When worry turns into panic PT 2
"Because two policemen are outside and I don't know what they are looking for." June's mother answered. "Are you sure you did nothing wrong?"
"Of course not!"
Her mum let out a sigh.
"Okay, let's just go and see what they want. Your father is talking to them already."
As she walked to the parlor, June reminded herself to stay calm. It's nothing. They don't know anything. But why are they at her house? She felt a knot in her stomach that told her she would not like the answer.
"Good morning sirs." Her mother greeted the policemen while she remained silent behind her.
"Good evening ma'am." The officers replied.
"So why are you here?" She demanded immediately.
"Erm, just as we were telling your husband before you came in," One of the officers answered. "There was a car accident at the bridge before the exit or the town last night."
June was beginning to tremble where she stood. A car accident? No, it can't be! She slo

Making sure they kept their distance so that the driver's suspicions wouldn't rise, the motorcycle Grace boarded continued to follow Mrs. Badmus' car across the city until it stopped at a shopping complex."Okay, stop... I think she is coming out now." Grace said to the man riding the motorcycle, bringing him to a stop too.They watched as a young girl, not too older than Grace wearing a blouse and a skirt rushed to the side of the car. She bent her knees in a gesture to greet Mrs. Badmus who stepped out of the car and handed the girl her bag immediately. Probably her assistant, Grace assumed as she watched. Mrs. Badmus went on to say a few things to the girl who replied with a nervous nod. Satisfied with the response, Mrs. Badmus decided to go inside while the young girl followed behind her. This was the opportunity Grace was looking for. She knew it was the time to act!"Okay, I'm stopping here." She said alighting from the motorcycle and then gave the man som
Homicide Squad Not your average kidnap.
"I came to turn myself in.""Turn yourself in, for what?""I'm responsible for Joana's kidnap."June's parents were shocked by her statement but it was nothing new to the policemen around. They could do nothing but watch in utter perplexion as she was taken immediately to the interrogation room for questioning."So," The police officer sitting opposite her began as he held his hands together. "I guess what happened is that you planned your sister's kidnap because of some grudge, or perhaps that boy... And now you're feeling guilty so you chose to turn yourself in.""No, that's not it." June replied."It's not?" The man asked with a bit of skepticism. "So what is it then?"June decided to start from the very beginning, from the time when they became friends with Joana and how they attended the party, and how they started playing the game."So you expect me to believe that this kidnap is a direct result of a game?" Th
Homicide Squad The truth about Veronica
"June, remember what you told me before? Tell these two men exactly the same thing."June repeated the same thing she told Officer Simon to Officer James and Ade, and with every word she said, the pieces began to fit in James' head."So you're saying that when Margret said that Sylvester left them, you girls were just covering up his death, and the day Raymond died, you girls went to the party to prevent his death?""Yes." June answered.To Officer Ade, it all seemed delusional."Come on James, you're not saying you believe this nonsense do you?"Officer James remained quiet which only seemed to piss him off."You better say the truth if you know what is good for you." He said to June with a mean stare. "Did you girls kill them or not?""I don't think they did." James finally spoke up."What?"Officer Ade and Simon uttered."I don't think they killed anyone. I think someone is trying to mess with them; someon
Homicide Squad Fugitive.
As Joana slowly opened her eyes, she had no idea of where she was. Both her hands and legs were tied up with a cord and her head was banging with a throbbing ache. The only that flashed in her mind was John's cousin driving and then the crash. How did she get here? Where was she?She raised her head to observe the room. It was small. The roof had no ceiling, the floor was concrete and the only light that penetrated the room was from a wooden window at the left side of the room. That wasn't all. Someone was in the room with her."W-Who's there?" She said as she squinted her eyes at the figure who sat with a crossed leg on a steel chair."Good, you're awake." The figure said getting up then walked closer to Joana."Veronica--" Joana said, her jaw dropped in awe."Uhm, no darling." Cassandra said tapping the tip of her nose. "Guess again.""Were you lying to us about your name being Veronica?""No dear, Veronica is real alrig
Homicide Squad See what our drift has caused!
James stepped out of the interrogation to address June's parents. It was decided among the three officers that it was best if he lead the case since he was the only one who had any idea of what was going on but James knew it was because he was the only one ready to believe June's theory.He met Gabriel and Gladys sitting on a long bench but they got up as soon as he appeared."Good afternoon sir and ma.""Good afternoon officer," Gabriel answered. "So what did our daughter tell you? Did she really kidnap her sister?""No, June meant it figuratively.""I don't understand you." Gladys replied."What she meant by that was that she incited what lead to Joana's kidnap, not the actual kidnap itself." James studied their faces and knew immediately that they didn't understand what he was saying. "I'm sorry, let me start from the beginning."James narrated everything to June's parents just like she had said earlier. There was a mix
Homicide Squad We are goddesses!
"Veronica, wake up."Veronica opened her eyes slowly to see Hakim Bello's face staring down at her."Uncle Kim," Veronica said getting up, making Hakim move backward."Why aren't you in school?"Veronica placed the back of her hand in front of her mouth in an effort to cover it as she yawned. In no time she realized she was in the living room. But how did she get there? She had no idea. It was like there were blank gaps in her memory. Veronica had been experiencing it ever since she came to Ketu town, blacking out and waking up moments later with no idea of what she was doing before. But it was beginning to happen more frequently and also seemed like she was blacking out for longer hours."Eh, I'm tired I guess." She said as she stood up."Okay, but this is surprising... You have never slept on the couch before and you are mostly locked up in your room. Now you are here, napping on the couch and leaving your shoes on."Veronica looked
Homicide Squad Time's running out!
Wasting no more time, Officer James quickly dispatched as many other officers available to go search for Margret and Veronica. June had told him earlier that she had warned Margret before turning herself in and he was not likely to find her at her house. Still, James decided to head there first not just because it was the best place to look and trace Margret, but because he wanted to be the one to break the news of what was going on gently to her mother.He went with his partner, Officer Ade who was reading James the entire time they drove to the house."You don't know what you're going to say, do you?" Ade asked just as James was about to knock on the door. James held his hand back immediately Ade spoke, his only response being an awkward silence which seemed to put a naughty smile on Ade's face."You're crushing on the woman! Oh, I must see who she is today--"Embarrassed by his partner's words, James spoke back in a harsh whisper."Stop it! I am
Homicide Squad Grace has a plan.
Hakim Bello was still in the kitchen fixing the pipes when the police came to the house."Who's there?" He yelled, responding to the banging on the door."It's the police, please open the door."'The police? Why were they here?' He pondered as he walked to do the door."May I help you?" He said with a frown that formed lines on his thick forehead."We are looking for a Veronica Bello." The policeman answered. "Is she inside?""No, she hasn't been home since morning." Hakeem lied before realizing that he didn't even know why they were after her. "But why are you looking for her? Is she in any trouble?""Yes, who is she to you?" The other policeman spoke."She is my niece." Mr. Bello answered. "Now I ask again, is she in any trouble?""Not particularly sir, but we have reason to believe that a killer is targeting her and friends and we want to bring them in.""What the hell!" Hakeem explained. "Why should I believe
