Ducktales: Journey To Agartha - Act 5

Chapter 45: Gyro's "Affair"

"Gy, Glo, you guys here?" Heidi peeked her head into their motel room. How did she get in? Lock picking. Duh.

When she saw the room was empty, she smirked to herself. Girl had a plan.

Taking out red lipstick she got from a local Walgreens, she headed over to the small, dirty-ass bathroom.

"Gearloose," She wrote on the mirror. "Thx for the good time last night. Just in case you want to do it again... 9990-643-7863 <3"

Smirking to herself, she set the opened lipstick on the counter.

Gloria had stayed out really late last night, so it'd be believable that Gyro had a girl over. Hopefully the plan would work.

____________________________________________________________________________________

An hour had passed since Heidi came into their motel room before Gloria came back. "Gyro? Are you here?" When she didn't get an answer back, she assumed that he was still outside looking for Fluffy. That guy is putting in a lot of effort to find a dog that he didn't even like but whatever.

Gloria shrugged it off and went into the bathroom. The writing on the mirror was the first thing that she noticed followed by the red lipstick that was left on the counter. She picked it up to examine it, looking back and forth between the writing and the lipstick. She set it down and marched back into the main part of the motel room and grabbed her phone to call Gyro. That little bitch has some explaining to do. When Gloria tried calling, the phone went straight to voicemail. That made her even more confused and angry. Homeboy was minutes away from dying. May he rest in peace.

The dead man himself entered the room and slammed the door shut. "I can't find that damn dog anywhere! And we cannot leave Florida without her! She ran away on purpose to mess with me, I swear!"

The look that Gloria gave Gyro told him that he was in deep trouble. She crossed her arms. "Where were you?"

He ignored Gloria's pissed off look, assuming she was just moody. "At a retirement home. I figured maybe some old lady found Fluffy walking around and took her for herself." He ended up getting kicked out for seeming like a creep but whatever.

There was a moment of silence before Gloria spoke up again. "Gyro, I don't want to accuse you of anything but you have two seconds to explain what the hell the writing on the bathroom wall is supposed to mean!" She pointed to the bathroom.

He gave her a weird look before walking into the bathroom. He obviously noticed the red lipstick on the mirror right away. He skimmed it and his eyes widened.

"Gloria, this isn't what it looks like. I don't know who this is from." Gyro said, and then it hit him. This is what Future Gloria warned him about. About Heidi. "I can explain! This is a set up!"

"A set up? That's your excuse?! The front door locks! There is no way a person can come in and just write that on the wall! And even if someone could come in, who would go out of their way to do that?! Huh?! Who?!"

"Heidi! Heidi would!"

She scoffed "Why would Heidi do that? She's my friend and we were hanging out together last night at a party so it couldn't have been her! Which means that you were here in the motel by yourself, at least you were by yourself! God- I can't believe you!"

"Gloria, you know I wouldn't do that! Heidi must've come in here this morning! It was her, I know it was!" He took off his hat and started nervously pulling at his hair. "I get a bad feeling around her and I think you should keep your distance... got it?"
