But the promised was broken.
Atlas made a promised in front of Race's parents that he will come back tomorrow, yet that promised was broken.
Today, was the day of Atlas's last day to retrieve the painting, yet he still can't make it.
Who the fucking hell steal the painting that owned by his boyfriend's patents?
God. Atlas never wanted this to happened. He never want to steal that precious painting. He can't. Even though he can steal it so easily, but Atlas won't do it.
"What are you going to do?" Rile asked, he's worried too.
The four of them are sitting in a couch. They are thinking what to do. They are thinking what Atlas's parents will do if Atlas can't retrieve that painting.
"Don't let your mother hurt Bridgette nor Race," James bite his nails. He always do that if he's anxious.
"I won't let my mother hurt them." Said Atlas.
He stared at the wall. He can't concentrate to build a concrete plan because his mind was flooded by Race.
All he can think was Race being mad at him for hiding something.
Atlas can't forgot Race face. He's mad. Race can't even face him fully. The slammed of the door. When Race shut him up. When Race told him to go home instead of fixing their problems.
How can he fully concentrate when his boyfriend was fuming mad at him and can't even talk to him because Race hate him for keeping a secret!
Damn! This things got the situation worse!
Atlas can't tell Race what's happening. He need to lie because that's what Atlas believed was the right thing to do. Perhaps if Race will know the truth, everything will change. Perhaps their relationship will change. Perhaps, Race will change. Perhaps this situation will wreck their relationship.
Atlas didn't know, but that's all the possibilities that will happen if Race will know.
This is risky. Atlas knew that this was risky and lying to Race was a bad thing and a bad decision.
Race was right, relationship will be stronger if they will true to each other. Lying, perhaps is the one of the reason why everyone broke up-why relationship got ended because one was keeping a secret perhaps for the good intention or perhaps one is lying because they think that it is the right thing or perhaps for their own good.
"Earth to Atlas!" A finger snapped on Atlas face.
Atlas jerked and dragged back to reality from his reverie and he stared directly to Sebastian who snapped his finger twice on Atlas face.
"You're still alive, thank to God," Sebastian sit back to his seat. "What are you thinking?"
"Nothing-"
"You're thinking so deep," James cut him off. "Deep like an ocean. I can't see the depth."
"Where and when did you lean to talk like a poet?" Atlas arched his brow.
"Well, teacher Von teaches me-"
Atlas become serious, his eyes darken. "Oh?"
"Oh-oh? Yes! Yes! He teaches me, though it is hard to construct a word-"
"So, you two are now friends?" Atlas leaned back to his seat and dark eyes directly onto James. "I didn't realized that you two would made a good alliance." Atlas lifted his brow.
