Chapter Twenty-Three

When Mokie called and talked to Roland, Joey went to the kitchen to speak to Greta about if she could make up a picnic basket that they could take with them.

When Mokuba spoke to Roland, he told him about how he and Joey were going to go for a drive with two of their friends; but he didn’t expect to talk to his brother.

Mokuba tensed up a little when he heard Seto ask, “Mokuba what’s wrong.”

Mokuba took a deep breath not knowing where this conversation was going to go, and he said, “Nothings wrong, I just call to let Roland know that Joey and I are going on a drive and we’ve invited Ryou and Bakura to come along.”

Seto relaxed when he found out that nothing was wrong with his brother and then he said, “I’m so sorry that things have gotten so way out of hand, but I know that it won’t be to long before I will be coming home.

Mokie, when I get back we need to sit down and talk about all of this and I really need to talk to Joey about his intentions toward you.”

Mokuba didn’t want to get into an argument with Seto and so he said, “I agree that we need to talk and that you and Joey have to figure out if there is someway of you both getting along and what it is about him that you don’t like.”

Seto then said, “I miss you so very much and don’t for one instant that I’ve forgotten the love we have for each other, and that I want us to be brothers again like we use to be.”

Mokuba wiped away a few tears as he listened to what Seto was saying and then he said, “Big brother I love you too and that’s all I’ve ever wanted for us too. How are you doing now?”

Seto then said, “Better since that last nightmare which was the worse one yet. Roland was here for me and he helped chase away the boogie man, and I’m going to start talking to Peter again.”

Joey came back into the room and he saw Mokuba’s tears and he went over and sat down next to him and put his arm around his shoulders and Mokuba smiled at him and then he said, “Seto, I’ve got to go now, but I will call again in a few days and see how you are doing. Seto I love you and always will.”

Seto said, “Alright, and Mokie tell Joey that I said hello and talk to him about when I come back that I’d like to sit down and talk to him.” Then the line went dead.

Mokuba hung up the phone and he laid his head on Joey’s shoulder and he said, “Seto sounds so much better and he says that he’s going to begin talking to Peter again. Joey, Seto wants to you and him to sit down and talk when he gets home.”

Joey lifted Mokuba’s face, he kissed him, and he told him, “I think that it’s a good idea that Seto and I talk, maybe it will help him to accept us being together.”

Mokuba sat up and then he said, “Where did you go?”

“I went to talk to Greta and she’s going to make up a picnic basket for us to take on out drive, and I think that we had better get going, Ryou and Bakura will be waiting for us.” He said.

Mokuba stood up, he looked at Joey, and he said, “Where are we going?”

Joey smiled at him and he said, “Well that’s a surprise, so let’s go and stop asking questions.”

As they walked, to the kitchen, they were laughing and Greta looked up and she said, “I’ve put some of my fried chicken, a few sandwiches, two thermoses‘, one with lemonade and the other with some ice cold milk and there is some of my peach cobbler for dessert.”

They both hugged and gave her a kiss and then Joey picked up the basket and he said, “Here is my cell phone number, and we’ll probably be back late, so we’ll try to be quiet so that we don’t wake you.”

Greta then said, “Have fun you two and Joey drive careful please.”

They went outside and got into Joey’s car, he drove to Ryou’s, sure enough, they were waiting outside, and as he pulled up, Bakura said, “It’s about time you got here.”

Ryou smacked Bakura for being rude, they got into the back, Joey took off, and they were on their way.


Back in Tokyo:

Seto hung up the phone and he just sat there, then he looked at Roland and he said, “I want to start my sessions with Peter tomorrow; I have to get on and take charge of my life.”

Roland smiled because Seto had finally come to the end of his journey and he was becoming the man he was meant to be.

Seto called Peter and he said, “I want to come in tomorrow and begin my sessions with you, I’ve finally discovered what I want out of life and nothing is going to stop me from obtaining it.”

Peter was proud of Seto and he told him, “I’m glad that you’ve finally found out what you want and I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Roland and Seto walked to the living room, and Ethan said, “Kelly, Kyle and Shawn are outside; they want to show you what they made.”

So the three of them walked outside, and they found Kelly and Kyle standing beside their dada and Kelly said, “Me and Kyle have made this for both of you.”

Kyle and Kelly picked up a kite and it was made from brilliant colors and had a real long tail on it. “Come on Seto hold it up so that the wind will make it fly.”

Seto walked over to them, he took the kite, he held it up, a gust of wind took it out of his hands, and the kite began to climb higher and higher into the sky.

As the adults watched, the kite really climbed high and Kyle and Kelly were holding onto the roll of string as the kite rose.

Shawn and Ethan were so very proud of their children and what they made, and then Seto said, “WOW! That’s the best kite I’ve ever seen, just look how high it is.”

Roland then went over to Seto, he put his arm around his shoulder, and he said, “Reminds me of when you and Mokuba were younger and Greta and I took you two to the Park and we threw that Frisbee around and almost caused Greta to wet her pants laughing.”

Seto looked at Roland and he said, “I remember and that was one of the best memories that I have growing up, and when all of this is over, I’m going to make more memories with my brother and they’ll include Joey too.”

Back in Domino:

As Joey was driving, Mokuba turned on the radio and they were singing to the songs, laughing, and just having the time of their lives.

Joey turned off the highway onto a dirt road and as he drove, Mokuba said, “Alright we’re going to the lake.”

Bakura asked, “What the hell are we going to do there?”

Ryou laughed and then he said, “We’re going to have a great time, that’s what we’re going to do.”

Joey stopped the car beside a huge tree and as he got out he said, “Alright, lets get this stuff unloaded and before we eat we can go swimming.”

Mokuba said, “But Joey, I didn’t bring my swim trunks.”

Joey walked over to him and as he took Mokie into his arms, he kissed him and then he said, “Well I did, so let’s change and go swimming.”

When they all were changed, Joey ran and as he jumped into the water he yelled, “Geronimo!” As he hit the water, Ryou, Bakura and Mokie all burst out laughing and they all ran and jumped into the water too.

They swam for about an hour and then they all got out and went over to the blankets that Joey and Bakura had spread out, they all laid down, Bakura said, “Wheeler, you were right, this is one hell of a great day, just being with your friends is real nice.”

Joey’s stomach began making noises, they all laughed, and Mokuba said, “I think that we’d better eat this great lunch that Greta made for us.”

They all had a great time and when the sun began to sit, Joey said, “We’d better get things cleaned up and start back, it’s going to be dark by the time we get home.”

They all helped clean up and as Joey drove back to town, Bakura said, “I had a great time today, and I have to tell you that I really thought you we were out of your mind when you suggested that we go on a picnic.”

Joey looked in the rear view mirror at Bakura and he said, “Thanks.”

By the time, Joey got back to the Manor it as almost midnight. They got everything out of the car and as they went inside they tried to be quiet, and then the light in the living room came on and Greta said, “Did you all have a good time?”

Mokuba told her, “We sure did, and the lunch was delicious.”

She helped them get everything out of the basket and then she said, “You two go to bed, I’ll wash these things up.”

Joey and Mokie both gave her a hug and then they walked upstairs and as they got into the room, they were both so tired that they fell asleep in the clothes that they wore.


Back in Tokyo:

After they had dinner, Seto said, “I want to thank all of you for letting me stay here. I’ve really enjoyed being here and for the first time in a long time, I’m actually having a great time.”

Ethan said, “We’ve enjoyed having you here and I know that Kelly and Kyle are going to miss you when you leave.”

Kelly and Kyle had tears in their eyes and Seto said, “Hey, don’t cry, I’ll be coming back to visit and when I come back I’m going to bring my brother and his life mate so that they can get to know all of you.”

When Seto and Roland got ready for bed, Roland said, “I’m so proud of you. You’ve grown since coming here and I know that when you and Joseph do talk that you’ll be able to see just what a great man he really is and that’ll make your brother so glad that you can accept them being together.”
