She hates walking back drunk.
She's an adult, godammit! She should be allowed to continue getting drunk.
Instead Hikari frowns and tells her she's had enough (And she drunkenly replies that there is not enough alcohol in the world to make it enough) and then Rei tells the bartender to cut her off, so she begins to drunkenly flirt with whatever available guy is around to buy her a drink; ONE LOUSY DRINK! (Until those stupid, good for nothing stooges show up and tell that nice guy who was gong to buy her one to take a hike)
And then suddenly Hikari is by her side, and somehow she's on the restroom kneeling in the ground and she feels so bad; her head hurts, her stomach hurts...
But it's her chest; Her chest is the one that hurts the worst.
And now, Hikari and Rei are pulling her thru the deserted streets of Tokyo-3 and she begins to spill her secrets and guts in a slurred speech, trying to tell her best friend and her coworker why she would go to such great lengths in getting drunk every day, every night, since-
And now she is crying and sobbing and shaking and holding on to dear life to both of the girls while she slowly and softly, almost in a shallow, desperate whisper keeps repeating out loud and in her head over and over and over OHMYGODWHYDIDHELEAVEMEWHYDIDHELEAVEMEWHYDIDHELEAVE-?
And as she slowly cries herself to sleep, sobbing and holding herself, she knows tomorrow she will put on a brave face, and a snotty attitude and an arrogant exterior as a front for the whole world to see.
But when the time to leave comes, she will again go straight home, to get herself drunk, and then show to the bars, trying to use all the alcohol in the world to fill in the gaping hole in her chest and her soul.
She can't help but think about the severe repercussions tomorrow she will face.
Worst yet, she can't help but feel this has all been for naught.
And as the tears slowly recede and she starts to fall into the warm embrace of unconsciousness, she knows...
She really hates walking back drunk.

It's not like she actually likes being sick, but sometimes you just can't help it.
She will get up and feel a little faint. Think nothing about and go on her usual activities for the day ("Hello Mr. And Mrs. Ikari I'm here to get Shinji" "SHINJI! GET UP! WE'RE GONNA BE LATE!" "Good-bye Mr. and Mrs. Ikari")
As the day progresses she will start to feel weaker, but she will then remember she hasn't had nothing to eat, so she will blame it on hunger, the lack of nutrients for her growing body, and when lunch hour comes by, and she is sitting with Shinji enjoying lunch, she will gladly accept his lunch as well ("B-but Asuka! I haven't finished eating ye-" "Shut up Shinji! It's your fault I wasn't able to eat breakfast, again!")
And when gym class comes by, before she can finish the second lap, she will see everything hazy and blurry, and then somehow she will see the sky, even when she doesn't remember turning her head up and suddenly she feels something hitting her back, and the frightened voices of Shinji and Hikari closer by.
When she comes to, she sees she's at the nurses office, and Akagi-Sempai tells her that she is sick with the flu and going home, and Shinji will volunteer to take her back, and he will then stay with her for the rest of the afternoon ("I told you I'm fine..." "And I told you I'm not leaving 'till your mom get's home." "...Thanks, Shinji...")
And when the next day comes, and she feels her whole body going cold and hot, a shiver going down her spine, and her head throbbing, Shinji will skip school and stay with her all day, taking care of her and checking her forehead to see how she's doing.
And as she covers the lower half of her face to obstruct Shinji's view of her smiling face, she will blame the flush and the heat on the flu.
But she actually doesn't hate being sick (Especially if he's going to be taking care of her)
