Anzu and Joey held hands as they walked into the burning sun. Thoughts of seasons to come crossed Anzu's mind. Naturally Joey only thought of what he might eat next. Spaghetti perhaps? The couple came to a swing set.
"Hah. I don't know why, but I never turn down a swing set." Anzu laughed.
"Huh," Joey uttered, breaking out of his fantasy of swimming in pasta. "Oh, seriously, me too!"
"Sit next me, sweety-pie." She patted the swing next to her. Joey plopped down onto the swing and mindlessly began to kick his feet up to get it moving. Anzu didn't notice his present distraction. "I'm glad we had time to actually go on a date. It makes me so happy!"
"Eh-what?" Joey glanced at her. Not really knowing what she had said, he decided to start up his own topic. "Hey, what should we get for dinner?"
"It doesn't matter to me." She shrugged. Suddenly her feet stomped the ground, and her swing stopped moving. "Oh, crud."
"What's wrong?" Joey mumbled as he pulled his cell phone, and began text message.
"Yugi's coming." Anzu said. Joey looked up and was also a bit startled to see the short, strange and disfigured lad approaching them. The couple locked eyes with each other, mentally trying to come up with a solution. Obviously neither of them were really telepathic and failed. Anzu spoke up, "What do we do?"
"Just tell him we happened to run into each other…. For the sixth time this week." Doubt flooded Joey's voice. He stood up. "I'll just go hide. Pretend I wasn't here, okay, babe?"
"Wha- Oh, look he's waving. At both of us." Anzu sweated.
"Just say I was someone else! And take that stupid ring off already!" Joey yanked a golden band off Anzu's thin finger.
"Ow! You're so mean, sometimes." Anzu looked to see Yugi coming closer and appearing mildly concerned. "I'm not going to say you're someone else!"
"Whatever! I'm just gonna go hide." Joey jolted off into some nearby bushes. Anzu watched after him, and realized he had left his cell phone on the swing.
"Hey, Anzu, what's with you and Joey. You're awful palsy-walsy these days." Yugi said, now that he was close enough to actually talk to her. Anzu didn't answer. She picked up the cell phone and looked at the screen. A loud "NO!" emerged from bushes. Anger rose up inside the young woman, the text message read, "Dear Tristan, this date sucks, we haven't eaten any food."
