An Easy Morning
Kiri- Fala, isn't it weird how the weekdays have the hardest mornings to
overcome, and then the weekend comes they are just so easy to get through?
Fala- Yeah, I know what you mean, sort of.
Kiri- What do you mean sort of?
Fala- Well if ya'll would wake me up in time for the episodes than it would
be a very easy morning. 'Cause then I would know what ya'll were talking
about!
**Mai**
She woke up slowly and leisurely. After all she had nothing better to do. She got out of bed, showered, and dressed. She went over to the mirror to put on her make-up. There was a big note taped to the mirror. It read:
Take Serenity out for a morning on the town. Show her the park. -Mai
That's right! She was supposed to take Joey's sister Serenity out for breakfast, to get to know her better. Quickly she pulled on one of her best outfits. "If Joey I gonna' see me, I want to make him regret not telling me he likes me." She said to her reflection.
She giggled. Than a thought came to her mind.
What if Joey doesn't like me that way?
She stopped cold. She really liked Joey. She also liked how and what their close friendship was. She didn't want to ruin it. She grabbed another, more regular set of clothes and changed. It was around 8:00 in the morning when Mai pulled up in front of Joey's mom's apartment. She hurried to their door and knocked. Joey had said that he would be over early in the morning to spend some quick time with his sister before Mai took her out. Joey opened the door.
"Yeah? What is..," he stopped and faintly blushed, "Oh! It's you Mai."
"Yea! Just me." She said.
"You look good. I mean you look ok. I mean," he couldn't get the words out right. Mia laughed slightly. He blushed again.
"You look well yourself Joseph." She replied smartly. "Is Serenity ready?"
"Ready? Ready for wha... Oh yeah! She's waiting at the table. I'll tell her you're here. Serenity! Mai's here!" he yelled. Mai smiled.
" Ready to go Serenity?" Mai asked the seemingly shy girl.
"Ready!" Serenity said brightly. "Where are we going?"
"A small trip around town, breakfast, the park, arcades and mall! Sound good?"
"Yeah. Lets go." Serenity said as she waved to her brother. While Serenity was turned to say goodbye to her brother, Mai couldn't help calling to him, "See ya' later hon!" and wink at him, just to see how many more shades of red he could go before he turned maroon.
**Marik**
Is something burning?
Marik opened his eyes and looked around. He wasn't afraid, but the smells made him worry for the safety of his sister. He opened his door and looked around the small house. Nothing. Then he heard noise in the kitchen.
"Of course." He sighed and smiled to himself. "It's just Ishizu trying to make breakfast again."
The burnt toast smell was filling the house fast so, as silently as he could, e opened the windows and the balcony doors. Finally he could breath. He stepped onto his room balcony looking over the city.
It's hard to believe that I once wanted to take over this wondrous surface world. I wonder what father would think if he could see me now? He stopped and shook his head. No! I mustn't think about the past. It is gone. He looked towards the part of town where he know Seto, Yami, Yugi, and Yugi's friends were. I must stop tryin to change the past and start trying to save the future.
"Marik! Marik are you up yet?" he heard his sister call.
"I'm up Ishizu." He called back. I'm up sister, he thought.
He walked into the hall and into the kitchen where he saw Ishizu standing over the burnt breakfast.
"It's ok sis." He said as the flopped down onto a chair. She looked at him. "We can always pick up something. I could go out for some doughnuts."
"Are you sure?"
"Positive Sis. You push yourself too hard. Come on? My treat." He said with a grin.
"Oh, alright. But let's not make it a habit." She said grinning back.
They walked down the street and picked up some coffees and a bag of doughnut holes. As they walked out something familiar caught Marik's eye. Something going into the park. Could that have been Yami? He thought. No. It couldn't have been. Could it?
"Hey Ishizu." He called. "I have an idea. Want to eat in the park?"
"Sure." She replied.
