"Hikari..look..i'm so sorry that I didn't tell you before," he said as she kept looking at the wall.

"You know..when you came into the house you didn't tell me nothing," she said still facing the wall feeling a little

betrayed.

"Because we were arguing about Rema...I wanted to tell you but you wouldn't talk," he said pleading his case with

her.

"Why didn't you tell me when we made up?" she asked now facing Takeru with tears.

"Believe me..I was but thats when Tai called," he replied trying to get closer to her.

"How did you see him?" she askedwiping the tears away from her eyes and he gave out a little sigh befoe answering.

"Before I came home that day to check on you I stopped by the diner to pick up my check," he started off then stopping

to make contact with her eyes then continued on," He came in and saw me and he came up to me..."

...

Flashback at the diner...

Takeru stood at the counter waiting for his boss to return with his check but still was worrying about Hikari and how

she was acting towards him today.'I don't know whats wrong Hikari but I will figure it out,' Takeru said to himself while

staring off into space and then felt someone tap on his shoulders bringing him out of his deep thoughts. Takeru turned

around to see Mr. Yagami standing behind him and he looked as though he hadn't slept in days.

"Hi Takeru," he said clearing his throat a little.

"Hi Mr. Yagami," Takeru replied a little freaked out because this was the first time he ever seen him since Hikari had

gotten pregnant.

"So how are you?" he asked as he began pulling out a cigarette from inside his jacket.

"Good sir," Takeru replied not knowing if he should run or not.

"Can we sit down," he said not really asking him but telling him and Takeru obliged. After finding a table Mr.Yagami

pulled out his lighter that looked as if it had his initials carved in snd it was shiny silver. Takeru tapped his fingers on

the table lightly ready to take on any wrath Mr.Yagami has against him.

"Look Mr.Yagami...I know that you are pretty dissappointed with me and Hikari ..but I want you to know that-" Takeru

stared but Tom put his hand up.

"Yes I am dissappointed..and I know you will take care of her...I trust you," he said flat out lighting up the cigarette

and taking a puff of it.

"Thankyou sir...I will do anything for her," said Takeru starting to relax in the presance of Mr.Yagami.

"When she started dating you she changed..but in a good way..somehow before she was dating you she never really

too much showed her feelings..I know she would tell you but not us..but somehow you reached her in a way me and

her mother couldn't have..thankyou for that," Tom said puffing the cigarette.

"Listen Mr.Yagami..Hikari thinks highly of you and she loves you..she talks about you everyday..and I hope i'm a good

enough father to my child as you are to Hikari...I hope I will be as good as you someday...I admire you in so many

ways sir," Takeru said as Tom looked at him with amazement in his eyes.

"I said the same thing to my father..you know he gave me this lighter when I was 18..it was his..i'm giving it to Tai at the right time," he said softly.

"Mr.Yagami...I love your daughter so much that it kills me to see her hurt," Takeru said as Tom put out his cigarette.

"Don't worry about her mom...things have been hectic around there way before Hikari had gotten pregnant," said Tom

placing the lighter on the table.

"I just hate to see her and her mom at each other," said Takeru scratching his head as Tom looked at his watch.

"I know..umm...I have to go..i'll see you around Takeru," Tom said while getting up and he and Takeru shook hands.

"Yes sir," Takeru replied and Tom walked out the diner. Takeru then noticed that Mr.Yagami left his cherished lighter on

the table and tried to call after him but he didn't hear Takeru.'Oh well..i'll give it to him when I get my check' he thought

to himself while getting up from the table walking over to the front counter. About ten minutes later Takeru walked out

of the diner with his check in hand but with one thing on his mind, to return Mr.Yagami's lighter. The apartment wasn't

far from the diner where Takeru worked. Going up the flight of stairs Takeru felt strange for some reason and didn't

know why he did. He then heard some kind of noise coming from back down the flight of stairs. Being Takeru he rushed

back down the stairs to see if anyone needed help or something. All of a sudden Takeru placed his back to the wall

when he saw a figure running away quickly and his heart began to race hoping the figure didn't see him and luckily

they didn't.Takeru then heard footsteps and then a loud scream so Takeru peered around the corner to see a woman

stand over a body that wasn't moving and he quickly realised that it was Mr.Yagami. Takeru quickly held both hands up

to his mouth to suppress a loud cry and quickly turned on his heels and ran. 'Oh no! thhis can't be real' he thought to

himself while running home.

end flashback

"I just ran all the way home and when I came in you were mad and didn't want to talk to me. Believe me Hikari I tried

to tell you but you bombarded me with acusations that I was messing around with Rema. I'm so sorry I..I really am,"

he finished and she wiped a tear from her eyes.

"I..I forgive you," she said sitting up as he felt a wave of relief sweep his heart.

"But..I still carry this around," he said pulling out a small object and Hikari beamed at it.

"Is that..is that my dad's lighter?" she asked as he placed it in her delicated hands.

"Yeah..like I said he wanted to give it to Tai..and I think you should do it," he said running his hands throuugh her light

brown hair.

"Thankyou Takeru...I will give it to him," she said as he leaned in to try to kiss her but stopped to see if she really

wanted it and she nodded. Takeru brought his lips to met her soft pink lips what he thought was perfect. Hikari broke

the kiss and placed a hand on her boyfriend's smiling brightly.

"You know what? no matter what that man says Tom Yagami is my father," she told him as he nodded his head in

agreement then soon realised what she had just said to him.Takeru scratched his head a little in confusion thinking he

probably heard her wrong 'of course he's her dad' he thought to himself.

"Uh..Hikari he is your dad," he said while she smiled at his expression on his face.

"Yeah he is," she said and the door to the room came opened and in popped Ms. Takaishi with flowers in her hand and

a bright smile.

"Hi..how are you feeling honey?" she asked walking over to her son and his pregnant girlfriend.

"Great once I come home and relax," Hikari replied as Nancy gave her the flowers.

"Me too," said Takeru kissing her forehead and Hikari blushed a bright shade of red.

"So when can you come home?" Nancy asked motioning Hikari to lean up so she could fluff her pillow.

"Today..because I have school in the morning..don't want to miss it," she said leaning back again into a fluffed pillow.

"Nope..you don't want that," Nancy said as she smiled to her young son and he returned the smile while holding

Hikari's hand.
