Disclaimer: I hope everyone is enjoying the extension, because I only own what's mine, no more, no less. I know, I've been bad with the updating, but it was the holiday and that's family time. Boo... hiss.. just kidding! On with the story...

He tapped the end of his pen against the desktop; he had been there for hours now. The morning was inching nearer towards noon. He decided that as soon as it reached twelve o'clock he would head home. He would take a break from his office duties and relax. Téa would be out with her mother by the time he arrived at the mansion. He would pretty much be alone, except for the help, but they would be in the other part of the house, most likely playing poker or some game that risked the money they earned. He put his pen down and looked at his laptop screen and clicked the save button. He ejected the disk and opened his briefcase and tossed it inside before closing the top. There was a brief knock on his door before it opened, his secretary smiled and stepped inside. Making her way to the desk she flashed him a smile before asking if he wanted her to order his lunch.

"No, Alice. I'll be going home… now." He shut down his laptop and closed it. He opened the bottom drawer and placed the notebook inside and shut the drawer and locked it. He got up from his chair and lifted his briefcase. He pulled his blue trench on and wrapped the scarf Téa and Cole had got him. She smiled at him, one hand holding her wrist. "Yes, I feel a little ridiculous."

"But she got it for you."

"Correct and her son. Let's leave it at that." She nodded and he left his office, making his way towards the elevator. He stepped inside and remembered when he got stuck inside. He shook that off, it couldn't happen again, not likely. Probability. That was the only word he could think of at this moment. The metal doors closed in front of him and he pressed the B button and the elevator jerked then continued it's way down. When the elevator stopped he waited a bit till the door slid open, he stepped out and walked towards the glass doors. He pushed open the door and an employee greeted him, Seto Kaiba, CEO of Kaibacorps, grunted and continued his way out of the building and into the parking lot.

The limo was waiting for him. He walked over to the back and opened the door, climbing inside. "Was it a good day, sir?" The driver asked as Kaiba slammed the door shut and leaned back against the leather seats.

"More or less. Let's go home." The driver nodded and pulled out of the parking space.

Téa was just pulling out of the driveway when Cole began to fidget in his car seat, trying to push of the seatbelt. She sighed, "Stop it, Cole. Keep the seatbelt on." He said his favorite word, the word she dreaded and wished now more than ever that she had never said in front of the boy,

"No!" he said firmly. "Off!"

"Honey, keep the belt on. I'll get it off as soon as we see grandma." She feared that he would have a tantrum, but instead he gave up on taking the belt off and folded his arms, huffing. She closed her eyes for a second and felt relieved. Nothing was worse than your child throwing a tantrum. The ride to where she would be meeting her mother didn't take them very long, within a couple of minutes they were there; it was a matter of parking her car. She found a spot but she would have to walk to the restaurant. She unbuckled the seatbelt and opened the door. She stepped out, opened the back door, shut the front door and climbed inside. She unbuckled the seatbelt and lifted Cole out of the seat. She rested him on her lap and grabbed her purse on the floor. She inched out of the car, set one foot at a time on the pavement and stood straight, hitting her head. She swore in her head and bit gently on her bottom lip. She shut the door and pushed the lock button on her key chain. She made her way across the street and ran over to the restaurant. She pulled open the door and shivered. It was windy outside. She lifted Cole a little higher and spotted her mother. She went over to the booth and sat down.

"Téa!"

"Hi." She handed Cole over to her mother and watched her mother shake her son's hand. Téa sat down and rubbed her hands together.

"Did you bring gloves?" Téa shook her head and pulled the beanie of her head. "It's cold out there Téa."

"I know Mom, that's why I put Cole's gloves on."

"Well why didn't you dress properly."

"Because… I had to get Cole ready—" she looked up and saw her father making his way towards them. "Daddy?"

"Hey. Ah, there's my grandson." Téa grinned and moved over. "He's getting big."

"Yes. He is." The waitress then walked over to them.

"I see your party is here. Ready to order, I can start you off with drinks."

Téa walked over to her car and got inside. She shut the door with one hand while the other stuck the key in the ignition. She frowned, but also felt a little relieved. She had just given her son over to her parents for the weekend. It was nice not to have to deal with him but she also missed him, this was what came from motherhood, she didn't want him but at the same time she needed him terribly. She could do without the bad things, like the "N" word, no, and the tantrums and the messes. She weaved her way back into traffic and sighed, pushing her hair out of her face. She fixed her mirror and pressed hard on the gas, the faster she got home the better. She turned her car hard and rolled into the quiet neighborhood. She relaxed on the gas and turned into the gateway, it opened and she pulled it. She parked the car and sat back, letting out a breath. She shut the engine off and opened the car door. She slipped out and grabbed her jacket and shut the door. She walked over to the front door and up the steps. She was about to push open the door when it opened. He blinked at her. "Oh, Seto, you're home."

"Hmm. Yeah." She pushed past him and he closed the door, turning and following her with his eyes. "Where's Cole?"

"With my parents." She walked into the kitchen and pulled open the fridge door and pulled out the pitcher of ice tea. She shut the fridge and grabbed a cup, pouring herself a glass. She sat down on the stool and took a deep drink.

"You okay?" she set down the glass and poured her self more ice tea.

"Fine." Suddenly Mokuba came rushing inside. There was this big bright smile on his face. "What's up Mokuba?" He looked at Téa.

"Even better. Can we go to the park? Please!"

"Why?"

"It's a surprise," Téa looked at Seto and he shrugged.

"It's up to you."

"Why do I feel like you two are setting me up for something."

"Well go change or something."

"You mean we can go?"

"Sure, why not." Téa got up from her seat and exited the kitchen. She headed up the stairs, beginning to pull her shirt off as she reached her floor. She opened her door and went to go put on her denim skirt and her knee high tan boots. She pulled on her blue baby-doll tee and grabbed her white sweatshirt and zipped it up. She headed down the shut her light off and walked over to the next room and closed the door, running her hand over the doorknob. She ran over to the stairs and bounded down. She found the two already wearing their coats.

"Good thing those are flat, we're walking."

"We are." Seto nodded, confirming his brother's words. Mokuba pulled the door open and once they were all out Seto shut and locked the door. Mokuba ran up ahead and Seto extended his arm. Téa looked down to see his hand open, she smiled and put her hand in his, he closed his fingers around her hand and they walked, Seto shoving his other hand into his jacket pocket. They followed Mokuba in complete silence.

Serenity smiled brightly over at her brother as his arm locked around with his girlfriend's. "Thanks, Joey!"

"Well it is Hina Matsuri, Girl's Festival. This is da day I pray for da happiness and prosperity of my little sis and ta help ensure dat she grows up healthy and beautiful. Oh, that's too late, she already did dat half." Serenity smiled and playfully pushed her brother back.

"Well, it's still fun to get out of the house and all your friends are here to." It was true Joey invited everyone, Mai, Yugi, Tristan and Duke, Bakura, Yami and Zahra too.

"Yeah, but Téa ain't here." While they continued walking behind them Téa, Kaiba and Mokuba passed them from behind.

"This is for you."

"For me?"

"You're family too, now." Mokuba said opening his arms wide.

"This Hina Matsuri."

"Yup!" She smiled at him. "That and we all needed to get out of the house." Téa nodded and they started walking again. Her fingers locked with Seto's and the three of them continued walking.
