Chapter 3
He's Got A Big Heart, But Will He Remember Me?
I lay down on the bed face down as Mokuba called my name from the door of my room. I tried to hide my anger towards our new caretaker, but knew anger wouldn't solve anything for the most part. We were far from home.
"Seto? Are you ok?" Mokuba asked me. I didn't answer, I wanted him to think I was asleep so he wouldn't worry. When Mokuba was worried, I would be worried. That boy would stay up all night when he was worried about me.
I could hear Mokuba walking over to the side of my bed. "Seto, it's time for dinner" he started to shake me. I rolled over and opened my eyes as if I had just woken up. "Oh, hey Mokuba" I said through a fake yawn.
I sat myself up, Mokuba smiled. "Already feel at home, Seto? Or are you just being a lazy bum cause you got nothing better to do?" Mokuba said, pushing. I smiled back, "It's peaceful here, that's all" I said, wondering if Mokuba hated this place as much as I did.
"Well, come on, it's time for dinner." I nodded and got up beside Mokuba. "So Mokuba, how do you like Nonoke?" I asked, picking up dirt on Nonoke could be easy. "She's nice, at least she's not like Kozaburo."
"That man was meant to burn in hell"
"Seto!" I froze, Mokuba knew I hated him, "I completely agree" I laughed at Mokuba's remark. Yep, Mokuba was still my little brother, how could I ever think this woman could ever change that?
"Ah, there you 2 are. Come on, your dinner is getting cold" Nonoke said appearing from another room and dragging us both into the room. We all sat at the table. I looked down at my food. "Sushi" Nonoke nodded.
Mokuba turned to me, "Seto, what's Sushi made of?"
"Raw fish"
"You mean you killed a fish?!" Mokuba said with shock looking over at Nonoke. "Actually this is take-out." Mokuba crossed his arms, "I'm still not gonna eat a dead fishy!" I rolled my eyes, "But it's already dead."
"So! It still has... or had, feelings!" Nonoke began to laugh. "Ok, ok, I'll go get you some rice." Nonoke said getting up from the table. I turned to Mokuba, "Well, if your not gonna eat it, I will" my reached hovered over Mokuba's bowl.
Mokuba snatched up the bowl before I did. "No!" my hand sank to the table. "Come on Mokuba!"
"No way! This fishy deserves a proper burial." My mouth dropped. "Fine, have it your way. But I'm telling you this is good sushi" I said eating another piece of my sushi. "I'm gonna go give him the burial now" Mokuba jumped out of his seat and out of the door.
Nonoke walked in with a bowl of rice, "Ok, here Moku... Seto, where's your brother?"
"Giving the dumb fish a 'proper' burial" I said shoving another piece of sushi in my mouth. "Could you go get him for me?" I shrugged, "Sure, why not?" I got up and walked out the door.
I looked around, it was kind of peaceful. I saw a spot of black sitting at the edge of the nerby stream. I ran over to Mokuba and sat down. "Where's the sushi?"
"In a better place I hope" Mokuba said looking up to me. I smiled, Mokuba had such a big heart, it was almost something I could be proud of. "Come on Moki..." Wait! Was I just about to say? Mokuba looked up.
"What were you about to call me?" I shook my head, "Nothing. Come on Mokuba." Mokuba smiled, as he got up quickly and ran beside me. "You know big brother, I think I'm beginning to like this place."
I turned on my belly, I couldn't seem to even get a wince of sleep. But who could when so many questions and thoughts were in my head. Ok, I'll go over the situation one more time.
I'm charged for 1st degree murder, and the only person who was on my side ends up becoming our foster mother. Then she takes us away from our home and our only friends and dumps us on this hill, then she tries to be the mother Mokuba never had and I feel replaced. Now she's achieving the one thing Mokuba never could?
The house began to creek. I had to see Mokuba, it's the only thing that calms me down. I got up and slowly walked out of the room. I walked through the hall and walked down the stairs. I opened it slightly and peeked in.
My eyes widened, Mokuba wasn't there. I began to run up the stairs, suddenly something hit me right off my feet and skidded down the stairs on my back. I yelped in pain, blackness around me as I shut my eyes.
"Seto! Are you ok?!" I heard Mokuba say. His voice coming from on top of me. I opened my eyes, Mokuba shaking and holding onto my shirt for dear life. The lights flicked on "Mokuba! Seto! Are you both ok?" Nonoke said from on top of the stairs.
I put my arm around Mokuba to calm him down and used the other to sit up. "Oh my God! What happened?" Nonoke said running over to us. She picked Mokuba up from out of my arms and placed him in hers.
"I-I wanted to see Seto, a-and then he wasn't there so I was running d-down stairs, a-and then I accidently r-ran into him and we both fell, b- but it mostly hurt Seto!" Mokuba said clinging onto Nonoke.
At that, I was angry, I pushed myself up, soon the pain didn't matter. I walked past Nonoke to the stairs. "Wait! Seto, are you ok?" Nonoke asked. "I fine!" I barked back. I walked back into my room.
"Seto?" the voice seemed so far away. "Seto? Are you awake?" The voice sounded so nice and sincere. I wonder who that was. "Seto!" My eyes opened. Mokuba sat on the side of my bed.
"Oh, hey kiddo. What's wrong?"
"Nothing, today is our first day of school." I moaned and put my pillow over my head. "Come on Seto! It won't be that bad. I mean, we don't have to where a uniform anymore." I threw the pillow off my head.
"Great!" I bounced right off my bed onto my feet. "Ok, we better get ready so we won't be late, k Moki..." It happened again, "Right Mokuba?" I quickly said. Mokuba just nodded slowly, He walked over to the door and turned around. "I was just wondering if you were ok too"
I turned to Mokuba, "Yes, I'm fine Mokuba, don't worry about it." Mokuba looked up and smiled, "Great! Let's get ready!" Mokuba said running out of the room. Mokuba was still the same, but I was still worried about weather Mokuba was still my little brother. So what is going to happen? Mokuba's love seems tro be all that matters in Seto's mind. But can they survive the schools of Tokyo? Only God will know in the next chapter. REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
