Chapter Twenty-Nine
When Helga and Sasha got home, they went into Helga and Roland's room, and in the back of Helga's closet; they hung the Wedding Gown and dress
Helga turned to Sasha and said, "Monday, why don't you have Bakura bring you here for dinner, that way you can spend the night and in the morning we can both get ready for your Wedding."
(Sasha never really knew her mom, she was always sick and her father worked long hours, so an old woman would look after Sasha when she was little, then when she turned twelve, her mom died and her father never remarried, but he never came home very often either, so she had to raise herself.
When Sasha turned fifteen, her dad committed suicide, she ran off, and started living in old abandoned buildings, that where Bakura met her, he took some of his savings and got her a small one-bedroom apartment to live in.
When she found a good paying job, she tried to repay Bakura back, but he told her, "Put it away and use it to get a better place to live, and that's exactly what she did.
They've been going out ever since that night he met her in that broken down old building and he vowed then and there that she wouldn't ever have to live in a rat hole like that ever again.
She wished that she had a mother like Helga, one who would love her no matter what.)
Helga and Roland are the only two people to know how they first met, she was embarrassed to have them know, but like Helga said, "We've all been in that place so you never have to feel like you are alone; you now belong to this family."
Helga and Sasha went into the kitchen and as they were going to sit down, they heard men's voices coming from out in the back yard, Sasha asked, "What are they doing out there?"
Helga smiled and said, "That's for you to ask Bakura, I'm sworn to secrecy." Sasha laughed and said, "Can I have a glass of your great lemonade please."
Helga knew when she turned her back, Sasha would probably open the door to go outside, but she'd find the door blocked. Sasha said, "What's going on, I can't open this door."
Just then the door opened and in walked Roland, Bakura, Marik and Yami and they were all filthy from working, Helga said, "Go get cleaned up, and Bakura, your fiancée wants to know what's going on out there.
Sasha turned beet red and she stuck her tongue out at Helga, and that caused everyone to burst out laughing.
When Sasha realized what she did, she started slapped her hand over her mouth and tried to apologize to Helga.
But she said, "Hon, it's alright, you've seen us around her, we're always doing things to make the other ones laugh, so just forget about it."
Helga went over to Sasha and hugged her and said, "Its really alright, now how about if you help me fix those men and us some of that lemonade."
When Roland and the others came back into the kitchen, they found tall glasses of ice cold lemonade sitting on the table.
Bakura went over to where Sasha was sitting and standing behind her, he leaned down and kissed her and he whispered something that made he smile.
After they all drank their lemonade, Bakura looked at Sasha and said, "Dad and my brothers helped me make something in the back yard that I know you'll love, lets go outside, I want to see what you think, mom please come with us too."
They walked outside and there under the huge Mulberry Tree, they had built a platform with an arch stretching across it and a trellis attached to the arch. Bakura said, "The trellis and arch will be covered with your favorite flowers."
Sasha threw her arms around Bakura's neck and gave him a kiss, and then she said, "It's beautiful, I want to thank all of you for what you did, and Helga isn't it beautiful."
Helga walked over to where Roland was standing and when she heard what Sasha said, she smiled and said, "Yes, it's beautiful." Marik then asked Sasha, "What's your favorite flower?" Sasha looked up into Bakura's face and said, "Pink Rose Buds."
Yami then asked, "Bakura, where are you going to find that many Pink Rose Buds to cover that whole arch?"
Roland said, "The florist."
Helga started laughing and then the others followed. Yami glared at his dad and said, "Very funny."
Marik then said, "Well you did ask didn't you."
Yami looked like he wanted to tear into Marik so Helga then said, "Boys that's enough, now come inside I want to show Bakura the Wedding Invitations, Benny did a beautiful job printing them."
They all went back inside and as they sat around the kitchen table, Helga went and got one of the Invitations and passed it around, everyone agreed that Benny did a great job.
This what the Invitation says:
Roland and Helga O'Brien

Reception to follow.
Helga said, "I want all of you to take some of these Invitations and give them to your friends, that way I'll know how many are coming and I can start preparing the food for the Reception and Ishizu and I can bake the Wedding Cake.
Helga said, "We gave one to Hugo and Victoria, and Benny and Michelle.
That leaves; twenty-two and we need one for Marik and Armando, Yami and Anthony, Ishizu and Vincent and Mai and Samuel.
Then Tea, Ryou, Malik, Yugi, Mokie, Seto and Joey will each want to get one.
And of course, your father and I want to have one, and Bakura and Sasha will want one so that leaves three.
Roland said, "We need to get hold of your brothers, they'll want to come and of course will want an Invitation. So that takes care of all the Invitations.
As for the food, hell I'd make enough to feed a small army, the way that our kids and your brothers eat, we'll be lucky if we even get anything."
Helga laughed and said, "Alright then, when Ishizu and Mai gets here, Sasha and Bakura can help us plan what food they want to serve their guests at the Reception."
Bakura and Sasha discussed what food that they'd like to serve their guest, and Bakura said, "Mom, would it be too hard for you to cook a large roast have some red potatoes and maybe some snap green beans and some of your famous rolls?"
Helga smiled and said, "If that's what you want then that's exactly what I'll cook, now what about the cake, how many tiers do you want it?"
Bakura looked puzzled and Sasha giggled and said, "Would a three tier cake be too hard for you and your daughters to make?"
Just then, Ishizu and Mai came into the room and Ishizu said, "No it wouldn't."
Then Mai looked over the menu for the Reception Dinner and she closed her eyes and then she said, "Alright, we need to go to Sallie's Butcher Shop and get the roast.
We need to go to Lettie's Farmers Market will have the best snap beans, and we have all the ingredients to make the rolls here at the house."
Roland said, "Well let's go, we have a lot of places to go." So Ishizu and Mai went with their dad to get the things that was needed.
Helga said, "Bakura, can you bring Sasha over Monday for dinner that way she can spend the night here and the next morning, and won't have to drive her herself."
So after everything was decided, Helga said, "Have all you guys and your dad been fitted for your tuxedos yet?"
Bakura said, "Mom, don't get all excited. Yesterday we all went to Danny's and got our Tuxedos ordered, and the young ones got their suits."
Helga let out a sigh and she said, "I know that Ishizu, Mai, Tea and Serenity all have got their dresses, so now everything is ready, now all we have to do is wait for the big day."
