Chapter Eight
Roland flew to Tokyo to bring Mokuba home. When he pulled the car into the driveway of the Manor, Mokuba got out and ran inside and there stood Tea and she held out her arms and Mokie went to her and as her arms closed around him they sat on the floor and cried tears of sorrow and then Tea wiped his face and she said "We have to talk."
Roland came in and he went to the kitchen and got Greta and they went back to the living room where Tea and Mokie were sitting and then Mokuba asked "What's wrong with my brother?"
Tears filled the adults eyes when he asked that question and then Tea looked up at Roland and Greta and they nodded their heads as if to tell her she could tell him and then she turned back to Mokuba and she said "Your brother is really sick and it doesn't look very good."
Mokuba looked at Roland and Greta and he sobbed "Why, why didn't you both keep him safe like you promised me the day I left to go to school?"
Roland put his arm around Greta and he said in a very stern voice "Listen here young man, it was your brothers own decision to do what he did. You know how stubborn he can be and that he wouldn't listen to anything we said."
Tea then said "Stop it, just stop with the actuations. What Seto did he did because he felt that our marriage was ending and so he went outside our marriage to find someone who he thought could bring him more happiness then I ever could."
Mokuba then said "What did he do that would make him so sick that he'll die, I don't understand what you're saying."
Tea took a deep breath and then she said "Seto started having an affair with a young woman and then when she couldn't satisfy his needs he turned to someone else and it was that person who made him sick."
Mokuba wiped the tears from his face as he asked "Alright who was that person, what was her name?"
Tea closed her eyes and then she said "It wasn't a woman your brother was having an affair with, it was another man and this man was infected with the HIV virus and didn't know it and then he became sick and was tested and that's how he knew that he had AIDS and was dying. He went back to England to live with his younger brother where he died and when your brother found out that he was sick too he wrote me a letter telling me and that he was so remorseful for what he put me through."
Mokuba stood up and he yelled "You're all wrong, Seto isn't going to die he'll get better and come home you'll see. I hate all of you for telling me all the lies about my brother." Then he ran upstairs to his room and slammed the door shut and fell onto the bed crying because he knew what they were saying was the truth but he didn't want to believe them.
Tea sat there and then she stood up and she went outside and walked through the garden and that's where Mai found her when she came to see her. Mai found out from Roland about what happened when they told Mokuba the truth and she nodded that she understood and then she went outside to find her friend.
Tea was sitting on the bench that Seto had proposed to her and she closed her eyes and prayed that everything that happen could all be turned around and that she and Seto were still married and that when their child was born they'd raise him together. She had had an ultra-sound the other day and found out that she was having a boy. She was lost in thought when Mai came walking up to her and then Tea heard her name being said and she looked up and there stood Mai.
Tears ran down her face as she said "Why is all this happening to my family?"
Mai sat down next to her and she put her arm around Tea and she said "Hon, sometimes life throws us things that we have a hard time dealing with and all we can do is try to go on with our lives. You are one of the strongest women that I know and with the support system that you have not only here but from your friends I know that you'll be able to deal with the loss of the father of your child and the man that you still love and always will."
Tea put her head on Mai's shoulder and they cried for the loss of loved ones and then the baby moved and Tea took Mai's hand and placed it on her belly and she felt the baby move too.
Then from behind them they heard "Tea I'm sorry for being a brat but I don't want to lose my brother. What am I suppose to do now?"
They turned around and there stood Mokuba who was crying and Mai stood up and Tea held out her arms and Mokie ran and he fell on the ground and laid his head in her lap as she said "Remember the great times you and Seto had and we'll be here for you and together we'll help each other get through this and I promise that Seto knows that we love him and that will help him when his time on this earth is through."
Mokuba looked up at Tea as tears ran down his face and he said "Where is Seto, he can't be alone now he need his family beside him as he goes through all this."
Tea looked up at Mai who shrugged as if to say "I don't know what to say."
Then Tea looked down at Mokuba and she said "Your right and I'm going to do some investigating and I'll find out where he is and we're all going to go be there to show him that we still love him even though he did some really stupid things."
Tea stood up and she said "You both go inside and tell Roland to meet me in Seto's Office, and tell him that we have some important things to do."
Tea opened Seto's Office door and went inside and sat at the desk where her husband had done business for Kaiba Corp. and she turned on the computer just as Roland walked in the door. "Please close the door, we have things to do in order to discover where Seto is because I'm going to make damn sure that my husband knows how much he is loved and wanted and all of us here at the Manor are coming with me."
Roland smiled at her and then he said "Alright the first place we need to go to is to talk to Dr. Chesterfield at Kaiba Corp. because he is Seto's private doctor. So then both Tea and Roland left the Manor and was on their way to talk to Dr. Chesterfield to find out where Seto was and Tea wasn't going to take no for an answer.
