Yami cooked dinner. He put a lot of effort into it. Turkey. Potatoes. Vegetables. Everything. He was in the kitchen for most of the morning.
"Yami, let me help. It's too much for one person," said Yugi, going into the kitchen.
"No, aibou. You go back in the sitting room. Relax," said Yami.
Sometimes, it's pointless trying to argue with Yami. When it came to cooking, no one ever dared. Yugi sighed and went back to the sitting room. There was nothing good on TV which made his wait for dinner even longer. He turned off the TV.
Dinner was finally ready. Yugi was starving. As soon as he sat down at the kitchen table, he dug into his food. His mouth dropped after one bit. The food was the best he ever tasted. He knew that Yami was good at cooking but not this good.
"Are you ok, aibou?" Yami laughed.
"This is amazing!" said Yugi.
"Thank you, Yugi. How come you never make that face every other time I cook for you?"
"Because this time, you cooked better than every other time."
Yami laughed.
"I think I should cook Christmas dinner for you every day. Then I'll get a compliment like that every day," he said.
Before Yugi and Yami had finished eating, Yami's phone started to ring. He stood up and went over to the counter to pick it up. Instead of rejecting the call, he answered.
"Hello?" he said, running out of the kitchen and into the sitting room.
Yugi was left alone in the kitchen. He didn't want to be nosey and listen in on the conversation.
He finished his dinner before Yami came back. Yami was on the phone for a while. Yugi hoped nothing was wrong. He knew it was an invation of privacy vut he wanted to know what was going on. He stepped out of the kitchen and walked down the hall to the sitting room. The door was open a little bit. Yugi looked inside. Yami was sitting on the sofa with his phone up to his ear.
"I was planning on telling Yugi after Christmas. He's so happy today. I don't want to see him upset. Not now," Yami said, quietly.
"Tell me what?" Yugi asked, pushing the door.
"I'm sorry. I'll call you back," said Yami, looking at Yugi and ending the call.
