What exactly was she on about? I didn't know and I didn't really care. I turned to Theron who had taken his hand away from my face the moment she barged in.

"Stupid lady." I mumbled, but she didn't hear it.

"What are you in about, Cynthia?" Theron sighed, sounding tired.

"He, you, I saw-"

"You saw what exactly?" I asked with a frown.

"You keep your filthy face to yourself, you hear me?" She threatened.

"Cynthia, stop it, I was only helping him wipe something off the corner of his lips." Theron

  • The Untitled Love Story    Chapter 32: Something Always Happens

    It was some point in the early hours of the morning. I opened my eyes slowly to the sound of someone sneaking up to us.It was too dark to see the face at the time, but from the frame, I knew it was a lady. She walked so calmly towards us, her hand reaching for something by her waist.My brain sprang awake as I pondered a way out of the situation. My gun was in my bag at the other side of the room, but there was an umbrella not too far from me. Though I doubt I could do anything with her hands already at her waist, that wasn't going to stop me from trying.Relief washed over me when I realised what was pulled out wasn't a gun, but a small rectangular object - a letter.It didn't completely dispel the tension in my mind, but it certainly gave me a higher chance of beating her.Soon she was close enough for me to see some little details of her face, mostly just her lips as she had a cap which she pulled down to obscure most of the upper parts of her face.A smile tugged the edge of her

    Melissa made sure to enlighten me on everything I needed to know about something called 'sexuality' and the LGBTQ community which kinda sounded weird to me, but she insisted I needed to know all that.It was somehow funny to me that in all my time reading up for the licence exams, I didn't come across anything related to any of it."There are hardly any cases where sexuality is the main problem here in Lindin." Melissa shrugged it off when I mentioned it.And according to her, queer people in Lindin weren't as flashy and flamboyant as most you would see around the world, so it was easy to miss them.I had her drop me off a couple of blocks from Theron's place because I felt it would be weird to pull up in front of his apartment with Melissa."You sure you don't want me to drive you all the way there?" She asked as I stepped out."Yeah, this is good enough for me. Plus, I don't think he would appreciate me pulling up in front of his house with a detective when even his co-workers don't

    Melissa was silent for a moment, leaving the office in complete silence aside from the low humming of the air conditioning. I pulled out my badge, ready to hear her dismiss me from the case or to say something harsh like how I was a terrible detective for letting my feelings interfere with an investigation."I guessed as much." She shrugged.Surprised, I looked up to realise she was smiling at me. "I'm sorry, but are you smiling?" I asked, confused."Of course I am, though I don't blame you for expecting a bad response. Not everyone is kind towards those who love differently from the societal norms." She shrugged."What?" I asked confused."Though Lindin is a safe place for all kinds of love, homophobia still exists in the hearts of some." She smiled reassuringly.I kept staring at her, confused; I had no idea what she was talking about. What did she mean by homophobia?"Well, I have another secret to tell you." I grinned nervously."You guys have already done it?" She gasped, eyes s

    I frowned instantly, annoyed by the sudden withdrawal. I was going to ask why when I felt something in my trousers. "I need to use the restroom." I hurriedly said, heading for the toilet."Don't go taking a shower without your towel again." He shouted behind me.Making sure the door was locked, I slowly looked down at my pants."Fuck." I sighed, leaning against the door.There was no way I could deny caring about Theron beyond how a friend should. Unless, it was suddenly okay to get a boner from being in close proximity with your friends, which I knew wasn't so.Taking a few deep breaths while muttering random things to distract myself, I managed to calm myself down.Then I suddenly got a text from Melissa."Meet me at the office, it's important."I guess that meant I was skipping dinner.Theron didn't look surprised when I told him I was heading out to the office."I see you have made your choice." He muttered.But as much as I was conflicted, I knew one thing but I needed more time

    "I can't believe you agreed to having me stay over at your place rather than staying over at ours." I scoffed as Theron laid the blankets on the living room floor."You are just being stubborn for no reason. She's lived alone for years before you showed up, what makes you think she can't survive one night in her own? It's not like you do much around the house anyways." He shrugged in response.He did have a point though. Granny handled all the chores at the house from cooking to dishes, and even laundry. I only helped out during the weekends when we cleaned the house."Besides we need to talk." He added once he finished."You are damn right we do." I muttered, staring at the envelope in my hand."Isn't it a bit early for your first case to have a file that thick?" He chuckled, walking over to the kitchen.I said nothing at first, just walking behind him into the kitchen. "It's not my case file, it's Jason's." I sighed."Oh, what is it about?" He asked, interest waning in his tone.He

    I don't know how, but Melissa had managed to get Cynthia, Paul, and the other hostages out before I arrived. Their captors, however, weren't too pleased by that as they unleashed their weapons on the door."Call for backup." She yelled, leaning against the wall next to the door with her gun ready.Quickly muttering some commands into the radio phone, I readied my gun in preparation to retaliate, but the gunshots quieted down."They are probably reloading." I thought to myself, looking to take the opportunity to shoot back.But the moment I turned to shoot, my jaw dropped in surprise as I found two of the shooters lying dead on the ground and the third about to drink some mysterious green liquid."Noo!!" I yelled, charging towards him, but I was too late.He slumped to the ground, foams spouting from his mouth."Call an ambulance." I yelled to Melissa.But there was no point, the man went limp in a few seconds. No pulse, no breath, nothing at all.I ran back to the room where I had ti
