Chapter 2
Arata was walking to a lounge the school had, it was connected to the library so he had to go there before he went to the library. It’s been two years since Ami moved and he was always checking his digivice for a message, a sign that she was coming back. He heard footsteps coming closer at a fast paced but he paid it no mind. A lot of the college students were running from paint A to point B. He’s done it a couple of times.
He did turn his head to look at whoever it was because they started walking with him. He saw red hair tied into a regular ponytail, a lady who was panting, a black shirt that had holes exposing the shoulders, a yellow digivice belt was tied around her slim waist where it led to a black skirt that stopped around her mid-thighs, black ballet style shoes covered her feet were black socks were at.
“I’m...so...out...of...shape,” she said in between pants. She looked at up with blue eyes, “Hi!”
“Hello?” Arata questioned. “Can I help you?”
“Yeah, do you know of any good hiding spots?” she asked. “I really could use a break from running away. My legs are feeling like jello!”
“Depends on what exactly you are running away from?”
“Arata!” a new voice yelled belonging to Ryota, a friend he met through Nokia. “Grab her! Don’t let her escape!”
“Shoot,” the female said as she started to run but Arata grabbed her arm and pulled her back. “Let me go! I thought you was a friend!”
Arata raised an eyebrow and went to question it but Ryota arrived and took the female away from him. Arata was still waiting for an explanation.
Ryota had turned the lady to where she was facing him and proceeded to hug her tightly before he spun her around in a tight bear hug. “My dear adventours Ami! It is so good to see you alive and well!” Ryota then leaned over the girl giving her a tighter hug. “How were your adventurous in Canada? Did you meet any moose? Please tell me you me some moose!”
“I can’t breath,” the female said. “Ribcage is penetrating my lungs. Release me at once!”
Ryota released her only to stare at her, “I knew it. You-you didn’t meet any moose? I gave you one task and that was to meet at least one moose for me! I am very disappointed in you Amiella Sakura the Third Aiba. OW!”
Ryota fell to his knees clutching his stomach, Arata just stared completely clueless expect that he now knew that the female was Ami who looked mad. “What did I say about my full name, Ryota? I don’t have one, Ami Aiba works perfectly well.” She turned towards Arata. “You heard nothing!”
Arata raised his hands up in surrender. “Sorry, I was too busy spacing out.”
Ami smiled, “Good, however I’m still mad at you! You didn’t recognize me.”
Arata grabbed her arm and started pulling her away from Ryota who was slowly getting up. “I wasn’t expecting you to wear all black plus not send us a message.”
“I figured a surprise would be best,” Ami said.
“Still want the hiding spot?”
“Yes, please.”
“Than follow me, it’s that not that far away but we can lose Ryota if we run.”
“Lead the way, please.”
Ami and Arata were sitting in a small and dark path that was between two buildings. Ami was rubbing her tired legs that gave out on her once Arata said they were there.
“So, Amella Sakura the -” Arata started to say but grimace when he felt a sharp elbow to his side. “Ow.”
“Shut up, shut up. I’m getting that changed tomorrow. Not dealing with another year of that name that my blasted father gave me when he was high and mom was still recovering from labor,” Ami said glaring at him. “It’s just going to be Ami Aiba.”
Arata chuckled, “Welcome home.”
“Thank you,” Ami said with a smile.
“Ami!” Ryota yelled.
“Stay quiet and he won’t find us,” Arata whispered into her ear. They watched Ryota ran past them looking everywhere for them.
Ami was never more happy to be back home in Japan than what she was is now.
