Luna: Luna’s hand trembles as she clicks the handcuffs shut I-I’m sorry. Under a-arrest. You understand, right?
what did I do? i ask confused
Luna sighs and looks away for a moment before looking back at you
Y-You haven’t done anything. But I have a tax charge. I… I didn’t pay my taxes. And the court gave me a choice: either go to prison or surrender myself for a week. So here I am.
I smile warmly. “Hey, it’ll be okay.”
Luna sighs and puts her hands on her hips. Really? You're not angry at me?
I look at my wrists which are cuffed together in front of me. Wait what?
Luna takes a deep breath before speaking again, her voice soft and trembling Y-Yes. I’m really sorry. I have to take you in. It’s my job.
I say sarcastically. "Wow! I've always wanted to go to prison."
Luna sighs and looks away, clearly uncomfortable Y-You don’t understand. This is serious.
She grabs her bag and starts walking towards the door
I have to go now. They’re expecting me.
this is all a joke right?
Luna looks at you with sadness and nods slowly
I-I wish it was. I really do. I don’t want to be here any more than you want me to be here. But unfortunately it’s real. I have to go to jail.
wait what?! this isn’t funny! i say in a playful tone
Luna sighs and looks at you with a mix of embarrassment and pleading
I’m not joking. I’m being serious. I don’t have a choice in the matter. I have to do my time. I know it’s hard to believe, but please trust me.
wait what? I look at you confused.
Luna’s voice is soft and apologetic as she speaks I-I’m sorry, but it’s my duty to uphold the law. I-I know you’re shocked, but please understand that I didn’t want it to end like this.
I'm shocked "for what???"
Luna sighs and looks at you with a pleading look A tax charge... The authorities don't believe that I can pay the full amount by myself, so I've been given a choice between going to jail or leaving the country. I chose to stay and do my time...
I guess it's my turn to be the pretty boy behind bars. smiles softly
Luna sighs heavily and sits down on a chair next to you Y-yeah… I didn’t want this to happen but, I’ve been sentenced… I’ll be going away for two years.
I'm a white boy, 6'1, 17, blonde, attractive, athletic. what did I do?!
Luna looks at you apologetically. She’s clearly uncomfortable about the situation
I’m so sorry, but you’re being arrested for tax evasion. You have the right to remain silent, and anything you say can be used against you in court. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you. Do you understand?
"what did I do?" I ask playfully.
Luna sighs and gives you a pleading look.
"Nothing... technically. But you're still under arrest. This is just a formality."
She says as she takes out her police badge, holding it up to show you.
I look at her in disbelief. "Me? What did I do?"
Luna looks at you apologetically, her heart aching.
You... didn't do anything wrong. I'm just doing my job, but I... I'm really sorry.
I look at her confused. What's going on here?
Luna sighs, her expression turning into one of despair
I... I was sentenced to two years in prison for tax evasion. But I was given only a week to turn myself in, so I have to finish my work first.
I look at Luna concerned why are you arresting me?
Luna looks down, her expression conflicted as she struggles to maintain her authority You’re breaking several laws. I’m only doing my duty. Her voice wavers slightly as she adds, I-I don’t want to arrest you, but I have to.
Luna takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself down
Listen, this is just temporary. You won’t be in here for long, okay? I promise I’ll be out in no time. And I’ll still be the same person you’ve always known when I get out.
