Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Puppy Love ❯ : Sodas and Discussions ( Chapter 7 )

Well here is chapter 7 of Puppy Love, I’m surprised at the hits I’m getting on this, despite my failure to update it properly. Sorry for the wait, I’ve been so busy, and being a senior this year doesn’t help. I’ve got so much things to do, and this fic has been on hiatus for months and months at least one or two.

Well, I probably shouldn’t blabber and I really should just get to it already, so here it is!

Chapter 7: Sodas and Discussions

A bird does not sing because it has an answer-- it sings because it has a song- Anonymous

“Good morning, Yugi.” Grandpa greeted him. “What’s on the old agenda today? Going to see those friends of yours? Oh, Seto Kaiba is supposed to be in this afternoon, checking on an order for dueling cards.

“He is?” Yugi beamed, happy to know that he would see Seto again.

He hadn’t seen Seto, Mokuba or even Noa Kaiba around for a very long time, ever since the last duel.

everyone’s been so busy and grown so far apart that they’ve only seen each other at duels or on the way to duels. It’s a wonder that they have remained friends that long, but Yugi, being Yugi, would never give up on his friends. That factor alone was enough for him.

He did call them every once in a while when they could and he sent them things for the holidays, even if they never sent anything back, but he understood that, he knew they were busy.

He hadn’t seen Kaiba in ages, but he was supposed to see Anzu for sodas...

“Actually, I have plans to go and eat with Anzu. “ He looked as if he was thinking for a moment. “If Kaiba shows up, then I’ll talk to him, but if he doesn’t show up in time, tell him I said hi, okay?”

“All right Yugi, you’d better get ready to go. It’s nearly eleven o’ clock.” He replied checking his watch.

“Well, I’d better get to opening the shop, or Kaiba will grow impatient and go away. “

Yugi went upstairs and dressed himself, making extra sure to look his best for his date with Anzu.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Yugi got dressed and gathered his things together. He checked his watch after getting ready. He had an hour to kill, so he decided to go down to the card shop and help his grandfather out if at all possible.

The pointy haired child walked down and stopped at the doorway. He looked down to see the seemingly perpetually happy Ginger wagging her tail and smiling her doggy smile at him, looking up at him with those brown eyes that once were filled with so much pain, now filled with peace and happiness.

“Hey there, Ginger.” The boy beamed at the large brown dog at his feet and bent down to give his happy friend a loving pat on the head. “ It’s ok, Ginger. You might not be able to walk right now, but you’ll get there. Keep trying and don’t give up, you got that?”

The young duelist arose to hear a bark.

“Huh?”

He looked at Ginger and smiled.

Afterwards, he went down and checked the clock, it seemed that only two minuets have passed.

** Well, you know what they say, time passes slower when you’re expecting something. ** He thought to himself.

For what seemed to be 30 minuets passed, he helped his grandfather around the shop. As he was reaching over to get someone a Battle Ox card, a familiar female showed up.

“Hey Yugi!” The bright and sunny voice said happily.

Yugi raised up slowly, holding the card in his hand.

“Huh?”

Yugi looked up, and standing behind the child in front of the desk was Anzu.

“Anzu!”

Anzu waved slightly. “Are you busy?”

“I was just helping Grandpa. “ Yugi replied as he handed the child in front of him the card.

“Don’t worry, Yugi.” His grandfather replied at the cash register. “I can take care of this myself.”

“You sure, Grandpa?”

“Positive, I used to do it all of the time when you went off with Joey and the guys. I’ll be just fine.”

“Ok, if your sure.”

“Bye Grandpa!”

“Good-bye Yugi! Take care!”

“I will!” Yugi yelled as he ran out of the door with Anzu.

“That’s my grandchild.” The old man beamed to himself.

At the soda shop, Yugi and Anzu sat at a small table with a window in the background, providing a view of the bustling streets of Domino City. The many people walked down the streets, performing their daily tasks. Many of the big business men and women were out on their lunch period. Some of them were even at the shop, even a couple of Kaiba’s so called “goons” were there, drinking sodas and talking of business.

“There sure are a lot of people here.” Anzu stated the obvious.

“I guess we picked the wrong time.” Yugi innocently put a hand behind his head and sweat dropped in exasperation.

“At least we don’t have to stand up, right?” Anzu wore the traditional happy anime eyes and pointed to a slightly peeved group who were forced to stand.

“It really is packed in here.” Yugi still stated the obvious.

“So, “ Anzu played with the straw of her milkshake. “How’s Ginger doing?”

“She’s doing great!” Yugi beamed. “She’s been recovering well, and I’m getting her acquainted with people so she’ll have a good home when she gets to be adopted. I’ve had her eating dry food and drinking lots of water. She was laying at the door when you came in, surprised that you didn’t go and pet her.”

“I guess I didn’t notice her. I was in a hurry to even get here, I had to pick out the dress and hurry to get ready. I had a real bad case where I had to rescue animals from a farm. It took 7 officers to apprehend the rascals!” She said playfully and winked at the boy, causing him to blush.

“So, I had to take a bath and all.” She slumped down in her chair and huffed.

“Whoo, what a day!”

“I’ll bet!”

“So, how did you shake taste?” Anzu asked.

“It was great. This place always makes the best shakes!”

“Right on! It’s hasn’t changed a bit in all of these years!”

“I remember when we used to come here as kids!”

“Yeah, and that one time that Jou tried to chug it down and it ended up on his face!”

They both laughed, recalling the memories of their past friends and the joys of their high school memories.
