Okay, this is it; I swear. O.o I have to go... do something. Catnip the cats or something...
Part 3
The first incoming call came from Wufei, oddly enough. Since I was not otherwise occupied, I answered rather than let it go to voice mail. I wasn’t particularly happy with him right then; he had, after all, been on the wrong side during the Mariemaia thing. He’d allowed himself to be used by a megalomaniac. Worse, he’d kicked the holy crap out of my Wing while I did my best not to just incinerate his guilt-ridden ass. But he seemed afterward to be genuinely appalled at his part in the attempted coup, so I was willing to speak to him.
“Yuy.”
“Chang.”
“I have a complaint.”
“I’m sure you do.”
“Whatever possessed you to just walk out of the hospital like that?”
“I decided to leave.”
“It did not occur to you that other people might be concerned about you?”
“That’s very kind of you, Chang, but your concern is not necessary.”
“I didn’t say *I* was concerned!”
“Then what are we talking about?”
“Relena! She was heartbroken to find you gone!”
“I’ve already heard about Duo’s shirt. I’ll buy him a new one.”
“Duo...? What the hell has Duo to do with this? You left without a word to that woman! She’s been beside herself with worry ever since!”
“And that concerns you... how?”
“It was a damned dishonorable thing to do; just disappear like that!”
I smirked at the phone. Did I detect something more than just righteous indignation?
“Chang, there is nothing between Relena and me. She’s a fine person, but she is not *my* person. If you have an interest, please feel free to pursue it.”
I was met with incoherent sputtering. I said mildly, “She seems to enjoy teddy bears; good luck. Invite me to the wedding.” And I hung up before he could form a cogent response.
