the soccer field.

The others just stayed seated on the couch, wondering where Sora decided to go off to.

Author's Note: Finally done. I did not proofread this, merely because I really don't have the time to do so right now. I'm really supposed to be doing my summative assignment for Philosophy right now … heh. Anyways, please read and review everyone!
