Hilde walked in her apartment door, threw her coat on the back of her chair and raked a hand through her dark blue hair with an exasperated sigh as she sat down on the couch. Things hadn't been going good lately.
She looked over at the one wall in which Duo had written on, she had yelled at him for that and he had given her his beautiful violet puppy dog eyes and urged her to read what he had written:
"If only the walls could talk,
They'd tell us tales of the days when they were new,
If only the walls could talk,
They'd tell you how much I love you."
"That was before...." Hilde replied staring absentmindedly at the writing on the wall, she hadn't erased it, and after such a long time it had become worn and faded. Duo was gone now, him and Heero had both died by an Oz sniper just a few years ago. Hilde and Relena had cried for days once they heard. But now Relena was with Quatre in Europe. Sally was with Wufei in California and Midii was with Trowa in Ireland. Hilde was alone.
With tears in her eyes Hilde stood up and went into the kitchen. "No point in reminiscing...." She replied as she got a washcloth full of water and plenty of soap, then she walked back out to the living room; then with one last glance Hilde began to erase the old words from her wall. Then once they were all gone, Hilde threw the washcloth into the sink, grabbed a knife out of the drawer then went to the door and opened it, knife in hand. "Hai, Duo-kun.." She said softly. "They'd tell of all the bloody battles and broken hearts....If only the walls could talk...." Then with a teary smile she walked out the door, not bothering to close it behind her.
