Mokuba woke up the next morning. He tried to convince himself that it was all just a bad dream, that Seto was still alive. But when he found himself in Tea's room, he knew that it wasn't. Seto was gone forever. He heard Tea walk in.
"Morning," she greeted.
"Morning," Mokuba half-heartedly agreed as he sat up on the bed.
"How are you feeling this morning?" Tea asked.
"Good, I guess," Mokuba replied, looking down at his feet.
Tea thought for a moment.
"Hey, how about you and I go out and just hang out together today?" Tea suggested.
Mokuba looked up at her, and thought about it.
Then he replied, "Sure, I guess."
So, they got ready and left the house. They spent the day all over town. At the arcade, the movies, the park, diners, shops. It was just starting to get dark when they started to head for home.
"I had fun today Tea, thanks," Mokuba looked up at Tea.
"I'm glad," Tea smiled.
"So, what's going to happen to me now?" Mokuba asked, looking back at the ground.
Tea froze and looked down at Mokuba sadly. She knew this had been coming. But what will she tell him? Then Tea had an idea.
"I'll take you in," she told Mokuba.
He looked up her.
"Is that legal?" Mokuba questioned.
"I don't know," Tea admitted. "But I'm going to do it anyway."
Mokuba didn't know what to say. But Tea knew it wouldn't be that easy. That night, Tea talked with her parents about it. She explained what had happened and what she wanted to do.
"No," said Mr. Gardener. "We can't. We've already got three mouths to feed, and a fourth would be very hard to pull off. I'm sorry, but we can't."
"But dad, he's got no other place to go," Tea argued. "His only family, his brother, was killed saving him. He's got nothing else."
"He can go to the orphanage," Mrs. Gardener stated.
"But he's already been there, as a little kid," Tea protested. "I don't want to send him back!"
"Tea, we know that you care about this kid, but there's nothing we can do," Mr. Gardener stood strong. "We don't have enough space for four people, and we'd also have to feed him. I'm sorry."
"What if I used my money that I receive from my job to feed him?" Tea asked.
Her parents looked at each other.
"What about a place to sleep?" Mrs. Gardener asked.
"I can use the spare mattress that we have in the closet," Tea spoke quickly, it sounded like they were giving in. "I'll put it on the floor in my room and put sheets on it and give him a pillow. He'll be fine."
Her parents looked at each other again.
"We really shouldn't do this, but if you're really willing to do that, then fine, he can stay here," Mr. Gardener sighed. "I'll go get the mattress."
Mokuba laid on the mattress, looking up at the ceiling.
"Tea," he asked. "Where do you think Seto is now?"
She thought for a moment and then said, "I don't know."
"Do you think he misses me?" Mokuba asked.
"Yes, I think he does," Tea replied.
"Wish I could bring him back," Mokuba said sadly, rolling onto his side to look at Tea.
"Yeah," Tea replied awkwardly.
She felt bad now, about how she had treated Kaiba. She had been so mean to him at Duelist Kingdom. Now, she understood that Kaiba did have a heart.
Mokuba slowly drifted off to sleep. While he was asleep he had the most interesting dream.
He was in a dark place. It was filled with shadows. He could sense two presences. He saw one was a big man, like a giant, and the other was much smaller, and skinner. He also had chains on him. As they got closer, they're features sharpened and Mokuba gasped.
