Louisa's p.o.v;After a week, Today's the graduation day for Danielle, not only her but I was also waiting for this day to come. I decided that today's my last try for the red stone. If I can't get any leads, I'm dropping this search and going to put an end to it. Danielle, "Hey Lou!" She gave me a hug and said, "Thank you for showing up early. But I have yet to get my certificate from the principal inside the college and the ceremony will take place here in the open space. If you don't mind, can you please wait here with others?""Yeah, no problem. I'll wait.""Thank you again, Louisa. My friends are waiting inside. I'll get back to them. See ya at the ceremony." She walked into the building.I took a seat in the open space area she mentioned. It was literally an open stage for the students to celebrate their graduation. I looked around and saw parents, siblings, friends gathered here for their sons and daughters on their graduation ceremony. When I looked at them, I thought, 'I'm
Louisa's p.o.v;I woke up to the alarm which I forgot to turn off again. After turning it off, I got out of the bed and walked to the kitchen since I felt hungry as I woke up. When I opened the refrigerator, it was empty. Did I forget to buy groceries again? It's difficult to get used to living alone after having a roommate around. After a shower, I must hit a convenience store otherwise I have to go to nearby food stalls again. I took the egg out of the refrigerator and made Scrambled eggs out of it. After having scrambled eggs for breakfast, I took a shower and walked out of the apartment to go to a convenience store. After a while, I arrived at the convenience store. I looked for bread, eggs, butter and cheese which is the easiest breakfast to prepare in the morning once I wake up. Once I got everything, I walked around to look for instant noodles. Since I'm going to stay at my apartment during the holidays, should I look for another part time job? If I wanted to go, what kind o
Louisa's p.o.v;After a week, At hospital, in front of Bernie's room,"Did you get that driver now?" I asked Raphael about the person who ran away after the accident. Raphael answered, "Like i already said, the driver's face wasn't registered in the surveillance camera in that street. Moreover there wasn't any camera where the accident occurred. The car number is also fake. I couldn't get any information about this case."I got mad after hearing him say, "The driver couldn't be traced. The car plate number is fake. Are you saying that he fell down from the sky…" i stopped shouting at him and realised that it could be Pandora gang. They already sent someone to spy on me. And they hurt Antonio when he tried to keep an eye on Bernie. This could definitely be them. I continued to Raphael, "Find him soon, Raphael." And walked into Bernie's room. Everly was feeding him the food using a spoon while Bernie was whining to her. After seeing me, Bernie complained to me, "Louisa, i said my ha
Louisa's p.o.v;At cafe, Ryan, "Why are you here early?" I leaned on the table and said, "It's so boring being alone at my place. Do you know some cafes that are looking for a part timer?" "There's a reason why they're giving you a holiday after an exam. You should make use of it by taking a rest for your mind and body.""But I'm bored.""What will you do when you're usually on holiday?""I watch movies and order some takeaways.""Is that how you really spend your time?"I nodded and asked, "How do you spend yours?" "I'll go trekking with my friends, mountain climbing and camping stuff.""Sounds fun.""Why don't you try it and see if it's fun?""First, I should have friends to do those things. I don't have many friends like you. I totally have two friends. Bernardo and Diego. It became three when I got close to Bernardo's girlfriend, Everly.""Why don't you pay a visit to your parents since you're free?" I let out a sigh and said, "Won't you miss me if i go?""I won't.""You're n
Louisa's p.o.v;At some abandoned alley in the sete lagoas, Edgar, "Is this the place he asked you to come?" "Yeah, since there's no surveillance camera around here. He chose this place." I answered him while looking for that dealer. "Does he know that you're bringing a guy with you?""No, that's why you have to hide when I give you the signal, understand?""You don't have the artefact you bargained on. What are you going to do when he asks about it?""I'll make excuses."He nodded and asked, "What did you tell your friend before coming here?""I used the same excuse as yesterday. I said I'm going to hang out with you since it's been a long time." While I was looking at the only possible way he could come from, Edgar said, "It would be good if we're really school friends, right?"I punched on his shoulder and said, "How could you say that? we didn't study together, we're still friends. Remember that." After a while, I said to Edgar, "Go and hide. He's coming."The dealer asked a
FOUR YEARS LATERLouisa's p.o.v;I let out a yawn as I leaned back in my seat while looking at the report which I was holding in my hand. Raphael, "What is that?" "Autopsy report of my case I've been handling." "Why are you staring at it for so long? Where did you get stuck?" I sat straight and placed the report on the table saying, "It was mentioned that colourless liquid was found in the victim's body in an antifreeze system. When I gave it to the lab, they said it was ethylene glycol which poisoned her to death. I've investigated her parents, friends and her ex-boyfriends but they didn't have anything against her to poison her. I'm thinking about other possibilities for her cause of death.""I can't believe you are stuck in a case. Aren't you smarter than all of us here?""You don't have to say it like that. I'm like everyone else too.""Didn't you say she went to a bar before going home. Did you check the place? Since you said the poison was found in an antifreeze state. There
Louisa's p.o.v;While I was looking for information about the drug G-25, Eduardo came to my desk and looked at my screen asking, "Did you start with the work already?""Yeah." I answered while looking at the screen. "Can I sit?"After I nodded, he took a seat beside me and asked, "Didn't Gabriel say it's a new drug? How will you find it on the internet?" "I'm not looking for the G-25. I'm searching for the recent news on drugs. If there is any news like new drug cases or unknown substance cases filed already in some station. We can inquire about them and find out if we're looking for the same drug. If it was the same drug, the search will widen and we'll get many new leads for the drug." He nodded while saying, "Not bad.""Didn't you go to the harbour ports Gabriel mentioned?" "I have to." And continued looking at my screen. I turned the screen away from him and said, "I don't like when someone watches me while I'm working." He gave a smile and said, "Who said I'm looking at you
Louisa's p.o.v;At the police station, I dropped on the desk and thought about last night. I couldn't think of a way out of it. Yesterday was the first time I slept with him but I couldn't even feel happy about it. Ace wasn't someone who's involved with the drug. Ace was the one who's selling it. I'm not someone who follows ethics and morals to arrest whoever it is. But at the same time I don't side with the bad deeds. You can say that I'm neutral. Raphael tapped on my shoulder and asked, "Didn't you get enough sleep last night?" Last night? Please don't make me remember that. "Yeah, I was… I was watching a movie. Yeah. A movie." "I heard that you requested from the chief that you wanted to be relieved from the drug case. Was it true or just a rumour?" "It's true.""What happened?" "I'm not feeling well so I asked for a leave along with that request." He moved closer and checked the temperature by placing his hand on my forehead and said, "Looks like normal. Was it a cold?""N
