As soon as the three of them had gone back to the room, all were left dumbfounded at the event of possibly being the worst night of their life. Nagkatitigan lamang ang tatlo habang pinoproseso ang nangyari sa restaurant. Tulala si Lockey at hindi makapaniwala na aabot sa sitwasyong hindi niya inaasahan. Ikinabigla niya iyon. 

"What the fuck that just happened?" Napahawak si Simon sa ulo niya habang iniisip ang biglaang pag-kompronta ng mga awtoridad sa kanilang kaibigan.

Dahan-dahan namang napaupo si Lockey sa gilid ng kama at napahawak sa tuhod habang iniisip ang nangyari.

"Why they were going to arrest Lockey?" takang tanong ni Malcolm. "This just doesn't make sense to me. Saka paano nila nalaman na nasa restaurant sa mga oras na 'yon si Lockey at ang tita niya? Something is not right..."

"And it's not right not to tell this to Sir Gregory," Simon noted. "He would be fuming if he found out that this happened. We should tell him. What do you think, Lock?"

Tumingin ang dalawang kaibigan kay Lockey. Nakayuko ito at malalim ang tingin. Nang muling tawagin ang atensyon nito ni Simon ay iniangat niya ang kanyang tingin.

"Huh? Ano ulit 'yon?"

"Should we tell this to Sir Gregory? Kasi kung hindi natin sasabihin, he'll know it eitherway. We should come clean at baka mas alam niya pa kung anong gagawin."

"I would agree to it, but we would let you think about it, Lock." Tiningnan ni Malcolm si Simon at sa isang tingin ay tumango ang kaibigan. "We don't know what happened. I, too, was shocked..."

"Yeah... I was just more worried about my aunt," Lockey said. "They could've detained them and questioned them just to know where am I now. They don't know that. They don't have any idea where am I, but for the fact that Sir Gregory just told her I'll be studying elsewhere... I hope they won't do anything to her."

"She got Gage, though," Simon said. "Sure he'll protect her right?"

Lockey raised his head looking questionably at his friend. He shook his head before he could answer him. "I don't know about that, Sime. I don't even trust that guy. He just came into our lives."

"Well, what are we gonna do now?" Malcolm asked. "I'm sure we don't want to make Sir Gregory's night bad. We already had one so..."

"Maybe we could just talk to him tomorrow," Lockey said. "And we don't have to keep this from him. In fact, he was the one who told us to go there so it wasn't our fault."

"You're right," Simon agreed, nodding his head. "Come on, let's get this thing done in the morning. We'll just let it go for the night..."

Lockey took a deep breath and let it go. Once he got a hold of himself, he excused himself to go back to his room. As he left their room and walked down the hallway to his room, Lockey was wondering if they were right about it. His hands were inside his pocket while his head was being flown into a sea of thoughts.
