At night-
V came to work as early as possible so that he won't possibly miss the crazy Ms. Psychiatrist and Psychologists when she comes to the bar. He was almost 90 percent sure that the metal bracelet he always wore was in her possession. And he's going to get it back so that it returns to its rightful owner.
Anyone may wonder what's so special about that plain old metal bracelet. But for him, it was the most priceless and precious thing in the world. Because it had something that can't be replaced by anything in the world as it held the memory of ‘her’.
Time was trickling at its own constant pace but for a certain someone, it seemed slower than usual. Between doing his job of surviving cocktails from one table to anot
"WHAT THE HELL YOU AND YOUR GREAT TEAM ARE DOING FOR A WEEK THAT YOU COULDN'T EVEN FIND A LEAD? DO YOU GET PAID FOR SLACKING OFF? THE KILLER ALREADY KILLED 3 INNOCENT PEOPLE AND HOW MANY MORE INNOCENT LIVES MUST BE LOST BEFORE YOU FINALLY FIND A LEAD? TELL ME." The roar of the police chief vibrated through the walls of the special detective room as the five silent souls stood like a statue with their heads low along with their leader, Mr. Anderson in the front and the rest four at the back. The whole room was in a pin drop silence with papers and files scattered across the whole room. Just looking at the room alone one might get the idea that the people working in this might have already solved the case by working with their butts off. But sadly the reality is quite the opposite and frustrating. In this whole week, they have gone nowhere. The only time they were getting close to something, they got distracted by some people's personal grudges and jealousy and got lost in their preju
“Sooooo, can you remind me again exactly when you proposed to me and we became engaged?” Riana said with an intense ‘I’m going to kill you’ look on her face while playing with a silver butter knife in her fingers. She was standing in front of the boys who were sitting on her red couch like a couple of obedient kids. Suddenly she stopped spinning the small knife and held it firmly with her right hand while slowly touching the edge of it with the index finger of her left hand. “You know Jackson, maybe the edge of this knife is not sharp enough to actually kill you with one stab, and I might have to stab you approximately 10 times. So, I’ll give you a choice; either you find a way to kill yourself before I kill you with this orrrrr” Riana stopped and a creepy evil smile appeared on her face like one of those evil villains on anime. And only that smile was enough to make Jackson realize
After hearing Riana’s ridiculous condition, V lost his words. He was so dumbfounded that for moments he was just blankly staring at the girl before him who was drinking away her mango juice like some highly expensive wine. As after some moment when he finally came back to reality, he abruptly stood up from his seat.“Ok, I will take you out………on a date.” He hesitantly said with his right hand on the bridge of his nose. “But only one and you have to promise me that you can’t pull this kind of cheap trick again and blackmail me with my things.” His voice was firm and clear as he spoke those words.“Ok, deal” Riana gave a wide victory smile. And with that V stomped his way out of the house and mentally cursed at himself for losing the bracelet in the first place.After V went away Riana slowly stood up leaving her comfort
Jackson’s mood had been down since that morning when he saw the contact name of that ringing call. Deep inside he knew something was not right and he was being played by someone with some plan. But never in a million years had he thought that, it would be Aria ‘his ex-girlfriend, who was playing with his life as if he was nothing more than her toy. That unexpected meeting in front of the elevator took the last bit of strength in him not to break down. Now he didn’t have any idea what he should do next. He felt like the world was against him and it was playing its ridiculous pranks, with him as its main target. At this point, he lost his will to fight as he was aimlessly walking on the side of the road not caring where his feet were taking him. His mind was clouded with the thoughts of the past, repeating his most treasured yet the most unpleasant memories that he locked deep inside his mind. The time when he was still a medical student, the first time when everythi
"Aaaaaaaaaah" V groaned in annoyance thinking back about the condition he had to accept to get his thing back. He was now back in his apartment after a long night shift at the bar. Last night was unusually more crowded than other nights and also some workers had their day off so the bar was already short in staff and more customers made the night like a breathless marathon for the workers who were working on the last night shift. And V was no exception. He was exhausted and his feet were screaming in pain for not getting a single moment of rest from the last 10 hours. On the other hand, his mind was exhausted from the thoughts of her, the crazy psychiatrist, and psychologist. Every time he thinks about her, he feels annoyed for no reason. And the fact that for the past few days his head was full of thoughts about her, didn't help him calm down one bit. Riana was the second person in his life who could see through his mind
Jean slammed the door open catching everyone's attention in the room, even the dozing of hackers'. The investigation room was a big mess as always. Piles of reports and papers could be seen here and there in the room. "Sir, the forensic team discovered new evidence," Jean said while catching on her breath, clearly indicating that she ran on her way here.Mr. Anderson and Mr. Gray were checking on some reports on the background checks of the victims. Hearing Jean they both stopped what they were doing and rushed to the girl on the door."What do you mean? Didn't they already submit the autopsy report weeks ago? And it's not like we found any torture tools or new evidence recently. Then how come they find new evidence?" Mr. Gray nodded in agreement as Mr. Anderson spoke those words."I don't know but a few days ago Dr. Aria told me that s
After some moments of loudly slamming on the door and cursing at the blonde hair boy with her heart content for suddenly locking her up in her own house and fleeing with his so-called friend, Riana gave up and called the only other person she could think of helping her at that moment, Clara. Just within the second ring, Clara picked up and answered Riana's call."What's up, sis? Has the beast been tamed yet? Or is he still mad about me giving him a taste of my teaser and coming after my babies to have his vengeance?" Said the clueless girl with her worried voice. But Riana wasn't in the mood in dealing with other things as her mind was fueled with rage for a certain someone."That jerk has locked me inside my home and gone off with his new friend." Riana roared into the phone making the person on the other side almost lose her hearings.
Ding......Ding......DingThe old clock made the familiar sound making the person in front of it aware of the time.It's 3 A.M. and some people call it Devil's Hour.The sound brought the dazed man back to reality and a terror to his soul. Because he knew, it was time for her arrival. A woman whose beautiful green eyes are just as dangerous as the eyes of Medusa. Maybe hers are worse than Medusa because like Medusa she doesn't turn people to stone, she can make them crumble on her feet and beg for mercy.But ironically, she doesn't have the word "mercy" in her dictionary for her prey.The slow footsteps down the hall made the man flinch a little. But it also stimulated his determination to set his hands loose. Both of his wrists were already covered with blood from his previous tries which have already dried up. A new flow of the red liquid covered the dried ones and painted its new trail but his hands, as well as his legs, were still tired with cheap cable ties.

Hearing what the male detective just said Jackson should have been furious or surprised. But instead, he laughed. Seeing Jackson’s unpredictable and different reaction they became confused a little but didn't let him see that.“That’s the funniest thing that I've heard in a while.” Jackson continued laughing.“What’s so funny?” Jean was annoyed with the male Doctor who was laughing at them.The doctor stopped his laughter and spoke.“It's funny how you think that no doctor can get the simple analysis right without doing an autopsy himself. I mean the signs are all visible and anyone in the medical field can analyze them like me if they are observant enough.” Jackson repli
