CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR
"You are under arrest for the---"
She did not let the detective finish, she interrupted
"What? What are they talking about? I didn't do anything" she defended. I noticed she was trembling inside. I stood aside to observe the scene.
"I'm sorry ma'am. We have the footage of the day Mister Walter was stabbed. You were found around the premises. May I know what was your business there?" the male detective asked bolding.
"Well.. Well it's a social gathering, isn't it? Do I have to explain why I was in a recreational center at a particular time or date having fun?" she arrogantly said.
"Yes, I called her after I sent for an ambulance. She must have arrived late" I defended.
"Stay out of this Emily.. " Selena whispered with jammed teeth.
"Oh, you think so? Your friend was there at exactly 46minutes at your arrival.

Du-dum.... du-dum.... my heart skipped a beat as the detective banged her fist on the desk. "Answer me!" she yelled. I quickly stretched my neck to see what was going on inside the interrogation room through the transparent glass shield. I could feel Amanda's heart racing. With a teary eye, her pupils dilate. "I don't know" she said in a hoarse voice.I hallucinated for a while.The walls of the interrogation room was provided with high degree of sound proof. The doors were windowless and flush metal with solid core. I could only imagine what Amanda was going through in there. I wailed inside of me "Get me outta here". I don't want to be here...

Brrrrt..... Brrrrrrrt.....My eyelids flickered, and my fingers scratching on my neck as I moved my tongue in my mouth to feel my taste buds. I glimpsed a figure standing in front of me as the phone vibrates in his back pocket. Then I blinked twice to clear my blurry vision. The young man shoved his hand in his back pocket, stared at his phone in a jiffy and swiped to receive call. "yes, yes... Okay" he answered expressing consent then he hung up the phone.I turned wittingly to check if Candice was still here. Poor girl was already meditating with her eyelids twitching as tears swam down one cheek. We were unprepared for the apparition that confronted us.As I observed all activities for a while, my mind exerts a phantasmagoric pull. I noticed an officer struggling with the touch pad mouse. The effect was an oneiric blend on his computer screen that moved me to Alvin a

It was a Sunday morning. I heard a loud knock on the door. My eyes slowly fluttered open. I started to wriggle and stretch with my cozy, haven that is my bed. As parts of my body were gradually turning on. I glanced at the wall clock which says 7:05am. Getting out of bed, walking slowly towards the door and rubbing the sleep out of my eyes, I twisted the door knob and pulled it. It was my crazy sister. She had just start to get on my nerve this early morning."mommy said you should get ready for church if you don't want the devil to use you this morning" she frowns.Sigh.. I shot the door against her. I went into the bathroom naked with a MP player to take my bath. I played loud RnB music alongside doing a concert with my toothbrush as the microphone. I thought I heard my name. Promptly, I tuned down the volume and did not hear anything. Oh well.. I increased the volume again dancing and singing along with my toot

I got home from church. The thick, burnt smell of fried chicken tickled the tip of my nose just seconds after my tummy rumbled. I pressed my hand on my stomach to calm the boys fighting inside. All the gnawing pangs of hunger returned tenfold. Food was the only disc playing in my mind. Without settling first in my room, I dashed into the kitchen and dished out a plate of jellof rice from the pot. I rushed my food and cracked the chicken bones, not pardoning a piece.After doing the dishes, I went to my room to change my outfit to a casual wear. I opened the door, letting out a moan in astonishment "Oh no.. ". It was messy. I frowned as I grumpily picked up every cloth on my bed and folded it back into my box.Finally my room was tidy. I got bored and took a quick stroll around the neighborhood.I live with my family in a 90-square-meter spacious, four- bedroom apartment with a fascinating view of a rose

"Miss, come with us" a police officer tapped me on my shoulder.I got up from the chair with zero courage. As I walked to the interrogation room with two police officers escorting me, I bumped into Amanda and we made eye contact. I saw hatred written in her eyes. Nevertheless, I ignored and entered the interrogation room seated with two detectives, a mid-aged female and a gentleman in his late 50's.It was a small room with only three chairs, two for the detectives and I guess the other is for me. A recorder, an handcuff and an empty glass turned upside-down on a saucer is on the desk. There is a water dispenser at the corner of the room. I noticed a one-way mirror with nothing on the walls. I cannot see outside through the mirror but when I was seated outside, I could see Amanda inside with the detectives and some other police officers standing at the glass shield, observing the process from outside

Interesting" the female detective said as she relaxed her back on her chair, showing interest.One day, he called me over to his place. I had to plan my outfit overnight.

He comes online once in a while to update his profile and post pictures of him with school mates. I wonder why he leaves my text messages on read.
