Chapter 22: It's Time

'A few days later after I've gotten accepted into the writing industry, I've been doing great with it. I've gotten numerous assistance with editing and content that makes people wish to have my books. I'm so thrilled and overwhelmed with the desire to entertain and bring light to this world through writing. It's been hard work, but that has been paying off due to countless of recognitions and excelling through creativity.

I've nourished and evolved thoroughly that makes me a more narrow focus author. I can honestly say that my life has turned exponentially and has become more successful within a matter of just a few days! I have all my friends to thank as well as Mr. Omni for giving me this amazing and wonderful experience and job.

Anyways, it looks like the only thing that's left to do is let my grandpa see this growth. I wish I could tell him, I miss him and the aroma he filled when he walked into a room, the room being mines. His gray hair and beard that tickled me when we hug together. The love and compassion he moved when he spoke to his friends and his family. He shall always be the person I want to always impress.

Maybe one day I'll get to tell him that, maybe.'

Yugi Mutou, July 2nd 2036

Yugi finished writing once more in his journal as he sat back in his chair at his desk. He had been saving up money while at the company for an apartment that him and Yami could share. He had also gotten news from Yami about his wonderful new hobby that soon would have him a deal with "音楽曲" soon. He was over-ecstatic about Yami's new career and his plans for him and Yugi. Things was going smoothly for the both of them, the last month wasn't the best but Yugi always looked up to the present whether than the past.
He found it to be much easier than to dwell on something that couldn't be undone because it already happened.

It was best to move on and so he did, which help him greatly because he didn't have anything bad to feel. At least so he believed, he looked over putting his pencil down at a picture of him and his grandfather. He touched the image and soon got this deep pain in his heart. Crying wouldn't solve anything, and being hurt was all he could feel for when he looked at it. "Grandpa..." he said softly to himself, as he slowly put the picture down and then sighed with a sad expression and tone of voice. Overall, he was happy for his succession but wish his grandpa could see this amazing growth.

It's been weeks since he went to see his grandpa, but over the past weeks he would send gift baskets, and small things like that for him in the hospital. He was happy he was doing something in a way to show he still cared for him each and every day. The anticipation for his grandfathers condition thicken by the sudden urge of remorse and guilt he had that night when he saw him. It was like a recorder that played in his mind endlessly over and over again. Yugi then looked at the time it now being 10:30am he bored and alone as Yami was out and at work as usual.

Yugi tapping his pen as he didn't know what to do and write. He felt like he was running out of things to say and how to feel. Perhaps, it was because he was clouded with so many emotions and feelings it felt like things was happening all at once. Time was skipping and soon enough he'd be having money to move out and move in a better place. He and Yami did debate about it at first because, Yugi didn't wish to leave his grandpa behind. If his grandpa did manage to make it alive he wants to be there for him. That would mean taking care of him and postponing a lot of things in his life just for his grandfather.

The thought didn't sit well with Yami as for Yami he felt that yes his grandpa would need help but he shouldn't ruin his life by not doing anything besides staying with his grandpa. In a way, that made Yugi upset with Yami just to hear that come out of his mouth, and yet he felt he had a huge point in the end. Even his grandpa wouldn't want that either, and that just made Yugi wish to cry because of it. He has already lost his parents at such a young age and he didn't really remember them once. His grandpa was always there, no one else but his grandpa. He felt like they've had so many adventures and discovered things together and without his grandpa Yami would've never been found in the puzzle.
