What happened last Friday was still the hot topic at school when I got in on Monday. The moment I step off my car, I drove the blue Jaguar since my Porsche was confiscated, some of my teammates instantly flocked on my side to ask questions.

"Is it true, Blu and AnneMarie were suspended?" Ricky asked.

"Yes."

"But you came out of it scratched free," Tim looked at me critically.

"My car was confiscated as a punishment," I said. "I've driven a different car, in case you guys didn't you notice?"

My teammates eyed the blue Jaguar and they groaned in collective dismay.

"That car doesn't look like a punishment at all," Gabe scowled. "Your Uncle should have taken your car all together,"

I shrugged, "Not my fault if my Uncle doesn't want me to commute." I said. My Uncle knows I would rather walk from our home to school than squeeze inside a crowded bus or jeep with strangers.

Soon, our team dispersed to get to our respective classrooms.

"So what will happen now?" Tim asked while he, Xavier and I walked to our room. "To Blu and AnneMarie?"

"They'll serve their suspension and come back," I said.

"That's it?" Xavier looked disappointed.

"Of course that's not it. They have issues they need to tackle but they will tackle them privately without our interference. When did all of you become gossipmongering fishwives?" I askes irritably as the three of us stopped by the door of our classroom.

"Not gossiping. I think that's unfair, the punishment given to them while you got away without any," Tim said before going inside to sit on his chair. I looked questioningly at Xavier who shrugged at me. "I agree with Tim,"

"So you want me to also be suspended? Like Blu and AnneMarie..."

"Or they should lower their punishment. Two weeks is too much. It's not like they hurt anyone." Xavier said as he sat on his chair.

I sat on mine just as our teacher arrives to start the lesson. I turned my focus on studying and listening. Every now and them, I will check my phone to see if Blu is messaging me.

It was futile exercise. My phone didn't receive any message from him. What a lousy boyfriend. Should I message him first? I wonder what Blu is doing in the penthouse right now.

(BLU)

I stood frozen on my feet while I stared almost unblinkingly at the scene on the penthouse's living room. I am standing by the aquarium Robin gave to me. My muscles started protesting from being frozen but I couldn't move. My mind is screaming for us to move but my body won't follow.

I'm scared. My eyes is the only part of me that could still freely move. Even my heart, I feel like it's beat is being timed.

I swallowed hard. "M-mr. G-gilbert..." I called for one of my guardian.

"Just stay there Blu," Mr.Gilbert tried giving me a reassuring smile. "Just stay there and don't be scared. It'll be fine..."

Are you sure?

I want to ask that to Mr.Gilbert but I am scared that I make an unnecessary movement or sound, Mr.Gilbert will get hurt.

He is kneeling on the living room's carpeted floor. Kneeling in front of a strict looking man that looks undeceivingly like my other guardian, Mr.Akage.
