Ariel's car reached Katto's residence after 40 minutes of driving. Soon as the car's arrived, Marcella doubted getting out. She grasped Miraya's hands even a bit squeezed the fingers. Miraya turned her face to see Marcella. She seemed worried about something.
"What's wrong?" Miraya half-whispered to her. Marcella raised her odd anxious grin to her, then disappear afterward shortly. Miraya scrunched her forehead and asked for more by intensive staring at Marcella. As if they communicate telepathically.
Ariel and Artemis, who found something strange, might have happened, then looked back to find out the oddity. The twins looked at each other like they were drowning in their world.
With nose scrunching to the weird things, Artemis tilted his face then murmured,
"What the hell is happening?" Ariel also has a similar frown then shrugged his shoulders. After some minutes of intensive stares, Miraya widened her eyes.
"Oh shit ... I forget about that!" she shrieked with her widened eyeballs.
"What do you forget about?" asked Ariel spontaneously. Miraya turned her attention to both Ariel and Artemis, who still looked back.
"Our Daddy must wait for us the whole night. Since we didn't come home, he probably has called cops right now!" both Artemis and Ariel shocked to their core. Their breath was not even the same anymore, and they're breathless; for some reason, they couldn't cope. It was more than just a nightmare if the police were getting involved.
But before they took a hand, the nightmare was coming. Two police cars were passing them towards the house.
"Fuck!" Artemis hid down his head automatically. His nose even almost touching Ariel's lift thigh. Ariel also almost on the verge of doing the same. But he couldn't do that because it would be ridiculous to pile Artemis up.
So he made his hideout by covering his half face with his right palm. Ariel pretended to rub the forehead, but initially, he wanted to at least half-covering himself up.
Miraya and Marcella, who sat on the back, were dumbfounded. But then they chose also to bow lower, hiding.
"The fuck the police are doing here, anyway!" Artemis cursed on his ludicrous hideout.
"Damn ... you have to responsible for this, Arte!" Ariel blurted frustration at him. Artemis frowned by looking up to Ariel with his dumb look.
"Why me!" he shrieked in a muffled voice. Ariel scoffed and chuckled at him instantly.
"Do you forget who's asking me to get the club last night?" he muffled with gritted teeth. Artemis grinned dumbfoundedly and kept his head lower.
"What should we do now?" asked Marcella worriedly. Ariel turned his head back and sighed.
"I don't know. Daddy must be so angry with us if he found out about this!" Miraya returned with her pale look. She could imagine how bad the situation would be they're facing now.
Artemis sought to turn his head to the right, and his eyes met Miraya closer than before. There were a few sparks that fell but too small to be seen.
"Hey, look!" Marcella pointed to cars outside when a crane car passed them. Miraya and Artemis heeded their accidental stares to see a crane pulled a sedan.
"Is that your car?" Ariel asked, eyeing the car.
"Yes!" Marcella straightly replied to him.
"This is getting worse now!" he added more. Both Marcella and Ariel opened the door to ran to the crane's car. Ariel held the car before getting in front of the gate where a few car's cops parked.
From their distance, Artemis lifted his head to peek at the situation outside. Artemis was gawking at Ariel when he spoke to the crane's driver to leave the car in the middle of the street. At the exact moment, he was also peeking at the police officers standing to guard the house.
"Please don't see it ... please don't see it!" Artemis spelled his chants to them so they won't recognize Ariel and Marcella.
"I gotta go!" Miraya murmured to Artemis. Artemis quickly grabbed Miraya's hand to stop her from getting outside.
"No ... you can't go outside!" he glared at her with a lower, deep, shrinking voice.
"I can't do that. My sister was there!"
"Just stay and wait for them!" Artemis insisted. She jeered annoyingly at him while Artemis kept holding hers.
Not so long after, Ariel walked to the car and knocked on the glass window of his car. Artemis unlocked the button so Ariel might glimpse at him from the outside.
"You need to get out and drive the car to your house. I'll tail you with my car!" Ariel talked to Miraya about his intention. Miraya didn't protest at all. She nodded to him and got out of the car.
Soon as she out, Ariel got behind the wheel and followed Marcella's car.
"Are you crazy? Why we must follow them?" Artemis was still in half of his position but protested to Ariel.
"Shut up. You need to explain to the girls' parents about what happened!" Artemis swiftly enlarged his eyeballs two times bigger.
"Nooo!"
"Don't be such a coward!" Artemis still shook his head denied the idea.
"Ariel, both my reputation and career were at the stake of ending here. You can't let me surrender myself!" he shrieked with a pale's expression to Ariel. Ariel scoffed and said nothing when he entered the gate, passing few officers.
It took few minutes from the main gate to the front lobby. During that time, Artemis was cursing non-stop.
"Ariel, please help me!" Artemis begged him eventually for having no choice. The cars were parked parallel to each other before Ariel turned his sight to Artemis.
"Then let's face it together okay, I'll help you to explain the problem. Trust me. I'll never leave you alone!" Artemis desperately sighed when Ariel took his step outside the car. He has no choice but followed him.
On the lobby's stairs, twins already stood there waiting for their companions to come along. After acknowledging, Miraya opened the front door, and they were walking inside.
Suddenly they jolted by their father's calling from somewhere in the enormous living room.
"Miraya? Marcella?" Mandala Katto paced his walk to his daughter and hugged them immediately. Their mother, Sherly, also did the same thing with tears in her eyes. She was so scared of losing her precious daughter.
"What happened last night? Why didn't you come home?" Mandala exclaimed the question right after, but few cops approached and asked them a different question before answering their parents.
"May we know who you are, gentlemen?" both Ariel and Artemis widened their eyes.
"Which one is Artemis Brajamohan?" asked the officer for more and were getting suspicious. Ariel ached to open his mouth, but Artemis was distancing himself a bit. It made Mandala pointed to Ariel.
"You are Artemis!"
