Amnesia
Chapter 12.
The doorbell rang at the Kaiba mansion, and Seto Kaiba came to the door, smiling down at his date. "You look incredible." He said, as she looked down and blushed.
Mokuba then ran in, saying, "Seto, who's at the.........oh, hi Serenity! Why are you all dressed.......?" Mokuba stopped, seeing both of them dressed up.
Kaiba smiled, saying, "Hey kiddo........I'm going out for a while. I'll be back, okay?"
"You're dating Serenity??" Mokuba asked, shocked.
He squatted down, saying softly, "Mind your manners. I'll be back later."
They left, and went to an expensive restaurant in town. Kaiba had reservations, and they both took their seat, getting ready to order. He decided not to bring up the brother and ruin the moment until after they finished dinner. So, when they finished their food and drinks, he took her hand, saying, "Serenity, I'd like to talk to you......about your brother."
She put her head down, saying, "Oh, I really don't want to talk about it, right now. I'm still trying to think of a way to tell him about this. He's going to be furious when he finds out."
"Well, listen.......I have a friend, who also has a little sister. He told me his opinion of how he thinks this should be handled, if this situation happened with him." Kaiba explained, her hand still in his grasp, for support.
She gasped, "You told someone about us? What if my brother finds out, now?"
"These people aren't like that.......they're good people. I can trust them. He told me I should face your brother, and explain the situation." Kaiba said.
"No.......you can't do that!" Serenity said. "You don't know my brother. He has this problem with guys because their rich and wealthy, and you're...." '....and you're Seto Kaiba.' She thought at the last moment, not wanting to tell him the whole truth.
"Sounds like someone I fought in school a couple days ago." He said, thinking of the two bullies.
"Oh, no.......I hope you didn't start fighting with him in school again, before you can even remember him." Serenity said, nervous.
"Serenity.......just tell me who your brother is, and give me a chance to get through to him." Kaiba said.
"I......I can't." Serenity said.
"We can't hide this forever. We got to get this out in the open, before it becomes a real problem." Kaiba explained to her.
"Y-you're right. Okay, I'll tell you........his name's Joey, Joey Wheeler." Serenity said.
Kaiba's face paled at the name. 'My best friend......how the hell am I going to explain this to Joey?' He had assumed Joey's little sister was younger than she was, like Mokuba's age. It never even dawned on him that Serenity might be his sister. If Kaiba had his memories, he was sure he would have known.
He paused a long moment, looking at Serenity, then dropped his head, saying, "Shit."
