Theory of Conspiracy: Mind Your Manner
"Come on, Athrun! Hurry up!" Cagalli dragged Athrun who had just arrived. Athrun laughed a bit, it was so not like her to act like this.
"What's with the hurry, Princess?" asked Athrun as he tried to walk faster.
"There's someone I want you to meet," Cagalli brought him to the backyard of the mansion where her father was sitting under a tree. Athrun eyes widened for a while, he recognized Cagalli's father. Luckily he had enough self control to prevent his mouth asking if that was Uzumi's ghost.
"Father, this is Athrun. He's the son of Patrick Zala, the former chairman of ZAFT. He used to join the army but now he works as my bodyguard," Cagalli introduced her boyfriend to her father.
"Sir," Athrun bowed. Suddenly he felt a weird atmosphere around this man.
"Such a respectful young man," Uzumi praised, he nodded his head. "I believe you are a skillful person. Thank you for protecting my daughter."
"It's an honor for me, Sir," Athrun was surprised by his own voice that sounded cynical. Cagalli socked his ribs and glared at him. Athrun gave her a confused look.
"It's time for me to go to work. Get some rest, Father. I will see you again this afternoon," the young princess of Orb grabbed Athrun's hand and pulled him to the garage. A few minutes later they had sat in Cagalli's car and went to the Governmental building. In the middle of their ride, Cagalli asked Athrun.
"Why did you do that?"
"Did what?" the blue haired coordinator replied.
"Talking like that to my father! What the hell were you thinking of!" she hit him several times, upset by his impolite attitude toward her father.
"Auch! Cagalli, stop it—hey! Listen, I'm sorry but I didn't know why I acted like that, I was—ooow!" Athrun tried to escape from her deadly punches. He finally managed to save himself after Cagalli gave a final poke on the back of his head. Athrun lifted his face and saw Cagalli pouted at him.
"Cagalli, listen, I'm sorry. I know my behavior was not good, but I felt something strange about your father," he explained.
"Yeah? What?" she frowned.
"I, I don't know. It was just some kind of a feeling that snapped trough my mind," Athrun couldn't think of anything better because he didn't exactly know what was wrong.
"Just for that illogical reason and you misbehave at my father? Oh! I can't believe you," Cagalli turned her back to face Athrun. For the rest of the trip, they kept silent each other.
"Cagalli must be happy," Lacus said as she sat beside Kira who was holding a newspaper. All the news was focused on one thing only, the reappearance of Uzumi Nala Athha. Every picture on the paper showed the Lion of Orb with his daughter and the other representatives. Kira read the headline of the newspaper. The Lion of Orb Has Returned! It said that Uzumi survived the explosion which was detonated by himself after one of his bodyguard forced him to go to a secret hiding place under the building just a few seconds before the whole place exploded. However, he was injured quite badly and being unconscious for a long time. He was taken care by his secret service until he finally recovered and decided to go back to Orb.
"Of course," Kira folded the newspaper and turned the TV on to watch a report on Cagalli and Uzumi. Uzumi was making a statement that he would not be the ruler of Orb anymore and he gladly gave the position to his daughter.
"She had taken a good care of this country when I was away," Uzumi spoke in his deep heavy voice. "That's why I believe her to continue leading this beloved country of ours." And blah, blah, blah… the rest of the report was not important to this story so let's just jump to the next part.
Kira watched his twin sister who was standing behind her 'father'. His expression slowly changed. Lacus realized this and took his hand.
"What's wrong, Kira?" she asked with her angelic voice. Her action snapped Kira back to reality.
"Uh? No, nothing's wrong," he shook his head to clear his mind.
"Kira?"
"I'm fine, it's just… I'd better see the kids. They're too quite, I wonder what they're doing," Kira stood up and left Lacus.
"But, Kira…" Lacus tugged his sleeve. His face when he saw Cagalli with Uzumi was unexplainable, like somehow he was sad or upset and this made Lacus to worry. Kira gave her a small smile.
"I know what's in your mind. But now that Cagalli is happy, I don't have anything to be worried anymore. I'm fine, Lacus. Come on, let's see the kids," he put an arm around her shoulder and brought her to the backyard.
But your eyes don't say so Lacus thought. Why do you have to lie, Kira?
Even though like that, the pink princess kept her mouth shut.
Kira: Yay! Another part! And this time with Lacus!
Solid: Satisfied?
Kira: No! No fluffy part, no romance, no kissing, no drama...
Solid: Ehem!(One finger roaming around the backspace button)
Kira: (showing an horror expression) Err, yes?
Solid: Good...
