001. ♦;; phone. action for household.
[ At first there was the faint, slight hope that just maybe everything that happened on Rokkenjima had all been a really, really bad dream. After all, she had been prone to getting nightmares around the time of the family conference, so maybe this was just another one, just a little more lively than the others. So when she woke up in a bed, surely she would only have to open her eyes and Hideyoshi would be there right next to her again. Right?
But he wasn't there. (Of course not, because he was dead, he would never lie next to her again like that.) Instead there was some strange unknown man in a strange unknown room. Her first instinct was to scream and kick whoever this was, but she found herself still a little shaky and way too tired for someone who supposedly just slept. By the time semi-rational thought returned to her Eva figured keeping a low profile for now might be a better idea and snuck out and through the house, but the unfamiliar surrounding only confused her more and the pictures - oh god, the pictures - filled with people she has never seen in her life before. And yet they seemed so much like happy family pictures and that only made her think more of Hideyoshi and George and their cold, bloodied bodies lying on the ground and--
That was what made the panic rise back to her head. And so the moment she found a phone she angrily picked up the receiver before shouting into it, throwing any form of rational thought out of her head once again. ]
Wh-what is going on..?! I demand some form of explanation! If this is supposed to be some sort of dream or even hell, at least have someone come out and say it instead of leaving me in the dark like this! Or if it's something else entirely, at least let me know what for--..
[ Her voice wavers for a moment and she drops a hesitant pause, her uneven breathing clearly audible even over the phone. When she speaks up again her tone sounds more bitter instead of the fury from just now and there's the very, very slight sound of a choked back sob. Eva isn't exactly emotionally stable right now. ]
Heh.. It's not like anything should still surprise me by now, right? After this long, insane night something like this is probably only a natural conclusion.. So, what is it this time..?
