Karel and Amu was drinking the smoothie, he noticed Amu keep glancing at another table.

"Is everything okay?" Karel asked. Amu snapped out of her thought, and nodded. But she continued glancing, which made Karel to turn around. He saw a boy looking at them.

"Who's that?" Karel asked.

Amu coughed, "He's my ex-boyfriend, Hiro."

"Ex-boyfriend?" Karel repeated, Amu nodded. Hiro started walking toward their table.

"Hi Amu!" he said.

"HI." Amu stated.

"May I ask who is he? A friend of yours? Your new boyfriend?" Hiro full of jealousy questioned.

"It's none of your business. He's a friend of mine. His name is Karel." Amu stated.

"Hi, you must be Hiro, Amu's ex-boyfriend." Karel stated, his voice fill with annoy.

"Yeh. Nice to meet you Karel." Hiro stated. Amu sense the silent awkward.

"Umm….It's time. Let's go Karel." Amu stated, as they were about to leave but Hiro stopped them.

"What do you want?" Amu asked.

"Nothing. I was wondering if I could join you guys." Hiro smirked.

"Um…." Karel was about to agree. But another person interrupted.

"Leave her alone, Hiro." Two voices came. It was Yamato and Tusk. Tusk had an unhappy face, because Amu skipped her chores again.

"She need to go back and do her chore." Tusk stated. Amu smiled sheepishly. 'I'm doom' she said in her head.

"Well. See you next time Amu-chan!" Karel waved and left. Amu nodded. They got each other phone number already so it should be fine.

"Let's go Amu." Yamato stated. Amu nodded. She followed Tusk and Yamato home. Hiro couldn't stop them, but inside him, he was still having feelings for Amu. He sighed and went home.

Back at the treehouse….
