Chapter 3

The sun's rays shined into the young woman's room, lighting up the chamber. The young lady stirred; seconds later her alarm goes off.

"Good morning Domino. Time to wake up and get to work. It's a lovely Monday, with temperatures up in the lower 70s. So, go out there, and enjoy this lovely weather," announced the DJ. A hand came out of the bundle of covers, and slammed on the clock.

'Lovely indeed. God, I was in the middle of a wonderful dream too.' The young lady unwillingly got out of bed to get ready for the day ahead of her.

'I need a shower.' She gathered her things, went into her personal bathroom, undressed, turned on the shower, and stepped into the warm water.

'I wonder if Kaiba went to bed at all. Knowing him, he probably didn't. When I'm done, I'll wake up the kids and get them ready for school.' Ten minutes later, done with her shower, dressed and ready, the lady went into the girl's room to wake up the little girl.

"Guinivere. Come on baby, time to get ready for school." Guinivere looked at who woke her up, and saw her nanny.

"Five more minutes please," she begged. The nanny smiled, and tried again.

"No honey. If you don't get up now, you're going to be late. I'm sure your father won't be too happy if that happens. Come on. Up. That a girl." With much effort, Guinivere was able to get up and out of her bed.

"Now, get dressed. I'll be downstairs getting breakfast ready." The lady exited Guinivere's room, and went into Bobby's to wake up the little boy.

"Bobby sweetie, time to get up. You don't want to be late for first day of school."

"But I don't wanna go," he whined, pulling the covers over his head. The lady sighed.

"Come on. Either you get up now, or I'm pulling the covers off young man," she scold. That got the little boy's attention; he got up and started to dress.

"That a boy. I'll see you downstairs in 10 minutes. If you're not downstairs by then, then I'll know that you fell asleep." She exited his room, went into the kitchen, and began preparing breakfast. The sound of footsteps was heard later, and in came Guinivere and Bobby.

"Ok you two. Eat up, and I'll go and check up on your father," she instructed.

"But Tea, daddy didn't go to bed last night," answered Gwen.

"How did you know?"

"Cuz he never goes to bed. He sleeps in his study."

'He's hopeless,' the lady thought to herself. "Alright. I'll go into his study and wake him up. Meanwhile, you two eat up." She left the kitchen, and searched for his office. Five minutes later, she finally found it (after opening so many doors in the long hallway). The sight before her surprised her. She expected him to be up, with a cup of coffee and working diligently on his latest project. Instead, she found him asleep on the couch. On top of him was a red-leather cover book.

'Poor guy,' the lady thought to herself. She quietly went inside; she carefully took the book off of him. Unfortunately, it wasn't careful enough. Seto started to stir, and he opened his eyes to see that Tea was in his study.

"What are you doing in here," he interrogated. She did nothing more but just smile.

"Well, good morning to you too sleepy head. It's 7:30 in the morning, and it's time to send your kids off to school," she informed him. Seto grunted as he got up; he ran a hand through his disheveled hair and got up.

"You may want to get dressed first," recommended the lady.

"I know, I know. Bye. I'll be at the office until 7 tonight." And with that, he left.

'I wonder what the book was,' she thought to herself. She picked it up, and immediately recognized the contents inside.

'No wonder he was looking at this. Poor guy; I just wish that there was something that I can do.'

A.N.: Well? Ok ok ok. I know; this is a weird style of writing. J.D. Salinger used this type of writing style for his short story Banana Fish. I was just experimenting this style. If you hate it, please tell me. Don't worry; this will be the only time I'll write like this. Just trying something new, that's all. Anyways, you all know the drill. Read and review. NO FLAMES OR YE SHALL FEEL MY WRATH (I know it's getting old, but oh well).
