Chapter Eleven

Because Seto's psyche was so badly shattered because of his nervous breakdown, Dr. Fuller knew that it would take a long time before he could reach the real Seto and help bring him back to reality so that he could finally start on his road to recovery. As Dr. Fuller started talking to Seto he would reach a point where there was resistance and then one of the barriers that Seto set up inside his mind would manifest itself into a different personality that would emerge to help protect Seto against any trauma that the questions would create.

Dr. Fuller also knew that he just wasn't trying to help Seto come back so that he could be reunited with his wife and family, but he had to also get Seto to deal with his feeling for this Joseph Wheeler and until Seto could figure out what his feelings for this other person was Seto wouldn't ever be completely healed and he could slip and have another breakdown and this time it could be so bad that he would never come back to reality and he would be lost to his family forever.

As Seto struggled to come to terms with his mental state, Heather knew that she has to be honest with their children just in case that Seto might never leave the mental ward. She called Mokuba and asked him "Will you come over for dinner tonight, we have to talk about what will happen to the kids and me if Seto doesn't get better and I could really use your help."

Mokuba told her "that he'd be over after he got done at Kaiba Corp." Mokuba didn't relish talking about his brother never getting better, but he also knew that it had to be done. He arrived at the Manor and when he went inside he was met by the kids and they hugged him and it brought tears to his eyes as he realized how difficult this was going to be for Heather.

During one of the sessions that Dr. Fuller had with Seto, Seto blinked his eyes and he asked "What am I doing here and not at home?"

Dr. Fuller then asked him "What is the last thing that you do remember?"

Seto then looked at the doctor and he said "I was trying to make Joey understand that we belonged together and that I would do what ever it would take to get him back."

Then Seto shook his head and he said "Why would I want Joey back when I'm married to Heather and we have two children together? What is happening to me?"

Dr. Fuller then told him "You've suffered a breakdown and until we can find out what caused it, you're going to be here at the hospital."

Seto then stood up and walked to the window and as he turned around he had a different look about him and then the little boys voice said "Hello, do I know you?"

Dr. Fuller then said "Yes, we know each other and I was wondering if I could talk to Seto again?"

The little boy shook his head and he said "Seto doesn't want to talk to you right now. What's your name? My name is Johnny."

Dr. Fuller knew that it was useless to try to talk to Seto anymore today so he said "Alright, I'm going to leave for now, but maybe when I come back tomorrow I can talk to Seto." Then he walked over to the door and knocked and the Orderly opened the door.

At the Manor over dinner the kids asked their mommy "Will daddy be home for Christmas?" Heather closed her eyes and she said "Let's talk about this after dinner; Helga has her famous Peach Cobbler for dessert." That got a cheer from the kids and they ate the rest of their dinner in peace. After dinner, Heather asked if everyone could come into the Living Room that she needed to talk to them about something."

When the kids finally got to the Living Room, Heather asked Mokuba to close the door and then she sat down next to her children and she said "Kids, when I told you that you're daddy was away on business, well I told you a little fib. Your daddy is in the hospital but he isn't hurt his mind is a little mixed up and until it cam get better he'll be there."

James and Julie looked at their mommy and then James said "How did daddy's mind get mixed up?"

Heather said "Well sometimes when a grownup has a tragedy happen in their lives it can cause their minds to get all mixed up and they need to talk to a different kind of doctor and see if that doctor can help them. That's what your daddy has to do."

Julie the asked her mommy "Can we see daddy?"

Heather smiled at her daughter and son and softly said "Not right now, but when he can have visitors then I'll take you to see him."

James looked at his Uncle Mokuba and he said "Did you know about daddy?"

Mokuba smiled at his Nephew and he said "Yes, and I can't even see him till he is better."

Julie then said "Mommy, can we pray for daddy and will God hear us and help our daddy get better?"

This brought tears to both Heather and Mokuba's eyes and she said "Yes baby girl we can pray for daddy and I know that God will hear you and that he'll help daddy get better."

Julie and James got down on their knees as did Mokuba and Heather and they folded their little hands and James said "Dear God, it's James and Julie Kaiba here and we want to ask you to please make our daddy better so that he can come home and be with us and mommy again. Please help our daddy because we love him with all our hearts and he loves us to. Amen."

Tears were flowing down Heather and Mokuba's face as they said "Amen." The James and Julie held hands and went to their mommy and as she held them in her loving arms they began to cry for their daddy. Mokuba put his arm around them and said his own prayer that his brother would get better and come home to his family.
