Dumbfounded

"ARIEL ... ARE YOU THERE? OPEN THE DOOR!" Ariel jolted in his position when he overheard someone shouted in front of his house. He widened his eyes and turned his head to see the bedroom's door as well as Marcella. She still on her duvet, covering her naked body sitting on the bed.

"Who's that?" Marcella asked with her puzzled look, then Ariel gaped upon her and grinned. He felt so worried right now. He just admitted that he was not Artemis, and now the real one just showed up on his front door.

"I think that is Artemis!" Ariel sighed in defeat and scratched his a bit messy hair in disarray. Marcella still couldn't digest any information she just had right now.

"But ... you are ..."

"I'm not Artemis. I am ..." Ariel could not court her to avoid the anger that probably came in a minute. He has to get the door opened before Artemis broke it down. Marcella remained silent in her place, staring at him, petrified.

"ARIEL ... I SAW YOUR BIKE. I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE!" Artemis roared more from the outside. Ariel sighed frustratingly and rubbed his forehead.

"I'll come back later. Just stay a while, or you can clean yourself. It's fine. I'll take care of it!" Ariel licked his lips staring at Marcella's petite figure for a while. He took his shirt on the closet and wore it while leaving the room.

"Taking care of what?" Marcella muttered unintentionally. But she could wait for him by cleaning herself then put her clothes on.

After stepping down the stairs, Ariel was walking faster to the door and opened it. Artemis opened his eyes to see his best friend was safe and sound.

"Oh, Buddy! I thought I lost you!" Artemis hugged him abruptly in front of the door. Ariel was wasted. He scrunched his forehead in confusion. What the hell is happening?

"What are you doing? Why do you hug me?" Ariel pulled Artemis's clasp away from him.

"I was looking for you the entire night. Where have you been?" Artemis exclaimed, half frustrating, half yelling to his friend. But before Ariel wanted to utter anything, Artemis was pushed aside by a girl. Ariel widened his eyes so big that they almost popped out of his skull didn't hold them.

"Where is my sister?" Miraya questioned him right on the spot. Ariel pointed dumbfounded in front of her nose, then slowly frowned his forehead. Miraya did not, as a stranger told her like that, so she brushed the finger aside of her.

"Do not point me like that! And I'm asking you a question!" Ariel still on his statue motion. He did not speak any words at all. Artemis was disturbed by Miraya's hard act against Ariel, so he shoved her back and switched to stand in front of him.

"You don't hurt, do you?" he questioned worriedly. Miraya saw him with the cringy gaze and scoffed mockingly.

"Are you gay?" Artemis turned his head, glaring at her, but Miraya did not care. She finally breached in to find Marcella.

"Move!" Miraya got inside and started to shout Marcella's name.

"BABY ... MARCELLA!" Miraya shouted while walking wandering inside the house. Ariel and Artemis straightly followed her inside to prevent something terrible that might happen.

"MARCELLA!" Miraya thought to get upstairs once she found one.

"Hey ... you can't get up there!" Ariel yelled at her directly. Miraya stopped on the first step of the stairs then turned to Ariel.

Ariel walked enraged to her and stood on a few steps of the stairs.

"You can't get up there! That's my privacy!" Ariel warned in his awkward expression towards Miraya. Miraya scowled at him and wanted to push him aside. But before it happened, Marcella showed herself up.

"Baby!" Miraya shrieked after seeing her. Marcella walked faster down the stairs to get to her. And the odd moment happened in front of Ariel and Artemis.

Miraya couldn't coupe herself to embrace Marcella. Meanwhile, the boys were astonishment staring at them.

"So you are twins?" yelled Artemis with his widened incredible cast. Ariel also has the same look, even opened his mouth to the extent that a fly could slip in.

Miraya only took glimpsed at Artemis without answering his question. She was busy with Marcella and worried her more.

"Are you okay? What happened? How could you be here?" Miraya uttered few questions ahead. Marcella glanced at Ariel's anxious look then gazed at Miraya with a smile.

"I'm fine. Last night, I fell asleep, and he brought me here to rest," Marcella explained with her selected information so none would be suspicious. She couldn't say anything about the intercourse yet. It was too risky to be claimed right now. Both Ariel and Marcella must discuss it privately.

At the same time, Artemis did not feel sentimental about the situation. He came forward to interrupt the twin's heartwarming meeting on his sight.

"You didn't tell me that you are twins!" Artemis blurted to Miraya.

"Why should I tell you? I don't have a duty to do so!" Miraya replied curtly to him. Artemis clenched his jaw and glared at her.

"It means that you are the real imposter here. You switched places to your twins to trick both my friend and me!" he raged on her in front of astonishing Marcella.

"Who are you?" Marcella gently asked Artemis, who was still talking to Miraya. He turned his face to look at her. For an unknown reason, Artemis felt warmed on his heart.

Then Ariel took his step to them to middle the problem.

"I think that all of us need to discuss this right now!" Ariel demanded a discussion among them shortly. There should be an explanation of how this chaos could happen.

Miraya turned to Artemis and flipped her arms on the chest as if she dared him. Meanwhile, Artemis also did the same way, but he put both his hands on the waist.

"I think he's right, and we need to talk!" Marcella tried to lower the tension between her twin's sister with the real Artemis.

"Let's have a seat and talk then!" Ariel added, then gave a gap between him and Artemis so Marcella could walk through them and sat on the couch.

Marcella made her first move to sit, and Ariel was the second. But both Miraya and Artemis were still on their staring contest and snubbed the discussion's idea.
