MARLON

Luther's phone call has caused something to settle in the pit of my stomach.

I somehow knew that something was up with Bernice, but I sure as hell didn't even consider the fact that she would do something as wicked as this.

Collins’ entire family has turned on him, even though they are very willing to pay the legal fees to clear their family name.

He has insisted over and over again, but no one believed him totally, not even me.

I refused to speak to him, to give him a chance to e

    113. MARLON "Really, Marlon? You told the police to track my phone from the day of the shooting?!" The caller's number is hidden, but it's Bernice's voice I hear. That shouldn't be, because I have blocked every access she is supposed to have with him. "Don't be mute out of shock, Marlon. You fucking blocked me!" She yells at the other end. Luther's curious eyes are blinking at me, and that's when I know that I don't want to do this in front of him. I raise my eyebrow at him before walking out through the door, heading to my car. "I thought blocking you would send a message, Bernice. Clearing your can't read cues." "Do you hate me that much, Marlon?" Her tone has dropped a few notches, but I am not going to be fooled by that. "You personally told Calvin to tell the Chief to track my phone!" "I don't why you are honestly getting worked up over this, Bernice. If you weren't in Pensville yesterday, if you didn't shoot my friend, then you have nothing to worry about." I tell her wi

    112. LUTHER We abandon the dishes and go to Rob's room to find the receipt. The place is an eyesore, Rob seems to prefer the floor than the closet for his clothes, but after digging for a hot minute, we get what we want. I cross-check to make sure that everything is correct. Time is his biggest alibi. He was in the store about twenty minutes before Bernice shot Abigail, except he can get to Pensville in twenty minutes, he is completely innocent. "What now?" Nola folds her hands. "Do we call the police?" "Not yet, I don't know who to trust and who not to," I murmur, taking out my phone. "I have someone else in mind." "Who?" She presses. "Don't worry about it, Nola," I wave her away, and she scoffs like an annoyed little sister. I don't want her finding out about Marlon and I. We have been seen around too much, it's beyond risky at this point. When I dial his line, it rings for a while before he picks up. "Yeah, Luther." He sounds bored. "So, I'm at the Langmores house, and

    111. LUTHER The attack on Abigail Fleming, who most of my classmates know very well, has been all everyone is talking about. As for me, I pretend not to be so interested in the topic as I bury my nose into giant books in the library, but all I can really think of is Rob Langmore. It's not right what's happening to him, and I feel so tied because Marlon won't allow me to get anymore involved. "Heard that Steve Langmore is also in jail. He assaulted an officer, so they are going to keep him for the next three days." Two gossipping girls whisper in the library. I'm just a few tables away, but I'm hearing everything so loud and clear. It's so distracting, so loud, that I don't know when my pen snap in my hand. The crunch sound makes everyone turn around to look at me, and I almost wish I can disappear because of the embarrassment. It's just noon, and that means that I have two more classes, but they are skippable ones. So, I pack all of my stuff and head directly to the parking

    110. MARLONThe next day I wake up feeling so miserable because I didn't even sleep a wink. Luckily, there is enough warm coffee to help me feel a little less awful. Maybelline is in her nurse uniform in the kitchen, and she comes to feel my forehead. "Ill?" She frowns. "Nah, it's just lack of sleep," I shake my head. "What? Why? I heard that the shooter has been caught." "Really?" Janae looks up. "That's very good news." I want to tell them that it's not true, that Rob is not the one who tried to kill my friend, but the words are too heavy for me to spill out. But I just empty my cup of coffee and tell both women goodbye. I have to head to the police station before heading to school. I needed an excuse to see what's happening there, and fortunately for me, my father asked me to take some documents to Chief Tatum a while ago. Good thing I remember now. When I get to the police station, the place is flooded with cars, even though it's not even seven o'clock yet. I don't ne

    109. LUTHER She asked Rob to kill someone for her, and at that time, I didn't know that she was talking about Abigail, I thought it was just one of her mad ramblings. Ron refused, and she went ahead to try to do it herself, but she failed, and as usual, everyone else gotta pay for it, except for Bernice. "Hey, I said let go of my brother!" Before anyone can say jack, Steve Langmore gives a heavy punch to one of the police officers and in the midst of yells, he gets pushed to the ground, and he is then handcuffed too. "What's wrong with your brother? We can throw both of you in jail!!" "Fuck off!" Steve curses, struggling all the way till he gets pushed into the building. Rob is more calm, but I can see the tension in his jaw, and the stiffness in his shoulder. He keeps shrugging off anyone who puts a hand on his shoulder. He stops for a second when he notices me, and God, my heart squeezes when we clock eyes. "Keep moving, Rob Langmore. Don't make things harder than they alre

    108. LUTHER This is it, this is the end of my life. I thought that I knew the end of Bernice's evil, but here we are. I feel my legs go so weak that I have to take a few steps back to steady myself. My hand goes over my mouth as I feel my breathing becoming uneven. It's like I'm going to drop to the ground, passing out. The Officer notices this, and he takes a step in my direction. "Luther, are you good?" "She's lying." Marlon says. "I don't know what she is saying in there, but she is lying!" Calvin puts his hands on his hips as a laborious heave leaves his lips. "Look, Marlon, I know that everyone has their reservations about the girl and her mother, especially students from Densberry High." "Whatever hate she gets, trust me, she deserves it. She breathes lies every single day of her life," Marlon adds. "Where is the Chief, it's him I need to speak to." Calvin runs his fingers through his hair. "Then maybe you will have to come back, Marlon. As soon as he heard what she had

    88. LUTHER I end the call and toss my phone to the bed, like it has suddenly turned into a red-hot brick. My heart is thumping like a drum, and I think I'm going to pass out on the ground. Surely I didn't hear him properly. Boyfriend? Is he pulling my legs? Just as fast as I threw the phone aw

    84. LUTHER Jamsberry Street. When I told my mother that I've gotten a job being a tutor for a fourteen year old, she didn't mind. I'm already fine now, the doctor confirmed it, so a little hard work won't hurt me. But then she choked on her coffee and asked if I was crashing when I told her th

    80. MARLON It's a breezy night when we finally get on the plane to go back to Densberry. It still feels surreal to me, like it's all a terrible dream, and I'm going to wake up from it soon. At least I've not fucked anymore. Who would have known that Oskar was such an asshole that even his wife d

    LUTHER My stomach churn every time I remember that I was in such close contact with death. Coach told me everything. How Marlon didn't hesitate to jump into the water to save me, and most especially, the look of the devil in his eyes when he held Oskar Wallin under water. My hands still feel nu
