Chapter5: You Might Be
SETO KAIBA GLANCED at his clock for the fifth time today. His azure eyes gazed at his office door.
He twirled the pen between his fingers, then, he returned to look at his e-mails.
MEANWHILES…
Mai sat at her favorite spot at the food court. She chuckled darkly as she noticed that her favorite table just happened to be right in front of a baby clothing store, "How ironic," she muttered darkly.
Mai was waiting for Jonouchi to come by, just like they agreed yesterday. Mai is planning to tell him everything, yet at the same time, Mai didn't want her friend to know. She didn't want her friend, her closest friend, who had helped her get out of the crappiest situations; find out that he could be the father of her unborn child.
What if he really was the father? What would he do? What would she do? Would this….ruin their friendship? She hoped that Jonouchi wouldn't leave her, but instead support her and tell her that everything's ok.
Like he's always done.
Mai blinked her tears away. How could she have been so careless? How could she have let this happened to her? Mai hopes that Jonouchi isn't the father.
Please, Mai prayed in her head, don't be the father Jo….please don't…
Mai quickly wiped her tears away as she saw Jonouchi enter the food court, as soon as he spotted her, he gave her his famous goofy grin.
Mai hated herself; she hated how soon that smile might not last forever.
"Hey Mai!" Jonouchi cheerfully greeted as he was taking a seat across from Mai.
"Hey," Mai muttered. Jonouchi eyed at the different restaurants across from them, "Have ya-have ya eaten anythin'?" he asked.
Mai shook her head, "No, but you can go get something if you want," in truth, Mai felt really full, despite the fact that she threw up her breakfast this morning.
Jonouchi shook his head, "I betta not," He said, "Shizu gets kinda jealous when I eat somthin' not made by her…"
Mai laughed, "Seriously, it's like she's your high school girlfriend!"
Jonouchi laughed, "But I ain't sayin' she's a bad cook! She'll make her future husband proud!"
Mai pretended to frown, "That is, if you let her out of the house…"
They both laughed, and then their laughter slowly faded away. There was a short pause, "So what'cha call me for?" he asked.
Mai sighed. Where does one begin?
MEANWHILES…
Shizuka came inside Kaiba's office, with several folders in her arms, "Mr. Kaiba, the papers are ready and need your signatures…"
Kaiba nodded and mentioned for the girl to approach his desk.
Shizuka handed the folders to Kaiba, who took them and glanced at each of them. Shizuka stood for a moment, and waited in case he needed anything else.
Kaiba noticed his secretary standing there, "Well?" he grunted. Shizuka tried to suppress a laugh, but she only managed to giggle, "You haven't dismissed me, Sir," she explained.
Kaiba waved his hand dismissively, Shizuka smiled, and bowed. She left the room.
As soon as she left, Kaiba glanced at his clock again.
MEANWHILE…
Mai forced her eyes to focus on the table. She didn't want to see Jonouchi's reaction as he tried to process what she just confessed.
She heard him clear his throat, "So," he began simply, "Ya think I may be da father?"
Mai slowly looked up at him, did she really have to tell him the whole truth? There was no way around it.
"You…" Mai strummed her fingers softly on the table, "You might be."
Jonouchi raised an eyebrow, "What do ya mean I might be?"
Mai sighed and closed her eyes, "To be honest…." She slowly opened her violet eyes, "I don't know who he is."
Jonouchi ran his hand through his blond hair, what he does when he is trying to sort things out, "Well, who else could it have been?"
Mai quickly glanced at the baby clothing store across from her, her mind playing fragments of memories that happened that night, "You won't believe me if I tell you…"
Jonouchi scoffed, "Come on, Mai dis is serious…tell me…"
"Well, there's you," Mai began, "There's Yugi…Honda…"
Jonouchi raised an eyebrow, "Wait a sec…HONDA?!" he exclaimed. Mai nodded and continued, "Ryuji…Bakura…." She took a deep breath, "And…"
"And?" Jonouchi asked, still trying to make sense of all this.
MEANWHILE…
Kaiba placed the last document back in its folder, as he straightened his desk and he saw Shizuka quietly come into his office.
He gave the folders to his secretary, who smiled and bowed and began to make her way to the door when Kaiba called back, "Shizuka…"
Shizuka stopped in her tracks and turned around, "Yes, Mr. Kaiba?" she asked politely.
MEANWHILE…
"An' who?" Jonouchi demanded, not wanting to be in suspense any longer, "Tell me, Mai…who else?"
Mai hesitated, "Well, it's a long stretch…but…it's possible…that Kaiba may be the father as well."
"K-KAIBA?!" Jonouchi exclaimed, he blinked several times in shock, "B-But how?!"
MEANWHILE…
"Has anyone called for me, lately?" Kaiba asked. Shizuka looked thoughtfully at the ceiling and shook her head, "No, sir," she replied, "No one has,"
Kaiba nodded, his mind seemed to be in deep thought, "That's fine," his eyes went to the files in her hands, "Fax those files as soon as possible. I want those documents in their hands by this afternoon,"
Shizuka nodded, "Yes, sir."
And she left.
What da flip? KAIBA might be the father as well? Does Kaiba seem to know? Will he ever confess? jesuscrist! what in the world happened last night? Lol. Anyways, read n' review!
