Author's Ramble: Seto Kaiba is the man, Jade Matsuri has a plan.
Just a Business Partner
Jade Matsuri
I wondered why Jade had told me her troubles. I also wondered if Mokuba was really the only one stopping her from killing me. I did not see her for the next three weeks. No more attempted murders were on the news, not a spotting of a blue-haired woman. Not a phone call.
I was quite disappointed.
"Seto," Mokuba said, "how come Jade hasn't been coming here anymore?" I looked up from my work. My brother's eyes became watery. He had gown attached to Jade as I had grown attached to her. Mokuba tugged at my sleeve as I was lost in thought. Once again, I was pulled into harsh reality.
"I don't know Mokuba. She said she would come back but she must be really busy. Call her and see."
"But I did Seto and she won't answer! Why won't she answer? Seto, she was like a big sister to me!" I blinked in surprise. Jade, an older sister? I almost laughed; if only Mokuba knew.
"She has children of her own Mokuba, she has to take care of them."
"How come she never told me she had children?"
"I don't know Mokuba." He snorted in frustration. He had to understand that I would not always have the answers for him, especially for someone as mysterious as Jade.
