It was space. Space with sparkling stars, and exotic planets and galaxies. He saw all the planets going about their revolution around the sun. But where he looked at where the sun was supposed to be, Relena was just standing there with her back in front of him. She turned around to face him. Her face serious, she spoke to him.
"Heero...you'll have to move on too"
"Relena...listen...I'll change gradually. If you 've been wondering or something I..." he said.
"What Heero?..."Her face became annoyed, but she kept her cool.
Could he say it? It seemed hard.
Then immediately, it seemed as if the distance between the two became greater and greater. Heero tried to run to her, but it was as if no matter how fast he ran, he did 'nt get even closer. They were becoming more and more far apart from each other. Finally, Heero could 'nt see Relena anymore.
"Relena!" he screamed to her.
Relena! He shouted. But no one was there. He looked around. He was on a bed, wearing a patient's attire. Nearby, there were medical instruments on the floor next next to him, stuff like the thing that tells your heart beat and etc. This must be a hospital.
What just happened with him and Relena? It was probably a dream he figured. But what was he doing in a hospital? In front of him was a wall with a mirror on it. In it, he saw himself with a piece of cloth wrapped around his head and few bandages on his face. Under his attire, there was cloth all over his body and arms. His right arm and left leg was wearing a cast. He thought a moment, trying to remember what happened. He remembered drinking...then he found out about Relena and Duo...then he went walking on the streets...and he got beat up by some thugs.
A door opened, and a pretty nurse came in. "Hello sir, how are you doing?" she asked smiling.
Rather than answer her back, he asked: "How long have I been here?" he said curt somewhat.
"You' ve slept for 1 day now."
"Who brought me here?" he asked her.
"It was a young man with long hair on his face. And it looked like he was from the circus."
Circus? Long hair? He knew who it was.
"In fact, he's here right now and would like to see you."
She left and as she did, the young man with long hair on his face wearing circus clothes.
"Hello Heero." Trowa said. "You seemed to have disappeared and no one knew what happened to you" he continued.
"When I found you, it looked like you were in a fight"
"Relena was worried so that's why I went looking for you"
Relena? Worried? About Him? That couldn't be true. She had Duo to love now. So why would she bother caring about him?
'Trowa-" Heero said, but he had already left.
Now Heero was there alone to think about what he was going to do, but he was too tired. Before long, the Perfect Soldier fell asleep once more.
The next day, Hero left the hospital, and went straight to his apartment. By the time he got there, it was already evening. Not really having anything to do, he went his message machine box to see if there were any messages for him. He pressed repeat.
"Uhm...Hello? Heero? It's Relena. I was going to come and see you. But...well, call me back when you get home."
"No new messages" said the robotic voice of his message box.
Should he call her? He thought a moment and decided not to. He did'nt have anything to say. Nothing.
