Tai was driving his car for no where he didn't know where to go he just kept driving 'Why? Why can't I take her out of my head? I'm fine without her...yes much fine...she is only a crying spoiled baby...yes she doesn't suit me...I can find better one than her no I can find million better than her' he thought upset

He just realized he was driving 200 km/hour and in front of him is an old lady he shocked

Tai: Ow no

He stepped on the break hard the old lady didn't move an inch finally the car had stopped he was breathing hard he quickly get out from the car and went near the old lady

Tai: Are you ok lady?

The old lady was upset she slapped Tai's face he shocked and looked at her putting his hand on his cheek

"You have to wake up and open your eyes while you are driving...think about yourself at least about all the people who love you and are waiting for you to come back to them? Man what a crazy guy driving in this crazy speed"

She walked away Tai was still in his place

Tai: All the...people who love me and are waiting for me?

Flash back,

Tai entered his apartment but before closing the door he saw Dawn is coming toward him and hugged him crying

Tai winked many times: What is it Dawn?

Dawn: Don't do this to me again?

Tai: What did I do?

Dawn looked up at him: I saw you...I saw you driving in a crazy speed...ow gosh what if you get hurt...think about me think about all the people who love you and are waiting for you

End flash back,

Tai parked his car in his apartment building underground parking he lay back on the car seat

Tai: Dawn...tell me why? Why can't I stop thinking about you? Why can't I forget you like how you forget me? Why can't I go on in my life without you like how you go in your life without me?

Suddenly he starts hitting the wheel hard angry

Tai: DAMN IT DAMN IT

Meanwhile, Italy,

Dawn and her parents were having good time in a restaurant but Dawn was so sad to even notice what was going on around her she looked at the locket she was wearing some tears fall on it 'Taichi'

Flash back,

Dawn was looking outside through the window at the beautiful white snow

Dawn happily: What a beautiful view...

Then she saw a locket in front of her then rested on her chest she looked behind her and saw Tai was smiling

Tai: Happy anniversary sweetheart

Dawn felt her eyes start to be wet from the tears he didn't forget she turned and holds his hands

Dawn: You didn't forget

Tai: How can I forget the most important date in my whole life?

Dawn's tears came down on her cheeks he wiped her tears

Tai: Come let me show it to you

He took her to the mirror still holding her hand she looked at it, it was beautiful crystal locket written on it her name she smiled

Dawn: So beautiful I love it so much

He kissed her head: Glad to hear that

He turned her then kissed her on her lips

End of flash back,

Dawn stands up her parents looked at her

Yuko: Where are you going sweetie?

Dawn: To the restroom...excuse me

She quickly left to the restroom Yuko looked down sadly

Yuko: I thought by bringing her here she may forget her pain but I think we made it even worse

Omy puts his hand on his wife's shoulder: Don't worry honey...I believe in her and in Taichi as well...let's leave them decide what the right to do

Yuko looked at him: I guess you are right

Dawn was looking at herself in the mirror she became thinner than before her cheeks aren't the same rosy full beautiful cheeks anymore her body isn't the same when ever she looks at herself in the mirror she sees a very sad girl who regrets what she did but also when she remembered what the two girls had said that day in the mall she thinks she did the right thing...

Dawn crying: Being his spoiled crying girlfriend is better than suffering like this

She hits the pool crying hard: No I shouldn't be selfish he deserves to be happy with another girl who can understand him...he deserves to be happy...I can't make him happy...I can't...I can't

She slowly sat on the floor crying hard

Dawn: Why? Why?

The next week, the soccer team practice,

Tai was sitting alone drinking water he had changed a lot and the all knew about his break up so no one is trying to say anything because they know he is in a very bad mood Suzy smiled she lends near her friend Shiro

Suzy: Guess what we said before two months near that little girl had worked

Shiro: Yes...but you know I never thought it would work and she will take it seriously like that...

Suzy pulled back: But it did work and now it is my turn to be near him and make him forget her forever

Shiro looked at Suzy: This is fast? Do you think he will accept any relationship now? He was so loyal for Mss. Dawn Ishida; don't ever think he will think to start new relationship now

Suzy: Just leave this to me...I worked hard to reach this point and now after I did reach it I shouldn't lose it...Taichi Kamiya is my man and mine alone

Shiro looked at Tai who was sad she looked down sadly

Shiro: Do you think we did the right thing Suzy?

Suzy smiled: Of course we did the right thing that girl wasn't good for him and we freed him from her...

Shiro looked at Tai again: But...if what you said is true then why he is so sad and suffering like that?

Suzy stands up carrying the lunch box: Because he took that relationship so seriously of course it will hurt a little but everything will be ok because I'll be by his side...

Suzy walked near Tai and sat next to him she was very beautiful girl

Suzy: Hi there Taichi

Tai drank some soda: Hi there Suzy

Suzy: I brought for you the lunch like always

Tai looked at Suzy smiling: You know you don't have too Suzy...

Suzy: No don't say that please...I really like making you the lunch by myself and I love seeing you eating because...

She looked down blushing: Please...here

Tai winked many times 'She is...kinda cute' he thought blushing then quickly he shacked his head 'Man what I'm thinking about' he took the lunch box and starts eating she used to bring for him his lunch since he broke up with Dawn who used to bring for him the lunch box

Suzy looked at Tai smiling

Suzy: Taichi...can I ask something?

Tai looked at Suzy: Sure

Suzy blushed she looked down: I was wondering...if you like to come out with me sometimes?

Tai stopped eating and looked at her she looked at him

Tai: Are you asking me...

Suzy: Yes...I'm asking you on a date with me...please

Tai looked down at the lunch box he knows he has to forget Dawn no matter what 'She is there having fun and who knows if she remembers me...I should forget her...and Suzy is so cute and nice person sure she is gonna be better...yes Taichi Kamiya just say yes she is the hottest one here'

He looked at Suzy smiling: When?

Suzy smiled: You wanna go out with me?

Tai: I'd really like too...it's gonna be my pleaser

Suzy smiled she was very happy 'Finally...'

One quit month later, Ishaida's main house,

Yuko and Omy finally had returned from Italy but Dawn after saying hi they sat in the living room

Matt: By the way where is Dawn?

Yuko signs: She is in France now

Matt raised one eyebrow: France? All by herself

Yuko: No with my father there...she insisted to go there and stay for couple weeks and of course your father couldn't ever say no to her

Omy: I never say no to my boys do you think I'll say it to my little angel....

Yuko: I'm so worried about her...didn't you see how she became...she became thinner than before and her face is yellow...ow gosh she is changing

Omy looked at Matt and Sora

Omy: How is Taichi doing?

Matt looked at Sora then the both looked at him

Matt: Tai...Tai is dating someone

Omy crossed his arms and closed his eyes: I see...

He looked at the two smiling: Good for him to keep on in his life...

Matt: Yah but...

Omy stands up: You know son the life should go even if we lost someone we love sure you know that well

Matt and Sora looked down remembering their daughter Omy puts his hand on Matt's shoulder Matt looked at his father who was smiling

Omy: I'm not sure Taichi is satisfied with what he is doing but he is still gets long way to understand

He smiled then entered his room Matt winked many times isn't sure what his father meant by that

Matt: I...I didn't get anything

Yuko: Your father can be mysterious sometimes...but you know something honey...the whole time Dawn had spent with Taichi made her change...she isn't even trying to go to any coma anymore she never tries to sleep and runs away like before she just wants to forget and go on in her life...I think she wants to be just like Tai

T.K: But still I don't get why did Dawn asked him to break up if she loves him so much

Yuko: I don't know either although me and your father tried our best to make her talk but she just keep changing the topic

Sora: Maybe she wants to keep it for herself

Yuko: Yah maybe anyway we won't force her more to tell...all what I wish for her is to forget and go on in her life

Tai's apartment,

Tai opened his apartment and let Suzy get in it was the first time for her to visit his place she went to the living room the place was untidy like always

Suzy giggled: Your place looks like a real guy place

Tai blushed while scratching the back of his head: I know it is very messy but I don't have much time to clean it...please make yourself home...

Suzy: Sure don't worry about that

Tai went to the kitchen to bring some cold drinks Suzy noticed something on the TV shelf she quickly went there and picked the frame she shocked when she saw his picture with Dawn, he was wrapping her from the back 'I can't believe it he still keeps her picture in his place...I thought I made him forget this stupid girl...I hate her so much I should find away to destroy her and let her disappear from his mind completely and then I can tell Taichi Kamiya is mine alone'

Tai came out from the kitchen he saw Suzy holding the frame he knows that picture is so important to him although he wants to forget Dawn he quickly puts the drink on the table and took the frame from her

Suzy raised one eyebrow: Is she your ex-girlfriend?

Tai: Yah

Suzy turned her head upset: I though you broke up with her...

Tai looked at the picture he still doesn't want to accept this 'No not my ex-girlfriend but my...my...my lover' Suzy looked at him she pulled the frame from Tai's hand and made a very sad face her eyes start to be wet

Suzy: I can't believe it...you still love this girl over me

Tai: I...no...I mean...

Suzy starts crying hard: Then why you keep her picture? Why? I am no good?

Tai: I didn't mean that Suzy...I just...forget to take it

Suzy: Then as your girlfriend I think I should do it...

Suzy came near Tai: I don't want you to have anything related to her...that bothers me so much...you know how the jealousy can work sometimes

Tai: Yah...I guess

Suzy gave him a peck on his lips then threw the picture away

Later at night,

Tai quickly entered his apartment after driving Suzy back he searched about the picture everywhere but he didn't find it

Tai: Where is it? Man...hope it is here somewhere

"Searching about this?"

He raised his head and saw Mimi is coming toward him he winked many times

Tai: M-Mimi? When did you come back from America?

Mimi: Before couple days...I guess you're looking for this

She showed him the picture he quickly took it

Tai: Yes...ow thank god...where did you find it?

Mimi: In the underground parking behind the trash box

Tai: Trash box?

Mimi: I know you broke up with that spoiled girl but it won't reach throwing her pictures like that

Tai: Of course I won't ever do such a thing like that

Mimi: You still love her don't you?

Tai blushed: NO WAY...I mean...why should I love her now? I mean I don't hate her of course...but...also I don't love her she is a normal person to me now I don't have anything to do with her

Mimi signs: I saw this new girl of yours

Tai puts the frame back on the TV shelf: Talking like I'm a womanizer already

Mimi sat on the couch putting one leg on the other: I didn't mean it that way...any way...I saw Suzy Nanio she isn't bad looking...but there is something in her face made me really uncomfortable I wonder what it is

Tai sat on the other couch: She is very good

Mimi: Are you sure?

Tai: Very sure and what is your problem, I'm fine with her

Mimi: Nothing just worried about one of my best friend...anyway I'm leaving now I just wanted to say hi

She stands up Tai stands up and walked her to the door but before she leaves she looked at him

Mimi: I always love the little Ishaida although it didn't show that way...she is so kind and innocent if I were in her stupid boyfriend place I wouldn't rush and break up with her before hearing her...ok...see you tomorrow

She left and closed the door after him Tai sat on the couch running his hands threw his wild hair then suddenly he stands up

Tai: I did the right thing I did the right thing I DID THE RIGHT THING...JUST FORGET HEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

The next day at night, Suzy's apartment,

Tai was sitting in the balcony staring at the sky while Suzy kept talking and talking to him about herself and how great she is and how a lot of guys asked her but he is the only one who could steal her heart Tai was very bored she keeps saying these stuff when ever they are together he signs

Flash back,

Dawn was sitting on the big swings in Tai's balcony while he was laying on her legs she was rubbing his hair she was looking at him while he kept talking about how great today's match

Tai: I was sure we are gonna win...man it was so great match

Dawn smiled: You know something

Tai looked at her she was smiling

Dawn: Sometime...I feel jealous from your team and from the soccer

Tai winked many times: What do you mean?

Dawn looked at the sky smiling: I know you love them so much but I want you to love me and only me and I don't want anything to share your love with me

She looked at him giggling softly: I know this is so selfish but...it is what I really feel

Tai smiled he rubs her cheek: Be sure nothing is sharing you in my love and my heart...there is only you my love

Dawn smiled: Really?

Tai: Really

Dawn: What about the soccer?

Tai: Not even myself

Some tears fall on Tai's face

Dawn: I'm happy to hear this...so happy

Tai smiled he wiped her tears: I hate them...

He slowly forced her head to meet his and kissed her on her lips

Tai: I love you so much

Dawn: And I love you too

End of flash back,
