It was said and done by the time Joey come up to me. "Serenity, where did you went to? I had my gang looking for you."

"Sorry, I was sight track with the view." I wasn't lying, nor playing any games. Joey scolds me just a little. After that, he called his friends and we all went out to eat. We made it to a little coffee shop.

Yugi spoke to me. "Serenity, don't go walking by yourself, especially when you don't know the way around."

"Sorry that I made you run all over the place to look for me."

Joey comforts me. "Serenity, it's okay. Next time, just tell me that you were walking around okay."

"Okay." I order something simple and not expensive for Joey to pay or not I'll pay. I have no job yet and if I did work it will be my first job. They all wanted to know how I lived. I told them something in one word. "Simple." I never got myself any type of trouble. I didn't have friends.

Tristan wants to know more. "Serenity, you had any boyfriends?"

"Um, no," I said it with shyness. He stayed quiet for a bit. Joey was giving him a death glare. All of us sweat drop with their action. In overall, it was nice to laugh and enjoy a day with them. They took me around the city. We came across the same limo and that same man.

Joey got mad and yelled at the limo. "Seto, I know you're in there!"

The limo stops and Seto rolled down his window. "Well, it isn't Joey Wheeler." Joey went up to him and talked. I stayed behind and didn't get involved because he owns the college. I think he didn't notice me. I heard Seto laughing. Joey got extra mad. Seto's limo started to move when we happen to look at each other. I blushed a little because I wasn't expecting that from him.

Joey yells my name. "Serenity!"

I turn my head to see them on the opposite side of the road. "I'm coming."

….

Today was a long day. I had an awesome time with all. I went back home and Joey got the mail. I got a mail from school. I open it up and found out that school starts tomorrow and my schedule. I was excited. "Joey, school starts tomorrow."

He was happy. "That's good. Hey, I got a present for you."

I looked up to him. "You do? What is it?"

"I can't tell you just yet."

It puts me in a rather mix emotion about this. "Joey, you shouldn't have bought me nothing. Anyway, can you take me to a furniture store? I have to buy a bed and a desk."

"No, I mean you shouldn't go right now. It's getting late and you should get ready for tomorrow." He was acting rather strange.

"Okay. I'll just go in my room."

I went into my room and started to organize. I had a closet. I put my boxes in there and the rest in near the closet. It was much bigger and has a lot of escape. I lay on the wooden floor. It was nice that it was clean before I got here. I turn myself to look at the window. The sun was shining down on me. "Mr. Sun, you think I will live a happy here?" The sun didn't answer me. "I know, your answer. I will."

…

(Next Day.)

I got up from the sofa. "I thought I fell asleep on the floor of my room. I guess Joey picked me up." I went to my room and picked out new clothes for my first day at school. I got ready and went to Joey rooms to see him knock out. I close the door quietly for him not to hear me. I went to my car and drove off to the campus. I got there and it was amazing. It was huge and had a huge landscape to see. I went inside to see few people going to places. I arrive two hours ahead of time to see my new classes and where it is.

I went to the main entrance and asked where my classes, of course. They gave me a map of the college. I walked around to find my classes which I did. I was outside sitting on a bench waiting for the time. The paper said it starts like around 9 am. It was only 8:30.

The sun was shining on me and feel nice, I was waiting forever. I close my eyes and look up to the sun. My phone started to ring. It was Joey, I picked up. "Hello?"

"Serenity, where are you?"

"Joey, I saw you sleeping and didn't want to bother you. So, I left for school. My class starts at 9."

"Serenity, you should have woken me up. I was worried."

"Sorry. I should have."

"It's okay. Glad you are at school. What time are you coming back?"

"My last class ends at three."

Joey didn't answer me back, but he did say. "Good, I'm happy to hear that. I'll make dinner for tonight."

"Okay," I smiled to myself. "Joey, I have to go."

"Okay, just be safe."

"Hn." I hang up on him, grab my book bag and went to my class. It was at least 8:49. I got there in time.

…

It was about three o'clock. I was tired running around to get to my classes and getting a lot of homework for my first day. I'm overloaded, but to become a lawyer, "I will pass my classes." I was done with school and now heading home. "I should ask Joey if he could tell me where is a furniture store." I got home and Joey wasn't in the living room. "Joey."

He comes out of my bedroom. "Sis. Close your eyes."

I did what he told me. He drags me somewhere, hearing the door open. "Now, open your eyes."

I open my eyes, there was a bed, a lamp on top of a desk and a chair next to the bed. He bought me what I wanted to buy, but in the end, I was thankful. "Joey, thank you." I gave him a big old hug. Joey gave me a hug.

"You shouldn't have bought it. You know mother gave me extra.."

"Sis, don't worry. I just want to spoil you since I haven't been around in your life." He put his hand under his nose and rub it while smiling.

"Thank you so much."

"I'll have to leave now. Enjoy your new bedroom." He walks away. I was grateful. I turn around to look at my bedroom. The bed was small but it was just right. I looked out the window and happen to notice he put curtains on them. I started to unpack most of my items in the desk and the cabinet that was in front of my bed right next to the door. "How did I miss that? Never mind." After that, I got started on my homework. I forgot to order some book. "I should go and get them. I'll get them tomorrow."

I was done with my homework that didn't take long. I got my pajamas out and got ready for bed. Joey hasn't come back yet. I tried calling him, but no answer. I was worried about him and I do not have his friends number. I forgot about my mother. I call her right up.

"Serenity, didn't I tell you to call me when you got there! Now, tell me how everything went."

"Hello mother, I got here pretty okay. I got to know the campus and the teachers. Also, today was my first day. It went splendidly. Mama I think, I would enjoy myself over here. It's pretty calm."

Mother got happy to hear my reply. "I'm so glad. Remember when you come into trouble just call me, okay."

"I will, mother. Good night."

"Good night, sweetheart."

I hang up on her. I went to take a shower. I came out and notice Joey hasn't come back. I made my food and made extra for Joey. I called him again, no answer. So, I just leave it and went to sleep. "He's a grown boy, he doesn't need anyone to check up on him."

...

(Following day)

I woke up and saw what time it is. I was an hour early, then my alarm clock. I got up and got ready for school. I check on Joey's bedroom. He did come back. I close his door and went to the kitchen to make something to eat. Joey walks into the kitchen.

"Serenity, sorry."

I turn my head to look at my food. "It's fine. I am just glad you came back home safe."

"Sis, I know you were worried about me. You called me twice."

"Joey, I was worried. I mean you are my brother. I have every right to be concerned about you."

Joey places his hand on top of my head. "Baby sis, I'm a big boy. I could handle myself."

I smiled. "I know brother. Let's eat."

...

(Almost a year later)

"I can't wait until next month, I'll get my vacation. I worked so hard. I can't believe it's going to be a year going to school." Joey has been working extra hard since I still couldn't find a job. It has been hard to get one. I got the mail and nothing for me, it was a letter to Joey. It reads 'Open immediately.' I went to the kitchen and sat down. "Should I? I have never come across a mail like this." I place it down on the small table. "No, it's Joey's mail and I should respect it."

It was killing me to know what was inside. "Sorry, Joey." I got hot water boiling and the steam started to form. I put the envelope over the boiled water so the steam could do its job. It was started to open. I got it open, turning off the boiling water. I got the letter out and my heart started to race. "I have to know." I open it up and read.

I was stunned. "Joey owns money. No way!" He owns at least, 4,000 dollars. "I can't believe this." So, he bought me that bed set with this money. I got another piece of paper and wrote down the number and company address. I put back the letter and put clear tape on the back. I put it back in the mailbox. It wouldn't seem that I took it out or know about it. I was shocked to learn about my brother secret. "I should help him." I looked around for Mokuba's business card. I found it in my desk. I took a deep breath and dial his number.

He picked up. "Hello, Mokuba Kaiba speaking. May I know, who I am talking too?"

"Hello, Mokuba. I'm Serenity Wheeler. I got a little problem and I was wondering if you could help with that."

"Serenity, how are you? Sure, I could help you with anything. What is your problem?"

"I'm fine and well. Uh. You see, I need a job by the end of this summer. Can you help me to look for one?"

"Oh, I think I have a perfect job for you. I'll pick you up around 3 or so."

"Really, that was fast. Where is, this job located?"

"Yes, sorry. It's at Kaiba's company. I see you soon." He hangs up on me.

I put the piece of paper away under my books on the desk. "I hope Joey doesn't find it." I went back to the living room and watch TV. Joey comes in with the mail in his hand. "Oh, Serenity. You are here early."

"Yeah, Um, it's because I finish one of my classes today." Should I tell him that I found a job? I was debating on that still. I should tell him when the job becomes official.

"Why you here earlier? I thought you worked, in the night time?"

"My boss took me out and place me to have a day time." He walks away into his bedroom.

I can't wait until tomorrow. I finally get a job, hopefully, it is decent and it pays well. I must save up that much to pay off Joey's debt. I will own him. It's just awful to be in debt. I just image Joey is drowning in his own debt. I feel bad. I went to make dinner for Joey and myself. Joey walks in. "Serenity. What are you making for dinner?"

"I haven't started yet. I was planning on making rice and beans or we could eat something else if you want?"

"Um. It sounds delicious. Do you need help?"

"Yes."

He helps me out. It was nice to know that he will help me.

….

The following day, Mokuba took me. We stop in front of a building that was fancy. Mokuba speaks to me. "You know why I took you here right?" He holds a yellow folder in his hands as we got out.

"Um, not sure," as I asked confused. We walked up the staircase and enter the building.

"I brought you here because the last secretary was doing a horrible job and got fired. It happened yesterday and you happen to call me. It was a blessing because Seto would have picked no one for the job."

"Really? Um. I'll try my best to keep up with everything and even school."

Mokuba stops. "Didn't you finish school until the next couple of weeks."

"Yes, I just finish one of my classes. I still have three classes left."

"Oh, okay. My brother could do something about that."

I nodded. "I hope so." We headed to the elevator to the five floor. We walked towards a room that had big doors. Next to the big doors was a white desk. Mokuba opens the door. Inside everything looks so white, which I hate. We went in. I think it's an office. It had some color hear and there, but it was still white. Someone turns the chair.

"Mokuba, what brings you here?" It was the same man. I happened to see not too long ago. Joey hates him.

"Seto meet Serenity Wheeler." Mokuba put his hand up to introduce myself. I was in deep trouble. Today, is going to be an awful day.

I hope you enjoy my little story. :)
