The Forbidden Love
Chapter Seven: The Amusement Park Meeting
Early the next morning, Kaiba was aware that it was a Sunday meaning no meetings, no seminars or any media bugging him. It was a time to relax and unwind and he was about to catch some more z's until he remembered a promised he made yesterday.
"Damn, I forgot! I promised that kid I would go to the amusement park with her friends. My God, why did I make such an agreement!"
Trudgingly he put on a different attire than the one that he wore all week, got his keys and went out the door. He did these things after he phoned his home. Three rings and a voice answered.
"Hello, Kaiba residence."
"Is Mokuba there?" Kaiba asked.
"I'm sorry, who is this?"
"Tell him it's his brother." A short silence and the same voice returned.
"I'm sorry Mr. Kaiba but I'm afraid that your brother is under the weather."
"Is he alright? Is he hurt?"
"No, not that. He caught a cold while not wearing a coat when it rained yesterday. I told him that you called and he promised that he would return your call right away."
"… …okay." He hung up the receiver. That kind of news would give anyone on edge. The well-being of his brother meant a lot to him. "Wondering what's happening? Mokuba…you better be not doing anything stupid…" He got on the road as soon as he had breakfast. By that time it was about 9:30 when he had gotten to the train station. (He had to ask an old lady who at first thought he was a robber. He had gotten a lump on the head before she told her where the train station was.) He got off, rubbing his head.
"Damn old lady. I'll see she gets arrested for this…" Kaiba didn't have to look for long because she soon saw Sakura, sitting by her lonesome. He went to her.
"Good morning!" Sakura said happily.
"Energetic as always," Kaiba said. "Is there a time when you tune down?"
"Only when I sleep."
"Oh." He took a seat right beside her. Sakura brought a red knapsack and was rummaging through it. She mumbled to herself, "Where did I put that thing?"
"What?" Kaiba asked. "What did you say?"
"Oh, I was looking for a snack. Funny…I thought I…Oh, no!"
"What's wrong?"
"He ate it!"
"Who?"
Sakura, quickly realizing her fault said, "Oh, my brother…yeah…he probably ate my snack I brought for today…"
"Right…" They both watched people passing them by, doing their own business. Kaiba was looking around when the key around Sakura's neck caught his eye.
"What…is that?" Kaiba pointed at her key.
"Oh, this…um…this…this is something that a special individual gave to me…"
"Really?"
"Yes…it's very important to me."
"Why is that?"
"Because…no, forget it you wouldn't understand." Seeing Sakura defend like this, Kaiba didn't persist any longer. "Okay."
Sakura gave a sigh of relief. Then they both saw Madison, Chelsea and Zackary running towards them.
"Sakura!" Madison greeted them.
"Hi guys! What took you?" Sakura shouted back. As they conversed with each other, Kaiba just stood away from them. They all boarded the train and while the group talked, Kaiba just looked at the scenery. Little did he know that the group was having a secret conversation about him.
"I think he's creepy…" Chelsea whispered.
"He looks so-so to me," Zackary replied.
"I looked him up on the internet," Madison said. "It seems he knew more about the game 'duel monsters. Furthermore his company, KaibaCorp, is something out of this world.'"
"Really?" Sakura asked.
"Yeah. It seems that KaibaCorp is more than a gaming company. KaibaCorp specializes in making 3D technology and virtual reality games."
"Amazing."
"So, what was that have to do with duel monsters?" Chelsea asked.
"It seems that he's the second ranked best duelist in the world! What were doing is the old fashioned dueling. He's created things called duel disks that makes the creatures on the cards come to life."
"Are you serious?"
"Yep."
"I can hear you, you know." They turned around to see Kaiba looking at them. "If you wanted to know about me and what my company did all you had to do was ask." They all blushed at once as Kaiba gave a smirk. They all got off and walked only a short distance to the amusement park. The park was extra crowded.
"It's busy today," Sakura pointed out. "Maybe we should go tomorrow?"
"We're all ready here, what the point?" Zackary asked.
"Good point," Kaiba mumbled. Then he looked around and saw someone familiar. On the bench sat Yugi. "Just a minute. I'll be right back." He ran towards the bench where Yugi was eating a bag of potato chips.
" Yugi…"
" Oh, hey Kaiba! How's it going?"
" Don't tell me you're like Wheeler."
" Oh, so Joey was here too?"
"Yeah, yesterday."
" Did you figure out the message he gave you?"
Kaiba looked at Sakura. "I think I did."
"Then in that case, the next message is: find out her secret."
" Her…secret. Now that you've mentioned it…She was acting weird when I asked her about her key."
" That's good to know," Yugi said while getting up. "Anyways, I've gotta run." He then ran towards the crowd.
" Wait, Yugi!" Kaiba called out. Too late. He was gone. Kaiba went back to the group who were about the enter the park.
"Well, did you find what you were looking for?" Madison asked him.
"… … …"
"Not much of a talker," Zackary pointed out.
"That's what I said the first time I met him," Madison giggled.
"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go!" The group walked in as Kaiba trailed behind them. "This is going to be a nuisance. Another message…What is that kid suppose to show me?"
Does anyone know what will happen next? Who is our mysterious person that shows Kaiba to change? (If you read the chapter, you should know!) Anyways, please R&R.
