The Third Eye - Part 1

The Third Eye - Part 1

The forehead was pressed down into the keyboard, and it was clearly that marks would be left, for a courple of days. But the owner took no notice of that, he was far into the rabbit hole, and it seemed that he would stay there for a few more hours. The room's wall was painted in blue, from the computer screen, or they would have been if they hadn't been hidden away by the many shelves, and stacks of papir. The door to the corridor was closed of and no light shined through the cracks or the keyhole. No sound except the humming from the computer and the breathing of the boy, was heard. It was clearly night, and the boy was the only one left in the building.

Hours passed by and everything was silence except the few times the boy would move a little, to see if it helped at the uncomfortable way he slept. When a new sound briefly joined the others, The phone. The boy softly cursed in his sleep before picking up the phone for a instant, only to put it down again the second after. An awaken person would had catch the word, "Rek" but since the boy was sleeping he had no idea who it had been, and couldn't care less.

-Brriiing!

The boy cursed again, begin to catch onto reality, he rubbed with one hand on his eyes and picked up the phone with the other hand, putting it by his ear, "Reki!". The second the word was hear the boy awoke fully, "Sir!"

"-Why the hell are you still at work!" The voice shriek from the other end of the phone, making the poor boy close his eyes, from the pain his ears was going through.

"Uhm, sleeping sir..." muttered the boy, playing with the wire of the phone.

Some kind of thunk was heard, followed by a heavy sigh. Reki had no problem imaginaring the scene before him. A man in the thirties, hammering his head into his nightstand. Reki couldn't help chuckling. "Go home, Reki..."

"But sir, the boss always says we should treat the work has our home..." Reki couldn't help smiling, looking down to his hands that still was playing with the wire.

"Go home, Reki..." There was another thunk in sign of the phone had been put down in the other end. And he couldn't help sighing. He gentle put his head back at the keyboard. Why?

He closed his eyes again, and breath out, Why do you care?

He stood up and walk to the only window in the room, it was hidden behind a lot of stuffs, to keep the light from reflecting in the screens. He opened it and breath out again, taking in fresh air. The room stank of smoke and coffee.

He hated the smell, and yet he didn't. It was an relaxing smell, that sometimes made him wonder why he didn't smoke himself, everybody else always said it help with the nerves. He sighed again and moved away from the window. To look at his screen which now was reflecting the moon. He couldn't help smiling.

"I better leave," he muttered to himself, "or Shirow will execute me tomorrow..."

He slowly began to gather his stuff, when he was about the leave the room, the phone called again. Reki sighed and went to get it, "Assitant Fujio, Reki" he said emotionless.

"Go home..." The same voice has before groaned.

"I'm on my way, I would have left if you hadn't called."

A sigh, and a thunk.

Reki left.

The ride with the bus home, was in silence. Nobody said a word in the bus. Even though many stared. It wasn't often you saw a fifteen year young boy sit in a bus, especially not in the middel of night, with school probably waiting in a few hours.

An old lady sat down next to him, he knew what would come now, it happened almost everytime he left his officer. Somebody would treat him like a normal little kid. Who probably had run away.

"My, my, what do a young lad like you do out in the middel of the night?"

"Returning to home, after a day of work..." He answered, keeping out emotions has always.

"Shouldn't you be in your bed by now? It's schoolday tomorrow and everything."

"First of I've actually been sleeping for the last," he looked at his watch, "five hours, until my boss awoke me. Secondly I don't go to school anymore, i graduated about two years ago."

He could feel everybodies eyes at him...

"Did he say graduated?"

"He looks like a thirteen years old boy.."

"He most be joking.."

He rolled his eyes, and looked out the window ignoring rest of the comments that came from the people. Why had he even bothered telling the woman? It wasn't like it was her business, what other people did, anyway.

Outside the window was everything pit black, and it was a wonder that he could skim his destination in the darkness, a little lit in the darkness showed the little house of the stop of the bus. He quickly got up from his seat, and stopped by the door. Has the bus stop, he was out of it before the second door ever opened, and he was out of view, even before the bus had closed them again.

---

The apartment he lived in was nothing special. A small one with a living room, bedroom, kitchen, and of course a bathroom. Has he entered the apartment he kicked off his shoes, walking on his socks into the living room where he took off his pullover and throw it at the floor, he quickly went to the kitchen only to see the white furryball sitting next to it's foodbowl.

"Hiya Hime" Reki said and sat down by the white furryball, "missed me?"

The furryball hurried over to him and began petting itself up against him, he couldn't help chuckling, "I guess so..." He stood up and went to the fridge, and took out a can of catfood. He filled the bowl with the food and throw out the empty can of catfood.

Has he entered the bedroom, he went to the alarm clock and set it for 9 o'clock. He went into the small bathroom to get his toothbrush only to find it missing, and a new toothbrush laying near the place the old one had laid. Setsuki...

Setsuki was the owner of the apartment, he and her had been good friends ever since he moved to the apartment, two years ago. He never asked her for helping him out with anything. Because it wasn't needed, she was always two steps ahead, knowing what he needed, and what he was missing. He couldn't help smiling.

Picking up the new toothbrush filling it with toothpaste.

-Nya..

Reki looked down at the small furryball which was now petting itself up against his legs. He finished brushing his teeth and picked her up, taking her with him to bed. Has he laid down in the small bed, he let go of the white furryball, who laid it self up against him, purring like tomorrow never would be. He pet her a single time before sleep took over him.
