Lisa was baffled as to why her thoughts hadn't even wandered to the window until now, but she doesn't seem to care.
After walking to the window and quietly sliding it open, she carefully climbed out of her room, taking care not to break her legs in the process.She sighed deeply as she gazed at the window of her room, attempting to reason with Summer, but no matter how hard she tried, she knew she needed some answers.After giving her room window one last look, she walked to the road, trying not to be seen by Summer, and attempted to hail a cab, but was unsuccessful."Damn!" She swore, trying to remember what time it was because it was already dark outside.She groaned deeply, knowing she couldn't afford to wait till tomorrow for her answers, and she made the decision to walk down to his house.≈Summer headed into Lisa's room an hour later, hoping to find her asleep, but when she found it vacant and saw her window wide open, she sighed loudlTen years agoRicardo Kincaid was awakened by the sound of the police siren blaring in his head. He unconsciously tried to use his hand to find a pillow to cover his ears from the unpleasant noises, but his hand felt heavy, and as a result, he gave up trying.All of a sudden, he heard a man speaking through a megaphone, but he couldn't make out what the man was saying at the time. He tried to open his eyes and stand up, but he was unable to do so. It appeared as though his body had a will of its own.The man kept talking and talking, and after a minute, the man stopped talking, and Ricardo could hear the sound of someone trying to break down his door.He thought to himself, "Ellen," and tried to getup, but he couldn't. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get up.He tried to say "Ellen," but he couldn't get his mouth to open. His brows unwittingly knotted together in frustration because he wanted to protect his fiancée and their
Ricardo was still having trouble believing what was happening to him. He was responsible for the deaths of his fiancee and their unborn child. What was he thinking when he did it?His heartbeat was pounding so loudly that he was certain the police officers who were sitting by his sides could hear it.Ricardo was sweating profusely despite the fact that it was a really chilly night outside.When he observed that the cars had come to a complete halt, he looked around to see what was going on. Before he could open his mouth and ask one of the police officers who were standing by his side what was going on, both of them opened their doors and stepped out and one of themhauled himout of the car.Ricardo took a quick glance of his surroundings and realized how serious the situation was. They were in front of the police station, and more than twenty officers were keeping a close eye on him. He was being treated as if he was a dangerous animal that could atta
The door to his cell was opened around ten hours later, and he was escorted out of his cell and into the parloir, where his father and step mother were waiting for him.When he saw his father, he shouted out, "Dad," and dashed over to where they were sitting. He sat across from them, tears streaming down his cheeks uncontrollably from his eyes."Is it true?" His stepmother asked, her voice filled with concern.In response, he vigorously shook his head."We have just finished talking to Kim," his father said, his voice breaking with sadness.Kim was the name of the gatekeeper who had been present when the incident occurred."What did he tell you?" Ricardo questioned, his voice full of curiosity."That he heard screaming coming out of your apartment," his father said."Dad, believe me, I didn't do it.""I'm trying to...""Dad..." he cried out. "You know I wouldn't kill Ellen, don't you?'"The police saw the knife in your hand," hi
Becky Kincaid arrived at the car before her husband, who was still talking with one of the police officers, and she took the opportunity to explain to Susan Kincaid, her daughter, what had happened between Ricardo and his father.Susan had wanted to follow them to meet him, but her father, Desmond Kincaid, had advised her to stay behind and let him and his wife handle the situation."Are you serious?" She said angrily."Calm down, Susan," her mother reassured her, "all will be okay.""Please, Mom, stop from telling me to calm down. My brother is in prison, and you're telling me to calm down "She said and moved closer to the car door."And where do you think you're going?" Her mother asked, raising an eyebrow."Inside," she replied. "I'd like to meet him. I'd like to hear his side of the story.""But... your father will not approve of this.""I don't care," she said, getting out of the car.After introducing herself to the officers in char
A few months later, Ricardo was taken before the court in chains around both his hands and legs, and all eyes were immediately drawn to him the instant he stepped foot into the courtroom.He took a quick look around the court to make a mental note of everyone who was present. He noticed Ellen's parents and siblings on one side of the court and immediately turned his gaze away from them to avoid looking at them.He had made up his mind to never see them again after the incident because he had no idea what to say to them, especially Ellen's mother.Ellen's mother had gone to the police station on numerous occasions to speak with him, but Ricardo had politely declined each and every time by failing to appear in person.He looked to the other side of the court and saw his family sitting there. Susan, his father, and his stepmother were all seated together. Susan waved at him with a reassuring grin, and he attempted to reciprocate, but he couldn't, so he turned away f
RecentRicardo locked his blue gaze on Lisa, expecting her to say anything.Lisa pushed herself to her feet and approached him. She clasped his hands in hers and said. "I believe what you're saying. I believe what you've told me, and I'm not intimidated by you.""Lisa." He called quietly, finding it difficult to believe that Lisa wasn't on her way out of his house, cursing at him."I know you won't hurt me because I believe you didn't hurt Ellen.""Lisa.""Stop hiding your true self from the world. I'd like to get to know the real you."Ricardo let out a sigh."And I love you as well." Lisa continued and then placed her lips on his.Ricardo pulled back and looked her in the eyes. "Are you sure?""I've never been more certain of anything else in my life. Ricardo, please turn me into a woman." She replied, her lips colliding with his.Ricardo kissed her back and drew her closer to him, groaning into her mouth."Please turn me
On the following morning, Lisa was greeted by the smells of fried rice and crispy chicken. Ricardo was holding a platter of fried rice and chicken and a bottle of soda as she sluggishly rose up on the bed and stretched herself. Her jaw dropped wide in surprise as her eyes landed on the smiling Ricardo holding the tray and soda bottle."Good morning, love," Ricardo said as he placed the breakfast in front of her. "How was your night?"Lisa's face was flushed with confusion as she gazed at Ricardo. This beautiful and handsome man with blue eyes was beaming at her in place of the Ricardo she met that night at the club."What are you doing?" She asked."I'm bringing you breakfast in bed." He replied as he sat on the edge of the bed, facing her."But, you've never done anything like that before.""Well, I'm doing it right now." Shrugging his shoulders and chewing his bottom lip, he muttered. "You said that you trusted me and that you loved me." He added in a
Lisa found it hard to imagine that Susan Kincaid, the lovely young woman whose hair usually got blown by the air and who have always worries about Ricardo's activity could be the killer or the one who may have arranged the death. What could possibly have motivated her to do such a thing?Lisa gently close her mouth, the shock fading off and asked. "But for what reason?""We're only making a guess." Ricardo replied in practically a whisper."We?" Lisa asked with confusion etched on her face.Ricardo nodded. "We. My private investigator and I.""You have a private investigator?" Lisa asked, more amazed than shocked.Ricardo nodded and then sighed a heavy sigh. "We've been going over this for years but it's merely our assumption. We don't have any evidence.""So, what is this assumption? What makes her the most plausible suspect?""Because she is my half-sister. She is the only one who has a reasonable motive to hurt me, the only one who has a go
