Chapter 2

Tea's friends had never seen her house. This wasn't much of a loss for Tea. Her family wasn't perfect. The only person that had seen even the outside of it was Yugi. Tea didn't really like to talk about her family. Her mother liked to manipulate people and play with their emotions. Her mother was always picking fights with her dad. As a result, her dad was an alcoholic. Tea's dad wouldn't just leave her mom, because he still loved her. Tea's mom hadn't always been like this, well as bad as this. Her mom's crazyness had gotten worse within the last few years. It upset Tea to just be in the house when her mother was around. Luckily for Tea, her parents worked odd schedules and were hardily ever home.

One time, Tea was home at the same time as her parents. Her father had asked her to start her homework. Tea had gotten up to start it and her mother yelled at her to do her homework. Tea's dad told her that Tea was starting it. Tea's mom was offended for some reason and began fighting with her dad. In the middle of the fight, her mother said it was all Tea's fault that they were fighting. This didn't impress Tea, so she walked out of the house angrily, close to tears.

While aimlessly around, Tea ran into Yugi. He asked what was wrong and they went to the park. He was the only person that had the slightlest idea of what was going on at her house. Yugi had always been there for her.

Tea faintly smiled as she left her house to meet Yugi at his house.
