Love is Blind
Chapter 9: I knew it…
Previously…
A very hyper Mokuba and a ready to kill CEO and no body know why except Yami, who now remembered he was supposes to tell Anzu the news on why Seto is going to be late and the serious problem he was facing right now meaning the problem he caused.
Wohooo! Let's begin again!
"Hey Set…" Anzu was about to greet the CEO but Yami stopped her because he is afraid that Seto will unleash his anger on her. Anzu looked at him funny but understood what Yami meant so she just sat there quietly.
Serenity was puzzled by their reaction because they became silent when someone came in and she heard Anzu greeted that person but stopped and stayed silent like doll.
The room stayed silent until someone poked Serenity on the side while asking her who she is. Serenity wondered is this the person they were waiting for.
She smiled and introduced herself to the person beside her; "Hello I'm Serenity nice to meet you!" she beamed at the person who by the way stopped poking her.
Mokuba smiled at her and introduced himself "HewowmywamewisMokubaKaibaandI'm11werswoldhehehe! wivinamansionbwithmybwotherSetoKaibaandwealsoowntheKaibaCorporation yipeeee!" Mokuba jumped at what he said and run inside the whole room toppling some bowls on the table spilling the contents.
Serenity couldn't understand what he was saying except some words like Mokuba...Kaiba…yippee and Corporation because it was too fast and it was jumbled up. She just pretended that she understood everything and sighed loudly when she heard Anzu and Yami trying to save the bowls and plates on the table whenever Mokuba gets close to it.
She guessed that they just don't want to waste the food and with the so called 'information' she got the havoc maker is a boy. (A/N: I guess even rich people hates to waste food and older kids get sugar high like this! I know I do! But not like this. (0--))
Seto just stood there following his brother with his eyes, causing chaos inside the room. He encountered things like this whenever Mokuba tried to eat a sack of sweets and he hated it because he couldn't control him and Mokuba would only stop if he throws it all up.
He sighed and walked towards Mokuba who is still running around like a lunatic. He was about to stop him when he heard someone call his brother.
"Mokuba…" Seto looked at the guest he was suppose to meet in exchange for the cough tape cough. He was surprised to see the woman he wanted revenge on. Seto couldn't believe his luck. He wanted to make her suffer for what she did and he wanted it so bad that he couldn't wait to do it. He was about to seat beside her but Mokuba ran past him and positioned himself first.
"Mokuba please stop, you're going to wreck the place so please stop it!" she asked politely. Seto snorted because he knows Mokuba is not going to listen to someone when he's in this state.
"Sorry" Seto's jaw almost dropped when he heard Mokuba replied calmly like he wasn't in a sugar high. Disbelief was written on his face when the raven haired boy ate the food that Serenity is offering.
"Come on big brother the food is almost gone!" Mokuba cheerfully called the CEO.
Seto walked slowly towards the table and sat himself on the middle. He looked at his brother like he has a disgusting disease.
Anzu's jaw dropped and Yami stared at the scene wide eyed and speechless. Both of them couldn't believe that Serenity could easily control Mokuba. Even his own brother wasn't able to do anything about it and yet Serenity just called him and he calmed down just like that. They eyed Serenity who is quietly eating then Mokuba who is happy eating beside Serenity then at Seto who is currently staring at his brother. Both Yami and Anzu looked at each other and felt confused.
"What just happened here?" asked Anzu
"I don't have the slightest clue!" Yami replied while trying to close Anzu's mouth
"HEY!" shouted Anzu while slapping Yami.
"Close your mouth it doesn't suit you" he replied while smiling at her. Anzu pouted and started to eat before Mokuba and Serenity eat them all. Seto noticed this and shook his head snapping out of his temporary shock and started eating as well while eyeing Mokuba intently.
Almost everybody is eating quietly because Mokuba and Serenity are talking with each other. She asked Mokuba to introduce himself again because she didn't understand what he said earlier. He smiled and gladly introduced himself to her again.
They were so engrossed with their conversation that they didn't notice that someone was watching them keenly especially Serenity. When Seto started eating he contemplates on the idea that Serenity managed to calm Mokuba down effortlessly. He also noticed that whenever she looked at something or someone her eyes never changed and it remains empty. He pondered on this and kept staring at her.
Anzu noticed what Seto is doing and smiled secretly. She elbowed Yami on his side causing the sushi to fall on the floor. Yami rubbed his side and gave her a questioning look. She motioned her head towards Seto. He looked at where Anzu is pointing and noticed that Seto is in fact staring at Serenity.
Yami blinked a few times and smiled as well. Then suddenly an idea hit him; he needed someone to post as Seto's wife and right now his friend seems interested on Serenity plus Serenity needed some money for her operation.(A/N: Oh boy here he goes again! )
He stared at Serenity and recalled the descriptions that Seto gave him before.
"I don't care if she's brunette, auburn, red head or blonde…"
"Serenity's hair is auburn so we don't have any problem on that part" Yami thought to himself.
"She must have a white complexion or a fair one…"
"Hmmm…I think she fits that description as well"
"A woman with a honey colored eyes or a bright blue one…"
"A honey colored eyes or a blue one…?" He stared at Serenity's eyes and wondered what color her eyes are. He's not sure if it's brown or honey colored because her eyes are like a pool of void and he knows the reason why. He skipped that part and went to the next clue.
"She must also be at least four or five ft tall…"
Yami nudged Anzu and asked her what Serenity's height is. Anzu glared at him but answered him.
"I think she's 5 ft tall, why?" she asked curious on why he wanted to know.
"I'll tell you everything later" he replied while moving on to the next description.
"Has a slim figure and a long waist length hair."
"She's not fat and she's not thin also so I think that counts as slim…plus she has a waist length hair and she's no model but she has the looks!" Yami wondered if Seto saw her before because his description fit's her like a dress. He shoved the thought aside. He tried to remember the other descriptions Seto told him.
"I want someone with brains, looks, and attitude but not too much though, graceful and not obsessed with me."
"Not obsessed with him…and has an attitude, grace, brains…sigh" Yami was starting to get a headache form this because he doesn't know Serenity that much to know if she got all those characteristics. He rubbed the bridge between his eyes hoping it will stop the coming headache.
"Are you ok Yami?" she stopped talking to Mokuba and asked him worriedly.
"Yes I'm fine just a little headache." Serenity rummaged through her bag and pull out a medicine.
"Here take this, it will stop the headache." she handed him the medicine.
"I always bring some medicine with me in case I don't feel well and besides I studied a little bit of medicine before I become you know what." she explained to him. Yami thanked her and accepted the medicine. In an instant his headache was gone.
Seto was intrigued about what she said and he wanted to know what happened to her. He wanted to hear her say that she was kicked out for being the slowest student in class or that she was poor and can't afford to pay the rest of the tuition fee or because she was a bad student. So he let his presence to be known to her.
"Care to tell me what happened to you?"
Serenity's expression changed into something serious because she thought that there are only four of them inside the room. Yami's smile faded and stared at Serenity thingking that she was hurt at what Seto said. Anzu knows Seto's behavior towards these kinds of situations and she is sure that Serenity will be hurt afterwards. Mokuba was still eating while staring at his big brother and everybody.
"Umm…I didn't notice that someone is there!" she replied.
"And why would you say that? Can't you see me or something?" Seto replied not hiding the irritation in his voice and at the same time feeling insulted at what she said.
"Oh! Sorry, to tell you the truth…" she was about to explain that reason but she felt Seto stood up.
"Apology is not accepted unless you have a good reason for me to forgive you!" he said crossing his arms on his chest.
"Seto I think that's enough!" butted Anzu and Yami at the same time. They looked at each other but they stared at Seto instead.
"Why? Is there something you're hiding from me!" he asked questioningly
They were stunned when they heard Serenity speak with her usual tone. "Well I'm not hiding it coz I already accepted it!" she looked up at him.
"Serenity…" Anzu sighed and allowed her friend to explain everything.
"You see Mr. ummm…"
"Kaiba" he added harshly
"Right…Mr. Kaiba sorry…anyway I was about to explain it when you rudely interrupted me so please before you say anything listen first."
"HOW DARE YOU TELL ME WHAT TO DO?"
"If you don't want to listen that's fine with me but if you do want to know the reason then please shut up!" Serenity tried to suppress her anger but Seto is annoying her with is stubborn replies.
"Grrrrr…FINE!"
"Thank you! Well to make it short…I'm temporarily blind, so does that answer your question Mr. Kaiba?" she told him simply. Anzu, Yami and Mokuba gawked at them and then they burst into applause because no one can make the CEO of Kaiba Corporation agree on something if he's not going to benefit on it and the only way he would do it was if you take drastic measures to convince him. (A/N: take Anzu's drastic measure for example! )
Anzu hugged Serenity and Yami ruffled her hair. Mokuba was cheering for her too. She was baffled because of their action.
"Wow Serenity you're cool!"
"Nice job Serenity!"
"Serenity, Serenity, Serenity…"
Seto was still processing her explanation to care about his surroundings for the moment. Now everything was clear to him on why she wasn't fazed when he glared at her or why her eyes are blank. Seto was looking at the spot where Serenity was before. He lowered his head and laughed out loud. Everyone looked at him quizzically and they became silent.
"Hahahaha! I can't believe I'm being acquainted to a blind person. Hahahaha!" Seto looked at Serenity with a triumphant smile when he saw her lower her head.
"Seto! How could you?" Anzu was fuming with anger. She wasn't going to stand there and let him insult her friend.
"You know Anzu when Yami introduced you to me I thought you're not stupid but I guess looks can fool anyone!" he said harshly to her. Anzu was infuriated at him and tried to hold back the tears that's threatening to fall from her eyes but she was really hurt at what he said to her. Even Mokuba was surprised at what Seto said.
"You know that she will only be a burden to you right? I guess you don't because you still made her your friend!" he spat cruelly. This made Anzu cry even more.
Yami was outraged because Seto had just made Anzu cry and he said some mean things to her and that is the thing he won't allow to happen. He was about to punch Seto when Serenity stopped him and went towards Seto.
Seto just smirked at Serenity when she neared him. She couldn't take his cold and arrogant attitude anymore. He mocked her for being blind. He insulted her friend then he made her friend cry with his bitter words.
"What can a blind woman like you do to me!" he mocked her thinking she will cry like Anzu.
"YOU…YOU BASTARD!" Serenity spat while she threw a mean punch on Seto's face. Serenity is not usually like this but she can't help it, Seto provoked her to be so she hit his shin so he would fall a bit (A/N: if Seto's your companion, even the most innocent person will go berserk. ). Seto winced from the pain that she caused. He hoped on one leg while easing the pain on the other. Yami and Mokuba stared at Serenity and Anzu stopped crying when she heard the auburn haired woman shout and hit the CEO.
Seto was really enraged at Serenity and walked towards her again to make her pay for what she did but she was to fast for him because the moment he was close enough to touch her Serenity kicked his 'you know what in the you know where' so hard that he turned violet and fell on the floor. He hauled in pain while holding his possession.
Yami has this pained expression on his face when he saw his friend in pain "That's gotta hurt!"
Anzu burst into laughter when she saw Seto's pained expression. She was laughing so hard that she rolled on the floor holding her side. Mokuba joined her and started to roll on the floor as well.
The waitress entered the room when she heard someone yelling and someone in pain. Then there she saw the great CEO of Kaiba Corporation whimpering in pain while an auburn haired woman standing above him arms crossed and an infuriated expression sketch on her face. The waitress gawked at the scene and tried her best not to laugh. She was about to close the door when Yami called her.
"Excuse me! Please don't mention this 'incident' to anyone else ok!" Yami told her.
"Yes sir!" she answered politely while giggling.
"That's what a blind woman can do to someone like YOU!" she spat the 'you' word. Serenity turned around and was surprised to see that Anzu was already laughing with Mokuba and Yami is shaking his head. She looked back at Seto and she saw him still holding his possession while on the floor. She bit her bottom lip and felt guilty for what she did. She guessed that she must have poured all her anger on that last attack. She asked Yami to help Seto but he was already joining Mokuba and his girlfriend's continuous guffaw.
"DAMN!" Seto bellowed
"KAIBA I'M SO SORRY I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT YOU…well actually I did…BUT NOT THAT HARD! Here I'll help you get up!"
"GRRRRRRR…GET AWAY FROM ME!"
"Hahaha…come on Seto I'll help you up!" offered Yami
"I DON'T NEED YOU'RE HELP, I CAN GET UP ON MY OWN!"
"Suit yourself!" Yami said.
Seto tried to stand up but the pain is surging through his legs making him feel like his legs are made of jelly. Yami took pity on him and helped him up even though he protested and pushed him away several times. Even Anzu and Serenity are helping him. Anzu put his arm around her neck so she could carry him and Serenity did the same. Yami led the way out and Mokuba…well he didn't really help. He just followed them out. (A/N: He's too weak to help carry Seto. )
They went out at the back door of the restaurant so they wouldn't attract a lot of attention. Yami left them to get his car so he could drive Seto to his private hospital because Seto doesn't want to be seen in this state.
Yami came back with his black car and asked Seto if the girls and Mokuba could go home using his limo. He thought for a second and glared at Serenity.
"I will allow ANZU to be sent home with my limo but not this…this…woman!" he pointed to his right. Seto slapped himself mentally because he couldn't even think of an insult for her.
He hated her with all his heart but there is something in her that amused him. He disposed of that idea and told Mokuba to call the limo to pick up the Anzu but she snagged the cell away using her free hand and she placed it back in Seto's trench coat.
"I'm not going home in your limo if Serenity's not with me!" she said stubbornly.
"Anzu…" she whispered feeling touched.
"We will just take the bus!"
"NO, you're not allowed to take the bus Anzu. Something might happen to you!" said Yami concerned.
"Come on Seto let her go already!" added Yami
"NO!"
"Please big brother!"
"NO!"
"Oh Seto…" Anzu waved the tape in front of him threatening him that she will use it if he won't allow Serenity to come as well. Unfortunately for her Seto grabbed it smiled victoriously at her.
"Seto give it back!"
"No, a deal is a deal. You said I would just meet her and I would get the tape back and I did."
"No fair!" Anzu crossed her arms and sighed in defeat.
"Seto! Let Serenity go home using you limo!" Yami said getting irritated already.
"Why don't you use Anzu's limo then?"
"Because the driver asked me if he could go on a vacation after he gave me a ride here and I agreed so no one can bring it here!" defended the blue eyed woman.
"WHAT"S YOUR PROBLEM KAIBA, I ALREADY TOLD YOU I'M SORRY! AND HERE I THOUGHT YOU'RE A REAL MAN!" questioned Serenity while hiding her intentions.
"WHAT?"
"YOU HEARD ME! A REAL MAN CAN TAKE HIS OWN DEFEAT!"
"YOU DIDN'T WON OVER ME YET uhhhh…uhhhh" his enraged voice trailed off because he didn't know her last name.
"Serenity Wheeler!" she filled him in.
"I know that!" he retorted. He's so unaware of everything that her surname didn't even ring a bell.
"Right…the great Kaiba knows everything except how to defend himself from a woman!" she ridiculed him.
"WHEELER JUST WAIT! I'LL GET MY REVENGE ON YOU!"
"Oh! Don't worry I'll wait" she said sweetly
"So big brother can she go?"
"NO!"
"PLEASE!" pleaded Anzu
"NO!"
Seto couldn't take it anymore. He's losing his patience already and if Anzu whined more he's gonna explode and do something bad to her. Serenity thought of something so they could get out of this place already and then and idea struck her.
She leaned on Kaiba's ear and whispered something to him that made his face grow a red tinge on it. Everyone looked at them weirdly. Serenity pulled away and smiled at him. Seto observed her looking for any signs of bluffing but he found none.
"Fine you can go! But beware Wheeler I will have my revenge!"
"Okay thanks Kaiba you're not that bad after all!"
"Serenity you're a genius
"Mokuba call the driver!"
"Yes big brother!" said Mokuba enthusiastically
When the limo arrived, Anzu dragged Serenity inside followed by Mokuba. They waved their goodbye and then the limo drove away. When they are inside Anzu asked Serenity on what she had said to make Seto say yes. She told them that it's a secret and if they really want to know, she would just have to tell them if they see each other again. Little did Serenity know that they will meet sooner than she thinks!
Meanwhile Yami helped Seto settled inside his car and drive off to his private hospital. (A/N: Yup Seto has his own hospital and he, Mokuba, Yami and I guess Anzu is the only one allowed to use it! )
While driving to the hospital, he went back to his previous thoughts. He smiled to himself because she qualified for the smart and 'a little attitude' description of Seto. He imagined what would happen if Seto married her. Serenity will be able to control both Kaiba. Then an image of Seto wearing a pink apron popped out of his mind while driving.
