memories.....
 
 

    Rika Nonaka and Henry Wong had just  finished high school when Rika had found out she was pregnant with Henry's baby. Rika and Henry's parents were very angry with them at first and wanting questions and answers! After that was out of  the way Rika and Henry moved into an apartment.  Nine months later in the good month of June Rika had the baby they named him Kouji. When Rika and Henry reached the age of 20 they got married, and Kouji was three years old. Kouji  would always ask about his parents past and how old they were when they had him. Every time Henry would say he would have to leave for work or Rika would change the subject. So Kouji decided to forget about it for now.

June 10/2002

    Kouji was in his bedroom playing with his cars when he heard the front door open and people talking and laughing. It must be company! He could hear his mommy laughing and saying how long its been yadda, yadda, yadda...So Kouji stood up and walked down the long hallway to were his mommy was talking at the front door. ' I wonder who those people are.' Kouji thought curiously. He had never seen them before.

"Mommy?" He asked softly.

Everyone stopped hugging and laughing when they heard Kouji's little voice. They all looked down at him and smiled warmly.

"Don't tell me thats him!" A lady beamed cheerfully.

"Thats my baby." Rika smiled picking him up. "Kouji these are my friends. Jeri and Takato."

Kouji just looked at them. They seemed to be nice enough people.

"Say hello." Rika told him softly. Kouji just barred his little face into his mother's shoulder.

"I guess he's shy." Takato smiled.

"Sure is quiet." Jeri added.

"Well he's not so quiet when it comes to nap time." Rika chuckled

"Where's Henry?" Takato asked. "I cant wait to see him again."

"He wont be home until 6:30." Rika replied.

"What does he do?" Jeri asked.

"He's a Kung-fuu teacher." Rika replied setting Kouji  down.  "As much as i love talking with you guys again can we sit in the living room?"

"Sure!" Jeri beamed. "Me and Takato got some news for you anyway. Its best we sit down."

"Ok." Rika smiled. "You go and  sit and i will make us some coffee."

"Ok." Jeri and Takato nodded.

In the kitchen...

"Mommy? How long you been friends with them?" Kouji asked curiously.

"Ever since i was 13 years old." Rika replied smiling at her son. "We didn't get off to a great start but we manage to become the best of friends."

"Were you da same age when you met daddy?"

Rika nodded. "Yes. I was 13 when i met you're father."

"Ho-"

"I'm sorry honey but mommy has to go now." Rika picked up the tray of cookies and the 3 cups of coffee and carried it into the living room.

**

"So what's the big news?" Rika asked setting the tray down onto the coffee table.

"Well..." Jeri smiled taking Takato's hand.  (A/N: grrrr i hate Jeri/takato ><)

"Well what?" Rika giggled. "Tell me!"

"Were gonna have a baby." Takato replied.

(a/N : You have ANY idea how hard it was to write that? ><)

Rika's eyes widen. "You're kidding!"

"Nope." Jeri smiled. "Were serious."

"OMG! I'm so happy for you!" Rika said giving them both a hug.

"So when did you find out?" Rika asked.

"A month ago." Takato replied. "Doctor says it may be twins."

"Thats wonderful!" Rika smiled. "I'm very happy for you."

"Thanks Rika." Jeri smiled shyly.

"What did Henry say when he found out you were pregnant Rika?" Takato asked.

"Um..."

"RIKA! I"M HOME!" A voice called.

Rika smiled and ran to the front door throwing her arms around her  husband. "HENRY!" She giggled.

"Hi hon.." He hugged back. "How was Kouji today?"

"He was a very good boy." Rika replied looking down at her son who walked up to his parents. "Hi Daddy!" He waved.

"Hi." Henry picked up his son. "So i hear you were very good for mommy today."

Kouji nodded. "Me was very good!"

"Henry, Takato and Jeri are here." Rika told him.

"Really?" Henry asked. "Thats great!"

"Yeah." Rika grabbed his arm. "Come on."

***
 

"A baby?" Henry questioned. "Whoa! When did this happen?"

"Well you see we went on a date and-"

"You know what i mean!" Henry sighed. -.-;

"Sorry." Takato laughed. "As we told Rika it happened last month."

"What happened last month mommy?" Kouji asked very curiously.

"Nothing hon..." Rika smiled nervously. "Why don't you go and play."

"But mommy-"

"Do as you're mother says." Henry told his son seriously. "Mommy and i have to talk with our friends."

"Ok..." Kouji walked out of the room.

****

"Well Rika?" Jeri asked again. What did Henry say when he found out you were pregnant?"

"Well uhh....."

FLASH BACK!

"Henry...." Rika started.

"Yes?"

"I'm.......I'm....."

"What is it?" Henry  edged over to Rika.

"I'm pregnant!" She blurted out.

No answer...

"Henry say-" Rika stopped in her tracks when she saw Henry fainted on the floor.

"That went well." She sweatdroped.
 

END OF FLASH BACK!
 

"Fainted?" Takato questioned looking at Henry.

"Yep." Henry said trying to laugh it off.

"How silly..." Takato replied smiling.

"Well at least Henry wasn't drunk when Rika told him SHE was pregnant." Jeri narrowed her eyes at Takato.

Takato laughed nervously. "Um...hahaha...."

"You mean to tell me Takato was drunk when you told him you were pregnant?" Rika's eyes widen in surprise.

"Yeah." Jeri nodded. "The next morning when he finally came out of it and when he asked me what happend i told him that i said i was pregnant that night."

Henry pointed and laughed at Takato.

"Shut up!" Takato glared.

~DING DONG~

"I will get that." Rika said running to the front door. But she noticed her son had already gotten it.

"How are you?" Kouji asked.

"I'm-"

"Kazu?" Rika qustioned.

"Yo Digimon Queen." He winked. "Its great to see you again."

"Uhh....you too."  Rika said still surprised.

"Hi." A small voice greeted.

Rika then looked down and beside Kazu's leg was a small boy with brown hair and dark brown eyes. He was about the same age as Kouji was.

Rika smiled and kneeled down. "Hello there what's you're name?"

"Li." He answered back quietly.

"Well aren't you a little cutie." Rika said patting him on the head.

The little boy blushed shyly.

"Is this you're son?" Rika asked standing up.

"Yep." Kazu smiled.

Then a woman with long blond hair came up beside him.

"And this is my wife Nikki." Kazu added.

"Nikki?" Rika questioned.  "As in Nikki shinguu?"

The woman nodded. "Thats right."

"Wow...." Rika was very surprised that Kazu was married and had kids. Well i guess everyone has that special someone.

"Come in." Rika smiled.

"Thanks." Kazu and Nikki replied as they walked in.

Rika was about to close the door when someone else came.

"Huh? Who are you?" Rika asked.

"Rika!" The person replied sounding surprise. "You don't remember me? The digimon king?"

"RYO?!" Rika questioned.

"In the flesh!" He smiled. "I came up here with Kenta and his wife."

"Hi." Kenta waved holding his three year old daughter.

"Omg...." Rika was very surprised now.  "So Ryo where's you're wife?"

"Right here." The woman said coming up beside Ryo. "Hi."

"Uhh....hi?"

BACK YARD

Because everyone thought it was such a beautiful day they decided to sit outside in the backyard. The adults talked while they kept an eye on their children who were playing soccer.

"Daddy?" Miko asked looking up at Ryo.

"Yes what is it hon?"

"I go play soccer too?"

"Sure." Ryo smiled. "Go ahead."

Miko cheered and ran to play soccer with the other kids.

"Be careful!!" Called Ryo's wife Kim.

"Pass it!" Kouji called to Li who was running with the ball.

"Keep it away from me!" Lizzy and Jerry said covering their heads. (Kenta's kids)

"So Rika you're married to Henry now eh?"

"Yes." Rika nodded. "And i'm happy for that."

"I'm happy for you too." Ryo said. "So how long you been married?"

"Almost a year i think." Henry replied. "We had Kouji when  we were 17."

"17?" Jeri asked. "Thats pretty young."

"It just happened..." Rika blushed. "But...." Rika glanced over at Kouji playing soccer and smiled. "I'm very happy we had him."

"Me too." Agreed Henry. "Hes a very special little guy."

**Later on...**

It was now dinner time and everyone was eatting outside. The adults sat at the  table while the kids sat on a blanket under the cherry blossom tree in the backyard.

"You're mom is a good cook." Cherry said looking at Kouji.

"Thanks..." Kouji replied shyly.

Kouji then looked up when he heard his mother call him.

"Be right back." Kouji said standing up and running up to his mother.

"What is it mommy?" Kouji asked.

"Honey...." Rika started as a woman and a girl around 3 years old came up beside Rika.

"This is an old friend of mommy's she came all the way from China."

"Hello Kouji." The woman smiled. "My name is Rei and this is my daughter Izumi."

"Hello." Kouji waved. "Its nice to meet you."

Izumi said nothing but cling to her mother's leg.

"Ni hao..." Izumi replied softly.

Kouji looked very confused. "Huh?" Kouji looked at his mother. "Mommy what did she say?"

"She said hello hon." Rika replied. "Ni hao means hello in chinese."

"Oh..."

"Izumi honey why don't you go and eat with the other kids."

Izumi shook her head.

"Come on." Kouji said taking Izumi's hand. "Come and meet everyone."

"W-Wait!" Izumi said softly.

***

"Everyone this is Izumi." Kouji told his friends.  "She came from China."

"Da jia hao..." She waved shyly.

Everyone looked confused.

"Izumi they don't understand chinese." Kouji said. "You have to say hello to them in Japanese."

"Oh...hello." Izumi said.

"Hey!" They all smiled.

"Its nice to meet you." Jerry said. "My name is Jerry and this is my sister Lizzy."

"Hi!" She said cheerfully.

Izumi smiled maybe she was going to fit in just fine here in Japan.

****

"Bye!" Rika waved. "It was nice having you all here! Goodbye!"

"Byebye!" Waved Kouji.

"Bye!" Everyone else waved back.

Rika then shut the door. "Phew..."

"What a day." Henry said.

"Yeah." Nodded Rika.

8:00 PM
 

Rika put Kouji to bed and kissed his forehead.

"Goodnight sweety." She said softly.

"Night mommy..." He said as he drifed off to sleep.

******

12 years later....

Kouji was now 14 years old and was still unaware of his parents past. It was a beautiful monday morning and it was Kouji's first day of school.

"Morning..." Kouji yawned walking into the kitchen to find his mother making breakfast and his father sitting at the table drinking a nice hot cup of coffee and reading the news paper.

"Morning Kouji." His mother smiled. "You're up early."

"wanted to get a head start." Kouji replied.

"Well thats good." His mother smiled setting a plate down in front of him. "Now eat up."

"Thanks mom." Kouji dug into his food.

"Slow down son." His father told him. "Its only school." He grinned.

~DING  DONG~

"I got it." Rika said opening the front door. "Why hello Izumi."

"Good morning Mrs. Wong." Izumi bowed. "How are you this morning?"

"Fine." Rika smiled. "Why don't you come in. Kouji is almost done."

KOUJI AND IZUMI WALKING TO SCHOOL
 

"Ready for some learning?" Izumi grinned.

"Yeah another year of failing." Kouji  yawned.

Izumi giggled.

"You're cute."

Kouji blushed. "hehe..."

Kouji looked over at Izumi. She looked very beautiful to him. So he wanted to ask her out. But how?

"Um...Izumi?"

"Yes Kouji?" Izumi smiled. "What is it?"

"I was wondering....do you wanna go out with me on friday?"

Izumi froze and looked over at Kouji. "What did you say?"

"I said did you want to go out with me?"

Izumi thought for a moment. Then looked at Kouji.

' She's going to say no...' Kouji thought nervously. ' I just know it..'

Izumi then smiled. "I would love too!"
