Mimi got up early that day and got dressed up. Today should be this test! She was really excited. She really wanted to see Matt, Tai, and Sora in class.
At half past ten she left the house. Her appointment wasn't until 11, but she couldn't take it any longer and said it was better to be early than late. The school was found quickly. She was walking towards the entrance portal when it was pushed open from the inside and a young man, no older than Mimi, stepped out. The two looked at each other and froze. It was Izzy! Mimi wanted to run away, but her feet were frozen solid. While Izzy walked grimly looking at her, she thought feverishly what to do now. Izzy was her ex-boyfriend! She broke up with him just before she went to America. Actually, she broke up the day she left. She had left him with a letter shortly before her flight and had never replied to his calls, text messages, and emails since.And now he stood there and came up to her and ...
Izzy was now standing in front of Mimi.
"Izzy, I ..."
But Mimi didn't get any further, because Izzy had given her a hard slap in the face. Startled, she looked at her ex-boyfriend and put her hand on her aching left cheek.
"Izzy, what ..."
Izzy looked Mimi deep in the eyes. Then he said in a firm voice:
"Why did you just leave then?"
"Izzy, I ...", Mimi began for the third time,
"I wanted ... that couldn't go well over this distance and I ..."
Izzy, who was still looking into Mimi's eyes, which were turned to the ground, cut her off again:
"And you didn't love me anymore, did you?"
Mimi looked up.
"No, that's not true! I still loved you!"
"But you were with this Micel!"
"That ... that was much later and that is also over ..."
"Oh, did you break up with him too, because you're here again?"
"No! He ... he", Mimi came tears. Izzy looked annoyed to the side, but then back to Mimi's face.Mimi sniffed and finished the sentence .:
"He kissed another ..."
She now looked into Izzy's face as well. He had changed a lot. He was older and more mature now and ...
Izzy looked into Mimi's eyes. She was still the same Mimi he had once loved.
Suddenly Izzy took Mimi's face in his hands and kissed her passionately.
It took a few seconds for Mimi to understand, but then she quickly pulled away from Izzy's kiss.
"Iz, it doesn't work!", She said and averted her face.
"But why? Why can't we pick up where we left off?"
"Because times change Izzy, that's why." with these words Mimi disappeared into the school building. She spent a good 5 minutes on the toilet to catch herself again. Had she really just kissed her ex-boyfriend? No not true. Or is it?
Outside she heard the tower clock strike 11 and quickly made her way to the rectorate.

When she left it again around 12, Sora suddenly stood in front of her."Hey Sora, what are you doing here?"
"I wanted to pick you up."
"And the boys?"
"Matt and Tai? Oh, they still have school."
"Aren't you in a class?"
"No, I'm in the boys' parallel class."
"That's a pity..."
"How so?"
"Because I'll either get into your class or yours."
"Are you coming to our grade level?"
"Of course. Would I be here otherwise?"
"I thought you'd just register here and all ... Oh, by the way, I saw you and Izzy in the school yard earlier."
"You saw everything?"
"Well, actually only the first part, then I had to look at the blackboard again. Did the slap hurt a lot?"
"It works..."
"Basically you deserved it ... Izzy was totally blown up afterwards."
"Hmm ... he wanted everything to be the same as before ..."
"And what did you say?"
"I said it couldn't be ..."
"So, so your heart is given to someone else?"
Mimi stopped abruptly. Slowly she repeated Sora's last words:
"Someone else...?""Or? You always told me you were sooo happy."
Mimi was still looking at Sora. And again her thoughts circled. Someone else? Did your heart really beat for someone else? Sora could talk easily there, she had her Matt. Wait a minute, Matt? A creature had awakened deep inside Mimi, crying out for something. Just after what? She felt this creature inside her since she was back in Japan. Ever since the Digi Knights welcome committee, ever since Matt was back in her life ...
"Mimi?" Sora asked worried.
"What?", Mimi shook her head to get rid of the thought. Matt and Sora were a couple! And Sora was her best friend when nothing was there with Matt!
They left the rest of the way in silence. When they arrived at Sora's apartment, they said goodbye.
"And if something is, I'm there, yes?" with these words Sora said goodbye and ran into the house.
