045: Dusty Rose

136 Words

A sigh escaped Yugi's lips as he set the box aside. Perhaps he should have accepted Jou's offer for some help, but he wanted to clean out Atem's old things by himself. He opened the box to go through it, finding just more dusty items that could be thrown out.

His fingers brushed over something soft and delicate, causing Yugi to pause his movements. Reaching down to the bottom of the box, his hands curled around what he was touching and pulled it out of the box.

A small smile appeared on his lips as he looked at the dusty, plastic rose in his hand. He looked it over, running his fingers over the red fabric petals as he looked at it and set it aside.

Perhaps not everything in these boxes could be thrown away.
