Five years have past, and nothing has changed. The friends of the Yuy family stopped in periodically to check up on Releana and the children. They would talk to her about different current events going on in the world, making sure they never brought up the subject of Heero. If they did, Releana wouldn't stop talking about how wonderful he was, and what they would do once he returned.
*We jump to a conversation of Releana's friends at Duo and Hilde's mansion *
"She can't go on like this. She is acting as if he is just away on a short business trip or something. She has to snap out of this." Said a concerned Hilde.
" I know. We have to talk to her, but what in the world are we supposed to say?" Said Quatra.
"Well, I don't know, but Duo will think of something."
"What! What are you thinking Hilde?"
"Duo, come on. You know you are the only one who can do it. You are very good with words."
"Since when?" asked a very confused Trowa.
"Well, I don't know. But he's gonna do it, right?" Hilde shot a glance at Duo.
"But, oh I guess. But in the future, let me volunteer for my own missions."
"Duo, this isn't a mission. It's just a simple talk to Releana."
"A simple talk to Releana? Hilde, that is more dangerous that half of my missions!" The group laughed a bit, but then remembered the subject of their conversation. They couldn't help but go into a state of depression when thinking about Releana and her longing for Heero.
Duo walked out of the room while the others stayed behind to chat. He walked into the foyer of his mansion. What was he going to say? And the group had planned for him to speak to her that evening.
*What am I supposed to do? Man! That Hilde has to start to talk to me before she puts me up for things. She's the one I need to talk to, not Releana!*
Releana had planned a birthday dinner for Fiona and Heero that evening. The doorbell rang, and a plump little girl ran to answer the door.
"Hi!" she said cheerfully.
"There's the birthday girl! Come give your Uncle Quatra a hug!"
The group came in and said their hellos.
Wufei said grimly, "Why do you have a child's birthday party with adults? The little people should have their friends over instead of us. Plus I have better things to do!"
"Oh be quiet! It's only for a few hours, and we are the only family for these children. You could use a nice evening. So just stop complaining and grow up." Said a discussed Trowa.
The dinner went well, and the time came where Duo was brave enough to pull aside Releana.
"Ok, Duo. What did you want to talk about?"
"You, Releana, I want to talk about you. And I want to talk about Heero."
"What? Why? I mean, I'm fine. And Heero is fine. What is there to talk about?"
"No. No, you're not fine. You have to move on. You have to give it up."
"Give what up?"
" Heero."
"Huh? But why should I give him up? He's coming back to m..."
"Oh Releana, come on. He has been gone for 5 years. Do you honestly think he is gonna come back?"
"Of course I do! Why shouldn't I? I mean, there is no reason he shouldn't return. He has always returned from his missions! Even, even when he self-destructed his Gundam, with him on it, he survived. He is going to come back to me!"
"Releana, you don't know how hard this is for me. But, we are all concerned about you, and the kids. They need a father."
"And they have one! They have a great father! They know all about him. I have made sure of that!"
"Releana, calm down. I know you miss him, but you have to give him up. I know you love him, and he loves you, but what if he never comes back? What are you going to do?"
"I don't have to worry about that because he's coming back to me soon. I have been waiting 5 years, and I will wait 5 more if I have to! I won't give up on Heero. I know him, and if he has a family here, here is where he will return. He's just on a mission. I wouldn't suppose that you know anything about his mission, do you?"
"Releana, we aren't allowed to tell anyone about our missions. We have been taught that since we were born."
"Can't you people ever go against what you were taught? I mean, why is that your life law?"
"Releana, since the day we were born we have been taught everything we know. It's like breathing. If you go against what you were taught about breathing, like doing it, you would kind of die. If we went against what we were taught about our missions, we could die."
"But, it just doesn't make since. What type of person teaches a boy to leave his family if some dumb mission comes up?"
"Well, we have saved the world several times with our "dumb" missions. If we hadn't gone on them, they would have had no one else to do them."
"But why did Heero have to be the one to go on this one? Why could you or, or the other Gundam pilots?"
"Because Heero is the best out of us, I guess. He has no fear and that helps with his missions. He doesn't hesitate against danger."
"Well, I don't care how he finishes his mission, but I know he will. And I know he is coming back. There is nothing you can do or say to change my..." She caught herself, remembering those words coming out of Heero's mouth the day he announced he was leaving. A tear came to her eye. If only there was something that she said or did to make him stay. She wouldn't have had to go through these 5 lonely years raising two kids. She wanted Heero to come back more than anything, but she never told anyone that. She never told anyone of the anger built up inside of her about him leaving. She became overwhelmed as these thoughts ran through her mind. She ran out of the room, from a puzzled Duo, to her bedroom. The rest saw her running through and Duo coming out of the room scratching the back of his head.
"What did you do?"
"Nothing, I mean, I was talking to her, then she said something, and in mid sentence, she stopped and ran out."
"I think it's time for us to go," said a happy Wufei, now that the night was over.
"I agree." Said Hilde. The group left after Hilde put the kids to bed. They all walked out, just as concerned as they had come in. Duo hadn't really accomplished anything in the line of convincing Releana to let go of Heero.
Ok, I know chapter 2 is very short, but it will continue soon, I promise. I hope you enjoyed it. Thanks for reading, and please review!!!
