Matrix Reinstalled: In the Library
After that eventful evening everybody tried to sleep. Kriszo was lying in the bed and she was listening to the rain. And she was watching the window. "Kriszo, if you see any Agents out there, let us know!" She couldn't get Maritas words out of her mind. What if this was true. If Smith existed. And he was out there and watched them. On the one hand she wanted it to be true. But on the other hand she didn't. If Smith existed, then his prejudice against humans also existed. He called Selina a virus. And what if he noticed that she knew exactly who or what he was. And in this case he couldn't be far away. Now is it good or bad? But before she could come up with an answer she fell asleep.
The next morning she was the first who woke up. 7 o'clock. Time to get up. She dressed and walked over to the door. The house was silent so she didn't want to make noise. She gently opened the door and peeped out. Nobody was there. Then she stepped out to see whether somebody else woke up too. But every door was closed. Then she turned to close her door but it was already closed, so she bumped hard against it. And it was quite loud.
"What the..... damned door!"
"What the hell are you doing?"-asked OWSF and looked at her.
"I just ...uh..... well........I just couldn't sleep."
"But somebody would like to. So be quiet, please."
"Sorry."
"OK, then."-said she and went back to her room.
Kriszo stared at the closed door and rubbed her forehead. Then she remembered that she had to go to the library. Another linguistic home assignment. All right. Let's go. Sooner the better. So she left the house and went to the library. It was the university's library and there were several strange rules in it. You had to leave everything at a counter at the entrance. Your bags, your jacket, even your sunglasses. Nobody was allowed to enter until they got these things to the guy at the counter. Kriszo went by foot. The library wasn't so far away and it was a nice morning. She liked walking. During the walk she always watched the people, the cars. And every time she saw a black Audi her heartbeat became rapid. But there were so many Audis and none of them was THAT Audi. Finally she arrived at the library and went in. There was another Audi too in front of the building but she didn't pay too much attention to it.
"Morning, Joe."-said she to the guy at the counter.
"Morning."-answered he but he wasn't in a good mood. And it was unusual. He was not the sort.
"What happened?"-asked Kriszo as she gave him her bag and her coat.
"A guy, a real a-hole was here just a minute ago. I had to beg him to take off his shades otherwise he is not allowed to enter. We have profs working and reading here. What will they say if they see a guy in shades there. In this university's library."
Kriszo froze. A guy in shades. Maybe. No way! But...NO! And what if?
"And what did this guy look like?"
"Well, let me see. Tall. Brown hair, tie and suit, polished shoes. Oh, and the shades of course. He was quite strange if you ask me. Why?"
"Oh, nothing. ................Nothing." -said Kriszo but it was not nothing. "Where is he?"
"He went upstairs. And haven't come back yet. Why? Do you know him?"
"What? ...uh.....no. No."
"You are as white as a ghost. Are you all right?"
"Sure. ...........of course. Thanks, Joe."
"Don't mention."
Then Kriszo turned to go but she stopped and turned back.
"Did he give you his shades?"
"Yeah. Finally."-said Joe with a satisfied smile.
"Can I see it?"
"You are also quite strange today. But why not?"-said he and gave her the sunglasses.
She stared at it. It belonged to HIM. No doubt. And her hand started shaking.
"Can I keep it. I mean I'll go upstairs too. I will give it back to him."
"Ok. I don't care. Just don't wear it inside. Otherwise the profs will kill you."
"Thanks."-said Kriszo and went upstairs.
The American Department's section was on the second floor. When Kriszo reached there she opened the large glass door. There were several people there but she couldn't see HIM. But he was there. And he could see her. She started walking among the bookshelves. She had been walking for a half an hour but she found nothing. But suddenly the shades slipped from her hand. She bent down to lift it. And then she noticed something. Somebody in black polished shoes were standing behind the huge bookshelf. And then he started walking. She froze. Now what? If she went after him, what would he do? What would she do? But she couldn't let him leave the building.
"The others must see it."-said she and pulled out her cell phone. She was not allowed to use it in there but it didn't matter at all."
She called the house.
Maritas and OWSF were still in the house when the phone started ringing. They looked at each other and then they ran at the phone. Maritas picked it up.
"Yes."
"Maritas, it's Kriszo. HE is here."
"Here? Where? Where are you?"
"I'm in the library. Wake up the others and come! Quick!"
'Wait there!"-said Maritas and put back the receiver.
"Who? Where?"-asked OWSF.
"Kriszo. She is in the library. And HE is in the library too."
"What's happening here?"-asked Selina as she went downstairs.
Xensin and Drucilla followed her. All of them were quite sleepy.
"Smith was here. In my room. But now he is in the library. Kriszo could see him and I believe her."-said Maritas.
"What?"-asked Xensin, Drucilla, and Selina.
"Then what are we waiting for? Go to the library!"-said OWSF.
Well, that would be my first M.R. fic. What do you think? OK I know: I'm selfish. So I apologize for that. FORGIVE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I didn't check the grammar so don't be surprised or shocked! (but I hope you understand the story) Please feel free to continue or whatever you want. I don't know if I have time to write more. But we will see. Oh, and that anti-shades rule really exists in our library. That gave me the idea.
