Tea:
I walk towards the door... I look into it again... Gathering up my courage, I walked inside. What should I say, what should I say? Hi Seto, I'm back... Oh yeah, and I'm carrying your child. It sounds ridiculous! What should I say?!
Why do I even bother? He might not be able to hear me in the first place. But if he was able too... what do I say? I sigh. I decide to leave that bit for later... Right now, I take a seat beside him. It makes me so sad to see him like this! It's just... not fair. Not fair that I feel this way about you. Just not fair...
I watch you. You seem to be in a pleasant dream, and a soft smile is visible on your face. I reach out to take your hand, very carefully, because I am terrified of hurting you or accidentally disconnecting one of tube many tubes and machines around you. This thought alone makes my tears fall again.
"Seto." I say, softly, not expecting a response. I watch you again, for what seems like forever. "Can you... hear me?" I say. I am afraid of hurting him, afraid. Me. I just look away and continue. "I hope you can." He doesn't seem to have responded at all. He's still in that dream-like state.
I suppose you really can't hear me. Still, I have to try. For Mokuba, for the baby, and for myself. Summoning up my courage, I tried to speak a little louder. It really was that—a little louder. "I've come back for a short while, to see you." It soon gets softer, though, and ultimately becomes softer than before. "Do you know how sad your brother is? How sad I am?"

Kaiba:
I heard her voice, but it was murky and sounded so far away... then one sentence finally catches my attention. "Do you know how sad your brother is? How sad I am?" She... was sad? For me? I didn't know what to think. In decided to listen on for the time being.
This time, I would give her my full attention. In my heart, I promised her that. She deserved it, all of it, and more.

Tea:
"I hope you're listening. Why can't you wake up? I know you can. You just don't want to, do you? You're so selfish. How many people do you want to hurt? How many people? You'll hurt those who care about you- Mokuba, me and even Yugi and the rest. They care too... How? Tell me, how can you forsake us?! " I pause, and tears spring to my eyes again.
A tear falls. It hits your hand. "I just—I just want you to try and wake up! Is that so hard???" I'm crying now. "I'm crying. I know it's stupid, and you probably don't care, but I'm crying for you. It's because I love you!"
Can't you see how much I need you? I voice that out, but in a soft, wondering tone. I close my eyes for a moment. I just want to rest. To close my eyes, and never wake. Just like you did before. I'm so tired, did you know that? So tired...

Kaiba:
I listened. Why was she so sad? "You're so selfish. How many people do you want to hurt? How many people? You'll hurt those who care about you- Mokuba, me and even Yugi and the rest. They care too... How? Tell me, how can you forsake us?! " I felt very guilty.
Then there was silence. It was too much of a silence for me. I wanted to listen to her beautiful voice. "Can't you see how much I need you?" her tone was soft, and tired. I decided to try my best to wake up. For your sake.I thought.

Tea:
I felt a hand softly touch mine. Startled, I looked up. He smiled gently at me.

It isn't the end yet... There's still the fact that she has to tell him about her child and all... And a lot of other stuff too... So, there's still a last chapter...
So, please R & R!
