Chapter 7: The Unwanted Call
|
Seto lay motionless under the covers now. The distant sound of feet running on carpet could be heard. Ice blue eyes slowly opened. Seto took a moment to look around him to see that he was back in his bed. Everything was normal. Well, almost normal. He felt exhausted as if he had been studying for school for hours.
He felt the sweat on his nightclothes and sheets. "…why…am…I so…tired?" He made an attempt to get up but couldn't find the strength to move his arms. "…maybe I did have a seizure…"
He stayed still for a while before trying to move again. This time when he tried to move, he was able to move his arms a little, but not enough to push himself up. "Damn…how long does this whole tiredness state last?"
BRING!!!! BRING!!!! BRING!!!!
He looked over at his phone on his nightstand and tried to reach for it. He made it to the phone and answered it. "Hello?"
"Yes is this Seto Kaiba?"
"Yes, who's this?"
"This is your doctor, Dr. Stiller. You remember me right?"
"Yes, of course. Now what is it you want?"
"You sound tired, have you been sleeping?"
"Yes, in fact I just woke up. Could you please tell me why you've called? I'd really like to go back to sleep now."
"Oh, of course. I have the results from your tests. But before I get to that, how has your side been?"
"It's been good. Now could you please tell me what needs to be told."
"Yes, well…as it turns out, you're in tip-top shape. But…"
"But what? You said I was in tip-top shape-"
"Physically."
"What do you mean 'Physically'?"
"Exactly what it means. Physically, you're as healthy as they come, but mentally is another story."
"Are you saying that I'm crazy?"
"Basically, yes."
"…YOU MUST BE NUTS YOURSELF! HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT TO ME!"
"Mr. Kaiba, your tests revealed that you're suffering from schizophrenia. Some of the symptoms of schizophrenia are hallucinations…"
…hallucinations…like when I was shot…
"…withdrawals…"
…withdrawals…I'm guessing the whole ordeal with the seizure would be a withdrawal…
"…or discussions with a nonexistent third party with references to the subject as though he or she were not there…"
…good thing I haven't been talking with that freaky dream woman…then again why would I talk to a dream woman? But…he did say 'or'…
"…Now Mr. Kaiba, have you experienced any of these symptoms? I want the truth."
"What is it your business what goes on around here?"
"Mr. Kaiba, this is a serious condition. If you are suffering from schizophrenia, then we have to get you some therapeutic help-"
"Like I said before, I am NOT crazy!"
"Mr. Kaiba! The tests clearly state that-"
"I DON'T CARE WHAT THE TESTS SAY! I KNOW I'M NOT CRAZY!"
"…I didn't know you had been dealing with this for this long…"
"What are you saying?"
"Usually when a person is suffering from schizophrenia for a long period of time, they decline the theory of it and that usually makes it worse. It would be better if you just let us take you to the hospital…Mr. Kaiba?"
"…We have nothing more to discuss. Good-bye." And with that, he slammed the phone down on the receiver. By now, his strength had returned and he was sitting on the edge of his bed. There's absolutely no way I can…no there's no proof except that of the CAT scans…
"Seto?" He looked up to find Mokuba at his door.
"What is it kiddo?" He tried to make it less obvious that bad news had been delivered. But it wasn't working as well as he thought it was working.
"Is it true?"
"Is what true?"
"About….About…About you…having schizophrenia?" That was the straw that broke the camels back.
"How did you find out about that?" Seto looked up at his little brother to see tears in his eyes. "Don't cry, come here." He motioned for his brother to come over to him.
