Chapter one
A Trip of fate

July 19, the start of summer break.

Summer break, a fun time for all…

Yeah right!

"Have you found me a new assistant yet?" Seto Kaiba sat back in his office chair talking on the intercom to his secretary.

"No, Mr Kaiba. None of the applications met your criteria, sir." She said.

Seto sighed, "Thank you, Rachel. Now back to work." he said.

"Yes, sir." Rachel said.

Seto leaned back in his chair, "At this rate, I'll never get a new assistant."

"Maybe you shouldn't be so picky, Seto." a young voice came from the window.

"I'm not picky, Mokuba. I just have high standards." Seto said glancing at his younger brother.

"Ok. You're right." Mokuba said without turning from the window..

Seto raised an eyebrow, "Since when do you give up so easily?" He inquired.

Mokuba turned and walked over to Seto's desk, "No reason… it's just that you're right." he smiled.

"Alright, what do you want?" Seto asked.

"What makes you think I want something?" Mokuba's eyes flashed with innocence.

The CEO glanced at the youngster, "When you acted like that." he answered, "Now what is it?"

"Well… I was wondering, if I could…" Mokuba paused, "If I could hang out with Yugi and his friends tomorrow?" he finally said.

Seto head snapped up and he stared at his brother, "Yugi and his friends…" he said grimly.

"We're only going shopping, then to see a movie, and then get something to eat!" Mokuba said quickly.

Seto didn't say anything.

"Please?" Mokuba pouted.

Seto took a deep breath, "Fine," He said, "As long as you're home by curfew."

"I don't have a curfew."

"You do now, nine o'clock, no later." Seto said quickly.

"Aw, but Seto…" Mokuba started.

Seto looked up, "You wanna make it eight?"

"No, no. Nine is perfect." Mokuba smiled and ran around the desk to hug his brother.

Seto returned the hug, "I have a lot of work to do, so I won't be home tonight. I want you to go to bed early." he said.

Mokuba looked up at him, "This is the third day in a row, Seto. Are you at least getting some sleep?" he asked.

"I had about five hours sleep last night. The night before, less than three hours." Seto answered honestly.

"Seto! You're gonna make yourself sick," Mokuba scolded.

Seto smiled, "I know, I'll try to get more sleep tonight."

"You won't try, you will!" Mokuba said firmly.

Seto laughed at his brother's attempt to glare, "Yes, I will." he said.

"Good." Mokuba walked to the door, "I'll see you tomorrow when I get home." He turned to leave, "and Seto… make sure you get something to eat."

Seto looked up to say something, but Mokuba had already left the office.

Next day…

Mokuba had met with Yugi, Joey, Tristen and Joey's sister Serenity, in town. But strangely Tea was not with them.

"Where's Tea?" He asked.

"She had to work today." Yugi answered.

"Oh, that's too bad." Mokuba frowned.

"Don't worry, we're gonna visit where she works." Joey said.

Mokuba looked up at the blond, "Is that allowed?" He asked.

"Yeah, we go see her all the time at work." Joey laughed.

"Where does she work again?" Serenity asked her brother.

Before Joey could answer, Tristen jumped in, "At that new book store we told you about!" He said holding Serenity's hand.

"Tristen…" Joey mumbled.

"Uh, I thought she worked at a dress store?" Serenity said.

"She does." Yugi said.

"Huh?" Mokuba was now confused.

"She also works at that take out place." Joey added.

Mokuba stopped, "She has THREE jobs?" He thought.

"Come on Mokuba." Joey said.

"Huh, oh, coming." Mokuba followed the others.

A while later they all arrived at the book store. Tea was unpacking some new books.

"Hey, Tea." Yugi called to the brunette.

"Oh, Yugi." Tea smiled.

"Hi Tea." Mokuba said.

"Ah, so your brother let you come out today?" Tea asked.

"Yeah, but I gotta be home by nine." Mokuba sighed.

"That sounds reasonable." Tea said.

"Hey, you're not supposed to agree with him!" Mokuba pouted.

Tea laughed.

"Nine o'clock, ain't so bad, kid." Joey said.

Mokuba tried to use his brother's scowl on them.

"You can't look mean to save your life." Tristen laughed.

"Aww." Serenity and Tea cooed.

Yugi sighed with sympathy, "This is what I have to put up with too." he said.

Mokuba started laughing.

"Not you kids again!" An angry voice said from behind them.

"Mrs Jackson!" Tea exclaimed.

"Tea, your friends can't keep visiting. It distracts you." Mrs Jackson said.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Tea repeated.

The woman sighed, "Its fine, just don't let it happen again." She turned to the others, "If you're not buying anything, I must ask you all to leave! "she then walked back to the till.

"Sorry, Tea." Yugi said.

"Its ok." Tea said cheerfully, "I'll see you guys later." She hurried them out of the store.

"See ya' Tea." They said, but she had already gone back into the store.

"I guess, we'll see her later." Yugi said.

"Yeah, now let's get something to drink." Tristen said, pointing at the café.

An hour later…

"Yuug, what time is it?" Joey asked.

Yugi glanced at his watch, "Its half passed eleven." He answered.

"We can go see Tea now." Tristen said.

"She's off work now?" Mokuba asked.

Yugi paused "Well… Yes and no…"

"What?" Mokuba asked.

"You'll see, come on." Joey said.

Later they arrived at a dress store…

"Why are we here?" Mokuba asked.

"Tea's second job." Tristen said.

"She's working both jobs on the same day?" once again, Mokuba was shocked.

"Yeah. When we're not at school, she works all three jobs, everyday of the holidays." Yugi informed.

"She worked all spring break." Joey added.

"That must be hard…" Serenity said.

"Yeah, but Tea's tough, she can handle it!" Tristen said as they entered the store.

A young woman with long black hair looked at the group, "Oh, Tea, your friends are here…" she called to the backroom.

Tea immerged from the backroom with a large box. "What did you say, Charlie?" She said before loosing her grip on the box. "Aw, crap!"

"Tea, your friends are here… again." Charlie said.

Tea looked up, "Oh, hey guys…" She sounded tired.

"Tea, did you get the dress in that I ordered for Serenity?" Joey asked.

"Oh, yeah." Tea went to the front desk. "Here it is. Soft violet satin, one piece, with matching shoes." she said showing them the dress.

Serenity eyes widened. "Oh, wow!"

"Nice choice, Joey." Tristen complemented.

"Do you want to try it on?" Tea asked Serenity.

"Oh, yes please." Serenity beamed.

Charlie showed Serenity the way to the dressing room, while Tristen and Joey tried to put a dress on Yugi. "Ahh! Tea, Mokuba, help!" he yelled as he ran around the store.

"C'mon, Yuug this is so your colour!" Joey laughed.

Tea and Mokuba watched from a safe distance.

"That is so wrong…" Tea laughed.

"Tea?"

"Yeah, Mokuba?"

"Why do you have so many jobs?"

Tea sighed, "I have these jobs to pay for two things. One, to pay for my dance classes and…" She paused.

"And…"

"My father is making me take cram school during the holidays, to prepare me for higher education." She sighed again.

"He's making you pay for all your lessons?" Mokuba almost yelled. "That's just not right!"

"Yeah, but its fine, Mokuba. Really." Tea smiled.

Mokuba was about to protest, when his cell phone rang. He picked it up, "Hello? Hi, Seto… Yes, I'm having fun." He continued to talk for a few minuets then hung up.

"I'm ready, what do you think?" Serenity came out of the dressing room.

"Whoa, you look wonderful!" Tristen went to hug her but Joey pulled him back.

"Yah, she looks great, but you don't have to hug her." Joey said.

"It really suits you." Charlie said.

"Thank you." Serenity blushed.

"Yah… hey wait what time is it!" Joey grabbed Yugi's arm, to look at his watch. "Uh-oh, if we don't hurry, we're gonna miss the movie!" he said.

"Give me a second ok." Serenity ran back to the dressing room.

"We gotta go, sorry Tea." Yugi said, pulling his arm back.

"That's ok, I hope you guys enjoy the movie." Tea said waving to them, as they left.

Mokuba paused in the doorway, to look at Tea.

"Mokuba, go on." She said. He nodded and left.

Just under two hours later, the group walked out of the cinema.

"Well… that was an interesting film." Tristen said with sarcasm.

"What was is called again?" Serenity asked.

"Happy time with bunny and friends…" Joey said. His eye was twitching.

"I'm sorry, its because I was too young to see the other movie… so we had to sit through that.. That, freak show." Mokuba said.

"It wasn't all your fault, they thought I was under age. Because of my height." Yugi sighed.

"And because of that baby face of yours…" Joey laughed.

"Hey!" Yugi yelled.

"I'm hungry…" Tristen said randomly.

"Oh, me too." Serenity said

"Where should we go?" Mokuba asked.

"To that place where Tea works." Yugi answered.

"Oh." Mokuba was now hardly surprised, after what Tea told him about her father.

Just a few blocks away was Tea's third job. When the gang walked in, they were met by chaos… Tea was the only waitress serving costumers, the other two employs were working at the counters.

Tea spotted them, and stopped, "Oh, hey." She said holding a tray in each hand.

She was wearing a silly pink dress, with a yellow apron, and a matching hat and socks, along with… pink roller-skates?

"Hey, bimbo!" A rude voice said.

Tea turned around and was faced with her angry boss, "Quit slacking off, and get back to work!" he said.

"Y-yes sir!" Tea did as she was told.

Everyone sat down. Mokuba hated what he saw, Tea was running around all over, serving people, and clearing tables, also being yelled at by her boss constantly.

"This is twisted," He thought, "Not only does she have three jobs, she has to pay for cram school classes, she doesn't want to go to, and she has no time for her friends!"

"Hey, you got customers waiting, get moving you lazy brat!" Her boss yelled once more.

"What a terrible boss," Mokuba glared at the man, "She would never be treated like that if she worked for Seto…" then an idea popped in to his head.

Tea eventually was able to come over and take everyone's order.

"So, what can I get you." she said out of breath.

"Me, Tristen and Yuug will have the usual, Tea." Joey said.

"Serenity, Mokuba? What do you want?" Yugi asked.

"I'll have a chicken salad please." Serenity said

Mokuba had a big grin on his face.

"Mokuba?"

"Tea, do you have a resume?" Mokuba asked suddenly.

Tea jumped, "Yeah, of course."

"Do you have it with you?"

"Yes, why?"

"Get it, I know of a better job for you, one that will have less hours and you'll get paid more! And you can quit all three of your jobs!" Mokuba said with enthusiasm.

"Re-really?" Tea was stunned.

"Yes, now come on, we have to hurry." Mokuba said.

"Where is this job at?" Joey asked.

"Never mind that for now, go get your resume, Tea!" Mokuba said.

Tea jumped again, "Oh-ok." she went into the locker room, and came back with a folder. "Do you really think I can get the job with this resume?" she asked.

"We'll see." Mokuba answered.

"When can I get an interview?" Tea asked.

"Right now!" Mokuba grabbed her hand.

"What? Now! No I'm still working, and I'm not dressed properly and- and-" Tea stammered as Mokuba pulled her to the door.

"Hey, bimbo! Where do you thing you're going!" Tea's rude boss yelled.

"Ah, sir I-" Tea started.

Mokuba looked at the man, "She quits! So screw you!" He said loudly.

"Mokuba!" Tea had never seen him like this.

"Yah, you tell him Mokuba!" Joey said.

"Oh my." Serenity said.

Mokuba dragged Tea out the door.

"Ah? What just happened?" Tristen asked with a blank face.

"I think it's best not to think about it." Yugi's face was blank as well.

Mokuba dragged Tea half way across town.

"Mokuba, where are we going?"

"To see my brother."

"What! So that job you told me about…"

"Yah, you'll be working for Seto."

Tea's face paled. Working for Kaiba? She never even thought that would happen.

"W-wait!" Tea was nervous, now that she could see the Kaiba corp. building.

"Its ok, I'll make sure my brother sees you, right now!" Mokuba smiled.

That's what she was afraid of!

The two entered the building. Tea was frozen in fear, Mokuba was just pulling her along, it was easy with her roller-skates on.

After a very long, long elevator ride, they came to the top floor. Pulling the stunned Tea down the hall way, Mokuba stopped.

"Hi, Rachel. Where is my brother?" he asked.

"Oh, Mokuba? He's in a meeting down the hall. In boardroom 3" Rachel replied. "Why do you need to see him?" The blond woman eyed Tea with curiosity.

"Boardroom 3…" Mokuba mumbled as he pulled Tea down another hall.

"Yes-but, you can't see him now he's in a meeting!" Rachel got up and walked after them.

"Now where is he?" Mokuba scanned the rooms, "Ah, there!" Seto was in a boardroom, that had glass walls, so his brother spotted him instantly.

"No-Mokuba, please!" Rachel called to him.

Mokuba pushed open the glass doors, "Seto! I've found you a new personal assistant!" He practically yelled.

"Oh-my-god, I-I'm so s-sorry, Mr Kaiba!" Rachel stammered.

Seto was sitting at the far end, of a very long table. There were at least thirty other men and woman executives in the room as well.

"OH GOD!" A voice in Tea's head screamed at her to run, and run fast. But for whatever reason she couldn't move.

"What?" Seto said, staring at his little brother, in complete shock. "E-excuse me for a moment…" he got up and walked towards them. He quickly pulled the two out of the room and closed the door. "What is this about?" he said in a cold tone.

"Tea can be your new, personal assistant, Seto!" Mokuba yelled again.

"WHAT!" Both Seto and Rachel said.

"Well-she has three jobs-but I hoped she could work for you-and-and she has to pay for all her lessons, and-and she has no free time-Seto could you please give her that job-and-and-" Mokuba went on.

When he was done Seto blinked a few times, "Mokuba…"

"Please, big brother!" Mokuba whined. "She has her resume right here!"

Seto sighed, "Rachel, go back to your desk…" he said.

"Ah, y-yes, sir…" She walked back down the hall.

"Tea, show him." Mokuba tugged at her hand.

Tea stood there, wide eyed, shocked and clutching her resume tightly.

"Let me see then…" Seto pulled the folder from her grasp. Tea could only gawk.

"Don't worry…" Mokuba whispered.

Seto scanned the file and then gave Tea a cold look, "You…" he paused, "You start on Monday, at nine thirty am, there are no excuses for being late."

Tea stayed silent as he continued. He told her how much she would be paid by the hour. How many hours she would be working, Monday to Friday. And he then went through all the things she would have to do in the job, some sounded easy, and some she couldn't even understand.

"Did you get all of that?" His question snapped her out of her thoughts.

"Eh-yes!" She squeaked.

"Right, and I must ask that you not wear that outfit. You arrive at work looking presentable." He said flatly.

"Um, yes." Tea paused, "Do.. I have the job?"

Seto glared at her, "Well duh!"

"Alright!" Mokuba jumped up and hugged Tea then his brother.

"T-thank you…" Tea mumbled.

"Whatever… by the way I will make a copy of your resume, for your employee file. You will get it back on Monday." Seto stepped towards the door. "I'll see you at home, Mokuba."

"Ok, c'mon Tea." Mokuba began to pull Tea along.

"Oh-yah, right." She turned around, only to loose her balance and fall flat on her face.

"Are you ok?" Mokuba helped her up and then they both walked back towards the elevator.

Seto held the folder to his face, "What have I done?" he then rejoined his colleagues, who had witnessed the whole thing, through the glass doors.

Tea felt some humiliation, however, she was happy to have such a good job. She wondered how she would handle it.

"You'll be a great personal assistant!" Mokuba said, with a bright smile.

"I hope so…" Tea smiled back.
