Accident 8: The shower

It was cold outside.  Wintertime was approaching.  Quistis was cleaning out the cage of her hamster. (Small animals were allowed to be held, but not dogs or cats… So Rinoa's dog Angelo had to stay with Ma Dincht. ~She's such a nice woman…~) She filled a bucket with water.  Then she walked to the back of the Gardens garden and cleaned out the cage.  Then she started to walk back.
Quistis looked at the ground, the gravel path.  It was filled with little blue and some white stones.  The white ones were so pretty and… well, white.  Next to the path there was a grass field at each side, where the students and SeeD's could lay down to relax during the summer or (for some of them who still have to learn how to be an adult) play in the snow, hold snowfights and build snowmen.
Quistis continued to clean out the cage.  Her hands in the cold water made a chill run through her spine.

Seifer was watching her every move.

~I wish you'd come speak to me sometime, nothing that has to do with Garden.  But just tell me how you feel…. About me.  I want to know if you like me.  Maybe then we could go somewhere together, even if it is just shopping.  But could you just try and give me something to believe in.  I want to give you my love…~

Quistis started singing during her work. It was almost like she knew how he felt.

"Come speak to me
Easy like hands on skin
Come speak to me
Easy like sky on earth
We are going to do something
If you come and tell me
Just how you feel
Cause we're going to work it out
Even if you're world's falling apart
Are you gonna do something?
Are you gonna trust me?
Are you gonna take care of what I've been giving?
Are you?"

Birds were singing, but for Seifer it wasn't a happy song.  And he thought of all those sleepless nights, because of her.  There always was a moon ray trying to enter the room and sometimes even falling on his face.  He thought of every time that happened.  And when she talked about the times they all had spent at the orphanage, he always remembered how the two of them watched the sunset.  But she didn't remember that.  It wasn't important to her. ~I'm not important to her.~

"Birds are crying for the tow of us
Can't sleep
Cause the moon
Reminds me of your face
And now I can see
Sunsets on my homeland
Through your words still alive"

~If you would just come speak to me… I would explain why I became the Sorceress knight.  I was trying to remember the past and then I saw Edea… Matron… I was hoping it could be like it used to be… When will you take the time to speak to me?  The time to realize how I feel about you?~

"Come speak to me
Easy like hands on skin
Do you know why I left?
It's cause I was digging into my past
Are you gonna do something?
Are you gonna take care of what I've been ginving?
Are you, are you?"

~I still can't sleep, because of you… Why don't you remember the sunsets we watched together, sitting in the sand and listening to the sound of the waves?~

"Birds are crying for the two of us
Can't sleep
Cause the moon
Reminds me of your face
And now I can see
Sunsets on my homeland
Cause your words are alive

For the both of us
Can't sleep
Cause the moon
Reminds me of face
And now I can see
Sunsets on my homeland
Through your words still alive"

~I always think of you, during the day, during the night.  You are a mystery.  But you don't hear my silent cry, you don't see my love…~

"The sun keeps telling me mysteries
(Are you listening to me? Are you?)
The moon keeps telling me mysteries
(Are you gonna take care of what I've been giving?)"

~I feel so dirty…~ Quistis went to the bathroom and gently dropped her clothes.  She turned on the water.  ~Dammit!  Why can't the water just have the right temperature?  It's not warm enough!~
After a couple of frustrating minutes she finally found it.  ~Mmmmm… Nice and hot….~  The water was running down her slim body.  She took the shampoo and massaged it into her hair.  Then she moved her hands to her neck, then going over the front of her body and they stopped at her tummy.  She turned around and started to wash the shampoo out.  After she had washed her body Quistis held her hair behind her ear, the other one covered, and held it under the water.  It was just like listening to a nearby waterfall.  She did the same thing with her other ear.  Sometimes it was like you were sitting inside and listening to an approaching storm, the rain falling down and the wind blowing hard.  She always did that to relax a bit more.


The next day…

~Auw, my muscles…  Guess I was a little out of shape.  I shouldn't have trained so hard last night.~

She got up to take a relaxing shower before going to her classes.
As she turned on the water, it was freezing cold, then it got burning hot, again freezing cold and so on and so on…. She tried to sop it but she couldn't turn of the water.  Quistis wanted to get out of the shower but the door wouldn't open.  The always-so-calm Instructor was panicking.
"Help!  Help!  It's an Evil Shower!  Evil, I tell you!  Help!" She obviously screamed for help.
