Atem's eyes briefly met hers and he gave a small, reserved smile before going to the refrigerator to take out some bread and the vegan butter spread he had bought. "I have slept well enough under the circumstances, yes," was the response, hoping it wouldn't appear too obvious that he was still peeved about how he had to tell her he wanted to nap some more the previous day for her to leave.

"Well this is awkward..." Angela thought, while starting to scrub the dishes. "I guess he's still mad. But I'll follow Yugi's advice and let him speak of it first." She then cleared her throat. "Godpa and I are going to get out the Chess set, later. You're welcome to join us...if you want."

"That's very kind, but I'd like the alone time," responded Atem, reaching down a plate. He put a piece of bread on it and started spreading a small piece of the vegan butter before putting it in the fridge. He then got a cup, poured some water and taking it and the plate of bread to the table to sit down with. He started eating, hoping he'd get to do it in peace.

"Oh, ok." Angela said, finishing the dishes. "I'll make sure you're not disturbed. But...if you do ever want to play Chess sometime, I'm game." A part of her was really wishing Atem and herself would talk about the issue. However, she would follow Yugi's advice. "I'm going to go change, if you need anything, Godpa and I will be in the Living Room."

Atem gave a slight nod before continuing with his breakfast. As he ate, the thought to himself how much of a relief it was that Dr. John had not questioned his annoyance or distant behavior. 'Then again, I am not certain how I'd explain the problem, that certain things she has done I do not care for, or about the old scars that remained from incidents at the beginning of our courtship.' It seemed questionable that he was still bothered by those as he was forgiving, but they had not been addressed properly even after he said he was bothered by them, but would just be worded as making him feel bad or making him sad when there was more to it than that. 'And they tend to linger once that happens.' He sipped his water, trying to distract himself.

Angela changed into her comfortable clothes, and slippers. All the while, praying that either Yugi would call or that Yami would break the ice. "If things don't be settled soon...I feel like I'll lose my mind from worry." She took a breath and headed to the Living Room; hoping that playing Chess with her Godfather would help calm her nerves.

Atem ate the remainder of his breakfast and drank his glass of water. Deciding he was satisfied for the time being, he took his dishes to the sink, washed them out and exited the kitchen, heading for his bedroom. He got the book he had started and opened it to where he left off, hoping it would take his mind away.

Angela got out the Chess board and set it up on the coffee table.
It was a very old set; the kind that had the Queen and King figures siting on their thrones and the Knights on their horses, etc. The clothes the pieces wore were blue and white in color. The felt underneath the figures was a bit worn, but the rest were in good condition. Instead of the white and black squares that was usually with the game; this one had green and beige squares.
The young woman tried to not worry about things, and hoped the game might clear her head. "I hope this'll help..." She thought as her Godfather came in.
"So lass, which color would ye like?"
"I think I'll be white this time." She answered. "Shall we flip to see who goes first?"
"Aye." Dr. John reached into his pocket and pulled out a quarter. "Yer call, lassie."
Angela thought a minute. "Hmm...tails."
The coin was flipped and the elder caught it, before revealing the result. It was heads, so he went first. Moving a pawn as his first move, then Angela went while carefully planning her strategy. After a moment she moved her pawn on the far right forward, then waited for her Godfather to make his move. "I'll try to get him cornered before he does it to me...he always seems to do it." Angela lost her next two pawns, before deciding to move her Rook and take the first of her Godfather's pawns.
