The group heads towards the amusement park and when they got there Kaiba spots Yugi and with him another message. What do they all mean?

Don't own CC or Y

The Forbidden Love

Chapter Eight: Philosophical Discussion

The group headed towards the center of the amusement park. People are happily dispersed among friends and family. As Chelsea and Zackary go the information booth to get a map, the rest of the group wonders about what to do next.

"Well, we're here…What to we do now?" Madison asked.

"Why don't we take a look around," Sakura said. "See what this park has to offer."

"Sounds like a plan to me," Kaiba pointed out. "Let's go."

After Chelsea and Zackary returned, they group then headed towards all the rides. It was apparent that everyone was having fun and enjoying themselves. Everyone…except for Kaiba. Sakura noticed this and right then and there she hatched a plan.

"Madison," Sakura asked her, "why don't you take Zackary and Chelsea over to the ice cream parlor over there and get us some ice cream." She handed some money over to Madison.

"Sakura, don't you realize that there's one heck of a line there?" Chelsea asked.

"… … …" Sakura was trying to think of a good explanation without revealing her real motive.

"Sakura?"

"Um…"

"Oh, I get it," Madison thought. "Chelsea, do we really need to argue about this? If Sakura's paying for the ice cream then we shouldn't complain."

"I'm just asking…"

Zackary tugged on Chelsea arm. "Come on Chelsea! My chocolate favored ice cream isn't going to get itself!" He then turned to Sakura. "What are you going to do in the meanwhile?"

Sakura looked down and blushed. "Well…I thought I take a ride on the Ferris Wheel. Will you join me, Mr. Kaiba?"

"Uh….What is this kid trying to pull? Well, okay. I don't want to hurt the kid's feelings…"

"Okay!" she grabbed Kaiba arm and pulled him towards the Ferris Wheel. "Let's go!" They picked a Ferris Wheel car and they were notified that the ride goes around for three times. The ride started slowly and between them was an dead silence.

"Why did I agree to do this anyways?" Kaiba thought to himself. Then he saw that Sakura was looking down. "Why are you…looking down?" Kaiba asked.

"Ummm…"

"Trying to think of a good reason? Well it won't work this time. Why don't you really tell me why you're doing this."

She looked at him, "Because…I could see that you weren't enjoying yourself."

"Am I supposed to?"

"You were once happy…You told me that…Why aren't you happy now?"

"Yeah. I was happy, for a time… I was happy when I was ranked the top duelist in the world and I was happy when my brother even showed that he loved me. All those things are gone now so what am I suppose to be happy for?"

"Are you happy for material things? For status? You should be happy for the things you still have."

"That's ridiculous…All the things I have aren't satisfying to me. I still need those things in order for me to feel good."

"A good thing about life…is that you can always get it back."

"… … …Why are you cheerful?"

"What?"

"I asked you 'why are you cheerful?' and you replied that 'that's the way I am'…I don't follow."

"It is because the way I am that makes me cheerful. I am the one that is thankful for all the things that makes me who I am. My friends, my family, the most important people to me. I choose to be like this…we choose to become who we are."

"This is girl for real? I choose to become secluded and cut off from people who try to help me. That the way I choose myself."

"…Then, Mr. Kaiba, I feel sorry for you."

"Humph…lots of people have felt sorry for me. You wouldn't understand how I feel.

"No…I do understand how you feel…I could sense it."

"What?"

"Now you wouldn't understand that…how I could feel what you feel."

"… … …I don't believe in any magical nonsense and I not starting to believe it in some girl... I don't need friends."

Sakura looked at him straight in the eyes, "How could you say that? How could you stand being all alone?"

"I have my brother. I need no one else."

"But you're losing him, aren't you?"

"How…how did you…"

"I said that I could feel what you feel, remember?"

"Hmmm."

"So you choose to be cut off from the people who care about you and shun everyone around you."

"Yeah…What's your point."

"The point is that you're making yourself miserable."

"Kid, I've been always miserable. Always worked for me." The ride came to a complete stop and Sakura was the one who came off first. Zackary, Chelsea and Madison were waiting for them. She turned around to Kaiba.

"I truly feel sorry for you, Mr. Kaiba. Being miserable doesn't make you more or less of a person…it just makes you more miserable." She walked over to her friends.

"What? What did she mean by that?" Kaiba wondered. He wondered about what she said all day.

Kaiba's entire day was spent on thinking about what Sakura said to him. Even at bedtime, he couldn't help but think about what she said:

"Being miserable doesn't make you more or less of a person…it just makes you more miserable."

"What did she mean? I don't understand. What did she mean?" He went to sleep with the thought imprinted on his mind.
