The Forbidden Love
Chapter Three: Mistress Introduction
By the time that Kaiba reached the airport, there was a buzz in the air and newscasters and news crews were everywhere, swarming his limousine. He got out as quickly as possible, past the newscasters and news crews. Although he liked attention, Kaiba's awareness was elsewhere. His thoughts concentrated on one thing: the relationship with his brother and how it was deteriorating. Even while on the plane, his could only think about the call and his relationship with his brother. He couldn't even enjoy himself while on the aircraft. All he could do, however, was think…
"What can I do? What can I do to make it all better? I tried to change... I really did…He liked me for a time…I can't change again. What did that guy mean? What did he mean?"
He was in deep thought that the plane landed at its destination without him even knowing it. In a dumbfounded sense and once again surrounded by the media, Kaiba walked off the plane and was again inside a limousine that headed towards the city's main store district.He arrived at a luxurious hotel that seemed to have its staffanswer to his every whim. (Because of his reputation and status in society.) As the sun went down, his thoughts were focused on thethings he thought ofon the plane.
The very next morning, he got out and prepared himself for his first meeting with Daidouji's president, Samantha Taylor. His aides were beside him as he walked off to his limousine. One of them came up to him.
"Sir, don't forget that after your meeting you have an appointment with the mayor to discuss future plans for the city at 1:00."
"I know."
"And sir, you also have a press conference with the media at 5:00."
"I know."
"And sir…"
"What is it! I'm not a kid you know."
"Sorry sir. It's just that your brother called. He wanted to you call him right away." Kaiba stopped for a moment. Then turning to the aide.
"I'll handle that later."
The limo sped off. To avoid media attention, he decided to leave the limo 5 km away from the estate. He warned one of Samantha's staff of his plans and told them to leave the back door open to avoid talking the front door. (Which were littered with media.) As he walked from the limo and towards the estate, his thoughts from yesterday reawakened. The more he thought, the more disturbed he was.
"Ways to reconcile with a younger brother…Let's see…Change attitude? Nah, I like it too much. Make friends? Not much of a social person. Enemies become friends? No way in hell I'm going to play friend to a puppy dog slacker Wheeler and his geek squad…"
As he was thinking, he wasn't aware of his surroundings nor of the incoming rollerblader that was coming his way. As Kaiba turned a corner, so did the rollerblader thus crashing into one another. Both of them fell back simultaneously and the documents that Kaiba was carrying were littered on the ground.
"WATCH WHERE YOUR GOING," Kaiba yelled. He then looked at the rollerblader. It was a little girl with a school uniform (a blue/white t-shirt with a yellow/red/white coloured bottom skirt and a white toupee) on who had red and yellow coloured protective gear, and wore a key around her neck. She looked at Kaiba with her big emerald eyes.
"I'm so, so sorry," the girl apologized as she picked up the documents and put them neatly into the folder that they were in. Kaiba quickly grabbed the folder.
"Ah, well…just watch where your going next time, okay?" Kaiba started to leave however not before the girl extended her hand. She gave a big smile.
"I'm Sakura! Sakura Avalon."
"I didn't ask for your name."
"I know, I just like to tell people my name when I'm meeting someone new."
"Aren't you a breath of fresh air."
Ignoring the sarcasm, she asked "So, what's your name?"
"You're kidding."
"What?"
"You don't know who I am?"
"Nope."
"Don't you read the newspaper?"
"Don't have time."
"Don't you watch the news?"
"Find them boring."
"Well…just to be fair. Seto Kaiba."
"Now I remember you!" Sakura said happily. "You're the guy Madison's mom is talking about. You're very powerful."
"Yeah…"
"She says that you can make her or break her!"
"Yeah…um…who is Madison…just asking…"
"Oh, I'm sorry! Madison's my friend. She lives there." Sakura pointed to the estate that Kaiba was going to.
"That's where I'm headed." Kaiba said as he started again.
"Oh, can I come?" Sakura asked.
"What would you?"
"Madison lives there."
"Oh, so your friend's mother is my company's partner."
"I guess so. So…can I come?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because…because…"
"If you can't think of a good reason then I'm coming!"
"But…wait…" Too late. Sakura started right in front of him. "Come on! Madison said to take the back way!"
As so as Sakura proudly marched on, Kaiba just gave a deep sigh and walked on. He thought to himself:
"Just my luck. Geek fest continues…"
He gave himself a light chuckle.
Now that Sakura's here, you think that the story would get a lot more interesting, right? Well, please R&R and I'll see you later.
