"Hey Bakura, where are you going?" Yugi asked when he noticed Bakura about to leave their hotel.
Yugi and his friends had tagged a long with Bakura on his trip to England. Bakura had told his friends that he was going to England because it had been a while since he had last been there, which was true but his real reason was a bit more personal.
"Oh well I was just planning to visit some one I hadn't seen in a while that's all." He said
"Well it would get a bit lonely if I stayed here alone,since everyone else decided they wanted to go swimming in the hotel pool today so why don't I go with you." Yugi stood up and quickly wrote down a not for the others and put it on the table.
Out with Bakura, see you guys later - Yugi
Bakura was going to object but knew he couldn't force Yugi to stay "Well if you'd like you can come along."He told him as he left the room.
Bakura stopped out side of a shop "Ah I need to get something from here first." He told Yugi, Yugi looked up and noticed it was a flower shop.
Just who on earth was Bakura meeting, Yugi was beginning to wonder. Behind the counter stood a woman in her mid thirties to early forties. Her hair was pinned up in a bun. She gave a slight smile when she saw Bakura "You've certainly grown quite a bit since I last saw you Ryou." She began to pick out a few flowers "Let me guess you want yellow and white rose, right." She handed him a small bouquet of about half a dozen roses, three white and three yellow. Bakura smiled and nodded, taking the flowers and paid for them before leaving.
"So who are you going to see?" Yugi asked not being able to hold his curiosity any longer, and sick of Yami telling him to ask Bakura.
"My sister." He answered,
Yugi wasn't sure what surprised him more the fact the at Bakura had a sister or the lack of enthusiasm in his voice that one would expect from someone going to visit a family member. "Well she sure is lucky to have a brother like you, not many would buy their sister's flowers if they're just visiting." Yugi told him
"Yah I guess." Bakura went quiet and Yugi wondered what he could do to lighten the mood,
"Is she older or younger?" He asked breaking the silence between them.
"She's my little sister." Bakura replied a small smile coming across his face.
At first Yugi began to wonder where they were headed being that he didn't know where much of anything was in this city, but as they turned the corner he noticed a cemetery and they were headed right for it. Why of all places you would meet someone there, Yugi though before starting to put all the pieces together. The way Bakura was acting, the flowers and now this. It was all adding up but decided not to say anything until he knew for sure.
They walked through the cemetery for a bit before stopping at a small grave stone all that was written on it was
Amane Bakura,
Beloved Sister and Daughter.
It sat beside another one with the last name of Bakura also written on it, though it was a bit more weather worn and faded but he could make out the words, mother and wife on it. Bakura put the flowers down in front of it. Yugi told Bakura he'd wait for him over by the large oak tree near the exit, to give him some time alone.
"Thanks Yugi, I'm actually kinda glad you came."
"Hey, that's what friends are for, you can tell the others when you are ready." Yugi reassured him as he walked away.
Bakura knelt down in front of his sisters grave and put a hand on the stone "Happy Birthday, sis." He said wiping away a few tears.
