The next couple of weeks were the same. My father was in the same conditions. His health was bad and we were only allowed to visit him for 5 minutes. Today we were at court. My father's case was being reviewed and the judge was to decide my father's sentence. My mother, Seto and I were waiting for the results. I looked at Seto's lawyer, judge, and the jury duty nervously.

"Mom… I'm going crazy!" I mutter to her.
"Sweetie please relax" She whispers back.

"Jade… You are over reacting. I assure you everything will be okay" Seto says.
"But Seto what if he doesn't consider?" I ask nervously.
"The judge can't do that… Besides, your father is practically on his deathbed. It's inhumane to have him in those conditions" Seto explains to me.
"Mr. Kaiba is right sweetie… And Mr. Kaiba, I want to thank you for helping out Jeremy"
"No need to thank me Ms. Kimura" I could not hide my relationship with Kaiba anymore… After all, she was my mother and she knew me well.

"We the court has decided to free Mr. Jeremy Hayashi from his sentence. He's documentation states he has had a good conduct and that he is of no harm," the judge says. I got up and hugged my mother.

"You see sweetie… Everything was going to turn out okay" My mother tells me.
"Mom I'm so happy" I looked back at Seto and hugged him.

"Seto, you don't know how much this means to me" I tell him.
"Just as long as your happy my Jade" He responds.

"Well Mr. Kaiba I hope you're satisfied with the results," his lawyer said.
"That's why you're my personal lawyer Mr. Solis" Kaiba replies.

"It's an honor Mr. Kaiba." His lawyer says.
"Thank you" I told the lawyer.

"No need to thank me Ms. Kimura. Good day to you all" the lawyer leaves.

"Seto… What about the reports that might surface?" I asked.

"Solis took care of that. If any reports should surface, it will only speak of nothing but the truth. I am only helping a man in need. Nothing more, besides your father is no real criminal" Kaiba informs me.
"You're always a step ahead Mr. Kaiba" My mother comments.
"Ms. Kimura I was raised that way as a child and frankly that helped me become the successful person I am today" he was right… In a way, I felt bad that Seto did not have a good childhood. The only good thing that came out of it was the great executive he is today.

"I see Mr. Kaiba" we walked outside to the parking lot. We get in the car and drive away.

"Umeki… When will you stop being a brat?" William yells at her.
"What do you mean a brat? So you're just gonna stand by and watch as those two laugh at us!" she yelled.

"First all Umeki, Kaiba and Jade love each other and have had a long past. They've struggled, and have managed to love each other no matter what." William exclaims.
"bullsh*t William" Umeki snaps.
"If you really love Mr. Kaiba, then let him go once and for all… Or are you so childish that he just HAS to be yours?" William asked. Umeki's childish behavior was frustrating him.

"William… I am nothing like you. I am not going to be WEAK and let him go! After everything I went through to get him!" William takes a few steps closer to her. She gets lost when she looks at him. Umeki had never experienced the feeling… Not even with Seto Kaiba.

"Being weak and being realistic is two totally different things Umeki… You may be a smart successful woman but when it comes to love… You sure are empty headed" William says in a more calm tone.

"I know how to love… I know much more than she does!" Umeki pouts.
"She who?" he knew she meant Jade.
"Jade Kimura that's who… I don't know what the hell you saw in her William" Umeki says in anger.
"I saw a lot in her. She may not be a super model but she has has a wonderful personality… Can't say the same for you little model" for some reason when he said this she fumed in anger. She could not believe that in William's eyes Jade was better than she was. At this moment, she even forgot about Seto Kaiba.

"Oh please you just can't handle a real woman like me," she said walking around as if she were modeling a fashion show. William could not take it anymore. He pulls Umeki close to him. She looks at him furiously but with much love. He looks at her just the same.

"Don't test me Ms. Mori"

"You wouldn't have the guts to do anything anyways little vet" that remark made him furious. She tries to push him away but that only made things worse. William forces a kiss. She did not want to admit this… but she wanted this kiss.

"Here we are Ms. Kimura, Jade" Kaiba says as he stops the car.
"Thank you once again Mr. Kaiba" My mother tells him.
"No need Ms. Kimura" Kaiba responds without looking at my mother.

"Mom… I will see you in a few. I have to talk to Seto" I tell her.
"Sure thing honey" We get off the car and my mother walks inside the clinic.

"What is it Jade" Kaiba asks as soon as my mother was out of sight.
"I know I said this but I just want to thank you once again Seto" I looked at him with loving eyes. Seto had just shown me that I meant a lot to him… Probably more than I would ever know.
"Jade you know I did this for you" Kaiba mutters sweetly.

"Seto now I am sure, more convinced now than ever that you're my one true love" he smiled when I said this.

"Jade, I've been wanting to talk to you about…" he seemed to want to ask something but did not know how to bring it out.

"What Seto?" I ask.
"Have you ever thought about us getting married again" I did not want THAT to happen again…

"Seto… I don't think so" I said in a nervous tone.
"Why not" He asks in astonishment.
"Remember last time we got married… No thank you" I said nervously. I didn't want to tell him this but it was better that he knew the truth.

"But things are different know" He says.
"Seto, to me that whole marriage thing is like a curse now. Besides do we really need a paper for us to be united?" I giggle nervously.
"So what the hell do you suggest then?" he was frustrated yet kept his cool.

"For us to just live together… In time of course" I said.
"It seems we have our future to discuss… Huh?" Oh gosh, this looks like a beginning of another quarrel.
