WHO IS HE? Why me?
Rose's point of views :And then he told me everything...How he was appointed for this mission to find the mysterious murderer that has been brutally murdering women since months.How they found out that I was one of his targets and that he was chosen for my protection.Frankly, I was scared. Infact, I was terrified when he told me about Stella's murder.I couldn't help but wonder How sick could one be to do something so brutal!How could someone be so inhuman?Only a sheer devil would do something so sinful.Heaving out a sigh,"Why did you have the knife that day? Did it belong to the murderer?" I asked him.He nodded back and replied back "We had confiscated that knife from the spot on the night when we saved Stella earlier""And that night, I heard you stopping someone to burn someone alive. Um, what was that?" I couldn't refrain from asking."That was just another criminal we caught the night before. My colleague loses his cool easily but nothing of the sort happened" he replie
WHO IS HE? What changed?
Rose's point of views :"Damn! Will you please get out of your Dreamland, rose! It's getting annoyed now. What has gotten inside you?" I heard Jessy's complaining voice."It's nothing" I said softly and couldn't hide the smile I still have from the last night."Seriously? What changed overnight? The last time I saw you, you were this grumpy and worried young woman and now, you have this irritating goofy smile plastered on your face even while staring at this stained white wall" she exasperated.I looked back puzzled.Is it?I couldn't even tell."It's something related to Daniel, right?" She asked then with folded arms staring right back at me.I could feel my cheeks getting hot, reminiscing about our conversation last night.Of course, mostly the end part of that."We just had some talks." I replied softly "OH MY GOSH! Did you tell him you wanna give your relationship a second chance? What did he say then? How did he react? Tell me. Tell me everything!" She asked back enthusiastical
WHO IS HE? A picture
Rose's point of views :Almost running downstairs, I found Jessy talking to James.Just when James looked past Jessy towards me and then waved at me with his characteristic smirk smile "Hey" He suddenly raised his camera and clicked a picture of me making me momentarily startled on my spot.I had to blink a couple of times to regain back my composure" It's rude to click picture of someone without the permission. Please delete it." I told him straightaway."Come on! Just one picture" he said with a pout."I need pictures of every beautiful thing in this city. You are one of them" he added then.My eyes simply widened as i stared back lost for words now.He added " I am sorry. My bad! That was too cliche!""Remember when she said that she is married, she was actually serious that time, James" Jessy intervened.She sounded upset though."Oh...okay. I was just kidding" he said with a titter laugh which we reciprocated."It's okay but please delete my picture. I really don't like it" I
WHO IS HE? Enough?

BEWARE!The POLICE MAINTAINS SILENCE ON THE MATTER!The headlines of every newspaper screamed the same thing.Things really has got out of hand after Stella's murder.Citizen's faith in us are shaken. Their rage is justified.Sighing,Disappointment can't even begin to explain what i feel inside about the whole thing.For the first time in my life, I am dissatisfied with my work. This feeling really sucks.Stella could have been saved.We'd have saved her only if we hadn't assumed she was safe.That was our fault!We lost an already won battle.Sighing, I placed the newspapers back on the table and moved towards the balcony.I have always enjoyed observing the skies and the twinkling stars for peace but tonight even they made no difference to my heart.Is it me or is the night indeed gloomy tonight? Gloomy.Just how rose describes those stars up there.God!Even when
WHO IS HE? A link
Rose's point of views : It's been two days since I shifted back to this house. Things have been pretty smooth thankfully.Daniel hasn't left the house since then but he has been busy, more busy than ever. I have least seen him in the last two days.He only comes out for food but hardly talks.Knocking on his room's door, When I turned the knob,My mouth fell so fast i wondered why didn't I feel the touch of cold floor.Oh dear god..His room was a mess.There were piles of files on his desk.Pictures of possibly every victim on the walls and paper balls thrown down on the floors. The windows were shut. It was sheer darkness.It did not feel very homely standing here.Nothing like when I used to stay here and more like some secret investigation room.God!This is madness.The dim lights in the room already felt bothering. Finally noticing my presence,"What is it? Are you okay?" He asked in a soft voice, lacing concern.His eyes had bags. He looked like a mess himself, every bit of
WHO IS HE? He is here?
Two days later Rose's point of views :Late evening.Daniel has been out for the entire day today and still isn't home yet.Nothing uncanny has happened in the last few days that really makes me wonder what is the psychopath upto?Did he just give up? But...He wouldn't just give up, right? What is it then?With CCTV cameras in every corner and Lucy being there for me in the house, I wasn't worried for me.The only thought that was bothering me was Daniel's health. He has been over working since the last few days and often been skipping meals.I am grateful for all that he is doing for me and do appreciate his passion for his work and all his efforts too but the way he is neglecting himself in the process is just unacceptable. With a long sigh, Sitting up straight, I took out some magazines from the lower rack to distract myself for the time being when suddenly the TV got switched on, startling me on spot.Taking a moment to come out of the momentary shock, i looked around for the
WHO IS HE? The End?
Rose's point of views :When I fluttered open my eyes,Not very clearly though, but I noticed someone's presence standing at a distance in front of me.I choked on my tears.Just when......The doorbell rang.My breath ceased.Could it be Daniel?"Oh! Looks like the guy on the wheelchair is back, Rose. Wouldn't you welcome your dear husband? Come out sweetheart" I heard the creepy voice saying.My heart was thumping in my chest.Sweat pearls were dripping down my face. I could feel my breathing getting heavier.When Suddenly,The lights were switched on. The brimming brightness made me completely blind for seconds.When I opened my eyes, the figure I saw some time ago at a distance was gone now.He was nowhere to be seen.That made me even more anxious on my spot.I cannot stay hidden here now The second doorbell sound startled me.Who could it be?Is it a trap?I heard the door opening then."ROSE"It was Daniel's voice.He is home.I could hear the scrambling noise of Daniel's whe
WHO IS HE? Shot?
Daniel's point of views :So, I was right about this bastard.He is the murderer, the beast! I tried my best to control the rage that was evoking like a lava within me. I didn't want to take any reckless move. Hence, gritting my teeth, I just stared back at him. His eyes were now holding my Rose captive. My gaze was fixed on him, keenly observing his every move while simultaneously, they were also on my wheelchair that lay ahead of me. I was just waiting for the right opportunity.He started taking closer steps towards Rose and just when he walked ahead of my wheelchair, that was it! That was the moment I was waiting for.I kicked the wheelchair making it hit him straight. He stumbled down and his gun fell down somewhere across the room.Immediately, standing up on my feet."This is how the tables turn," I said pointing my own gun towards him.Clearly, he was bewildered watching me standing in front of him as his End."You Rasc*l!" He cursed out loud but before he could attack me ba
