'Put a check on Humor, Tai.' Sora said as she saw Hikari giggling multiple times in the last few minutes.
'Just because she's giggling doesn't mean that Takeru is funny.' Tai said.
'So you're saying she's mentally insane – for she is giggling for no reason if Takeru is not cracking some joke.' Sora stated. Tai paused for a few moments. He grunted and marked Humor. Sora grinned.
Takeru and Hikari walked into the café.
'Should we go in? Or do you think they'll see us?' Sora said. Tai was silent for a moment as if he was thinking. 'We'll go in, but sit at a table where it's hard for them to see us but easy for us to see them.'
Sora nodded and the two went into the store. The spotted a table on the other side of the café with plants covering them. They could easily look through the plants to see the couple.
Sora pointed to find that Tai was already making his way there. She shrugged and took a seat there.
'What would you like for today?' The waiter asked. Tai was intently looking at the table Hikari and Takeru were sitting at. Sora sighed and said, 'We'll just have two glasses of water.'
The waiter smiled and nodded. He walked away.
A teenage boy looking around the same age as Takeru and Hikari came up to the Takari couple's table.
'Hi Hikari!' The boy said. He turned to Takeru and lowered his tone a bit, 'Takeru…'
'Um… hello Seiya.' Hikari and Takeru said.
The boy turned to Hikari, 'I was wondering if… after this… if you could to go the park with me?'
Taichi blinked. 'Did he just ask Hikari out?' Sora opened her mouth in disbelief. That Seiya kid must be dense. Couldn't he see that Takeru and Hikari were on a date? Tai balled his fist in frustration.
He groaned.
'Wouldn't you usually jump up and attack the kid?' Sora said. Tai shook his head. 'Yes… but I want to see Takeru's reaction.'
Takeru tilted his head to the side. He was a bit angry. No, he was furious. But he had to stay calm. He sighed and looked toward Hikari.
Hikari smiled sweetly to the boy. 'I'm sorry, but I'm going to walk around the city with Takeru…' She took Takeru's hand and intertwined it with her own.
'Oh, then how about tomorrow?' The boy continued.
'Geez, that boy is dense.' Tai said.
'Well… um, I'm going out with Takeru tomorrow.' Hikari said hoping that he got what she meant.
The boy shifted his feet uncomfortably. He finally understood. 'Oh, I'm sorry…' He shuffled out of the café quickly. He was blushing.
'Why is it that I always end up being followed around by boys?' Hikari whined as the boy left. She crossed her arms and laid her head down on top of them. Takeru grinned. 'Maybe it's because you're beautiful – on the inside and out.'
Hikari smiled.
'That should count for patience – because Takeru didn't explode when the boy… um asked Hikari out right in front of him. It should also count for Care because of what he said.' Sora said.
Tai nodded and checked the two boxes.
Then, Daisuke strolled in the café. He grinned as he saw Takeru and Hikari. He spotted Sora and Taichi also. 'Hi Takeru, Hikari, S-' He stopped as he saw Taichi and Sora shaking their heads no while moving their hand back and forth toward their neck. He nodded and smiled toward the Takari couple.
He walked over and set his hands on the table, leaning on it. Hikari and Takeru smiled at him. 'What's up?' Takeru said.
Daisuke shrugged. 'Just waiting for someone…' The he smiled slyly. Hikari and Takeru raised an eyebrow. 'It's a girl, isn't it?' Takeru said grinning. Daisuke nodded. 'Ah, so you're over Hikari so quickly, huh?' Takeru teased. Hikari glared at Takeru and kicked him under the table.
Daisuke smirked. 'Well, I can't compete with you.'
Takeru, Hikari, and Daisuke laughed. 'Well, I'm going to go take a seat and wait for my date.' Daisuke said popping in a few mints. Hikari and Takeru waved him off.
Daisuke approached Taichi and Sora's table and gave them a questioning look. Sora simply sighed and pointed toward Taichi. 'Well… we're spying on Takeru to see if he is good enough for Hikari.' Tai explained.
Daisuke chuckled. 'Taichi, think practically. This is Takeru.' 'That's exactly what I said!' Sora said. 'But all Taichi can say is 'It's better to be safe than sorry.'' She mimicked Taichi's tone of voice. Tai rolled his eyes.
Daisuke shrugged. 'Have fun. But do think of Hikari's happiness.' He walked off.
