"Mimi is pregnant?" Tai asked. "Tai you not supposed to know this." Sora said to him. "Oh so you were keeping it secret from me then?" he asked not angry or anything he was just disappointed cause she did tell him sooner. "Tai…Mimi swore to me not to tell you cause she figured you tell Matt by mistake like what I just did with you." Sora said to him.
"Okay so you slapped Matt because of what Mimi had told you?" he questioned. "Yeah…Tai she was so upset that about the one night when we all had dinner here and we left. Do you remember that?" she asked. "Okay yeah I do actually." He replied.
"Right so when we left Matt had gotten into something about missing his friendship with you…and Mimi said that he wouldn't understand her and stuff and she kept on mentioning that Matt didn't care about her…. she told me at one point that she said Matt only used her for sex…and that's what was really getting me angry." She said.
"Oh man…what has Matt been doing to her?" Tai asked. "I have no Idea…hey can you talk to him…your best friends right." Sora asked. "Well yeah I could." He said. "But don't you say a word about her being pregnant." Sora told Tai. "What happens if I accidentally tell him?" he asked Sora thought for a moment. "Well maybe we could tell him." She said to Tai.
"I won't accidentally tell him I'll be careful don't worry….we should wait till the coast is clear and tell him until then …I'll just um…. test the waters as it would be called." He replied. "Okay then." Tai opened the door and let Sora walk through.

Matt held onto his sore cheek, Kari was up preparing Matt an Icepack. She handed him the pack and he applied to his cheek. "What ever you did it must have been really bad. For her to slap you that hard." TK replied. Matt grimaced. "How bad is it?" Matt asked.
Kari and TK both looked at his cheek "It's okay not too bruised." She replied. "I don't like the sound of that TK get a mirror." He asked, "Here use my compact." Kari said she went into a drawer and handed him it.
"Oh man! That's more then a little bit bruised you guys!" Matt whined annoyed. He looked at he-swollen cheek that was starting to turn purple. "What am I supposed to say to my boss when I come into work tomorrow?" he asked TK and Kari both shrugged. "You can say the truth." TK suggested. "What my best friend's wife slapped me across the face? No way." He said he held on to the ice pack.
"Okay fine. I don't see the problem here." TK replied. "I'm not going to WORK with this! And saying that Sora slapped me across the face!" he shouted at his brother. "Please Matt! There are three 10 year's running around here it's bad enough you said the f word." Kari told him.
"Well excuse me, if it hurt." He said. "Okay don't take it out on Kari Matt." TK told him.
****************
Mimi sat on her bed she rocked herself she was crying to herself. She picked up her phone and dialed her parent's house.
"Hello Tachikawa residence." Her mother sounded on the phone cheerfully. "Mama…can I come over?" she asked, her voice was shaky. "Oh sweetie of course you can…. what's wrong?" her mother asked. "I just want to come over okay?" she asked her. "Okay well…just be careful." She told her daughter. "I will bye, I'll see you in a little second. Okay." She replied, they both nodded and hung the phone up.
Madison listened at the door carefully making sure no one was coming then returned to listening to Mimi talking to her mother on the phone she smiled. 'Oh so she's going to her mothers…well I guess I can follow her then.' She thought.
There was some moving in the room and then a window opened up. 'Oh she's sneaking out' she thought…Madison went down the stairs where she ran into Tai and Sora. "Oh Madison what are you going at this time?" Tai asked her. "I have to go out and get some necessities for myself." She said. "Oh…Okay." He said, the he put his arm around his wife and walked her to the kitchen.
Madison put on her shoes and jacket on and went out the door.
………………
Tai and Sora enter the kitchen Matt watch Sora angrily. "Oh hi Sora…did you come back to whack my other cheek might as well have two bruises instead of one." he asked scarcity. "Shut up." She told him the two glared at each other.
"Okay lets not fight." Kari said. Sora nudged Tai to go and talk to Matt. "Hey um Matt can I talk to you for a second." Tai asked him, he nodded. "Okay as long as I don't get punched out. Then yeah." He replied. Sora came to sit next to Kari. Tai walked out the door and Matt followed him.
*************
Tai's house…..
"Okay so what do you want to do huh? Punch me out right?" he questioned irritated "No one's going to punch you out. What's your problem?" Tai asked him. "You saw it I don't have to remind you what Sora did do I?" he questioned. "Look I know your mad and all but she was angry cause Mimi was feeling sad and upset." Tai explained.
"She talked to Mimi did she…. well like I said Mimi won't open up to me." Matt told him. "What did Sora get out of Mimi?" he asked.
"Mimi said a lot of bad things about you…she tired to defend you in front of Mimi but…." He stopped. "What Tai what did she say?" he asked. "Mimi said and I quote…you don't like her and all you think of her is for sex." He replied.
"I don't think that how can she think that! I love her." Matt cried. "I don't know either, but I'd like to know too." Tai asked. "Tai…help me out here…. she's been acting like this for a week or 2 and I don't know what's wrong with her." he replied.
'Man, he really is lost as to what's wrong with Mimi.' The thought… 'She must be scared to tell him she's pregnant.' He thought. Matt watched Tai in his thought. "Tai! You know something don't you?" Matt asked him. "No I don't Matt." He replied.
"Can I ask you something? Just a rhetorical question, what if Mimi was pregnant?" Tai asked. "SHE'S PREGNANT!!" he cried. Tai raised his hands up "No I said rhetorical question Matt. What if she was." He replied.
"I don't know…" he trailed off. "Well would you be angry at her if she was?" Tai questioned. "No….I wouldn't." he replied. "Are you sure cause you shouted pretty loudly a few seconds ago." Tai told him.
"I would be scared okay! I don't know how to handle a baby…I'm not a perfect father like you are." Matt replied. "You don't have to be the perfect Matt…and there is no way I'm a perfect father I've done some dumb things just ask Sora. And beside I wasn't even ready when Sora told me she was pregnant." Tai replied. "But that was different Tai you two were teenagers then, you weren't married." He said.
"Okay well…never mind that teenager stuff that's history." Tai said to him. "Okay so is this talk over?" Matt asked him. "Um…yeah I guess." Tai replied Matt hurried by him and out the door going back to the main house. "Hey were are you going?" Tai called to him. "To find my wife." He called back to him; Tai shrugged and followed him back to his mother's house.

"Okay your turn Davis." Mina said to him. He slowly crawled over to the computer. "It's about time." He replied and stood up. "You didn't have to wait that long Davis." Saria said. "Well it seemed like it." He replied back.
"This was my dad's room. Did you know that?" Saria said to both of them. "Really?" the both asked. "Yeah…that's what he said." She replied.
"And now it's a Computer Room now?" Mina asked. "Yup." She replied. "Cool" Davis said from the computer. "So Saria are you okay about the school thing now?" Davis asked.
"Yeah…I just sock the girls who did make fun of me." She said. Saria got up and got a piece of paper and pen from the desk. She then came back to seat down next to Mina. "What are you planning to do with that?" Mina asked. "I'm planning revenge." She replied.
"Revenge?" Davis dropped all he was doing and sat next to her. "What kind of revenge?" he asked eagerly waiting for some info. "You guys you can't just start looking for revenge now." Mina complained. "If you not in your against." Davis said. "Right." Saria said to her.
"There my friends too, I can't go against them." She said. "Mina….do you have any Idea what me and Davis went through! They teased us beyond…I don't know but I want to get back at them." Saria said Davis nodded with her. "I agree with her." he said.
"Okay fine it appears that you two want to be alone with your devious plans, I'm calling my mother. Bye." She headed down stairs.
"She's too scared, to go out on limb and help us with our come back plan." Davis said. "Tell me about it." She said they both sighed. And got to work on a good comeback plan.
***************
Mimi drove to her parent's house, she put the radio on and was listening to music. "Am I doing the right thing?" she questioned herself. "Should I go ahead with the abortion? Without Matt knowing." She asked herself again she sighed. And kept driving. 'Matt wouldn't want a child yet he won't care. Any ways' She thought. Mimi was too busy in thought as she was driving she hadn't noticed that a car was following her.
Brittany watched followed her… "I don't think she realizes I'm following her." she thought out loud. Still watching Mimi's car carefully.
**************
"Mimi are you in there?" Matt questioned, he waited for a while and got no answer. "Mimi?" he questioned. He turned the doorknob on the door but it was locked. He sighed confused he knocked on the door. "Mimi are you in there?" he asked once more. Matt walked back down stairs. "Hey Tai don't you got the key for my room?" he asked.
"You got to ask the maid on duty." He said, Matt rolled his eyes 'thanks for the help.' He thought. Matt began his search for a pair of keys.
……………..
Sora rocked Li back and forth, everyone was in the living room when Tai's mom and dad had came home. "Good evening kids." They said coming in. "Hi mother." Kari said. They all greeted Tai's parents.
"Sora, how are you darling." Anna asked she kissed her daughter in-law on both of her cheeks. "Okay thank you." She said. Tai gasped. "Oh no Sora…I forgot about your special dinner I was going to make." He said a little upset. "It's okay Tai…." She replied and looked down at the floor, Tai felt so guilty. 'Oh I'm so sorry Sora.' He thought.
Kari stood up went to sit next to Sora. "Hey…what's wrong?" she asked quietly. "Nothing…Kari could you take Li for a second." Sora asked her. "Okay sure." She replied, Sora handed Li to Kari and she quickly left the room going up the stairs. Tai watched her go…he knew she was upset about Maiko. "Excuse me guys." Tai said he followed Sora's path up the stairs.
The four watched Tai go up stairs. "I'd knew how I felt when Kari was sick.. She almost died…" Anna said to everyone. "Mother it was long time ago." Kari replied. "I know and you're safe and sound and going to get married to a wonderful young man…but I hope Tai can help her…if him himself doesn't have a break down." She replied. "Anna your treating Tai like he was weak…emotionally." Kevin said. "No I'm not." She said to him.
TK and Kari left the room. "Sorry about them." Kari whispered. "That's okay…. I know they're concerned about Tai and Sora's emotional state." He replied, he looked at Kari as she held Li. "You know what…. when we get married in May…which still it by the way…5 months away, I'm going to whisk you away on a surprise honeymoon." He told her, Kari smiled at him. "Oh you won't hold out on me for that long would you?" she questioned.
"It all depends…. but I think keeping the honeymoon location secret will make things much more interesting." He said, he watched her with a kind of mischievous look in his eyes. "Takeru I know that look." Kari said he started to laugh. "Hey you know what I got something to do….so I'll see you later bye. Kari." He gave her a quick kiss on her cheek then went to the door Kari followed him. "Where are you going TK…. are you going to stand there and put your shoes on and ignore me?" she asked as TK actually did the following things. "I won't do that to my fiancée." He replied and kissed her once more on the other cheek this time.
"Bye, love you." Kari said to him, he left out the door.
………………
TK walked to his car when suddenly someone grabbed his arm he spun around and punched the person in face. "Oh…not my cheek." Matt moaned. "Matt? What the hell ever happened to saying calling me?" he asked… "I thought you knew it was me." Matt said holding his abused cheek. "What do you want?" he asked.
"Where's the maids house…I just came out to looked for it and I couldn't find it." Matt said. "Matt it's just down the road from Tai's house." He said. "Oh okay well thank for that information Takeru. See ya." Matt ran toward Tai's house. "Yeah bye." He said then got into his vehicle and drove out of the driveway.
"He's weird sometimes." TK said out loud as he started her car.
****************
Tai could here her crying, he closed his eyes and he softly called her "Sora?" Tai questioned as he opened door a bit and she was sitting on the bed, in an empty room. "Sora." Tai said she looked up to him and cried more, Tai closed the door behind him and went to his wife's side.
He sat down next to her and she hugged him. "Tai.." she cried on this his shirt. "Shhh….I know…it's hard." He said. "I feel so helpless Tai…I could have done something more you drove her to the hospital…I didn't do anything." She cried "Don't do that to yourself." Tai told her.
"I can't help it….I just miss my baby so much." She said, her eyes were puffy and red from crying. "Oh Sora….hey look at me." He said Sora did she looked at him. "I know how you feel…and I miss her too…but don't blame yourself." He said, Tai stroked her face gently wiping a way any trace of tears.
"I'm sorry I broke that promise about dinner." He said. "It's okay Tai…we were preoccupied by Mimi's and Matt's situation." She said, she wiped her tears and lay down on the bed. "Could you stay here with me? Tai." She asked. "Of course I will." He said to her she smiled and pulled him down, they lay together there for a while.
Sora turned to face Tai. "Hey honey do you thing we can get pregnant again?" she asked. "Another baby?" he asked. "Well yeah…I know you're probably thinking that it could replace Maiko but it won't and I know that…." She trailed off after Tai hadn't said anything. "Tai?" she asked.
He sat up looking really unsure. "You think I want one just to replace Maiko?" she asked sort of angry. "What no Sora I don't think that at all." He told her. "Then what's wrong?" she asked "Nothing Sora. You still need to see the doctor tomorrow…how about we wait till tomorrow okay." He replied, Sora still hadn't looked convinced. "You don't want to make love to me?" she asked. "No…no that's not it…I love to make love to you…. your amazing in bed." He said she blushed slightly. "Well then is there something wrong?" she asked.
"I just want to wait till tomorrow to make that decision." Tai told her, she smiled, "Okay then I'll wait to make that deisicion then." She replied.

"It's a big world Matt…. the asylum she escaped from was in Tokyo." Tai told him matter fact. "Not if she lost her sanity!" he yelled at him.

"Okay then you owe me….a 1 minute kiss starting right now." Tai said to her…Sora laughed. "What? This is serious stuff Sora." Tai replied she rolled her eyes. "Okay fine." She pulled him roughly to her and they started to make out in, the doorway.
"10 years of marriage and you two still act like newly weds." Anna told them. Tai put his hand up to his mother for a minute while he and Sora were still in lip lock.
They separated as Sora was gasping for air. "Okay ……go….." Sora pushed him out the door. "I'm going Sora you didn't have to push me that's kind of rude." Tai replied pretending to sulk. "Oh please…" Anna said "Just go."
