Chapter 1
"Seto Kaiba?" A new therapist motioned for him to sit down. She had just opened her own practice and was thrill that she had gotten one of the richest men in the city as her client. Though it quite disturbing to her that he had been known to never open up his feelings to anyone and now he is here in her office.
Seto knew what she was thinking. "My little brother convinced me"
"Mokuba Kaiba? Am I correct?" She said a little surprise with his comment.
Seto nodded as he took a seat.
"Where shall we start?" She prepared her pen and pad of paper.
"You're the therapist........... You should tell me" Seto snapped back with his raspy cold voice.
"OK........................... What brings you here?" She fully understood why other practices have not taken him in.
"There nothing you can do for me................. I'm only here to make my brother happy" Seto crossed his arm.
"That's what I'm here for............... I can help you" She was a determined young doctor.
"Let's make this easier for the both of us......................"
"Why don't you give me a chance?" Partially annoyed with her first client she interrupted him with a cold tone of her own. Their eyes battled as Seto's blue eyes were ice and her eyes on fire.
"Begin" The young female doctor leaned back and awaited his response.
Seto just stared at her.
"I have all day" She crossed her legs.
"It started when.........................................."
***
"You imbecile! How can you simulate something so redundant?" Seto's voice roared throughout the whole Kaiba Corps building.
"Mr. Kaiba........ I apologize from the depths of my heart" A worker scared to death as every single bone from his head to his pinky toe was shaking.
"An apology is not acceptable! I did not want to hire you from the beginning! You are an incomputable, irrelevant, idiotic, insignificant, excuse for a man! You're fired!" Seto eyes of blue shot at him.
The man put his head down as a tear fell from his face.
"I do not want to see your face back in this building again! You're last paycheck will be given to your sister.........." His voice lowered.
"Yes Mr. Kaiba" He slowly turned around and quickly walked out of the young president's office.
"I'm working with imbeciles!" Seto sat in his plush leather chair and picked up the phone.
"Hello?" A sweet and gentle voice answered which contracted with Seto's raspy cold tone.
"Your brother is coming home" Seto didn't wait for an introduction.
"Seto?" The young girl understood perfectly what he meant.
"I cannot work with a........"
"I understand" The girl interrupted not wanting to hear anymore.
"I hope this does nothing to affect..........." Once again Seto was interrupted.
"Bussiness remain strictly business I assure you Seto Kaiba"
"Then I assume I will see you tonight" Seto had changed little by little and has opened his heart to his lover.
"Yes"
"Kairi?" Seto waited a while before speaking again. "You know..........." Seto wanted to say that he wanted to help, but her brother was not cut out for his company.
"I know" Kairi knew it was hard for Seto to come out with his feelings. "Thank you for giving him a chance....... I deeply appreciate it....... Bye"
Seto heard a click on the other end and he unusually gently laid it back on the stance. Seto let out a sigh and leaned back into his chair.
~*~
The young man, who was just cut from Kaiba Corps, opened his house door and took in the fresh air. He had failed, not only to himself, but also for his younger sister who was counting on him. Without a job and any other skills, their family was dug into debt.
"Brother" His younger sister peeked out of the kitchen.
"I.......I........" he tried to say.
"I know........ Mr. Kaiba called me" Kairi lessen her expression.
"I'm sorry" He felt like a failure, that couldn't even provide for his dying mother and only younger sister.
"It's ok brother................" Kairi hugged him.
"I have no other skill" He lowered his head to see the blurry carpet beneath them.
"It's okay..................... I will go back to the........................" Kairi was afraid to say anymore.
"You can't!" He yelled.
"Kei? Is that you?" An old fragile voice came from the bedroom.
"Mother" He quickly went to her side.
"Why are you home so early?" She smiled at her only son.
"I....................I.....................I no longer work at Kaiba Corps" His heart twisted with great pain as the words left his mouth.
"Kei................ It is alright............... It is my time to leave you two anyway" She smiled knowing that her two loving children worked long and hard in hopes of her recovery.
"No, Mother please, do not say that..................... I know a way where I can get a job right away" Kairi stepped in. She cannot let the woman who gave her life die in front of her eyes without giving a fight to the finish.
"Kairi................ My beautiful daughter........................." She started.
"No, please...................... mother" Kei interrupted.
Her fragile old eyes gave her the vision of her two children in pain and turmoil over her coffin. To see her children in pain hurt in deeply inside of her heart. "Ok"
"Thank you............................ you should get some rest now" Kairi kissed her mother on the forehead and followed Kei out of her room. She gently and quietly closed the door and walked into the kitchen.
"Kairi..................... are you mad?" Her brother questioned in high volume.
"We have to do everything we can to save her.......................... You heard the doctors" Kairi did her best to keep from saying in angry.
"I heard them as clearly as you did little sister.......................but you cannot go back there................. That's why I went to Kaiba Corps in the first place" Kei worried about his little sister well-being as much as his mother's.
"It's the only way....................." Kairi relaxed her arms and let the tears rolled down her cheeks. "I don't want to see mother died............ not before I see her healthy again and playing with our children"
"You were almost killed last time" Kei turned away; he knew his sister's tears would take him over.
"That was the past........................ I'm stronger and faster now.................. it won't happen again" Kairi overestimated her abilities.
"Ok......................................... But only.................................... if you are extra cautious" Kei finally gave in.
"Right" Kairi nodded.
~*~
Kairi glanced at her watch. She took in a deep breath and she laid her finger on the while shiny button below the speaker.
"Kaiba residence" A familiar raspy voice said.
"Hi" Kairi sounded cherry as usual.
The front gates opened without any further conversation. Kairi didn't mind the lack of voice; she walked to the front entrance where she met Mokuba.
"Hi Kairi!" Mokuba happily greeted.
"Mokuba" Kairi smiled as she kneeled down and gave him a hug.
Seto came out still dressed in his Kaiba Corp's jacket. "Kairi"
Kairi tilted her head and smiled. "Hi"
'Always wearing that smile' Seto though to himself.
'Always wearing that jacket' Kairi laughed in her mind.
Seto turned around knowing that she and Mokuba will follow. Mokuba and Kairi knowing that Seto wanted them to follow, they did obey. Mokuba say his goodbye to Kairi and explained he had his game on pause, he ran upstairs to his room leaving Kairi and his big brother alone.
"He's so adorable" Kairi giggled.
"Hungry?" Seto with his faceless emotion asked.
"For dessert" Kairi's smile never leaving her face.
"As always" Seto lead the way with his monotone voice.
Kairi sat down at her usual chair and waited for Seto's servant to bring out her favorite cake.
"Oreo Cheesecake Lady Kairi" A old feeble man placed the dish in front of her. Seto came out with two glasses and a carton of milk. Seto placed himself across Kairi's beautiful radiance.
"Seto" Kairi started as she put a piece of cake in her mouth.
Seto looked deep into her shining innocent eyes.
Kairi unable to bring herself to tell him she laughed it off and answered with "Never mind"
Seto wasn't the type to question, so he also left it alone.
A long range of silence of the usual came into play. Kairi watched her cake grow into nothing as it satisfied her sweet tooth. Seto watched Kairi.
"Kairi" Seto still using his cold voice he used on employees.
"Yeah?" Kairi put the last piece of delicious cake that tingle her taste bud.
"I have a meeting tomorrow................ Can you watch over Mokuba?" Seto asked.
Kairi would usually accept, but she had plan for tomorrow, Kairi quietly looked down unknowing how to answer. Finally mumbling a few words that sounded like "Sorry, I'm busy"
"Busy?" Seto surprised. Kairi was always free, as long as he dropped Mokuba at her house; she was always able to watch over him.
"I'm going to work tomorrow" Kairi knew they would accept her back and start her right away.
"Work?" Seto shocked to hear from her, a girl who had the richest man in Domino City behind her that is willing to support her all the way.
"Yeah" Kairi quietly answered.
"Kairi................. If you need money........................" Seto was interrupted.
"My family will never be able to pay you back" Kairi never raising her voice to him.
"There is no need" Seto knew about her mother and knew that his brother had lost his job today, considering he was the one who caused it.
"I can't..................... I can ask my brother.............. He would be able to look after Mokuba" Kairi suggested.
"Kairi......................." Seto didn't know what to say.
"It's okay Seto....................... I know exactly where I'm going and what I'm going to do" Kairi gave her brightest smile.
"Do you have any skills?" Seto ice cold eyes knew already that his life would change from this moment.
"What is that suppose to mean?" Kairi acted insulted, but busted out laughing.
"You obviously cannot act" Seto smirked.
"I have one" Kairi imitated Seto.
"One skill may not get you very far" Seto always serious.
"I only need to get a certain distance" Kairi replied.
"Then that is you're choice" Seto stood up and walked away.
Kairi also stood up and trailed Seto. "You're not mad at me are you?"
"Should I have a reason to be?" Seto didn't look back as he talked; he stopped in front of the staircase.
"Seto........................" Kairi didn't know how to react to this, but her mother was important. She will take the job. "Then I guess i should be going home"
"As you wish" Seto turned around and faced her. 'I could never be angry with her' Seto made up in his mind.
"Bye" Kairi turned around to the door and then suddenly turned back and looked at Seto. "Bye Mokuba" She said slightly louder.
Mokuba's head popped out. "You just came though...................... Well.................. I guess I'll see you tomorrow?"
"No, Kairi is busy.................... You will have to attend the meeting with me" Seto responded to her.
"Aw................" Mokuba whined.
Kairi brought the smile back into her face as she headed for the door. As she reached for the doorknob, Seto spoke once again. "Kairi, I'm not" Seto referring to the answer to her question she had asked a minute ago.
This brought a bigger grin to her face.
