Me: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know that I'm writing another one… But this one came to me and I couldn't let it slip…
Serpent Omega
Ryo looked around the living room for some money. Sometimes, it was so hard… Bakura wasn't always in the greatest mood and Ryo simply couldn't find anyone that would offer him a job. Money was beginning to grow scarce in the Bakuras' house and Ryo didn't want to ask his dad or start dipping into his college savings. Bakura came out of his room and watched his hikari rummage around, completely oblivious of Bakura being there. "What are you looking for?" He asked.
Ryo jumped with shock and held his heart. "Don't sneak up on me Bakura!" Exclaimed the boy breathing heavily.
Bakura stood where he was and examined his fingernails closely. "I wasn't sneaking, I merely came out of my room. It's not my fault you were so absorbed in upturning the entire living room."
"You're right…" Confessed Ryo quietly, straightening the sofa and the coffee table.
"What are you looking for anyways?" Bakura asked as he approached the boy.
"Some money… We're out of food and I'm starving…" Ryo mumbled.
Bakura dug in his pocket, pulled out some money and gave it to Ryo. "Here. But let's go shopping… At least we can buy some meats to make some sandwiches."
"Thanks Bakura." Ryo smiled and held the money for a moment before putting it in his own pocket. "Yeah, let's go…" And the two left their home into the late afternoon setting of Domino.
They came home and ate until both were full and put the rest of the food away.
"What are we going to do, Bakura? We're not getting any richer, and I don't know when Dad's ever going to find time to come back… I can't find a job..." Tears began swimming in Ryo's radiant chocolate eyes. "I'm scared, Bakura… I don't know what's going to happen…"
Bakura comforted his hikari, not knowing how to say that he was afraid too.
