Exclusive! Around 7 PM, a woman's dead body was discovered in the Rohio Apartment, which is located at the far end of Camden Town. The victim received a gunshot wound in her forehead and fifty stab wounds around her body, so her identity is almost hard to recognize. When a man at the apartment's reception heard the noise of their commotion, he went to the woman’s apartment and saw the perpetrator still stabbing the unconscious victim; when the perpetrator attempted to flee the crime scene, he was blocked by the tenants of the surrounding units, making it hard for him to move until the police came and apprehended him immediately.
The perpetrator has been identified as Archer Leviticus, the 22-year-old son of Camden's former mayor. And the victim, Maevis Alcantara, 21, was only identified by the ID discovered inside her bag. The perpetrator's reason for the girl's

Sierra Is Alive PART 2: THE THINGS I REGRET
To no one,On the day we met, the sky was brilliant and bright, with chirping birds soaring through the air as if all was well, and I'm the only one who feels bluer than usual. Every time she was doing something around the house, I could hear my mother humming the same lullaby. The kitchen was a mess, as if a typhoon had just blown its proportions as she sorted the many types of fruit she sells, and I was there sitting beside the kitchen window just looking up at the sky while waiting for mom to tell me to deliver the fruits to our customers in our neighborhood. Everything was good except for me, and when I returned my gaze to my mother in her wheelchair, I noticed her smiling and singing. I used to envy Mom sometimes, you know? Because she could find the positive in everything, no matter how cruel the world is to us.As long as I'm still in prison for a sin I

"You are completely useless!" When I heard the noises of things falling to the floor again, I trembled harder, but this time it was much louder, and my parents' yelling added too much pain to my eardrums, making me cover my ears."Eric, are you serious? You've had the audacity to tell me that? When I was the one who was working so hard from afar, I saved so much money, I didn’t almost eat simply to keep you alive! For years, I struggled with my desire to be with our son! I endured humiliation at the hands of my boss in order to save money for our son's future, but this is what I'm going to hear from you? Where has your appreciation gone?! You squandered all of the money I'd saved just for your vices!" My hands fell on my knees and I trembled even more when I heard mom cry after a loud thud.I couldn't handle it any longer because I knew that Dad hit Mom a

We all turned to the doorway, stunned; this was not the first time their father had returned home unexpectedly. Mildred instantly bowed and took the briefcase from Mayor Arthur's grasp as she walked to the second floor, her gaze glazing over at Bryon, who was still standing dumbfounded, whilehis hands weretwitching.I returned my attention to Mayor Arthur, who gazed at us one by one, his expression solemn, as if scrutinizing us. When his eyes darted at me, I instinctively bowed. Mom returned to the living room, carrying a tray of snacks. "Oh, Mayor Arthur, good afternoon. Ummm, this is for your son Archer; he's too engrossed in his studies, so I'll let him rest first. I hope you don’t mind." Mom answered sweetly and bowed once more to Mayor Arthur.Mom secretly grinned at me as she made her way toward Archer, who was staring at nowhereli

I awoke one morning to loud noises coming from outside our house. I assumed I was only dreaming, but when I heard Dad's voice there, I gasped loudly and rushed out of my bedroom. When I looked out the living room window, I noticed our neighbors swarming in front of our house. I followed their gazes and noticed Dad kneeling on the muddy ground because it had rained the night before. He's kneeling in front of Mom, crying, and saying sorry and promising things we both know he can't do. I closed my eyes and took a long breath as I leaned against the side of the window, holding my chest for a bit before deciding to leave the house. As were the folks outside, who were silent for a minute as they watched me walk slowly towards them. "S-Son..." I kind of wince when he addresses me in such a nice word; it's the first time he's addressed me that way, and it makes me fe

"What do you think you're doing?" When I discovered dad resting on our sofa, I yelled at him.He wasn't wearing a top shirt and was about to fall asleep when I got homefrom school and saw him. "You told usearlier that you have work today and will most likely return home in the evening, so why are you sleeping here now?" I asked once more. His annoyance was visible on his face. He sat up swiftly, shaking his head at me."You keep blabbering. Why don't you try working instead? You're goddamn pestering me." His reaction was irritable. He jumped to his feet, grabbed a pitcher of water from the refrigerator, and drank and gulped it down.I clenched my jaws to keep myself from exploding in anger. He's just been here for five months, yet I'm already noticing a resurgence of his old bad habits. "I'm

"It seems you're quite serious about Trina; you've been with her for about a month now." George teased Archer, even playing his fingers on his arm, causing the latter to withdraw away from him. We came to Spencer's house to play video games, but we're currently eating a snack in their dining room."Right! You're so loyal to Trina, in contrast to what happened to me. My ex and I barely lasted five days." Spencer butts in, pouting his lips with ketchup because of how messy he is while chewing on his hamburger. He has the audacity to woo girls while stillbehaving like a child. Troy smacked him lightly on the back of the head for his stupid remark. We chuckled, but we quickly went silent because Archer's face was solemn and he didn't seem happy about it."Why? Is there a problem, Arch?" Spencer asked, reaching for a napkin to wipe the ketchup smear on his lip

I never imagined I'd be able to reach the age of fifteen with my father still living in our house. He's still working, but he doesn't have a regular job, and mom is still working as a maid at Leviticus' house because aunt Brianna didn't want to let her quit, maybe because of the fact thatshe had become her friend. Mom's pay was also increased, and we were given groceries every week. Because our family was so close to them, Mayor Arthur insisted that I continue to refer to him as 'uncle' rather than the formal one. After all of their help, I realized they were not as evil as others made them out to be.I frequently stayed at Archer’s house after he recovered, and I think that my dad became terrified and scared of Archer's father, which was also the beginning of him not hurting me anymore. One Saturday afternoon, as I was heading to swim practice at school, my dad accompanied me. That day I had a

The next few days were difficult since Mom was hit by a car, which the driver claimed had lost its brakes. Mom's injuries that she got from the accidentwereterrible, especially on her two legs that had become stuck on the car wheels. Mom had been in the hospital for a month, and each day felt like a powerful storm slamming into my life, straining my patience to the limit.Due to extensive damage, Mom had to have one of her legs amputated, while her other leg remained paralyzed as a result of the trauma she had experienced. Since then, she has had to rely on a wheelchair. It kills me so much as a teen to see her suffer while adjusting to her new depressing life. Sometimes I caught her silently crying while simply staring at her legs, and that just crushed my heart. She once apologized to me since she could no longer work and provide me a good life because she is now handicapped. I can't take hea
