"No... Yes Glimmer I know..okay I gotta go right now, bye."

Adora clicked her phone and put it away as her and Catra entered the Police Station. As they went to the desk, Adora gave her name to the receptionist. Before the receptionist could speak, an detective came to the desk. "Are you Adora Carrero?" He asked.

"Yes that's me." Adora answered. "Could I have a word in private with you, Ms. Carrero." The detective asked, "I'm Detective Blanc by the way." He took out his hand and Adora shook it. "Sorry, but your friend is going to have to stay here for now."

"This is my wife, actually."

Adora said not noticing her slip up in the heat of things, but Catra, who was turning red, did. "I'll wait here, don't worry." Catra said smiling not bothering to clear Adora's slip up. Adora smiled and murmured an 'okay' as she followed Detective Blanc.

Once they headed to an empty room, they both sat face to face with each other. "Now Ms. Carrero, I know we gave up this investigation many, many years ago...but we had found some items left behind from inside the vehicle." Detective Blanc said as he pulled a small box from under the table. "But..Why contact me now?" Adora cautiously asked.

"We tried contacting you and your guardian but we had no way to reach you." He answered. "But I believe that.." He slowly pushed the box to the blonde, "These items are specifically for you." Adora looked at the box. She has admit...she was terrified. She had no clue of what could be inside this box, but she had to see.

"I'll give you a moment alone." Detective Blanc said as he excused himself from the room. Adora sat in silence, hands shaking as she put her hands on the lid of the box. Then, with all the courage she gained,...

...she removed the lid.

"Yea, just come to the house in like 20 minutes."

Catra was talking on the phone with Entrapta. "Yea look...I know it's bad timing but this is probably the only time we'll be able to do it...Ugh yes! You have to be in the cake." Catra groaned the last part. "Okayyy, but you gotta report back to me when you're close." Entrapta said. "Okay okay, look I'll call you later. Bye." Catra said as they both said 'bye' to each other. Catra sighed as she ran her fingers through her hair, sitting in a chair.

If Catra was honest..she was stressed. Stressed and worried for her fiancé...or wife, as Adora mentioned. Catra smiled at the thought. Wife..it sounded right. Nice ring to it.

"You must be Ms.Carerro, I assume?" A voice said snapping Catra out of her thoughts. Catra looked up to see Detective Blanc smiling at her. "It's actually Ms.Michalka, Adora's my fiancé." Catra stood up as she extended her hand out. Detective Blanc chuckled a bit as he shook her hand, "Ahh, a little slip up I presume?" Catra chuckled too, "I'm guessing."

They laughed a bit but it soon toned down into impatience silence. Catra broke the silence as her expression turned to worried, "I...I know it's none of my business but...is it anything serious we should be worried about?" Detective Blanc shook his head softly as he looked at the woman, "Just a few items we found..thought Ms.Carrero needed to see for herself."
