Chapter 13

As they came closer, Michael thought - "Why is Johnathan Molly so afraid of his own wife? He can out-argue almost anybody. What so special about her?". This is when Alice knocked on the door. It was a rectangular door with a window in it. All corners were rounded. The door sat deep in the wall and it's rim was made of rubber, so not to let the air out.

Johnathan hid away from the door. Giving Newt into Michael's hands. Michael saw fear on Johnathan's face. For a second, Michael thought that he also doesn't really want to get into there. But Alice and Frank were quite calm, so there was perhaps nothing to worry about after all.

"Who's that?" - screamed a female voice from within. Alice said - "Mom, it's Alice.". For about half a minute nothing happened. They just stood there and waited any response. Michael was fidgeting with Newt's shirt. Newt was looking at him careless of what's going on. Then there was a sound of un-hatching. It was the inner door. A face appeared in the window of the door, where they stood. It was her. Melisa Jessica Denbrook. Melisa put on a mask, similar to theirs, but with a different design. Then the front door moved slightly, holding on a chain.

"What is your name?" - asked Melisa, looking at Alice through the gap. Alice answered - "Alice Denbrook.". The door was closed. Then came a sound of a chain being moved out of the way. And finally the door opened up fully. Melisa now saw Alice, Frank and Michael with Newt. Newt looked round and said - "Mommy." - while stretching her hands toward Melisa. "Who is that?" - she asked of Alice. Alice turned around, to the direction where Melisa is pointing. "This is Michael. I..." - she started, but Melisa was quick to ask - "The Michael?". Alice was not very sure what to answer. Melisa didn't even picked up the phone for more then a little bit. They didn't have time to talk about the name of her boyfriend. Perhaps dad told her.

Johnathan was thinking about her words too. The Michael? He looked at Michael. He thought about Michael's spine device. He jumped out of his hideout. "Hi, Melisa!" - said Johnathan. Melisa stared at him like a predator on prey. "It's my boyfriend." - said Alice - "We came here so you could meet him.". Johnathan was thinking about something to say. Melisa didn't notice a word of what Alice said. She looked at Johnathan. "Mr. Denbrook, have you come to mind about your stupid name?" - she told him, starring at his eyes the whole time. "Mr. Denbrook?" - though Michael. Johnathan said - "My name is Johnathan Molly and you know why.".

"Well... there will be something to argue about. Come in husband. Come in kids. Come in boyfriend Michael. Get into pressurised atmosphere." - said Melisa. And all of them went inside.

The entrance had two doors. There was an area between the two, where all of them were now crammed. They waited for the entrance door to seal before opening the second door. It was done to keep the air pressure of the house. As they entered a nice feeling came through their bodies as they felt the change of air pressure.

The place was not terrible. It was rather rich looking. Clean. Not something you would expect from a person that was, as Michael thought, always angry. They all sat down to talk.

"Are you all hungry?" - asked Melisa. Michael thought that she was actually rather nice. He didn't quite expect that. "We ate in the morning, Mom." - said Frank. "Well." - said Melisa - "I was just about to start dinner. Join in.".

They all came to the table. It was prepared by a servant robot. It was not humanoid. It had hands-like things, but it moved on special rails in the ceiling. It did not have artificial intelligence. You could talk to it only in predefined commands. "Humbert Dinner" - were the words that Melisa spoke to make the robot prepare the food.

Melisa turned her stare at Michael - "So you are fucking my little girl?" - she said. Michael though that that was what he expected. He said - "Well quite frankly not yet. But we do masturbate.". Melisa said - "Hm... And your name is?". "Michael Herald is my full name." - said Michael. Melisa thrown a serious gaze at Johnathan. Johnathan looked quite surprised. He shrugged. "The Michael!" - said Melisa judgmentally. "I didn't ask his full name." - said Johnathan.

"What do you mean by 'The Michael'?" - said Michael.

"Kids!" - said Johnathan.

"We will have to tell them eventually." - said Melisa.

"Tell us what?" - demanded Michael.

Johnathan looked at Michael - "Did you have a sister?" - he asked. Alice looked around. She said - "Wait, dad. He had a step sister that died. It might be too sad for him...". "Oh god!" - said Johnathan and started feeling all irritated and sad.

"Michael..." - said Melisa - "Was your dead sister's name Molly?". Michael said - "Yes" - almost crying from what ever to come next.

Melisa said - "Johnathan was the driver."

Michael looked at Johnathan that was on the edge of crying too. He looked at Alice that shrugged, because nobody told them anything about it. Michael thought, how could it be. Was Johnathan the driver that killed Molly?

Melisa continued - "He had a tremendous guilt for killing the little girl. And for a while he tried to coup with it in normal ways. Like you know, going to a psychologist. But then the house went on sale. The one near where the crash happened. So he moved there. Left this house and took everybody with him. Then he made something outrageous. He changed his name, Johnathan Denbrook, to the name of the dead girl that he had killed. So now he calls himself Johnathan Molly."

Johnathan broke into tears. He looked at Michael and cried - "Sorry, kid... How can I repay myself? I will do anything. Please... I didn't know it was you... Please.".

Alice was lost. Even Frank was lost. Thought for Frank the situation was kind of hilarious. Michael was crying. He wanted to kill this man. But he lived with him. Learned from him. And fell in love with his daughter. For a few seconds Michael looked around. He wanted to find something sharp. Perhaps a knife. But he saw the crying face of Johnathan and realized the utter trauma that Johnathan himself must've gone through. He was not able to do anything.

"Excuse me." - said Michael. He gave Newt to Melisa, put on the mask and went outside. And it was it. Michael found some people that were going back from the asteroid passing, to the area where he lived. He didn't want to see non of the Molly, or is it Denbrook family anymore.
