Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Harsh Truths 2 ❯ Chapter Five ( Chapter 5 )

Disclaimer: I own nothing. Not even the plot. Well ok, I own some of the plot. But I got the idea for the plot from the amazing author Bakura's Shadow.

CHAPTER FIVE

I cried for thirty minutes. Chris never left. He just spoke softlyto me. When my tears finally subsided, he asked me what had happened but I couldn't tell him.At least, not until he told me what happened to him.

His birth father had been an alcoholic and abusive. So one day, his mom decided to take him and leave. But his father came home before they could leave. Chris hid under the bed as his dad came in. His parentsbegan to argue. Then a gunshot. Chris' mom fell; then another shot and hisdad fell. He came out to find both his parents dead. He was in an institute for 3 years.

I was shocked. He seemed so normal.

"So what happened to you?", Chris asked again. I looked up, then closed my eyes. "I was married on May 25th, 2000. On March 19th, 2001 I came home to find my husband dead by suicide. Next to him was his little brother, nearly dead. We, Joey and I, brought him to the hospital. He had slipped into a coma and was on life support. We couldn't let him suffer, so we let him go too." "Why was Joey there?" " My husband was the prominent Seto Kaiba. His brother was Joey's lover. I now run Kaiba Korp in Seto's place. He left it to me in the will."(A/N I know that this can't happen in real life, but it's happening in my story, so there. :-p)

"Wow!" he looked at me with a shocked look on his face. "Thatwould explain why you were so upset at what happened to Joey."

"Joey's all that I have left. If he left me too, I would probably be next." Then Grey came in. "Are you all finished playing psychologist?" he asked Chris. "I need to take her in. She needs to be with professionals, people who are trained to do this."

"I'm not going with you." I said. Grey looked at me, shocked. "But, Mrs. Kaiba, I know you've been feeling better since the talks. I see it in your face. You seem happier each day." "No I haven't. Every time I tell the story, the pain gets worse. I'm not going back." "But…" "The lady said `no'" Chris cut in. Then a smiled appeared on his face, like he just got an idea. "Let me treat her. The same schedule. Everything. For one month." "And if you fail? If you get no farther than me?" "She goes back to a professional and I admit I was wrong." "Deal. One month to see if she improves." Dr. Grey turned around and left. Chris sighed and ran a hand through his short, black hair. He turned around to face me and smiled.

"Well let's get started, shall we?"
