36-Dead Ends And A Jealous Criminal
Movie night went incredibly well.
If ending up with Dwyer's fingers deep inside of me counts as a successful and helping step towards getting a hang of the shit going on around me. I knew there would be side distractions from all that I had planned out but what I didn’t realize was that Dwyer himself would be the first and most dangerous distraction to finding evidences that point to him and solving this crime myself. I was only a few days into it and I getting mixed feelings from everything going on around me.
The plan and steps were simple and jotted down somewhere in my notepad so I could remind myself daily of the things I had to do.
- A) Get to know Dwyer.
This was the most important part of everything but just halfway into it and it feels like I was failing woefully. I have only been able to gather a few things about him. That is a few things he was only willing to let out. Dwyer was clo

"Let's go over the rules one last time" Rules. The one thing I hated about playing that damned game of twenty questions. I should have known that it was too good to be true when he made the call himself. For a split moment after he said that to stop me from stumping past him, the tiny voices in my head warned me that he only said that because of the words I said to him and mostly because of his unlike for the detective. It was like something he'd said on impulse because he couldn’t bare to see me with the detective or lose me to him, as stupid as that sounds though, it had me lured in and accepting of the fact that Dwyer was jealous. It's as clear as crystal that Dwyer only agreed to letting me get to know him using the twenty questions game because he felt like he was losing something or in my case, someone. I should be worried and paying heed to the whirling warning signs in my head but at the same time, it was a

"I'm sorry Charity, I won't be going to the victim's home today. Something came up. We'll go some other time"I think the phrase, shattering of heart is a bit too underrated and considered too literal, used in literary works and in certain kind of situations to prove how pleasant our grasp of good grammar is cause I can testify that my heart practically broke into a million pieces that all the glue in the world wouldn’t even dare put together if they tried as I read through Detective Roman's message that morning.Christ I waited! Eagerly at that.Heck ! I even dreamt of it all night. In my dreams, I saw myself sitting behind my big sandalwood table glazed and shiny with the best of the newest computing inventions in front of me while I type away on my keyboard in a big office, yeah you got it right!

The beautiful scent of brewed coffee dominated the air, effortlessly covering up every other scent that was meant to be in the room. I could feel my insides twist and myself salivate absentmindedly at the thought up sipping my favorite thing ever, the traditional way instead of the usual one from my coffee maker.She said she used to work at a particular café in the town when she was 18 and so when I told her how much I loved caffeine, she was off to her kitchen to put those dusty brewing equipment to work. Her words though, not mine. Her house was perfect and warm, embracing me with the goodness of a home. It was small on the outside but big enough for the little family of three---two now. Framed pictures lined the surfaces of the house. One was a picture of her, smiling brightly in the arms of her now dead husband. And the rest was, well pretty much the same. Her husband and her, on the beach , at a party, was it Halloween? At the hospital with their

When Detective Roman called me the next morning, I was tangled in my sheets, my hair was sprawled all over the bed and I was naked. The first thing I did when my phone blared off the nightstand was reach beside me to feel molds of muscles but my hand only felt the warm sheets of the bed giving away the fact that Dwyer must have left just moments ago. Disappointed, I took my phone off the nightstand and answered the call."Hey, you up?" his familiar smooth voice roused from the other end. "Yeah, courtesy of you" I said almost cringing at my own sleep voice and morning breath. His laughter followed piercing my ears."I'm honored to be the alarm that reminds you that you have to be at work in a few minutes from now". I looked down to see what time it was on my phone and I gasped, jerking off the bed.Shit. I was running late. I rushed off the bed, pulling off the sheets that wrapped around my body

It really was the most beautiful thing ever. I slipped my shoes off my leg, letting my naked feet sink into the cold sand, it sent cold shivers all through my body making me shudder almost immediately but damn! It felt good. The morning air blew past my hair, letting it fall in long locks across my face and sprawl in all directions. The cold air from the crashing and falling waves hit my face with a defined intention causing me close my eyes each time it wheezes past my face. But I couldn’t keep my eyes closed for too long, I had to catch every moment of the beautiful scene before me. Right before my eyes, I watched the sun rise on the sea. If I didn’t know any better or if I was a kid, I would have said it was a huge ball that sank into the sea and rises every morning cause it damn well looks like it. The sun's rays are still a darker shade of yellow but bright enough to leave sparkles of it on the vast sea. The gold specks on the sea m
