"This is talking"
'These are thoughts'
Yugi sat on his bed, looking at his teddy bear. He'd had it sense he was born; his mother had bought it for him. Aside from pictures, it was his favourite thing in the world that reminded him of his mother. He hugged it tightly and looked sadly out the window. "Mommy won't be here to play tonight teddy..." He mumbled as he looked out at the moon.
His gaze suddenly fell on the teddy. "Why? Because she had to go away teddy... Where?" Yugi looked uneasy. "She went to heaven teddy." He told the stuffed animal. He knew in his heart the teddy wasn't alive, but he couldn't talk to anyone else right now. It gave him the comfort he needed. The conversation continued for a while before Yugi went downstairs, still hugging the stuffed animal.
Jirito looked over at the stairs and glared at Yugi as he walked down. There it was again, the hate. Whether he wanted to hate Yugi or not, he couldn't help it. Yugi cringed slightly when he met his father's gaze. He didn't really want to go over to his father, but he'd forgotten something on the coffee table.
He slowly walked over in front of the couch his father was sitting on, all the while feeling his gaze burning into him. He picked something up from the table, but his teddy suddenly disappeared from his arms. Looking back he saw his father looking at it. "Um, daddy? Can I have teddy back?" He asked, then quickly added. "Please?" He didn't want to anger his father in any way.
"What's this thing?" Jirito asked in a sharp tone, which caused Yugi to shiver. "I-It's my teddy daddy." Yugi stuttered uncomfortably. Jirito glared down at Yugi and threw the stuffed toy across the room, yelling at him. "Your mother passed away and all you're doing is playing with toys?!"
Yugi fell back from shock, not expecting his father to yell at him. He curled up slightly from fear as he looked up at his father. "But daddy-" He started in a weak and terrified voice.
"I guess she wasn't important to you, was she?! You don't care that she's gone!" Jirito yelled angrily. He turned and stormed out of the room yelling back. "You should care, it was your fault after all!"
Yugi closed his eyes and lowered his head. It hurt... it hurt him that his father was so angry. He opened his eyes and crawled to the other side of the room, picking up his teddy and curling up in the corner, looking at it. "Teddy... what have I done?" He asked before burying his face in the toy and crying.
Still, though it was the hardest thing for him to ever do, he went, to pay his last respects. He remained in complete silence during the ceremony, the only noises he made were sobs, as he felt his heart breaking with ever minute. What made it even more unbearable, was that Yugi's father was blaming him for the accident, that if he hadn't cut himself his mother would still be their with him. Yugi believed this. It was his fault his mother was gone forever. He refused to speak to anyone without reason, as his soul was tortured with guilt.
It was too much for someone of his age to take.
Yugi's grandfather, Solomen, was there, but he seemed more concerned about Yugi then anything else. The four-year-old was suffering from the loss of his mother, and Jirito wasn't improving things by ignoring him.
It was as if Yugi had lost both parents in that car crash.
He couldn't believe that merely a week ago, everything was better, his family was happy. Laughing, playing, and were just there for each other. He shut his tear-filled eyes tight and lowered his head. "I love you mommy... I.. I n-never wanted to h-hurt you..." He whispered through sobs.
Jirito was leaning against a tree a little further back while Solomen was walking over to Yugi. As Yugi turned to his grandfather and hugged him, crying into his shoulder, Jirito felt the fresh feeling of hate. Every time he saw Yugi, every time he heard the little boys voice, all he could think of was the car crash, and how it had all happened. The anger grew with every moment, mixed with sadness.
He couldn't take it. He couldn't be around Yugi anymore. He turned quickly and walked at a quick pace towards his car.
Yugi opened his eyes slowly as he leaned his head on his grandfather's shoulder. He saw his father walking away, only faster then usual. "Daddy?" He raised his head in confusion. He looked at his grandfather, expecting an answer, but he was obviously as confused as Yugi was. Looking back, he saw his father getting into the car and slamming the door shut. Then he heard the engine starting.
Yugi's eyes widened and he ran towards the car. The engine roared as the car moved out of it's parking area. "Daddy!" Yugi called out, but the car didn't stop, it backed out and stopped for a second before it began to drive forward again. Yugi tried to quicken his pace, but he tripped and landed on the driveway behind the car. He pushed himself to his hands and knees and looked up, fresh tears in his eyes.
The car was already on the road, and when it rounded the corner it would be out of sight. As he watched the car disappear around the corner, he helplessly reached his hand out towards the car and called again as tears feel down his cheeks. "Daddy!"
Through the painful thought of losing both his parents... Yugi Mouto felt his heart shatter into a million pieces.
