He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why"

"AND HE'S NOT GOING TO DO anything creepy, is he?" Mai asked Anzu for the fifth time.
Anzu shook her head, as she flipped the pages of a random magazine at the waiting room at the clinic. She, and Shizuka, had decided to take Mai to the gynecologist to make sure the baby was well and healthy. They were waiting for the nurses to call Mai's name.
"I don't know," Anzu admitted.
Shizuka, however shook her head, "I still can't believe you didn't tell me you were pregnant," she glanced at Mai and gave her the irresistible puppy eyes, "Why? Why didn't you tell me?"
Mai swallowed nervously, she can't resist Shizuka's eyes, "I was going to hon, believe me. But…bu ti didn't want you to worry…"
Shizuka raised an eyebrow, "Worry?" she repeated puzzled, "On the contrary, I'm happy for you! I hope to be a great aunt!" Mai couldn't help but to give Shizuka a warm smile, she recalled on what Yugi had said a few days ago about how everyone will pitch in and become the baby's family.
Shizuka began to tell Mai her plans for the child, "Since I know you're not that good at knitting," she began thoughtfully, "I can make some pillows, toys, blankets and some clothes for the baby! It's going to look so cute!"
Anzu, who was overhearing Shizuka, couldn't help but to smile at her. Shizuka, who despite knows about Mai's situation about her fatherless child, doesn't see the problem at all. In fact, Shizuka never does. Mai and Anzu were both grateful that Shizuka came along; she can make people feel like a kid again, and have no worries.
Mai began to wonder, why in the world didn't she tell her in the first place?
"Kujaku?" suddenly asked a nurse, "Miss Mai Kujaku?"
Mai nodded and got up from her seat, "It's going to be ok," Anzu reassured her.
"You can do it!" Shizuka whispered.
LATERS…
As soon as Mai entered the room for her examination, the first the she exclaimed was, "What the HELL?!"
The doctor, however, could only smile and said calmly, "I could say the same thing to you, Mai."
Mai was choking on air now; she had never thought she could live to see the day when she could see him. Yet her he was in the flesh, ready to examine her.
But instead of asking her long lost friend, 'how are you?' or 'where have you been?' the first thing that blurted out of Mai's lips were, "You look at people's vaginas now?"
The doctor laughed, "Yeah…" he laughed weakly, "I guess I do…"
"B-But!" Mai stuttered, not understanding how anything that's happening right now is possible, "Why did you gynecologist, Varon?"
"Ah, unfortunately, it's Dr. Varon to you," he said, he took out his clipboard and a pen, looking at Mai's records, "I was raised in a Catholic orphanage, remember? So naturally, there were times I had to help the nuns deliver some lil' ankle biters when they were short of staff. " he explained.
"So..." Varon began slowly as he began to click his pen, "You uh...got knocked up?" Varon's jaw became stiff as he said it.
Despite Varon's reasonable explanation, Mai still could comprehend what Varon was saying, "So you look at vaginas?" she repeated.
Varon nodded and rolled his eyes, "Yes, Mai." He said bluntly, in defeat, "I look at vaginas."
For some reason, this response calmed Mai down a bit, but now she was self-conscious, "And…" she began slowly, "You're going to look in-in there are you?" she said.
Varon shook his head, "No, we don't have too," he replied, then he added, with a smirk on his face, "Unless you want to,"
Mai glared at him.
"We won't," Varon replied now serious, "I'm just here for a prenatal check-up."
Mai fidgeted, Varon sighed, "If you're not comfortable with me, we can always go and get you another doctor," he said.
As much as Mai wanted, she didn't want to be rude. Then again, she and Varon went through a lot together so probably…Varon looking at her vagina shouldn't be a problem. Should it?
Yes, yes it would. There was no doubt about it.
LATERS…
"VARON?!" Anzu repeated as they all existed the hospital together,
Mai nodded, "Yeah, Varon was my doctor."
"Was?" Shizuka asked. Mai nodded, "Yeah, Varon and I were close and all, but not close enough where Varon can see my womanhood,"
Anzu shook her head, "Wow, Mai…" Anzu was speechless, "Just…wow."
Anzu couldn't believe Mai's luck. To have an old friend to be your own doctor? Anzu couldn't possibly imagine how that must have felt. She wondered if she herself would have the courage to ask Jonouchi, Honda or Yugi to look at her womanhood.
Yugi…Anzu thought. She hasn't spoken to him in a while…Yugi was probably mad at her for not returning his calls. Anzu bit her lip.
MEANWHILES…
Jonouchi punched the wall. He knew Mai was having her first visit to the doctor, he hoped everything was alright.
He wished he could have gone, but the girls insisted that Jonouchi remained at home.
"Tsuya," his sister told him before she left, "you have to understand, and Mai's a bit sensitive about herself right now,"
Jonouchi nodded, and reluctantly let the girls go.
Jonouchi's secret; he is in love with Mai. For the past few years after the other Yugi had left, he and Mai started to hang around each other much more often than they used to. They had gotten close, so close to the point that they each know each other's dark secrets. Things that not even Jonouchi have confessed to Yugi.
Jonouchi wants so desperately the child to be his….because that way…he could have Mai close and she would only belong to him. Only to him.
But sadly, Mai doesn't seem to feel the same way.
Jonouchi had once asked her, on a whim, if she was interested in someone.
"No," Mai had confessed immediately. Jonouchi remembered being stunned by her answer.
"R-Really?" he pressed weakly, "No one? Ya sure?"
Mai took another moment to think and she said, "Out of all the guys I've met in my life, you're probably the cutest."
What the hell did THAT mean?
Did it mean he had a chance? Or…or that she only sees him as a friend? A cute friend? Or was she…just being nice?
Mai…Mai…what the hell Mai?
Jonouchi cursed and decided to go for a stroll, to let all his anger calm down.
"I am everything you want
I am everything you need

But I meas nothing to you
And you don't know why
And I don't know why
Why
I don't know"
