Chapter 3
Tuesday was a very long and excruciating day for Yami. It started with the math test. Later, classes for the whole day and last but not least: cleaning day at the game shop. The fact Kaiba wasn’t there only made it worse. Why was he gone? He hardly missed classes, specially tests. He was curious, but hated to admit it. When did he lose this fight to himself?
But now it was finally Wednesday! He never thought he would be this excited to go to the library and study. He was waiting for Kaiba in front of the library, holding a couple of books in his hands.
“Hello, Yami-kun” said the brunet leaving a classroom a bit distant from the library door.
“Hello, Kaiba-kun… what were you doing in this classroom? We don’t have classes there.” The pharaoh asked thoughtlessly and instantly regretting it.
“Not that is your business…” he said narrowing his eyes a little “…But I missed yesterday’s test and was taking it now during lunch time”
“Sorry, I didn’t men to intrude”
“Nevermind, Yami-kun. Let’s just get to work, ok?”
They entered the library and went straight to the chemistry section. Both wondering where to start with, staring silently at the organized bookshelf.
“So we have to talk about polyurethane” Yami said
“Yes”
“That’s a polymer right?”
“Your point being?” Kaiba said in a grumpy way
“Maybe we could study a bit of polymers in a general way first and then read about polyurethane. We can make an introduction in the project talking about polymers, we’re the only group talking about them.”
Kaiba winded his eyes a little. All this sounded like a great idea. That’s a surprise, since he knew Yami wasn’t exactly a chemistry genius.
“So?” Yami asked a bit anxiously.
“Yeah, I mean… Sounds like a good idea. We should get the Callister book and read about polymers”
“Callister?”
“Yeah, it’s a book about Material Science and Engineering”
“How come you know this book? Isn’t it advanced level… for college students?” Yami asked genuinely curious.
“Oh, when I was designing the duel portable platforms I had to have an idea of which material I should use to build them. This one might be for college students but it very recommended for beginners”
Yami was quite impressed. Kaiba was way ahead in everything. No wonder he could be a CEO at such a young age. Kaiba handled Yami a copy of the book and they sat in one of the tables available in the library.
The afternoon was oddly pleasant for both. They never imagined working together could be so productive and even fun. They would read the text book, take notes and ask each other questions when they had doubts. Yami having more of them and being shy when asking. When he was stuck in a particular paragraph for ten minutes Kaiba decided to do something about it.
“Yami-kun, if you don’t understand something from the book you can ask me. I won’t make fun of you! You come from a time when people would write in papyrus, it’s more than OK to have doubts.”
Yami blushed furiously, he was so grateful someone understood that without him saying it, but also embarrassed of asking questions all the time… He definitely wasn’t used to be the one in need for help. But something else was in the air. And it was Kaiba’s reaction to Yami’s blushing. The CEO tried to conceal it, but he couldn’t deny how adorable the pharaoh looked when embarrassed. That made him feel a strange feeling, a mixture of happiness, a warmness in the heart and tingles in the tip of his fingers. What was going on all of the sudden?
“Thank you for being so understanding, usually people don’t have patience with my learning, especially in physics and chemistry… Can you explain to me why polymers have more than one type of molecular mass, please?” Yami said, breaking the tension in the air.
“No need to thank me, Yami. I know what is like to be exposed to a lot of new things and have to do your best to assimilate it all at once”
Yami thought he was talking to a different person now, another Kaiba he never had the chance to meet before. He sounded so… human. Could he be talking about his childhood? Yami wanted to ask but decided to leave it for another moment.
“So…” Kaiba continued “A polymer can be very long and have many ramifications with different properties along its structure, right? So, you need to use a different molecular mass to analyze every aspect of it. It’s the only way to study it in a complete way, since every ramification can have a different degree of polymerization. Do you get it?” He asked finally.
“Yes! Thanks!” Yami answered with a smile.
“Yami, the library is about to close, I think we should get going. We did a lot today anyway. What do you think?”
“Yeah, I’m tired. We can continue some other time.” He said stretching in the chair. “Can we rent these books? I wanted to give it a read at home later.”
“Unfortunately, they are only for the teachers”
“Well, we can always come back”
“Sure”
They were about to leave when they heard a loud thunder outside. By the time they were outside in a covered area in the entrance of the school, a thick rain started to fall. They looked at each other like they would find a solution in the other’s face.
“Humm, wait here” Kaiba said right before entering the school again. Soon he came back with a large black umbrella. “We can share it until the bus stop. Usually I would have my driver to pick me up, but Mokuba has an appointment and he’s with him”
Sharing an umbrella with Kaiba? A “way better than expected” way to finish this afternoon.
