contractual bond 🔏

Chapter 5

The next week or two, Airi had completely submerged herself in her work. Graduation was around the corner and she was almost done with the research paper. She and Kaiba had been spending most of their time together. They were being sexually active and Airi was getting more information for her report.

Time flew by quickly and two months had passed by. Airi had finished her report and it was time for graduation. She was still under the contract that Kaiba had made. They were not caught my social media so far and it was a great sign that maybe this was getting better than she thought.

Kaiba was beginning to change a bit and she noticed that too. He would even go far as to inviting her over to dinner and she would stay the night sometimes. She felt like they were a couple and all thoughts of him betraying her were pushed back.

There were times she came over and they had dinner and just fell asleep. Things were changing drastically, and it felt weird. The following week, Airi sat in class. She was very bored and this was the last class before graduation. The professor came in and started talking about the reports and congratulated everyone for passing with flying colors.

She wasn't paying attention until the professor called out her name. "Airi, may I talk to you please?"

"Oh, yes professor!" She gathered her things and walked down to talk to the professor. Everyone around her were suddenly surprised as to why she was up down there.

"Might I say, your report was absolutely brilliant! I haven't seen anyone in all my life as a professor write something as great as yours! You had so much information! Mind telling me how you were able to get so much information about Seto Kaiba?"

At the mention of his name, the whole class was listening now. The professor was very loud the entire time he said it and now the whole class wants to know too.

Shit, now what do I do? I can't let anyone know I went to school with him. Come on brain, think!

"Oh, my brother went to high school with him so I asked him if he could do some research for me." She scratched her head and nervously laughed.

The class gasped and suddenly there were many females surrounding her. "OMG, your brother is Ryujji Otogi right? He went to school with Seto Kaiba? You have to have his phone number!" Airi was suddenly being bombarded with questions and she panicked.

"I'm sorry, I can't give out any information!" She quickly rushed out the classroom and ran farther away from it. Once she left the building, she was out of breath. "Damn, crazy fan-girls."

She was finally done with the semester and wanted to go visit her friends. Once she got in her car, she got a call from her brother. "Hey big bro, what's up?"

"Hey, I'm going to be out of town for a conference for the next couple days and wanted to let you know."

"Okay, is this because of  dungeon dice monsters opening up again?"

"Yes, there's going to be businessmen from all over the world who are starting up businesses and stuff; so I just wanted to give you a heads up. Are you going to be okay alone?"
