Thoughts of the Children
 
Ch. II: Matt Ishida
 
Whenever you see me walk around, I bet you thought that I looked cool and confident, but, for real, my life was nothing but hectic when I was younger. T.K. and I got separated because of a divorce, and Dad was just busy all day, all night. I'm not sure if he realized it, but because of all this, I just felt completely alone and cold.
 
Sometimes, it made me quite nervous whenever I go outside. And whenever I saw siblings and parents walking together, gossiping together, I just couldn't help, but feel very jealous inside.
 
Then, when my brother and I got to the Digital World along with five others, I acted like some jerk, trying to control what T.K. was doing. I'm not sure anybody would've believed me, but the reason behind all this was because I was terrified; terrified because I just wanted to keep T.K. safe and happy, even though my actions didn't show it.
 
And that gets me very frustrated, and sometimes when I fought Tai, it was just to vent the frustration out of me. At first, I thought it was good for me, but through it all, I was just acting stupid.
 
Later, when I separated myself from the team, I never realized that I was the one who was being selfish and pitiful, and Gabumon helped me recognize that and gave me the confidence to support my friends, family and my brother. Now, I plan on changing my past and grow up to become a better man than I've ever been.
 
My friends and this trip made me realize that. Thank you, everyone, for making me change to who I am today.
