Chapter 2
The day went by without any mention of her uneasiness. While doing her normal rounds in the office, she paused every once in a while to listen in on the conversation s that people we having, hoping she might over hear something about the card. No one seemed to be particularly interesting today, so she walked back off to her desk. Roy was ready for his next stack of paperwork, so she organized another set and placed it on his desk, collecting the first stack.
Around 5:00, everyone left the office leaving her and the colonel there alone. At quarter past, Mustang got up and brought the stack over to her desk, which was abnormal for him. Normally he tapped his pen until she got mad and brought over the next stack. As he dropped the papers on her desk, she looked up at him in surprise.
"Finished already Colonel?" she asked.
"Yes, I'm finished and I'm leaving. You should go home too, it's Friday." He responded. He walked back over to his desk and picked up his cap and jacket. He placed his cap on his head and smoothly slid his jacket onto his shoulders. He walked out the door, like normal, giving her a small wave as he exited.
Riza smiled to herself, confirming her thoughts that her colonel had another date that night. Well, good. That means it wasn't him that sent that card. She looked at the drawer that she had hastily shoved the card into earlier and opened it. Pulling the card out, it reminded her of the paper that she had placed in her pocket. Pulling that out too, she put both pieces of paper into her bag and got up to lock the door to the office. She headed towards the mailroom, not looking at any of the other people who were still in the large building. Once she arrived she reached into her mailbox and found a small box inside. She opened it and pulled out another piece of paper. She read it aloud to herself, knowing that no one could hear her.
"Check inside Black Hayate's dog house. What in the world?" She said. Puzzled, she walked out of headquarters, not noticing the man in the shadows. The figure in the shadows smiled and turned down the hall in the opposite direction.
Riza walked home to her apartment with renewed interest in her situation. She rounded the corner and climbed the two steps to her door. She walked over to her little dog's house and peered hesitantly inside.
"Ruff! Ruff!" Black Hayate jumped out of his dog house as she jumped back in surprise. He jumped up on her uniform and knocked her down on the ground, licking her until she finally pushed him off.
"Silly dog! Stop! It's nice to see you too. Tell me; did you get a visitor this afternoon?" she said again as she looked inside again. Sure enough, there was a large box wedged into the back of his shelter. She yanked it out and eyed it carefully. The box was lavender again, like the card, and had a few paw prints on it from Hayate. She lightly shook it; it didn't make a sound. She began to worry about her situation…
