"Kari this is Tea!" Mokuba introduced the two

Kari shook Tea's hand. Mokuba slipped Tea a few hundred bucks.

"From Seto for Kari" He winked mischievously

"Uh…ok Mokuba" She sweatdroped

"The limo's waiting outside and have fun Kari" He hugged her

"Ok Moki, I will" She said hugging him back

He watched them leave and smiled.

"Moki…I've missed that"


Tea looked over at Kari. She didn't know what to say to her, she hardly knew her but she was spending the day with her, she had to try something.

"Have you settled at Kaiba's ok?"

"I guess…he doesn't like me much though"

"He doesn't like anyone" Tea chuckled lightly

"Why?"

"I dunno…I think that it has something to do with his stepfather"

"The one that overthrew?

"Yea him"

"We're here Miss. Kari" The driver said as he pulled up

"Thanks Jimmy, we'll make our own way back" Kari smiled

"Be careful then"

"Thanks, I will"

Kari and Tea stepped out if the car and waved to the driver as he left then headed into the mall.

"What's Seto into? Besides work"

"Duel monsters, why?"

"I wanna get him something…as a thank you"

"We'll think about something, but first let's shop!"

Tea dragged Kari around all the stores trying everything she liked on, although she didn't buy much. After an hour they went for some lunch and chatted.

"You didn't buy much" Tea commented looking at the bags

"I didn't see the point in buying a lot" Kari shrugged "Once I get my memories back I'll leave"

"So, nothing's come to mind yet?"

Kari shook her head.

"Don't worry it'll come back" Tea reassured

"I'm not" Kari admitted "I'm just worried about being around Seto"

"He not being nice?"

"No, in fact when the elevator stopped between floors he didn't comfort me, just yelled" She explained and took a bite out of a French fry

"Sounds like Kaiba"

"Why does everyone call him Kaiba?" Kari asked raising a brow

"I dunno, we just do"

"A habit huh?

"Yea" Tea laughed "But listen, if he gets too nasty just stand up to him-don't back down"

Kari nodded slowly.

"I'll do that, thanks Tea" She smiled

"No problem" She smiled back


Kari quietly closed the front door and made her way to the stairs.

"And where have you been!?" A harsh, sharp tone rang through the hall

"Shopping with Tea"

"You went shopping with that cheerleader?" Seto snarled

"Do you have a problem with me having a life?" She glared at him

"What life? You don't have one"

"You can't boss me around like one of your workers Kaiba!"

"While you're under my roof I can!"

"Well I'm not taking any of it!!" She growled

"Get out then!!" He ordered

"Fine I will!!!"

Kari stormed upstairs to her room and started to pack. Mokuba saw this.

"What you doing Kari?"

"I…I'm leaving I'm sorry"

"Why? Why you going!?" His eyes filled up with tears

"Moki…please don't cry"

"No please, please don't go!" Tears ran down his face

"Moki…Seto and I aren't getting along…there's no point in me staying"

Mokuba hugged her tight and cried into her shirt.

"It's not fair! It's not!"

"I know Moki but, life isn't fair…look what it did to me"

"You can have a new life here though! Please don't go!"

"If I don't go now…I'll end up going later and it'll be harder then"

"Don't go ever then!" He pleaded

"If I ever get my memories back I might want to go back to my family"

"But what if you don't?"

"I'll…come visit"

"That's not good enough! I want you to stay!"

"Mokuba, I'm going I'm sorry"

She pulled herself from his grip and walked down stairs.
