26: 'The reverse side also has a reverse side'
The letter Zecht had given Wufei was carefully tucked away between two books in his bookcase. He hadn't shown it to anyone, nor discussed the contents. It was one of those weird things that just didn't feel right.
The contents played in his mind more often than he'd like to admit. What did it all really mean? He'd said it had not been his decision to promote Agent Noin over Sally and he could believe that. He had only been there a month or so when she was promoted and such thing were usually set into motion months in advance. But thinking back of that letter, Wufei wondered if Zechs had said all there was to say about it really. Marquise did not show up at card night anymore and Wufei did not exactly seek him out at work. They had not met since he'd received the letter and so Wufei had not had a chance to ask. Not that he really wanted to anyway.
And what about his comments on Heero? He'd said that his sister could be narrow-minded and if he wanted to make her listen he needed to just speak his mind. But his mind had not been very nice about it. He'd pretty much called them terrorists and disturbed teenagers. That was not something anyone would like to be called.
All in all he really did not know what to think of the letter. Sometimes it made him see the fellow preventer in a different light, but at other times the words just seemed to make him more mad. It was really a good thing he had kept the letter to himself. If he did not know what to think of it he doubted Duo or Sally would have a better understanding.
Was that really it? Did he really not tell Duo or Sally about it because he did not think it prudent? Or was it because the contents made him look prejudiced and narrow-minded? Did he choose not to discuss it because he was afraid of loosing face in front of his two best friends? Was he really such a prideful person?
