I died beneath the Ferris wheel. The killer took a photo of the Ferris wheel and sent it to my mother. 'Mom, I want to ride the Ferris wheel with you too,' wrote the killer. In my mother's voice message, her tone was filled with hatred as she replied, "How dare you ask to ride the Ferris wheel with me when you killed your own sister? Why won't you just die?!" As she wished, I was dead. However, what she didn't know was that the one who killed me was my so-called dead sister.
View MoreI was also bewildered by Officer John's words.'Does that mean the person in front of me is Vanessa?'My mother staggered backward but was still staring at Vanessa."So, Angel has been dead all along! Why did you pretend to be her all these years?"Only then did Vanessa finally raise her head to look at my mother. Perhaps she had given up on resisting as the panic from before was gone and was replaced by a malicious grin."Why? Of course, it was for revenge. Among us, you hated me the most for being stubborn. Instead, you adored Angel. So, I tricked her into exchanging our clothes and pushed her down the stairs. Then, I started taking Angel's place. What do you think? Did I do well over the years?"When my mother heard her words, her face turned pale.Meanwhile, I snapped back to reality after hearing Vanessa's confession.Vanessa indeed resembled Angel a great deal. However, her very character would remain unchanged no matter how she disguised herself.Vanessa savored the loo
At that moment, my mind went blank.'Not Angel? How could that be possible?' I remembered clearly watching her pinning me down and plunging a knife into my chest with that vicious face that was identical to mine. The pain was etched deep in my heart.However, my mother didn't seem the slightest bit surprised. "It wasn't Angel from the start!" She screamed and hung up the phone before Officer John could finish.The crowd began shoving the police as they chanted for my death. The nearby officers tried to maintain order, demanding that my mother delete her post. However, she refused to do so."My daughter is dead! Why won't you leave her alone even after death?"At this point, I could no longer ignore the exhaustion weighing on my soul.Everyone was rallying for justice for Angel, and no one cared about me. Now that I had no choice but to follow my mother around, I knew that she wouldn't believe me even if I told her the truth.After all, she refused to hear anything that didn't ma
The truth was just right there.As I heard their conversation, my hands were shaking as I clutched my chest.Memories of her killing me flashed through my mind.My mother froze for a moment. However, she was overwhelmed by an explosive wave of emotion instead of realizing the truth."My daughter has gone missing after jumping into the river! I'm here to find her, not to listen to you slander her as a murderer!"Officer John understood it was hard for my mother to accept reality as it was. So, he wanted to explain further, but she cut him off sharply."You guys still can't distinguish right from wrong. Her sister is the murderer, not Angel. Angel jumped into the river. She did this because of you!"At this point, Officer John was frustrated to hear that same-old accusation over and over again."The blood report will be out tonight. Then, we'll know whether Melissa is the victim!"Then, Officer John stormed off.After that, my mother fell to her knees and looked devastated. Aft
Officer John fell silent upon hearing her answer before saying, "Come in tomorrow for a report."My mother immediately understood what he was implying and became furious. "Are you seriously suspecting Angel? You must be insane! Angel is such a good kid. Stop making things up to spite me!" Then, she hung up the phone.Then, she opened the comments on her article after venting her anger for a couple of minutes. When she scrolled through all the comments of people hurling insults at me, she smiled in satisfaction and even began humming happily.Then, she bought a bouquet of sunflowers by the roadside and went home. As she pushed open the door, she called out, "Angel, I'm home! Look what I brought for you!"However, there was no response from Angel, who should have come running at the sound of her voice.So, my mother held the bouquet and rushed to Angel's bedroom. Yet, she found no trace of her even after searching the entire house.Soon, my mother panicked and quickly ran outside t
At night, my mother arrived punctually at the press conference. This was a conference about the recent murder case.When it was her turn to speak, she suddenly slammed her hands down on the table and declared loudly, "The murderer of the Ferris wheel incident has been found. It's Melissa Royce, the same killer who is responsible for her twin sister's death eight years ago. "However, the police have taken no action. I wonder if they are covering up for the murderer."The room fell silent before erupting with questions.Officer John reacted quickly and broke through the crowd to pull my mother away from the podium. Alas, she merely continued to shout angrily, "I question the integrity of your investigation! Please give us justice!"After Officer John pulled her backstage, he asked with a grim expression, "Do you have any idea what you're doing?""You guys aren't doing anything. Why shouldn't I take matters into my own hands?" my mother retorted sharply.Officer John sighed and ru
Soon, my mother and Angel rushed to the police station.Officer John sighed helplessly after going through my mother's phone. "Melissa is only a suspect. We can't confirm she's the killer just from this photo," he said calmly.However, my mother was agitated. "It's definitely her! No one knows her better than I do. She's the murderer you're looking for!"Officer John reassured her until she had calmed down slightly. Then, he changed the subject and asked, "What does she mean by wanting to ride the Ferris wheel with you?"My mother sneered and replied, "Last week, I took Angel to the amusement park and posted about it. She must have seen it and felt jealous. That's why she killed someone to taunt us!"I felt nothing but sadness after hearing her words.Indeed, I was jealous. After all, my mother's posts were filled with every detail of Angel's life, and there were no traces of me. I would always torture myself by scrolling through their photos over and over, hoping that one day I
I doubted my mother would miss such a massive clue since the killer had sent the message to provoke her.As my mother looked at the photo, her hands started to tremble. Then, she clenched her fists tightly as her expression became incredulous.When her assistant caught a glimpse of the message, she was horrified. "Could it really be Melissa…""It is Melissa!" My mother cut her off sharply.Her eyes were filled with anger as she breathed heavily. It seemed as if she had just received devastating news.As I watched her reaction up close, I covered my face and was unable to hold back my tears from falling.'Mom, so you do care after all. You would still feel the pain of losing me.'When I came to that conclusion, I floated toward her and reached out as I tried to embrace her.For a brief moment, it almost felt like her warmth reached my spirit.Suddenly, her expression twisted in fury as she shouted, "I knew it! She has done it again! She killed someone!"'I killed someone?' At
My dad called again around noon. This time, his voice was filled with urgency as he spoke, "I visited Melissa, and she really is missing. I asked the neighbors about her whereabouts, but no one had seen her recently. Do you think something bad might have happened to her?"In the meantime, my mother was in the kitchen brewing tea for Angel. When she heard my dad's words, she snapped, "You're such a fool! Why are you even looking for her? Do you want her to kill more people? Evil people never die. I've wished for her death for years, but she's still alive. So, what could have possibly happened to her?"My dad took a few deep breaths, but his voice was still shaky. "Listen to me. When I went to see her, I saw that she was living in a filthy, rundown basement. The landlord told me she barely managed to pay the rent and often fell behind. "I know you're still angry about what she did, but she has indeed gotten her punishment for these past five years. It feels different this time. No
At that moment, I became anxious.It was a photo of my coat, the one that my mother had bought for me five years ago. I cherished it so much that I had a tailor make it bigger so I could keep wearing it.I wondered if she could still recognize it.My mother hesitated for a moment before saying, "Angel has a coat just like this."When I heard her, I was at a loss for words. The hope I had within me had vanished instantly.My mother remembered everything about Angel but never about me.Then, she added with a sigh, "For some reason, she reminds me of Angel. I guess it's because they're around the same age and build." She probably sympathized as she cursed, "This murderer is the same as Melissa. They are a danger to society. Just the thought of Melissa being somewhere in the world makes me sick."Chills ran down my spine at her venomous tone, and my heart was torn apart.In the meantime, my mother straightened and said to Officer John. "Let me know as soon as there's any progress.
