Thanks again everyone.

Yugi's Sad Life
"Well you see Yami...." Joey began
---------------------------------------------
It was a sunny Monday morning when the buzz of an alarm clock went off disturbing the peace and quiet of the quiet game shop. A small hand darted out from under the warm covers to stop that annoying noise, then quickly retreated back to the warm and comfort of the blankets. Then a loud voice from downstairs yelled "Yugi? Time to get up or you will be later for school." "Coming Grandpa" Yelled Yugi before finally falling (literally) out of bed. I wish I didn't have to go to school today, I have no friends, no one likes me to them I am just a punching bag or someone to laugh at Yugi thought miserably while getting ready for another painful day of school.
Yugi Moto was a 16 year old boy he had big amethyst(sp?) eyes and multicolored hair. It was magenta tips, then black with blond bangs outlining his round face. It made him look like a child of 8 or 9..not 16 and he hated that. He was short for his age and that made him the target of bullies, tricks and teasing.
Yugi was so lost in his own thoughts as he was walking to school that he wasn't paying attention to where he was going. Suddenly he ran into someone and fell back onto the sidewalk. He fearfully looked up to see who he ran into. Oh no, not him Yugi thought. It was Tai.
"Well, Well, Well what have we here? If it isn't little, pathetic Yugi. I can't believe I was once your friend. What was I thinking?" Exclaimed Tai as he grabbed Yugi off the ground by his neck and held him up in the air. And I thought today was going to be boring thought Tai Now I get to have some fun
"Well runt are you going to apologize for running into me?" Tai said.
"I-I-I'm so-so-sorry" Studdered Yugi.
"Not good enough runt." Smiled Tai as he started to punch Yugi in the stomach. He let Yugi fall to the ground. Yugi curled up into a ball trying to shield himself from the attack. Tai getting annoyed started to kick Yugi as hard as he could. Yugi cried out and tried to get into a smaller ball. After awhile he got bored and left Yugi alone on the sidewalk and headed for school. When Yugi didn't feel anymore kicks he slowly looked up. Tai was gone. Yugi slowly and painfully pulled himself to his feet and limped to school. He barely made it to class when the bell rang. He went to his desk in the back of the class by the window and plopped down, thankful for the rest.
The teacher walk in a began the boring lesson after taking attendance. His teacher Mr.Larson was a man in his late 30's. He was a bald man and a strict and mean teacher. Suddenly someone to Yugi's right started to whisper to his friend beside him.
"Look at the freak, he's an 8 year old Frankenstein." Joey said laughing to his friend Tristan "His hair looks like he stuck his finger in a light socket." The two friends quietly laughed at poor Yugi.
Yugi hung his head and tried to pay attention to his teacher. "Now class.." The teacher began "..When I call your name please come to the front and pick up your graded assignments. While your waiting for your name to be called please read the chapter and do the questions at the end" Then His teacher started to call students to get their assignments. Yugi got up when his name was called and made his way to Mr. Larson. He was not paying attention and someone stuck their foot out. Poor Yugi tripped over the foot and fell to the ground with a loud thud.
"Yugi.." His teacher yelled "Quit disturbing the class and get up here and get your assignment."
"Y-Y-yes sir" Yugi said quietly. He limped his way to the front and to the teacher. Mr. Larson gave Yugi is paper and a stern look. "Now take your seat and finish the homework I gave you.." He began.. "Anymore interruptions and you will go to the principal office. Understand?"
"Y-Y-yes sir" Yugi said again. He took his assignment and went back to his desk. The rest of the class period went uneventful and Yugi was thankful when the bell rang. He waited for the rest of the class to leave then he made his way to his next class.
(The rest of Yugi's day was uneventful so I will skip ahead to the end of the day)
Yugi was thankful when the bell rang signaling that school was finally over. He got out of his seat and went to his locker to get the books he needed for tonight's homework. He took his time getting his books so that he could avoid the bullies that liked to wait for him after school. Yugi sighed in relief when his home was in sight. He made it home without a confrontation with a bully for the first time since he started highschool. He smiled when he saw his grandpa outside sweeping the front step. Yugi was carful to hide his limp from his grandfather. He didn't want his grandpa to worry about him.
"Hello Yugi.." Solomon smiled.. "How was school today?"
"Hi grandpa, same as usual" Yugi said smiling for the first time that day. He didn't want to tell his grandpa about the bullies. He hated to put his problems on other people. Yugi hated for people to worry about him. He went past Solomon and into the game shop, then upstairs to his room. While he was starting his homework he heard Solomon calling him to dinner.
"Yugi, time to eat. Come on now before it gets cold." Solomon yelled
"Coming Grandpa" Replied Yugi. He put his books away and headed downstairs.
When Yugi left his room he smelt his grandfather wonderful cooking. They sat down at the dinner table to eat. Solomon looked worriedly at his grandson. He knew something was bother the boy, but he also knew that Yugi hated to bother others with his problems.
"Yugi.." Solomon began.
At first Yugi didn't hear his grandfather. Solomon tried again..
"Yugi.." Yugi was not responding.
Then it clicked as to why his grandson wasn't listening to him. Solomon was sitting on Yugi's left. Yugi was deaf in his left ear. Solomon shook his head. How could I have forgotten He thought to himself I completely forgot that after the beating Yugi received from his father, He lost all hearing in his left ear after getting hit extremely hard in the head by a baseball bat. I still can't believe my son would do that to his own child. Solomon decided to tap Yugi on his shoulder.
Yugi looked up from his food and smiled at his grandfather. "Yes, Grandpa"
"What's wrong Yugi? And don't say nothing because I can tell that something is bother you."
"Nothing is wrong Grandpa, I'm fine" Yugi put a fake smile on his face so as not to worry him. Solomon could tell the smile was fake but decided not to press the issue further or he would upset Yugi. After dinner Solomon called Yugi into the family room. They both sat on the couch. "Stay here Yugi, I will be right back. I have something for you." Solomon said as he left the room. "Ok, Grandpa" Yugi replied while searching for the remote. He turned on the TV and started to channel surf looking for something interesting to watch. He found his favorite show was on. He happily sat back on the couch to watch Fear Factor. Just then his grandfather came in and sat on the couch next to him making sure to stay on his right side. He could not figure out how Yugi could watch that show, especially the parts when the contestants had to eat something disgusting. "Yugi.." Solomon said to get Yugi's attention.. Yugi looked away from the TV to look at his grandfather.
"Here, I got this from Egypt and since you love puzzles I thought you might like to try and solve it. It's a very hard puzzle just to warn you." Yugi took the package from his grandfather and smiled at him. "Thanks Grandpa." Yugi said. It was a golden box with hieroglyphics all over it. He opened it up and saw lots of golden pieces inside. "Wow! Thanks Grandpa." He said as he examined the pieces. Yugi got up quickly hugged his grandfather then ran upstairs to his room. Solomon laughed at his hyper young grandson's antics and yelled after him "You're welcome Yugi, now don't stay up too late. You have school tomorrow." "Okay Grandpa, I won't." Yugi yelled back.
Yugi ran straight to his room. He wanted to start on the puzzle right away. After a few hours he had the puzzle almost half way completed. Why did grandpa say this was difficult? Yugi thought Its only been a few hours and look how much I already have done. Yugi looked at his clock. Wow its already 9:30, I should probably finish the little bit of homework that I have left. Yugi put the puzzle away and started to finish his homework. Just as he was putting his books in his backpack his grandfather yelled up to him.
"Yugi, its time for bed now. You have school tomorrow." Yelled Solomon from the family room.
"Okay grandpa, I am going to bed now. Goodnight." Yugi replied.
"Goodnight Yugi, see you in the morning" Grandpa answered.
Yami stopped walking. Joey at first didn't notice but when he did he stopped at looked at Yami.
"Joey..." Yami began... "I didn't know that Yugi was deaf in one ear, how could he hide it so well?"
"Yugi is pretty good at hiding things he doesn't want people to know. If he is paying attention and knows that your there he turns his head slightly to the side so he can hear you, also he learned to lipread very well." Joey replied. "Its when he is not paying attention that you have to tap him on the shoulder." Joey thought for a minute. "Yami, no offence, but I am really surprised that you couldn't tell. As his other half can't you sense these things, or tell that he is hiding anything?"
Yami didn't reply right away and Joey looked at him. Wow Joey thought He looks like he is a million miles away. Joey tapped Yami on the shoulder to get his attention. Yami looked at him.
"I was just thinking.." Yami answered.. "I really thought that I knew Yugi, but now I feel like I know nothing about him" Yami hung his head in shame. I can't believe how little I actually know about Yugi. Joey is right, as his other half I should of known he was keeping something from me. Joey could tell that Yami was deep in thought so he decided to let Yami think.
What kind of Yami am I? Yugi is my friend, my other half and I know nothing about him Yami noticed that Joey was staring at him.
"Joey, please continue with the story. I need to know more about Yugi. I feel so guilty that I know nothing about him." Yami finally said.
"Are you sure?" Joey questioned. Yami nodded. "Okay.." Joey said.
