Rolo was livid. His blunt nails bit into his hands as he made his way to the hospital. He was beyond livid. He was furious! He wanted to go back to that-that-that thing's apartment and show him just what he knew about using household liquids to create skin dissolving acid. He had half a mind to castrate him as he marched through the sliding doors of the hospital. He jammed at the number 13 button in the elevator before he took in several deep breaths. He leaned against the wall and slammed his fist back. Rolo knew Suzaku was trouble when he first met the guy. When he first became friends with Lessoir, he thought Suzaku would be trouble to his mission. Later on, when he was adopted into the family, he knew Suzaku meant pain to his beloved sister. He was right.
The doors opened to his floor and Rolo slumped down the hallway to her room. On his way back from the thing's apartment, Jeremiah had sent him a text stating the room number Lessoir resided in. She was no longer in danger but her health had made a turn for the worst. Nunnally had arrived along with C.C. Rolo schooled his face into one of cold stone before he walked into the room. Nunnally was sitting beside her sister in her wheelchair. Her healed eyes gazing unseeingly out the window. C.C. was holding onto the Cheese Doll Lessoir brought her a while back. Jeremiah was nowhere to be seen.
Rolo took one glance at his sister before he stepped back out of the room. He leaned against the wall next to the door and closed his eyes. The image of Lessoir surrounded with machines and washed out cheeks, the fear tightened its hold onto his heart. She couldn't die, Lessoir was his lifeline. Without her, he was nothing, no one. He knew he had Nunnally there for him as well as Jeremiah. But they didn't matter as much as Lessoir. She was his sister, his mother in a way. She was his light and without her, there was no point of Rolo behind Rolo.
Rage burned out the fear within his heart. If Lessoir died, she would not have wanted him to die. She would ask him to watch out for Nunnally, help out Jeremiah, and to protect their tight family. Suzaku was part of that family. But Rolo would rather kill the man then ever watch out for him.
A dripping sound snapped Rolo out of his slight rage. He looked around behind he looked down. A trail of blood followed his path and ended at his feet. His hands were the source of the dripping blood, his nails the weapon to create the cuts. A gasp alerted him of another person, who turned out to be a nurse. She pulled him aside and fussed over his hands.
Rolo allowed the woman to fuss over his hands while he collected his thoughts. Connections started to form and an image started to form. Violet eyes widened slightly as the image came to light. But he needed her motive. He needed a woman's point of view. Shirley would be the best choice to ask however she wasn't in the city at the moment. Molly would be next but she was out of the city as well. A twinge of pain from his hands reminded him of the nurse in front of him. She would do.
"Excuse me." His voice hoarse after yelling at Kururugi.
"Yes, dear?" She had light brown eyes, warm eyes that showed her care. Rolo saw eyes similar to those before, on his sister.
"What would you do, if you found out that the man you were going to marry happened to be sleeping with your sister?" He chose his words carefully and she noticed his carefulness. She leant back and thought about her answer for a while before she finished with his hands.
"I don't know. If I really loved this man, I think my heart would shatter before I knew what I was doing." She shrugged her shoulders as she cleaned up after herself. "If my heart did shatter, then the most extreme thing I would do would be a suicide attempt." Her words confirmed Rolo's thoughts but it was her following words that surprised him. "But if I can't do that, then there will be hell to pay." She led the boy out as she walked towards the elevator.
For once in his life, Rolo felt pity for Kururugi. When Lessoir wakes up, like the nurse said, there would be hell to pay.
