Chapter 7

Author: Goodtale
It wasn't over.

The day Kelly got out of the hospital, Calvin's parents were waiting outside our apartment complex.

She wore the clothes I'd brought her.

She looked pale and noticeably thinner.

We'd barely reached the entrance when a woman in a floral blouse came charging at us.

Calvin's mom, Emma Tilley.

"My son would never do something like that! Your daughter was the one chasing him!"

Her shrill voice echoed across the entrance.

It was rush hour.

    Sophie's POVA week after the verdict, it was time for Kelly's final test.She got up early and pulled on a light blue shirt she hadn't worn in forever.Her fingers kept slipping on the buttons.I didn't help.She wanted to do it herself.We sat side by side on a hard bench in the hospital hallway, her hands shaking in her lap.I reached over and held one tight."No matter what the result is, I'll be with you for the rest of my life."She looked down at our joined hands and managed a tiny smile.The doctor came out with the report.He looked at Kelly, then handed it over.HIV negative.Kelly gripped the paper and stared at those words.For a long time.Then she slowly crouched on the hospital floor and buried her face in her knees.Her shoulders started shaking.Then her whole body did.And finally, all the sobs she'd been holding back broke loose.I crouched beside her and pulled her into a hug.Our faces pressed together, tears soaking the report until the paper w

    Third-Person POVAll seven girls showed up for the trial.No one stepped back.The hallway outside the courtroom was narrow, and they stood there in silence.A girl with short hair started shaking first.Her fingers crushed the subpoena, knuckles turning white.Kelly walked over, gently pulled her hand away from the paper, and held it.The girl looked up, eyes red.Kelly didn't say anything.She just squeezed her hand.Then the bailiff opened the door and called the case number.They went in.The gallery was packed.Reporters raised their cameras, flashes going off at the edges of their vision.When the bailiff brought Calvin in, his orange jumpsuit looked almost filthy under the harsh courtroom lights.He stepped into the defendant's box and scanned the room.His parents.The reporters.The seven girls.Then he dropped his head.The prosecutor stood and began reading the charges.Emma started sobbing from the gallery before he even finished the first one.Intenti

  • Sis, Your Crush Is a Felony   Chapter 8

    The police kept finding more on Calvin's phone.Group chats.Money transfers.Methods they'd shared.Every step was mapped out like some sick playbook.What kind of girls to target. How to win their trust. What drug to use on the first date. How to ghost them afterward so they'd walk away on their own.They called it the "Hunting Manual."I couldn't tell the police how I knew about the other three guys.But in the case file from my last life, I'd seen three names.Their usernames.The areas they operated in.So I kept it simple.I told the officers I'd seen similar tactics online.Calvin wasn't the only one active in that group.They needed to look into the three most active members.The police followed the lead.Within ten days, all three were arrested.One was in another state.The other two were in a nearby city.I watched the arrest footage.One of them was still yelling, "Why are you arresting me?" as officers pinned him to the ground.Then an officer read the

Your daughter was the one chasing him!"Her shrill voice echoed across the entrance.It was rush hour.Neighbors walking dogs, picking up their kids, or hauling groceries all stopped to stare.Kelly stood beside me, pale as a ghost, her lips trembling.Emma only got louder, jabbing a finger inches from Kelly's face. "My son wouldn't hurt a fly! How could he do something like this?"She chased him, got rejected, then made the whole thing up!"I stepped in front of Kelly."Mrs. Tilley."Your son bragged in a group chat about how many girls he'd lied to. I already gave the messages to the police."Want me to read them out loud?"

    The police started digging through Calvin's phone.I told them I didn't think Kelly was his only victim.My voice stayed calm.My palms were soaked.I couldn't tell them I'd already read his case file.Couldn't tell them I knew what happened in another life.So I called it a suspicion.A guess.A gut feeling.And somehow, that was enough.The tech unit opened his social media apps.One group chat was pinned at the top.Sunshine Support Group.Green tree icon.The first message was from Calvin, sent three weeks ago.[She's had a crush on me for seven years. Super innocent. Never even held hands with anyone.][Lost over forty-five pounds just to get me. Sweet, right?]Someone replied:[Nice, bro.]Farther down:[Can't wait for the good news.]Then:[Share afterward. Same rules as always.]The officer going through the messages stopped.He looked at his partner.Both their faces went grim.That same day, the case blew wide open.The department formed a special t

    Kelly woke up at three in the morning.I was slumped beside her bed, still gripping the edge of her blanket.The second her fingers twitched, I jerked upright, my eyes stinging."Sophie...?"Her voice came out rough and weak.I poured her a glass of water. Her hand shook as she took it.The female officer stepped closer, her voice gentle but firm. "Ms. Sutton, your test results came back. We found a sedative in your system."You were drugged."The glass almost slipped from Kelly's hand.Her lips trembled before she finally got the words out. "No... that's impossible. He wouldn't do that."Calvin wouldn't! There has to be some mistake."She grabbed my arm. "Sophie, tell them. Tell them this has to be a mistake."I gripped her hand so hard my knuckles hurt. "He would!"Kelly, think about it."That drink he opened for you—you got dizzy after you drank it, right?"Think."Kelly stared at me, something breaking in her eyes.After a long silence, she whispered, "How did you
