-Yagami Residence, 4:00 PM-

Taichi, you moron! Just a little longer and Sora could've killed you…

While walking his bike towards his house, Taichi thought of the consequences that could happen when Sora found out… that he was a Youtuber who composes music. She would've been shocked. But then again, she wouldn't be angry at him. Being a Youtuber isn't wrong. Instead, she'd be angry for not telling her and the rest of the digidestined about it…

Main Str. isn't that far off from his school, so he always takes his bike to go there. But now he has to go home. Which means his mom will scold him again.

He knows his mom's favorite is Kari, so he doesn't blame her for getting angry at him for being late from detention. Or the fact that he skipped soccer practice to finish the recording. The last person he needed to be talking to is one of his teammates who are all very close to him.

He opened the apartment door to see his mom, hands on her hips.

"Taichi . . ." Yuuko Yagami scorned, her hazelnut eyes shining for a chance to punish whomever did wrong.

"Sorry, mom.. I-"

"You skipped practice again, for the fourth time this year! How can you be captain of the soccer team if you don't even go to your own practices?!" His mom yelled. Tai flinched.

"Well, they'll find somebody to replace me, I had something else to do…" Tai thought back of when he decided to compose music on the piano instead of going to practice. It started out when Mimi tried to get the truth out of him and he snapped . . .he really needs to control his temper.

"I can't believe you. You used to be so . . .dedicated! You'd even forget about your homework just to go and practice. Maybe your so-called friends are starting to become a bad influence on you unlike your sister!"

And for the first time in all his life, Taichi lost all control of his emotions.

"NO!"

The whole room was quiet. Hikari walked out of her room.

Taichi clenched his fists.

"This has nothing to do with my friends, mom! And they're not my so-called friends; they're my real friends!"

"Yagami Taichi, how dare you-"

"And why do you always compare me with Kari?" As soon as he said that, his tears started to come up in his eyes.

"She's an angel ever since she was born and I gave birth to her, unlike you who caused just enough trouble in our-"

"Mom?" Hikari walked towards her mother.

Taichi continued. He pointed at Hikari.

"She's an angel? Yes, I agree that she is sweet and innocent, but you don't have to compare her to an angel! What about me? Am I just a mistake to you? Actually nevermind about that; why did you even raise me when you could've just sent me to the nearest orphanage? Why do you always call her an ANGEL and me the devil, the one who ruins everything? Why do you pay attention to her more?!"

Hikari trembled as she spoke hearing her brother's words.

"Tai-"

"I have one question for you… Do your love Hikari more than me? Do you? DO YOU?!"

His mom was shocked as soon as she heard those words. At this point, Taichi's tears were flowing down his face unstoppable. He was glad that he finally let those words out. Even Hikari started started crying.

After a long empty silence, Taichi finally spoke again, with more tears in his eyes.

"I'm sorry I let my jealousy take over me, Hikari-san, but I can't keep it anymore. I love you with all my heart. It's just that... you deserve a better older brother than I could ever be."

Taichi ran back into his room, jumped on his bed, and cried. He didn't care now, he just wanted to let it all out. He sacrificed his entire chance of getting love just to make his sister and loved ones happy. A small part of him wants to take it all back, but he refused to even though it gets harder every single day. He would admit no matter the situation . . .if it was him or the world, he would sacrifice himself. He's not worth living after all . . .

. . .is he?
