Another chapter. It took me a while thanks to finals. HOWEVER! here it is. I hope you like their take in the mess. The next chapter in my head is awesome, and I hope it will be awesome in print, too.

ENJOY!! =)

When Kari came home, dropped her book bag on the floor, and made a beeline for the couch, she didn't know it would end with her locking the door to the room she shared with Tai. Tai asked her how her day was. It was a simple question. She gave him a simple answer.

"Classes were boring, spent most of the time with Yolei. She was still fuming over Ken."

When Tai scoffed and mumbled to himself as to how Yolei was ridiculous, Kari's day became more interesting. If it wasn't for going through the same debate before with Davis, Kari might have been more civil about it.

"I don't understand why you penalize Yolei for being upset when Ken is deliberately trying to hurt her," she stated, catching Tai off guard. Picking up the remote, Kari decided to see what was on tv before starting her homework.

Tai didn't let it go. When Kari said her part, he stopped dead in his tracks, turning around and staring at her, his mouth wide enough to catch a small animal if he stood still enough. Then, he spoke.

"You are about as crazy as she is."

The TV turned off.

"Excuse me?" Kari asked, kneeling on the couch so she could watch Tai while he explained.

Tai didn't know what to say. He looked around, as if the walls would guide him into a scenario that doesn't involve arguing with his sister about something so foolish.

Still. He had to throw in his word. "Well, from what I heard--"

Kari interrupted, "From Ken, I'm guessing."

"--was that Yolei showed up somewhere she wasn't invited, dressed in an outfit that only Mimi seems decent to wear in public. And when Yolei isn't getting the reaction she wants from a guy that isn't interested in her anymore, she pitches a fit and storms out." Tai paused for a bit, then added, "but, I mean, I wasn't there."

He might have not been looking for an argument, but Kari gave him one. A long one at that. It lasted until dinner, then continued after. Tai was an insensitive jerk. Kari just took Yolei's side because they were both females.

Neither of them knew what really happened, but they were both willing to fight for what they believed.

Kari also happened to believe that Tai was not allowed into their room.

Tai didn't.

Kari won that fight.

Please review.
