EVA: Shinji Ikari Returns from the Dragon Clan

Chapter 41 40. Ice Cream Girl Asuka
"Asuka, even if you like ice cream, eating too much is not good for your health."

Last weekend.

The sun is scorching.

Finally a slightly tidier apartment.

After clearing away all the empty beer cans and fast food packaging, Misato Katsuragi glanced at the stock in the refrigerator. The rate at which the ice cream was consumed was too exaggerated, so she tried to persuade the greedy German girl with a headache.

"What does it matter? It's so hot."

Asuka was lying on the sofa enjoying the air conditioning.

She was dangling her feet, wearing only a skirt, not caring about revealing her body, and concentrating on eating the cool ice cream.

Really.

You'll know when you have a stomachache.

Misato Katsuragi, an experienced older woman, gave up the idea of ​​persuading her. This kind of thing is a lesson she will remember once. After all, today at the airport, she saw the girl returning from Germany with a melancholy face, and she knew how Asuka felt. At times like this, she should eat dessert and let the sugar dispel all the negative emotions in her mind. It would be best to be so happy that she doesn't think about those things at all.

She did inform Asuka of one thing.
"I almost forgot to tell you that I have a three-party meeting next week. I will go to school then."

"Three-party? Interview? What is that?"

Asuka asked confusedly.

She had to tell the German girl the story from the beginning.

After finally explaining everything to this ignorant foreigner, Asuka's lazy response made veins pop out on her forehead. Even a reliable adult woman would get angry.
"Tsk, just for something like this."

Brat!
Misato.

Don’t be angry. Don’t be angry.

Asuka is still under the influence of her mother's death anniversary, it is normal for her to be a little emotional, you have to understand. Katsuragi Misato tried to calm down her mood, but unfortunately asked about another matter with higher blood pressure.

"Come to think of it, did you not do your homework? I heard from the teacher that your grades are not very ideal."

"There's no need to do that." Asuka said without even turning her head, "I've even finished my university studies, so I can just deal with it casually. Driving the EVA is the most important thing now."

It makes so much sense.

The urban beauty was speechless for a moment.

Asuka went to school just to compete with the two drivers, and I motivated her a little because I didn't want her to train all day and not act like a girl of her age.

It's okay to be able to relax a little at school.

Katsuragi Misato thought for a moment and said,

"If we're talking about interviews, there's also Shinji-kun and Rei's."

"The two of them..." Asuka stretched out her voice in an exaggerated tone. She turned her head to look at Misato, her delicate eyelashes trembling up and down, full of gossip, "Do you think they are a couple..."

"That's definitely not the case. But, Shinji-kun, it's both very worrying and reassuring."

"What kind of strange statement is this?" she asked in confusion.

"Isn't it weird?"

"of course."

"Maybe Asuka will understand my feelings in the future."

"No, I won't. I'll become a weirdo."

The German lady turned away with disdain.

This time, Misato Katsuragi raised her lips and smiled softly, her temperament was a little different from her usual beautiful self.

It's always a good thing that the relationship between these children is getting better.

She stood up and stretched. Staying up late, drinking and age had not changed this woman's figure. Her curves were still beautiful. She said casually, "I'm going to the headquarters first. I think I have to go to a meeting. After the interview next week, you may have to live on your own for a few days. Don't miss me too much then."

"Will not."

The door rings.

Misato left.

The penguin and I were the only ones left in the apartment. The refrigerator suddenly moved, and the freezer underneath automatically extended out. The penguin staggered out from inside. It first looked at the door warily, then looked at Asuka who was lying on the sofa. After confirming that the newcomer would not hinder it, it then walked towards the dining table in small steps.

Ahhh.

I am bored.

Asuka suddenly recalled what happened in Germany over the past two days.

As expected, my father who had an affair was still meeting his lover, forgetting the fact that he had a daughter and even forgetting the anniversary of my mother's death. This time back to Germany, it was as unpleasant as before.

No matter what kind of love it is, it will deteriorate in the end.

Germany is not my home.

Neither is Japan.

Asuka was lying on the sofa looking at the ceiling, staring blankly at the dust on the incandescent lamp. The penguin Pianpian next to her was sneaking around, trying to open the bag of snacks and eat some while the owner was away, making a noisy sound of tearing the packaging.

Miri is just a temporary place to stay, not my home.

There is no place for me to stay anywhere.

Only Unit 2 is left.

She stretched out her right hand and opened it upwards. Her slender fingers shone the color of blood under the light. Asuka clenched it as if she wanted to grab something.

"Bah-"

It was as if I had really grasped something.

Asuka looked over in the direction of the sound and saw that the penguin had already torn open the packaging of the snacks. The aroma inside wafted out and it put its mouth in to devour the snacks.

The whole bag of snacks disappeared quickly.

"Really? If you eat too much, Misato will scold you."

She muttered.

Forget it.

Even if it's just a place to stay temporarily.

After all, there is nowhere to go. As long as I have Unit 2 by my side, I will be fine. I am the best pilot. I don’t need to care about other people’s eyes. I don’t need my parents. I can walk forward with my head held high and my chest held high.

just.

This person is Shinji Ikari.

He can live alone outside, and he can drive EVA to this day. Even though I am the best at driving EVA, I have to admit that he is more mature than me. I am even a little envious... When he said that handsome words, I seemed to be infected.

Asuka is eating ice cream.

Thinking silently.

Everybody seems to like him very much.

That stupid guy who liked to be a hero and say cool things, had such a high synchronization rate that everyone's eyes were on him, including Misato and the people around him.

She still remembers the chats she had with the girls in her class.
"Is he popular in school?"

"Of course, Shinji-kun is very gentle, he won't play pranks on girls, his grades are excellent, he also stands out in PE class, he's reliable and handsome, and he's completely different from those annoying boys. Girls all want to date him, but it's a pity that he's always been with Ayanami-san."

whispering sound.

You are the best.

The next battle with the apostles must be resolved perfectly!

Come quickly.

I'm ready!

Asuka suppressed the negative emotion and looked at the calendar hanging on the wall. The weekend was about to pass.

Tomorrow is Monday.

Ikari Shinji!
