Chapter 4: Katy's Life in Egypt
Half an hour later…everyone sat down, exhausted. "Let's watch something!" suggested Bakura as he held up a familiar-looking DVD. Katy recognized it and said, "The hell…? How the fuck did you get you hands on it?" only to hear Bakura snicker in reply. "What's it about anyway?" asked Mokuba as the tomb robber tossed it to Pharaoh, who replied, "You'll see," as he inserted it into Kaiba's DVD player. Kaiba held the remote in his hand and played it, and then asked [as they watched], "Pyramids? Is that Egypt?" and Katy nodded in reply. "That girl looks like Katy!" exclaimed Ryou as they watched a little girl skipping around on the screen. "Of course it is!" she said, saying that they're looking at her 5-year-old self. "Kawaii! You're so cute!" squealed Serenity.
Throughout the whole video, Kaiba couldn't help exchanging quick glances between the younger version of Katy on the screen and the one sitting beside him right now. "The best part's coming up!" announced Bakura, and Marik quickly got up and grabbed some tissues before sitting back down on his spot. Mokuba asked him, "What's with all those tissues?" and he replied as he sweatdropped, "Better if I don't tell you." Mokuba just shrugged and returned his gaze to the screen. "Looks like some sort of occasion," said Téa as she noticed some colourful balloons and banners on a stage. "I think it was 13th or 14th birthday…" said Katy, "Or a little later than that." Ryou then said that if it was her birthday at that time, then where is she? Kaiba found her faster than the others could – she was the only girl wearing a golden robe. "Who are those guys behind you?" he asked, and she replied, "Male dancers…they're the only ones who agreed to dance with me." The sound of drums beating rhythmically is heard in the background, followed by the sounds of hands clapping as the younger Katy stripped off her robe and showed her real costume underneath; everyone – except Kaiba and Katy – goes wild as she shakes her hips to the beat. Wow, she's really good! thought Téa. I had no idea this girl could dance, thought Mai. "Yeah, shake it –" shouted Duke, unable to finish his sentence as he nearly choked on something. "That's my line! I was gonna say that!" shouted Joey and Tristan at the same time. Marik fainted a little while ago and Pharaoh was poking him, but there was no response. "Just leave him be," said Bakura, "He'll wake up soon enough," and the two boys snickered together.
The party ended several hours later, and all the guests went home…except one. "Katy, I think walking home with those heels is a bad idea. I'll drive you home," suggested Kaiba, and she accepted the offer without any second thoughts. I can see where this is going…thought Mokuba as he watched them drive away, then went to bed, smiling.
Minutes later, outside Katy's apartment…"This is it," she said, smiling as she turned around to face him, "Thanks for the ride." Kaiba smiled back and said, "You're welcome. Goodnight, Katy." She returned the greeting and was about to enter her room when he said, "Katy, wait," and she turned around to face him once more. "I was wondering if you'd…uh…" he began, unable to continue as he felt his heart beating in his chest. "Yeah? What is it?" she asked, curios about his reaction. He took a deep breath and replied, "Is it okay if we could…you know…go out together some time?" She then said, "Are you asking me out for a date?" and he answered with a nervous nod. Without any hesitation, she accepted his offer. "Great!" said Kaiba, "I'll pick you up tomorrow at…six? I heard there's a good movie at the cinema that we could watch before heading to the nearest nightclub." Katy thought for a while…and agreed, giving him her cellphone number. "Just give me a call, and I'll be right down," she added, "See you tomorrow!" and kissed him on the cheek before going into her apartment and closing the door. Wow…I think she likes me! thought the CEO as he stood there, blushing and smiling to himself.
