Chapter 4
Yazoo opened his eyes slowly, lifting a fine boned hand to rub the sleep out of them. It was dark in the room again and a glance towards the window told him that night had fallen. He had slept through the whole day. Yazoo sighed then tried to sit up. The stabbing pain in his side had lessened to a throbbing ache. He stretched his knee, it was very stiff and a little swollen and still hurt like a bitch but at least it was moving.
Altogether he felt much better.
The door that had been half shut opened a little further and the woman Marlene had called Tifa poked her head in. The light from the hallway came into the room. "Oh! You're up. Wait just a minute and I'll get you something to eat." she was gone and headed back down the stairs. He wasn't all that hungry. When Tifa returned there were heavy footsteps behind hers and Cloud appeared. Yazoo watched them both with a blank expression. Tifa set a bowl of soup next to him. "It's not much but you'll be able to keep it down after not eating for so long." she said.
Yazoo wasn't really sure what to do. He didn't want these people of all to be helping him. Cloud had killed Kadaj had he not? His brother. These people were the enemy…….. weren't they? Cloud was watching him with his soulful blue eyes. "Don't worry, its not poisoned or anything" he said. Yazoo didn't respond, of course it wouldn't be. Cloud could have killed him any time. He didn't need poison.
Once again Marlene came to his rescue. She popped her head in the room and called, "Tifa! Cloud! Me and Denzel are ready for bed. You promised us a story!" Tifa smiled at her. "Alright, we'll be there in a minute." Tifa turned to Yazoo. "I'll be back in a little while to get the bowl." she left taking Cloud with her.
Yazoo picked up the bowl feeling much less self conscious. He could only force a few spoonfuls down his throat. It wasn't that it was bad, it was actually quite good he noted absently. He just couldn't make himself take food from an enemy even if it would give him the strength to find his brother. /Tomorrow. I will go tomorrow./
He set the bowl aside and began making plans as to how to go about searching for Loz in the morning.
