Chapter 3
Meyrin, Shinn and Luna after cleaning Athrun's apartment, went to a fastfood chain named Happibee*. They ordered fries, coke and burgers, then sat in one of the tables. Once they sat down.
"So, let me get this straight you guys thought me and Athrun had something?" Meyrin asked her sister and her boyfriend
The couple nodded in agreement
"And you guys plotted the whole event to happen?"
They both nodded again
"But you guys weren't aware of the fact that the representative and Athrun were in a relationship with each other?" Meyrin asked once again.
"We didn't know that he was in a secret relationship with that Atha." Shinn replied
"So, that explains why Athrun was so shocked to know that Lady Cagalli, was about to get married to that weird guy." Luna added
"Sis, what did you mean by that?" Meyrin asked curiously
"Remember, the time Athrun just got on board the Minerva, well I asked to guide him right. So, when we were inside the elevator, he asked why we the Minerva wasn't in Orb anymore, then I mentioned that they joined the earth alliance, and mentioned about the representative's wedding. You, know what he was so shocked to know about it that he even dropped his suitcase, and now that you mention it, does makes sense as to why they seem to have more than just friends relationship." Luna told them
"But, really Atha and Athrun, what a couple." Shinn joked
"Honestly, as your older sister, Meyrin I just wanted you to be happy and I actually think you suit Athrun far more better than Lady Cagalli, I think you guys are better for each other, I mean you even helped him escape and you were there during the time he was down at his lowest point. Maybe it's just me being bias cause you're my sister but I think you love Athrun more than she loves him" Luna concerned for Meyrin said
"Sis, I really appreciate the effort I really do. And yes, you both are right I still like Athrun but I have to correct you sis. I believe it's Lady Cagalli's love that surpasses mine. Why? Because if I remember correctly Athrun mentioned once that if it wasn't for Cagalli, he might be dead a long time ago because for him she was the sun that brightens his darkness. She was the one who understands him the most and vice-versa. Believe it or not I actually support those two, you can feel that they love each other so much that when they're together nothing matters. He even mentioned before that both of them vowed to protect each other. Isn't that sweet? Plus I think their romance is like Romeo and Juliet" Meyrin explained
"Okay, okay. But why do you say like Romeo and Juliet?" Shinn asked
"Well, you guys know that in the story they come from rival families that don't agree with the other. And just like them remember that Athrun's Dad planned on killing every natural right? But Cagalli's father thinks the other way around rather he thinks that both species can exist. Plus, they are both well-known and powerful families, from the different sides. The only difference is that they thankfully didn't die together, but almost did." Meyrin said
"They almost died?" Luna asked with curiosity
"Yep, Lady Cagalli mentioned before, that once during the end of the first bloody valentine, Athrun decided to sacrifice himself and commit suicide along with his Justice Gundam, so that they could stop GENESIS from destroying earth, but Lady Cagalli stopped him from doing so."
"To think they've been through so much." Luna said
"So, what do we do now?" Shinn asked
"Well for starters we have to clean up the mess you both made, anyways you guys really act recklessly and just do thing without my persmission, I knew something was up when you guys just dragged me into Athrun's apartment." Meyrin scolded them
"Okay, okay we're wrong but I think I know a solution on how we could get them back together." Luna told the two that she came up with a plan.
…
Athrun after reading the notes, stared at ceiling for minutes being in a state of disbelief, for he can't accept the fact that his relationship with his princess might end. He kept on crying meekly, all by himself. He then thought of calling Mryna to ask how Cagalli is feeling. He went to the counter to dial the Atha manor's telephone number.
Ring ring ring
"Hello, this is the Atha residence, may I ask who is calling?" A woman in her late forties answered.
"Hello, Mryna it's me Athrun."
"Oh, Sir Zala, why the unexpected call? Is something the matter"
"Well, I just wanted to ask how Cagalli is."
"Oh, Princess Cagalli, well she just got home from the gym. She seems frustrated and depressed since this morning. Do you happen to know why Sir Zala?" Mryna concerned asked Athrun
"Well I can somehow guess it's because of me, well we had this big misunderstanding this morning. Do you think she'll forgive me?"
"Well, honestly though I may not know the cause of the misunderstanding, from the way looks right now. I think it would be better to leave her alone and give her some time to think over things. I know that you really never meant to hurt her, and I hope the two of you can make-up with each other, but I sincerely think that you must leave her and give her time for about a few days." Mryna explained
"I see, thank you Miss Mryna. Oh, and can you call me if there's news about Cagalli."
"Will do, Sir Zala, I'll call you the moment I feel Princess Cagalli is ready to open up her feelings."
"Thanks, bye." Athrun then put phone down then went to seat on the couch, to think more about stuff. Just like a hamster, his thoughts going around in circle.
…
Back in the Atha Mansion
Cagalli after getting back from the gym decided to take a shower, she kept on crying thinking about what happened. She kept of thinking of her memories with Athrun. The day they parted before they went to space to end the final battle, their last hug. That during that time, when she was about to exit the Archangel, her favor to Meyrin, when she thought he would leave her and choose Meyrin instead and to not come back anymore to her side. And when he returned to her, and their dramatic reunion, and him asking her forgiveness, asking her if it's still not late to return to her side. All those memories, that kept on crawling on her mind. She thought that maybe what happened before was just a nightmare, and all of this is just a dream that when she wakes up, he will be there holding her hand saying it's alright, and she'll go back to sleep with much ease because she knows he is there near her comforting her. However, reality strikes back and unfortunately everything happened. She kept on crying, just like a child.
"I hope there could be a reset button, in real life so that I could turn back the time, and just came in a little late. Maybe I wouldn't see it." Cagalli said while tears falling on her face.
After taking a bath, she dressed up in a tank top and shorts, she wanted to take a nap for awhile so she jumped in her bed. She went near the dresser near her, and took a ring that has a ruby on it. It was the promise ring Athrun gave her before he re-enlisted in Zaft before. She kept on staring in the ceiling while looking at the ring, she placed the ring near her heart and cried again.
"I don't want everything to end because of this. I want to forgive you but somewhere deep within me shout I shouldn't." Cagalli said to herself.
She kept on crying until she fell asleep while holding the ring close to her heart.
