Briony and Bianca's smile fell when they stepped out of the portal and the first thing they saw was the scowl on Bell's face. She was sitting on the black leather couch with her husband's arms draped around her shoulder.
Not too far from her is Brina, standing near the saucer-shaped table with a look of dismay on her face. Luc was behind her sitting in front of the computers.
Before Bell could open her mouth to speak, Briony already beat her to it as if she already anticipated what she was going to say or ask. "We went to Funa Mogara," She said.
"I don't care where the fuck you went. You didn't goddamn tell us," Bell said spat icily.
"You should've told us what you were planning. It is not as if we would stop you. At least, we could've known where you were so we do not worry," Brina's voice was the total opposite of Bell's, and Briony and Bianca were thankful for that. But that doesn't mean Brina's words won't guilt them.
