Amnesia

Chapter 9.

It was the next morning, and Mokuba just got up. His homework had been suffering, because he had been spending so much time trying to do his brother's job......this would now be 3 days of having to do this. He was also extremely tired, and had barely been able to see Seto, because of everything. 'How does my brother do it all the time?' He wondered. But he couldn't back down now, his brother needed this time off. 'The doctor said one week........I can give my brother one week off.' He thought. But Mokuba had already found the work too tough even on the first day, and by the next day ended up bringing over help from the office to help Mokuba out, since a lot of it he didn't even understand. But even with the help, they were still barely able to keep up, and were pushing off meetings that Kaiba was suppose to go to, as well.

Mokuba ate his breakfast, then decided to slip back into his brother's office to try and do more work, before leaving for school. As he did, he was surprised to see Kaiba in there, working. "Seto? What are you doing in here?"

"I'm helping you........what does it look like I'm doing?" Kaiba said.

"You're not suppose to work for a week. The doctor said........" Mokuba began.

"The doctor's a moron." Kaiba stated, glancing over the laptop. He looked down at his little brother, remembering what Joey said to him. He then smiled, and even gave his brother a hug, saying, "Thanks for helping me, Mokuba. Your the best little brother a person could ask for." Mimicking something that Mokuba had said to him in the past time and again, except it would be 'big' brother.

Mokuba sniffed, looking up at him and smiled, with a tear running down his face. "Thanks Seto.....I love you!"

"I love you, too." He said, feeling rather uncertain to say that, at first. After all, he still didn't really remember him. But that uncertainty barely lasted a second for multiple reasons. As his brother, he had basically assumed he cared for him, but it was also more than that. He's had this feeling........it wasn't a memory, but a feeling, a very protective feeling. And after the last four days, he couldn't help but also feel such pride to know that this was his little brother, willing to take all this responsibility just for him. Kaiba paused, then frazzled his hair, saying, "Now, go get ready for school."

"But.......what about you, Seto? You got school today, too." Mokuba said.

"Don't worry about it. I already called in sick, asked for today's homework, did it and handed it to the driver to bring it back to school for me. Today I plan on figuring out exactly what I'm suppose to be doing for Kaiba Corp. I can't wait any longer." Kaiba answered.

"But Seto....." Mokuba whined.

"Mokuba." Kaiba cut him off. "What you did for me was good, and I'm thankful for it. But the doctor's have to understand something. The work I do on a daily basis is also a part of what I am. If I don't continue my daily routine, I may never remember."

Mokuba nodded, "Okay Seto." And went to get ready for school.

Kaiba went through the entire day going through paperwork, filling out things he's suppose to, getting on the phone to find out meetings he's missed, and what they involved. He then went through the schematics of all the inventions that he's supposedly made. That alone shocked him to see what he invented, rather impressed. He found some of the things he made, and even took them back apart, to see how they did what they did, quite fascinated by his own designs.

By mid-afternoon, Mokuba had returned home. He ran to Kaiba's office, and hugged his brother, saying, "Hey big brother......it's great to see you!" So happy that he was seeing more of him again, and not having to do his work. He then looked around the office, saying, "Why did you break your stuff?"

"I wanted to see how it worked.......I couldn't remember by just looking at it." He explained. Kaiba then turned to his brother, saying, "Mokuba.......this question might be hard on you, but you're the only one I can ask."

"Okay......." Mokuba said, nervously.

"What happened to our parents?" He asked.
