After the War 3
"Why do you cry?' That voice in the back of my mind asked. I still can't bring myself to answer that. Not that it matters much anymore. I wish that it all hadn't happened. The war, Heero's death, all of it."
I pray for you everyday. For your safe return to us. I know reality hit you hard. I mean you blocked out Hilde's death. I don't agree with what that doctor did. But Sally trusts him, so I guess I'll just have to have faith."
You're too quiet. I'd never thought I'd say that. But then, I never thought I'd see the day when you were quiet. I thought about bringing some of your music. I even asked the doctor. Of course, he said no."
I'm sorry I couldn't bring Kara. I know you look forward to seeing her. Or at least you did before. She needs her happy uncle. Trowa and I are too serious for a three year old. For that reason alone you should try to get better."
I remember the look on your face when you say a small child. Your help was something I was counting on when I adopted her. I don't want her growing up solemn and quiet. I want her to have a spirit. Please Duo. Wake up."
Will you please look at me? Give me some sign that you're alive. Besides the movement of your breathing. Duo, what's going through your mind? Duo, say something! Please..."
It makes my heart ache when you just sit there. Can't you do something? Joke, maybe? Hit me. I wouldn't be adverse to that. At least it would be a show of emotion."
Your acting like Heero. No, actually, you're worse. At least Heero was always doing something. You just sit and stare out a dirty, barred window. You don't even care that your hair is down! And it's all my fault..."
Quatre looked at Duo and spoke softly, "I'm so sorry for putting you in here."
