Untold Secrets…The Memories of Death
Part Two
Duo sat in a chair in the hotel room he and the boys were sharing. He stared at the coffee table listening to the conversation between Quatre and Jonathan. Apparently Quatre had heard of Jonathan from the business he did but had never met him. When the situation at the church became a little awkward, Quatre invited Jonathan to the hotel with them. So now here he was, talking to Quatre while Duo slouched in a chair and tried to burry the memories that were fast reveling themselves. "So tell me, how did you and Duo get separated?" Quatre asked Jonathan. "Well after our parents were killed we went to an orphanage and soon after we arrived a family adopted Michael and me. After a couple of months the family decided that they couldn't keep two children so they sent Michael back to the orphanage." Quatre listened quietly, his face showing sorrow. "Soon after that my new family moved and I never saw Michael again. I always dreamed that when I grew up I would find him. When I was 12 my adopted father died and less than a year later my Mom followed. My adopted parents were rich and they left me a large inheritance but I wasn't able to access it until I turned 15. As soon as I had the money I started looking for Michael and even though I saw the coverage of you Gundam pilots last year and the year before during both wars, I never noticed Michael. It wasn't until I saw him on the lawn of the church that I realized it was him. I found a few clues that led me to this colony so I came here and asked around. I was about to leave for earth but then I saw him." Quatre continued to talk with Jonathan while Duo sat nearby. Duo was glad that the rest of the boys weren't here to hear this. Heero was in the shower and Trowa had gone to the lobby to work out some things and order room service. Wufei had taken a nap and was, thankfully, still asleep. Duo narrowed his eyes until he could just almost see the complementary pen that was on the coffee table in front of him. For some reason he was mad at his brother. "Would you stop talking like that!" Duo scolded himself silently. "He's not your brother! A real brother would have found you sooner. A real brother would have sent you a letter or at least let you know that he was okay!" Jonathan interrupted Duo's thoughts. "Michael?" Jonathan asked. Duo narrowed his eyes when he heard the name 'Michael'. "I just want to say again how sorry I am about what happened. I did everything I could and now here you are…" Duo tuned out to whatever Jonathan was saying. "Yeah right, 'you did everything'." Duo thought missing the question Jonathan had just asked him. "Michael? Michael, are you listening?" Jonathan asked. Duo jumped up from his chair, "Don't call me that!" Duo said irritated.
"I'm sorry Michael bu-
"I said don't call me that! My name is Duo!"
"I'm sorry Michae- I mean Duo, I'm sorry, really I am! I didn't know-
"Just forget it!" Duo said as he turned around and walked out of the hotel room. Heero walked out of the bathroom drying his hair with a towel. "I heard yelling?" He asked looking at Quatre for an answer while he wiped his hands on his tank top. Duo left too quickly to hear what Quatre said but it didn't matter, all that mattered was getting out.
