Abandoned
Chapter2
Anzu Mazaki smiled. She was standing outside of Jonouchi's old apartment. Cell phone in hand. She dialed Jonouchi's number, and waited for him to pick up.
"Hello…?" came the drowsy voice. Anzu giggled. "Hullo? Who is this?"
"Look outside your apartment!" giggled Anzu, and she heard shuffling on the phone.
"Yeah, so what?" came the confused reply. "Listen lady, is this a prank call?"
Anzu blinked.
"Jonouchi, it's me, Anzu. Now stop playing around and open the door!" exclaimed Anzu angrily. "Where are you?"
"Anzu… Where exactly are you? I'm in California USA with Mai. I moved 'bout a month after you did…" Anzu blinked, and turned around.
"Oh…" said Anzu softly. She hung up the phone. Well, she'd just try this with Honda next!
Yugi Mutou sighed and went down the stairs, to meet his grandfather.
"I didn't break the computer this time." Said Yugi dully as he grabbed the broom and went outside to sweep. Sugoru shook his head sadly.
"What has happened to you Yugi…?" whispered Sugoru softly.
"I was abandoned!" came the harsh reply from outside the shop.
Sugoru shook his head. Why couldn't Yugi understand? If only Anzu hadn't left, even if everyone else was gone…
"He must really love her…" said Sugoru softly. He turned and headed up to Yugi's room, to clean up things. Yugi rarely had a tantrum, but when he did… 'No… Tantrum is too childish. Yugi… Is just sad… Yes…'
"I'm finished with the sweeping!" came Yugi's voice. Sugoru stopped and called down the stairs.
"All right! I left some money on the counter, go out for something to eat!" called Sugoru, and as an afterthought. "And bring me some ice cream, would ya? An old man needs his ice cream…"
Sugoru smiled when he heard Yugi's laugh, glad he had gotten his lonely grandson to smile again, even only if for a minute.
