Twist of Fate Door #2

Once again they were inside of Kaiba Crop. Mokuba again was sitting at Kaiba's desk. This time he was all-alone in the room.

"What's happening now?"

"Now we are back to Mokuba once again running Kaiba Corp. once again your board of directors has decided Mokuba should leave school to learn how to run Kaiba Corp. and like last time they have chosen a guardian."

Mokuba turned and looked out the window. "All right! The first snow day of the year! I can't wait to get out there!"

"I'm not exactly sure why but the kid always seemed to have an obsession with wanting to go out and play on the first snow day of the year. He'd often come running into my office or come wake me up all excited telling me it was the first snow day of the year. Almost as if I should call a press conference to announce it!" Kaiba said.

"Did you ever think to go out and play with him?" Aiko asked.

"I would have liked to but I always had work to do." Kaiba told her.

"I see." Aiko said.

Mokuba ran to the closet and got ready to go outside then out the door and disappeared out it only to be brought back a few minutes later by a guard with a woman following close behind. They noticed he was no longer wearing his coat and things as he was set down in the chair, crying.

"Now I wouldn't have spanked you if you had listened to me."

"But it's the first snow day of the year! Seto always let me go out and play in it!" Mokuba protested.

"Well you're brother's dead now due to you. Now you must concentrate on learning to run his company. You will sit here and concentrate. There is no more play time!"

"What the hell! What does she mean because of him?" Kaiba questioned Aiko.

"Well this wasn't going to be brought up till later but since it has…"

"Are you going to tell me?" Kaiba demanded.

"A couple of servants overheard your argument with him. Mokuba has even blamed himself." Aiko said.

"Why?" Kaiba said.

"Simple you both wondered what life would be like without the other. You both also secretly wish to have a life without the other, however I don't wish to grant that wish. So this is the closest way to show you both to be careful what you wish for. So shall we move on?"

"No, not until you tell me what's going to happen to Mokuba? Other than this woman's yelling he seems to be ok here."

"Looks can be deceiving."

"What's that suppose to mean she doesn't hurt him does she?"

"Physically no, no in this world he is as safe in that department as he could ever get."

"Then what's the problem?"

"Quite simple, love."

"What?"

"You love him don't you?"

"Of course I do what kind of stupid question is that?"

"A reasonable one. For you see when you died he was left alone in this world. This woman is his guardian, but that's the extent of her concern for him. She never shows him anything but anger. When he's frightened by a storm or a nightmare and looking for comfort he gets nothing. He was even locked in his room at night after telling this woman once that he was scared. He was told, what I believe you have a time or two especially when you've been sleep deprived for days on end, suck it up and go back to bed."

"Yeah but I always feel guilty about it later and either take him back to my bed or just sleep in his. I have told him that but then not long afterward I wake up enough to realize what I've said and have to make up with him or I'd never be able to live with myself or face him again."

"I see, well he will grow up and will expand the company seeing as it's his only passion and the only thing left of you. He will meet and date several women but nothing will come from them. He lives a full life alone and working."

"Is there any good news in these futures?"

"Perhaps shall we move on?"

"Why not."

Again they were in the hall of doors and Kaiba chose door number 4.
