Story 123: Can You Play With Me?

Seto: 10

Mokuba: 4

At the mansion, Mokuba was playing with some toy cars in a room. There was a fireplace going. Seto was sitting on a soft cream sofa with a laptop on his lap. Mokuba was making his cars crash together or crash into Seto. Seto took no notice, he kept typing on his laptop. Mokuba stopped playing with his cars. He was getting bored playing by himself. He walks over to Seto and sits on the sofa next to him. Mokuba stares at the laptop Seto was on. There were lots of words on the screen that Mokuba couldn't read. He sighs and gets off of the sofa. He stands in front of Seto.

"Can you play with me, Seto?" Mokuba asked sweetly.

Seto didn't answer.

Mokuba sighs again and left the room. He came back after a few minutes with a bag of toys. He stands in front of Seto again.

"Seto, can we play?" Mokuba asks again.

Seto didn't reply. He was concentrating hard on his work that he didn't hear Mokuba.

"Please, Seto?" Mokuba begged.

Seto stops typing on his computer and looks at Mokuba. "I'm busy," he simply said.

"But I'm bored!" Mokuba whined.

"Go play with father," Seto said.

"But father doesn't like playing," Mokuba says.

Seto starts typing on his laptop again. "You'll just have to wait until tomorrow then, Mokuba,"

Fresh tears filled Mokuba's eyes. He hung his head low and slowly walked out of the room. Seto stops typing on his laptop. He realized he had made Mokuba sad. He closes his laptop and sets it down next to him on the couch. Then he hops off of the couch and rushes out of the room. He spots Mokuba walking down the hall. Seto ran over to him.

"Mokuba, wait, I'll play with you," Seto said.

Mokuba looked up his eyes shining happily. "Yay!" he wraps his small arms around his brother's waist into a tight hug. Seto smiles and returns the hug.
