You Don't Understand!

Retribution

Heba stood in his room getting ready for school that day. 'I hope that I can make it through this day with all that has been happening.' Heba thought. He let out a sigh as he grabbed the school's jacket to go with the uniform and put it on.

There was a knock on his door.

"Come in." Heba said.

Solomon walked in and said, "Heba, you do not have to go to school today if you do not wish to."

"I know, Grandpa, but if Yugi found out that I missed school to sit at the hospital with him, he'd kill me, and I rather like being here." Heba said. He was trying to be amusing, but the sadness that he was feeling was obvious.

"All right, Heba. If you feel that you can't deal with being there, then just call me, and I'll call the school to tell them to let you go home." Solomon said.

Heba nodded. "I will, grandpa. Just call me if there is any change. Good or bad." Heba told him.

"You're the first person that I will call." Solomon assured him.

Heba nodded and grabbed his school bag before heading downstairs with his grandfather.

Yami, Atemu, Kyla, Sayora, Leo, and Yuesei were already in the kitchen.

"Morning, Heba. I just got breakfast ready." Kyla said.

Heba nodded and sat down to eat.

"Heba, if anyone causes you any trouble today, just let us know." Atemu said.

"So that you can beat them up, of course." Heba said.

"Well, we all know that you won't fight them unless they attack you, so we'll do it for you." Yami said.

"I have a class with one of you all day, so someone's going to be there." Heba said.

"Yeah, but we have some damage control to do." Sayora said.

Heba blinked. "What do you mean?" Heba asked.

"Sayora! You weren't supposed to mention that!" Leo hissed.

"Oops." Sayora said, covering her mouth.

Solomon frowned. "What's going on? I don't want anymore secrets in my house." Solomon said.

"Well, after you left the living room yesterday when you told us about that accident, we told Tea that she was going to have to tell the school the truth, or she'd be dealing with Yami and me. Well, she said that she would fix things and left, but none of us think that she's going to do a thing." Atemu said.

"We're worried that she might try and make things worse." Yami said.

"So, we're going to tell the whole school that Tea lied." Kyla added.

"Payback?" Solomon asked.

"It can't be considered payback when all we are doing is telling the truth." Yami said defensively.

"Yami, you want revenge." Heba said softy.

"Okay. Maybe I do want her to pay for what she did, but in reality, all we're doing is telling the truth." Yami said.

"He does have a point, Grandpa. They are being truthful." Leo said.

"Yes, but you are doing it for the wrong reasons." Solomon said.

"Actually, we want her to admit that she lied, but we know she won't, so we're doing things ourselves. Besides, all we really want is for Yugi and Heba's reputations to be restored." Sayora said.

"It's going to take more than that to do something like that." Heba said.

"Maybe, but it's a start at least." Atemu said.
