"I'll name some once you admit it!"

"Admit what!?"

"ADMITE THAT YOU WERE OUT WITH IKUTO LAST NIGHT!" Tadase panted to a stop. The once loud shouting battle became quite with those last worlds.

Amu's eyes grew wide.

How did he know? Did he see her and Ikuto? she thought. She looked down at her feet, feeling guilty. Tadase was still looking at her. She looked up, not knowing what to say.

"H-how did you know?" she stammered finally.

"How did I know? How did I know?" He smiled "Let's see.... well maybe I SAW you..." His voice trailed off...... He stepped closer to Amu and put his hand on the wall next to her. "I saw you with Ikuto..."

Amu looked up, about to say something but stopped in horror.

Tadase's eyes were shaded over. Instead of reflecting light, it seemed like they pulled it in. As she looked she had a sudden feeling that she was getting pulled into those reddish black eyes, almost as if they were a black whole dampened with blood. She couldn't look away. All breath was sucked out of her, her eyes started tearing from being open so wide for so long.

There was something wrong with Tadase. He was acting strange, act weird.... really weird.

Suddenly, Tadase's eyes grew bigger and light reflected again, he looked horrified. By this sudden change, Amu too was jolted awake.

Tadase stepped back, putting his hand on his mouth and looking sick. His horrified expression suddenly turned into a look of understanding. The type of look that you'll get if you just found out a ghost was behind you. He turned and ran, bag swinging behind him, leaving Amu panting heavily, leaning on the brick wall of the zoo.

She sank to the ground. "I.... OH GEEZ!" Tears poured out of Amu's eyes. The characters flouted up to try to comfortable her. "I was so scared! That.... it... he wasn't Tadase! He was like a different person! It wasn't it wasn't.... it... wasn't." she burst out in a new batch of tears..... The charas looked even more worried.

"Why are you crying?"

Amu looked up startled and a bit embarrassed. It was Rima.

"You look ugly like that. Keep your normal face on."

Amu couldn't help it. She leapt up and hugged Rima in what one will call a bear hug. She kept crying. Not knowing why.

Rima noticed her face was a bit pale, and after the first big jolt of energy in the bear hug, it loosened into practily nothing. Amu was almost leaning on Rima for support. All energy was gone. Sucked up maybe?

Not flinching, but blushing a little Rima asked "Are you sick?"

"I might be…… I should go home."

Rima looked at her in a wondering gaze. But she decided it was better to let Amu keep her secrets… even though they made her cry. Rima felt that she was in no position to help or stick her nose into Amu's problems. She'll just cheer her through it.

"Come on then."

Amu followed Rima to they're table. "Amu's sick so she's going home."

Kukai looked surprised. "What seriously!?" he complained "Tadase was feeling sick too! What have you two been up to?"

"They probably ate some bad thing. Look I'll call a taxi to take Amu out." Rima took out her cell phone while leading Amu to the street. The cell phone wasn't needed, there was already many taxi cabs waiting to take tired tourist home. Amu got into one. Rima talked for a moment with the driver, and handed over some money. Then turned to Amu. "I hope you'll get better soon. I'll see you Monday ok?"

Amu managed a smile. "Thanks Rima."

Rima smiled too. Don't worry Amu. It'll all be ok."

"Yeah."
