Time to Cook! Part 4

"Oh no, we're out of curry!" Lizzy gasped as she stood near the pot of curry.

"Thank goodness," Yusei said with a sigh of relief. "Otherwise, there would be more people crowded around the curry. But at least they're all passed out now." The two glanced over at the living room and saw their friends asleep, either on the couch, chairs, or on the floor. The food was too good, so it made almost everyone fall asleep.

"I'm surprised that you haven't fallen asleep yet," Lizzy noted as she looked at Yusei.

"I've been asleep for most of the day, so I'll be fine. What about you?"

"Eh, I'll be okay!" Suddenly, a cell phone rang in the room. "Was that my phone going off again?" Lizzy asked, looking around the room. She decided to search the kitchen and living room area for the ringing phone. "Oh, it is my phone!" The girl answered it with a happy hello.

"Who is it?" Yusei questioned softly.

"It's one of my older brothers," Lizzy whispered back. She then turned her attention to her phone. "Yeah, I'm doing pretty good! My friends and I made curry tonight...yeah, it was tons of fun and it was yummy curry too! Everyone's passed out from the food...well, except one other person...it's Yusei. I don't expect Jaden to be awake after all of the food that he ate for dinner...okay!" The girl looked at Yusei and said, "My brother says hello to you."

"Tell him I said hi then," Yusei replied as he walked over to the fridge.

"Okay!" She turned her attention back to her phone again. "He says hi...no, Keiza is asleep but I will tell her that James says hi when she wakes up...okeydokey, you gotta go? Well, I'm glad you called me. Have fun with Shizu! Bye!" Lizzy hung up her phone and sighed happily. "I like his calls."

"Does he call you every so often, Lizzy?" Yusei asked, grabbing some milk from the fridge.

"Yup! He likes to surprise me every once in a while with his calls. James doesn't do it that often though, but I don't mind. I always hear of how he is doing."

"James?"

"Yeah! He's my other older brother. I have two brothers: Jarod and James. They're really cool!"

"That's good..." Lizzy looked at Yusei again, who was smiling softly to himself. She wanted to ask why he was smiling, but she figured it out.

"You have a brother?" the girl asked curiously.

"Technically yes," Yusei admitted after he drank half of the milk bottle. "I have two foster brothers."

"Oh, cool! Where are they?"

"...They're probably back at my home city. I haven't seen them in a while."

"I see. I haven't seen my brothers in a long time either. It feels like it's been a long time because I left home two months after my high school graduation."

"At least you get to see some of them now."

"Yeah." Lizzy smiled as she saw her sleeping girl friends, the ones that she has the chance to see them now. "I'm glad that I get to see them again." Yusei took another sip of his drink and frowned a little, sighing mentally to himself.
