The Father - Chapter Five
There is a bothersome man. What does he want with me?
What is his purpose. Of visiting me??
Whatever he wants with me.
I hope he stays away.

Alright... Bye, Yugi..." Joey waved. He exits the Motou shop with a satisfied smile.
"Psst..." something called out to him.
"Huh?" Joey looked around. 'Maybe I should go to an ear doctor...' he thought.
"Psst... in here..." the voice whispers again. He finds the poor man from his meeting of the tickets behind the bushes.
"It's you!! You're the one that gave me those-"
"Yes, my boy. Shh- we must talk where no one can hear us," the man whispers.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I must tell you something..."
"TELL ME WHAT?!" Joey exploded. "For the thirteenth time, please tell me!!"
"Never mind."
Joey face faulted (the famous "anime" fall) on the floor. "WHAT?!" he yelled with disbelief.
The man paused. "Hmm... I'm sorry. I must be having the wrong person."
Joey's face was boiling with anger. His fists start to shake.
The man, realizing this, immediately says, "I mean... I didn't want you, I wanted to talk to your parents..."
"WHAT?! WHAT HAS MY PARENTS HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS?!"
"Calm down, boy. There is something that your parents and I-"
"NO, YOU DON'T!! THERE IS NO REASON FOR YOU TO TALK TO THEM!! WHY WOULD THEY WANT TO TALK TO A FILTHY-"
"Shut your mouth, boy. You don't know who you're talking to."
"YEA, SO I DON'T KNOW WHO I'M TALKING TO!! SO, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO, HUH?!" He takes out his fists.
"Don't fool around with me, boy..." the man mutters under his breath.
"So, what if I am messing around with ya, huh huh h-"
Suddenly, Joey was punched square in the jaw. "Owww..." he whines.
"I'll repeat it again, boy. I'm not the person you would want to 'play' around with."
"Then what do you want," Joey whined while rubbing his jaw.
"I just wanted to talk to your parents."
"For what reason?" Joey eyed.
The man sighed. "A reason."

As Joey opened the door to his house, his father, mother, and sister came to greet him.
"MOM? SIS? What are you doing here?" Joey's eyes popped out.
"Hey, Joey," Serenity greeted. "Mom and dad wanted to talk about something. And who's that behind you?"
Completely shocked, Joey forgot about the man. But Joey didn't have to worry. The man came straightforward and introduced himself.
"Hello," he bowed.
Mr. and Mrs. Wheeler looked at each other with fear in their eyes. They both had the same thoughts. 'It is... him...'
