~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~When You Think Something's Right~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Two blocks face each other.
"What have you got to say for yourself?" boomed one block.
"Nothing."
"You are getting like a regular Gendo."
"I am not him, I will never be."
"Do you know of the latest news on Tokyo-3?"
"Nothing survived."
"Liar! I could have you assasinated right now."
"I am telling the truth."
"You better pick your words carefully in front of the rest of SEELE." A block vanished.
"I will, don't worry," the voice sniggered. "And my plan shall proceed smoothly."
~o~
"Are they always like this?" Toji looked, goggle-eyed at Shinji and Asuka spitting at each other.
"Yes," replied Rei as she ate her own breakfast silently.
"That's mine!" yelled Shinji.
"Who said that it was yours!" Asuka screamed at him. "It's mine!"
"It doesn't have your name on it!"
"It doesn't have YOURS!"
"What are they fighting over?" Toji asked Rei, who had finished her noodles and started to go into the kitchen.
"A fishball."
"Hey guys," Toji sweat-dropped. "It's just a fishball."
"Shut up!" Shinji and Asuka screamed at him, and continued quarrelling.
"What about the other time you swiped my socks?!" Shinji yelled at Asuka.
"Baka! Why would I want to take your smelly socks!!" Asuka yelled back.
"What! Are you insulting ME? I do not have smelly feet! You do!!"
"No I don't!"
"Liar! You took my socks AND you have smelly feet. And you tried to seduce me when Misato was out one night."
"What the!!!" Asuka grew fangs. "How dare you accuse me of being amoral! You're the one who tried to kiss me when I was asleep."
"You puckered up first!"
"I did NOT!"
Toji picked up his bowl of noodles and decided to eat in the kitchen. But he could still hear them screaming at each other. "They'll never change," Toji sighed.
"Yes, they won't," Rei smiled to herself. A small smile on her lips.
"Hey, Rei," Toji finished his bowl of noodles and stood beside her as she washed the dirty dishes. "Do you look forward to the new school the government is sending us to?"
"Sure, I guess."
"Is it difficult, trying to take charge of this...household?"
Rei shrugged.
"I hate you!"
"Well, so do I!"
"I think they have finished their quarrelling," Rei commented.
SLAM! SLAM! went the individual doors.
"That's the end of it," Toji nodded to himself.
"Yes," Rei agreed.
~o~
"We have four new students here. As you all know who they are, and what are their names, I will not reintroduce them. If you want to know more, ask the persons themselves," said the teacher and he gestured for Shinji, Asuka, Rei and Toji to find empty seats.
The rest of the students looked down onto their tables.
"Why isn't everyone looking at us?" Asuka grabbed Shinji's hand and hissed into his ear. Shinji turned red and tried to pull away from Asuka.
"What are you doing?" Toji questioned the both of them.
"Nothing," Shinji replied. "It's Asuka."
Asuka dropped Shinji's hand and sniffed haughtily. She quickly picked a seat and totally ignored Shinji.
Shinji, on his part, picked the seat furthest away from Asuka. Rei sat by the window behind Shiji, while Toji sat roughly between Asuka and Shinji.
"Now, we shall start our lessons," the teacher said, and he droned on pretty much like all boring teachers do. Rei stared out of the window, hardly hearing the words. She was looking at the city of Neo-Osaka, where they had recently been transferred to. They now lived in a bigger apartment with the support of the Tokyo-2 government and charity funds. The school courtyard was empty at the moment, but it was sure to be full of the younger children during the lunchbreak. Beyond that, the steps led downwards to the city itself. It was a busy city, almost like Tokyo-2, but not as big.
Rei took out a piece of paper and started scribbling all over it. Is this how it felt to be bored? Then how would it feel to be liked--or loved? How does it feel to love? She was slowly learning her emotions, and if there was one emotion she never wanted to feel was hate.
Sure, Shinji and Asuka said the word all the time, but they never meant it...
~o~
"What is Shinji doing?" Asuka muttered.
"Will you sit down? You're giving me a headache," Toji asked Asuka.
"Well, where is he?" Asuka asked.
"I think he went out with Rei," Toji replied.
"WHAT!!!"
"Are you jealous?" Toji sniggered. "I never actually thought you'd fall for..."
Asuka snatched the a bun from his plate and stuffed it in his mouth. "I'll never fall for him! Now tell me where did he go?!"
Toji pulled the bun from his mouth. "Relax, Asuka. It's not like they are going to do anything..." he paused for greter effect, "illegal." He chortled.
"Shinji told you about THAT?!"
"Hey, we shared the same room, he told me."
"BAKA!!!!" Asuka screamed. "I'm going to slaughter him."
"As you wish," Toji said in a carefree way. He stretched, and went into his own bedroom. "Just leave me out of it okay?"
Asuka paced to and fro in the living room, occasionally looking out of the window. It was late afternoon. Shinji had been out since they came back from school. Asuka walked to Toji's bedroom and banged on the door.
"Don't bug me, Asuka. It's your turn to do dinner," Toji said.
"I know that you know where they are! Tell me!"
"No way!"
"TOJI!!!"
"NO!!! Sheesh!"
~o~
"Shinji, I hope you don't mind staying out so late," Rei apologised.
"I don't mind," Shinji grinned as he looked at the setting sun. "It's nice to be alone without Asuka on me, for once."
Rei smiled. "You two really hate each other."
"I don't know. Sometimes we say that, but we don't actually plan on hating each other for forever."
"I'm glad."
"So, what is it that you wanted to see me alone for?"
"Well, I want to learn the true meaning of happiness."
Shinji groaned. "Well, I don't think you are seeing the right person for that. Maybe you should ask Toji."
"I prefer to learn from you."
"Me?"
"Yes, please."
"I guess, the true meaning of happiness differs from each person."
"Meaning?"
"I will be happy if..." Shinji gulped. "If my father would care about me. Or that my mother had taken care of me."
"Others?"
"I guess, Asuka will be happy if she's in the spotlight for forever."
"Toji?"
"If he sees his younger sister again."
"Others?"
"If they achieve what they think is the reason they existed in the world. How about you, Rei?"
"To feel. To be more human. To know myself." Rei whispered. "I guess."
"Let's go home," Shinji smiled to Rei.
"Okay."
