Chapter Three
After the babies had been fed, burped and changed, Solomon agreed that he would stay home and take care of his great-grandsons while Yami, Yugi, Joey and Raphael went to the Wheeler house and sort through the things there and Joey could figure out what he wanted to keep or give away.
Yami and Yugi drove over in their car while Joey rode over behind Raphael on his hog and when they got there and Joey opened the door, memories began to swarm over Joey and he stood still and could almost hear his mom call for him to come help with something or hear his dad call for him to help with the garbage and he sat down as tears ran down his face.
Yami and Yugi didn't really know what to do or say so Raphael sat down next to Joey and he softly said "Memories are the doorway to the past, the present or the future and when ever you want to revisit them just close your eyes and you'll be right there living among your memories."
Joey looked at Raphael and he wiped the tears from Joey's face with the gentlest hand and then he said "Where do we begin?"
Joey stood up and said "First we'll need the boxes from the car and I guess we can start here in the living room."
By the time they were half way done Joey's stomach began to grumble and all of them started laughing so Joey got out his cell phone and ordered pizza and some soda. After they ate they focused on trying to get the rest of the house done but it began to get dark so Joey said "Can we come back tomorrow and finish?"
Yami, Yugi and Raphael said that they'd all come back and before he locked the door again he looked around the empty room and he smiled when he thought he saw his father standing there smiling and giving him a thumbs up. He locked the door and they went back to the Game Shop and as Yugi and Yami took care the babies, Raphael asked Solomon if he could help fix dinner and Solomon said "That sounds great, what are we having?"
Raphael asked if he had ground beef, some pasta, seasonings and he whispered something and Solomon laughed out loud and nodded that he had that too." So Solomon and Joey sat there and watched Raphael cook dinner and Joey couldn't take his eyes off Raphael and Solomon chuckled to himself as he watched Joey stare at the young man with the great physique. When Yami came into the room Solomon motioned for him to be quiet and Yami smiled as he too watched Joey and then they got up and left to go back into the living room and they both chuckled to themselves.
When dinner was ready they all told Raphael how great dinner was and he smiled and said "Well thanks. It's an old recipe that my mom use to let me help her with." He then looked at Joey who smiled at him because he knew now exactly what Raphael was talking about when he mentioned about memories to Joey.
Solomon asked "How much did you get done?" Joey told him "We have a little to do in the house then we have the garage and we're done and I have a lot of stuff to give to charity and I have a lot to go through to figure out what I want to take back with me or keep for myself."
Solomon then said "I think that all of you need to get good nights sleep so that you can all get a fresh start in the morning." So they all said good-night and soon they were all asleep.
Little did they know that the same dark limo had been watching what they were doing and it was outside the Game Shop right now and the person inside the limo wasn't very happy that someone else was near his puppy, he was his and no one else could have him.
Bright and early the next day Yami, Yugi, Joey and Raphael were on their way to the Wheeler home to finish their work when they noticed that someone had broken into the house and the things that they had boxed up yesterday had been broken into and all of it had been destroyed. Yami took out his phone and called the Police and when they arrived they told them "We have been having a rash of robberies in this neighborhood. We'll look into it and hopefully we can find out who did this." What the people that did this didn't know was that all the things that Joey wanted to keep they took back to the Game Shop with them, so those things were safe.
Then Joey said "The garage I wonder if they broke into that too?" The Policeman went with them and when Joey opened the garage they were all mystified, nothing in the garage had been taken and the Policeman said "This is the strangest burglary that I've ever seen in all the years on the force."
Joey walked around inside the garage and he said "What in the hell is going on? Why just wreck the inside of the house and leave all this good stuff in here alone?"
Then he looked outside and saw the same black limo that had been outside this house and also outside the Game Shop and he then knew exactly who was to blame for all of this, but why? About the same time Joey looked outside so did Yami and he too knew whose limo that was and Joey looked at him as if to say "please don't say anything till I can figure out what he is up to." Yami nodded that he'd be quiet for the time being.
Joey walked to the back of the garage and took out his cell phone and called the private number to Kaiba Corp. and got hold of Mokuba and when Mokie heard Joey's voice he got teary eyed and he said "Joey why are you calling here for?"
Joey then said "I have a message for your damn brother, tell him to stay away from me, my house and all my family's things or I swear that I'll call the Police and file a harassment charge against him!"
Mokuba was surprised by what Joey was saying and he said "Joey, Seto at home with his family right now, what makes you believe that he's the one?"
Joey then said "If you call his private cell number and use the GPS you'll find him parked across the street from my late father's home right now."
There was silence and then Mokie said "I guess you're right, he's there even though he says that he's at home right now. Joey I don't know what to tell you is going on, but I'm going to talk to him tonight and try to find out I promise and Joey I'm sorry for anything that Seto has done to you." Then the line went dead.
When Joey looked outside the limo was gone and Yami whispered "It left about five minutes ago."
Before they went back to the Game Shop they took all the things that Joey wanted and the things for charity.
When they all got back to the Game Shop, Raphael asked to talk to Joey alone and when they went outside Raphael said "I saw the limo and I know who it is but I'm going to let you talk to him but if he doesn't leave you alone then I'm talking to him and he won't like the way I talk."
Joey looked at Raphael and he said "Why are you getting involved with all of this?"
Raphael then took Joey into his arms and kissed him and then he said "Does that answer your question?"
Joey smiled at him and then they both held each other and were kissing when Solomon went outside to say it's dinner time. He left them alone and walked back inside with a Cheshire like grin on his face.
