"Hey, Crow!" I looked up from my toys. Dad was bragging again. Course I do it too but not as much. "Your Pops just scored a tournament!"
"You were invited to the tournament." Mom stated, picking me up. "It's time for a bath little one." I'd been outside for a few hours, playing in the backyard. She'd caught me playing in her flower beds. She'd scolded me, but that was it. Except she made me come inside. Dad shrugged.
"Same thing. Kaiba invited me."
"To watch you lose? Remember it's Kaiba. He doesn't exactly like you Joey." She closed the bathroom door and set me on my feet. I raised my arms as Mom removed my shirt. I stepped out of the rest of my clothes before I was placed in the bathtub.
"I could win the tournament!" He called through the door.
…
Dad was coming back to the house with a smile and the mail. "Tea! I got invited to a tournament!" I beamed. I guess that means I'll be able to see Jack, Yusei, and Crow. That's awesome! I jumped to my feet and ran to him.
"Yay Daddy!" I cheered. He ruffled my hair.
"Thanks, kiddo." He scooped me up before going to the living room. He turned the television on to Animal Planet, my favourite channel, and set me down. Mom sat down next to Dad on the couch.
"That's great Tristan!" Mom said, kissing Dad. I spat my tongue out.
"Gross." They just chuckled.
"Just watch the show, Kalin." Mom said, laughing. I turned to watch the television.
