ARMANDO

After the court case was settled, I could not help myself but think deeply about the words Damien spoke to me.

His innocence was as clear as daylight but I still did not find it easy to believe, I thought to myself that it might be my impression of him and the resounding hurt I always remember he caused Michigan.

Hidden in my room with the door locked to avoid any unexpected guests, I needed space to think clearly before making my next move.

"What exactly is going on?"

These words kept playing in my head as I focused my gaze on the flower vase that sat on the table, I could smite the object with how I looked at it.

"There is more to this whole incident besides the fact that it revolves around Clara, she might not have a hand in anything just yet but I must find out the truth."

My hunger for the truth was the very drive that I needed to take drastic action, one that would enlighten me on what should be done next in the matter.

I rose to my feet as I seemed to conclude after thi

    ARMANDO"I believe she is the real person who is connected to the crime, but the whole thing hasn't made sense to me each time I try to figure it out."Looking beyond the past Damien shared with my best friend, I could tell he was unto something with the information he was giving me."I hate to sound like a cop but I think I will have to ask you a few questions, you are the only one who is close to Clara and the only one who would happen to know about her different whereabouts.""That is fine by me."He responded with full commitment as he was eager to know the truth even if it meant spilling the dirty secrets of his beloved wife, I had to keep a straight face to hide my interest."Where was she at the time of the crime and yourself of course."I began with the most basic and important questions, I kept my eagerness to know more from him as I was taking notes of his answers to run my investigation after the meeting."We were both at the park by the time, just getting ready to go home

    THE DETECTIVEI sat in my office with a cigar in my hand, the only thing that could help me focus as my mind was filled up with so many possible instances leading to the murder case.The very thought of how this case came into existence is the only thing that bothered me the most, so much work to be done but with very little evidence."Leonard in my office now."My grumpy captain passed my desk like an angel of death, I knew his call was not just to chit-chat but to piss me off somehow.I entered the office after him ready to face anything he would throw at me with an emotionless expression, I wore that look every single time to make him look dumb each time he tried to irritate me and for some reason, it always seemed to work."You asked for me, sir?"I uttered in an attempt to draw his attention back to my presence as he was browsing through his work desk, he was always looking for something he seemed to misplace and still didn't find."You can wipe that look from your face Leonard,

    THE DETECTIVEI could tell that the captain was watching me as I walked out of the building, he knew he had gotten to me and somehow I had to come back with some good news, or else he would have my neck."Why do I get the intuition that the already examined crime scene could hold more to this case than I thought"I thought to myself as I drove through the cold, I made my way to the crime scene just before I received a call from a very unexpected person."This better be important Armando 'cause I almost lost my mind while having a fallout with my captain."I responded to him with a tone that showed how desperate I was to see the case through, stating my mind just before I gave him the chance to reveal what he had to say."I have a lead on the case and I think it is just that you need to take the investigation to the next stage, tell me where you are and I will come to meet you.""That would not be necessary Armando, It will not be a nice scene when someone sees a detective with a stra

    MICHIGAN"Get the documents ready and come over, I need to sign it as soon as possible."I said to my lawyer over the phone as I prepared to take extra caution towards shutting out both Clara and Damien from reaching me, sooner or later one of them would come to beg or boost before me.I could not bring myself to believe that Damien had no hand in the case, for some reason I always held him accountable for not just his actions but also that of Clara's."Something tells me that he still has no idea how the case came about."I thought to myself as I lost focus on the present moment, he walked into the courtroom rather confused and surprised which is something he doesn't do much.My hate for him still clouded the slightest chance of thinking that he has no idea whatsoever about the case, for all we know it could be Clara just manipulating him as well.Just as I pondered on what seemed like a dead end to me, I was jolted back to reality by the sound of the doorbell as I turned to the door

    MICHIGANI responded as I was still trying to grasp how he was able to locate my home and even get as far as the door."How were you able to find my home?"I asked as my curiosity would not let me think straight and that happened to be the very question ringing in my head, I looked at him in utter surprise."I did my research after our last meeting and it is not that hard to find someone as high in standards as you, I hope your assistant is not around?""Which assistant is that, are you referring to Armando?"Another discovery he made stunned me, I had to be more careful around him as he was still a stranger to me and I did not want to ignite something that would cause him to act irrationally."What did you want to tell me, you might as well make it quick cause Armando could be back any minute from now."I uttered to him as I still did not trust him no matter how good he made his presence seem, Clara left him in a bad shape but it's safe to say that I do not know what he is capable of

    ARMANDOI took off with the detective as we made our way to the location the old lady gave us, my mind was in another place and time as I pondered on the very truth behind all that was happening.Could this be another dead lead or the very path that could lead to uncovering the truth once and for all?"I thought to myself with my head against the glass of the car window, a worried expression dawned on my face as I indulged my mind in its work."You have got something on your mind, if it is useful spill."The detective said as my silence screamed for help from my seat, he saw the countenance on my face and knew exactly what I was on about."Do you have any doubts about this lead or is it just me I do not know but for some reason I just feel that I am being a bit too heightened about this lead?"My words resonated with the worry that clouded my mind as I spoke to the detective, my eyes were still on the passing vehicles outside the car as I awaited his response."This is part of what my

    MICHIGAN"Very well then, you seem to have a lot of knowledge about the relationship between the sisters."She responded with a more relaxed tone as she hinted at her approval of our presence, she believed my story and placed her book on the table beside her."Thank you for giving us an audience Miss Flora, we won't take much of your time."The detective said as he took out his book and pen to jot down the important parts, we took seats and sat across her.She looked at the detective with a sharp gaze showing her disapproval of taking down any information on paper, the presence of the detective was not all okay with her but she let it slide."This is a private investigation Miss Flora and we understand your relationship with Clara but I will need to write some things down, you can be rest assured that nothing will be left here to the police."The detective said to Miss Flora as he assured her of what she needed to hear, his tone mirrored mine as he tried to get her to trust him too."

    MICHIGANI rushed to the city hospital as soon as I could, my mind was ringing with worry all through the way as I anticipated the possible outcomes of the accident.I could not help but think the worst as I sat with a tense countenance in the back seat of my car, the driver drove me as fast as he could as I ordered for his sharpness.We arrived at the hospital just in time as Paul was carried in a stretcher, I ran out of my car and I finally let the tensed version of me that sat in the car take over."Is that Paul!?"I screamed in an audible tone as I tried to draw the attention of the nurses to myself, they could not ignore my calling as I yelled to the full extent of my lungs."Nurse I am here for Paul, is that him?"One of the nurses held me back as the rest took Paul into the nearest room available, I could not help but want to barge in with the nurses as I was so curious to know his wellbeing."Will he be fine nurse?"I asked the nurse with the same worried expression I had worn

    MICHIGANA few weeks later after the incident at Damien's mansion, I felt sick and became bedridden due to a very unusual flu which I ignored at the start.I thought deeply as to where that moment of fantasy would lead me and Damien, it felt different as I embraced the mutual feeling we both shared and gave in to my heart's deepest desire.The flu kept me from work and doing anything productive leaving me with no other option than to hire a maid. I was too stubborn to go to the hospital as I feared that I would have to spend days thereafter testing.Just as I sat in my room with my wipes on my side and my nose as red as that of the red reindeer, my maid walked into the room and there seemed to be someone at the door as well."Someone is here to see you madam.""Come in."I responded with anticipation as I watched the door to see who it was, surprisingly I saw Damien walk into the room with flowers in his hand.His expression changed when she saw the drain look on my face that hinted a

    DAMIENThe death of my father was more than a shock to me as I still could not grasp the level of the situation. What I felt in the aftermath of my father's death was indescribable.I would sometimes be lost in my mind each time I thought about his death, it would seem as if I had lost my mind and driven to madness.A few friends of my father had gathered in the mansion to mourn him after the burial, and countless people all came to me to say the same thing over and over again.It became infuriating but I had no other option than to keep up and put up an understanding face. I left the main room where all the guests were gathered to the outskirts of the mansion.To my greatest surprise, I saw the most unexpected guest I didn't think would come, I watched as she walked out of her car and her driver drove off to park the vehicle."Michigan."I stuttered as I still could not believe my eyes as I saw her in a black dress approach where I stood, she looked even more beautiful in the dress.

    ARMANDOI looked at the letter that weakened me from the very moment I saw it, a letter from my long-lost family.All my life I never thought that this day would come when I would meet my people again, a cluster of emotions raided my mind as I couldn't help but feel an outburst of happiness and sadness at the same time.The name I had made for myself as well as Michigan made it easier for anyone to find us as well as my long-lost parents."What about Michigan?"The one thought that made me think straight in the fog of all those emotions, I spent so much time with her as we became a crucial part of each other and I could not help but feel what this message would do to her once she heard.I closed my eyes as tears dripped down my cheeks, there was only one road for me to take and it would be a painful one but the best for us both.I walked into Michigan's office after leaving my desk with a different sense of being, I took my steps slowly in an attempt to find the right words to disclos

    CLARAI could not help the fact that my meeting with Paul caught me off-guard as I did not expect anything like the outcome of what I encountered, it made me drive with a worried mind."Why do I keep getting this intuition that something wrong would happen?"I thought aloud in the car as I drove alone, the exact words rang through my mind as I approached the end of my destination.Arriving at the mansion with the same worried and troubled countenance as I walked up to the door, the mansion appeared even more quiet than usual as I stood at the door surprised."What is going on here Damien?"I asked as I saw him sit in anticipation and with a menacing look on his face, he sipped the glass of juice before bringing himself to speak to me."Look at those test results, all the answers you need are in there."He spoke in such a calm tone which made the situation even more frightening as I touched the test slip on the table. He watched me like a predator waiting for me to make the wrong move

    ARMANDOTo my greatest surprise, she did not even seem fazed by the fact that I was with Paul, it was almost as if she knew about us the entire time which I highly doubted."Why am I not surprised to see the right-hand man or should I say servant of Michigan, you guys do make quite the duo after all."She spoke with a sense of calmness as none of what had happened seemed to catch her by surprise, even with the element of surprise on our side she was not moved."I haven't got all day Paul, If you have something to say to me you might as well go on with it or save us the stress of having such an absurd meeting.""I did not come here to banter words with you Clara for that time is far behind me, you decided that you do not want me in Benjamin's life knowing fully well that he is my son and not Damien's."I watched as Paul poured out his mind to Clara in a tone that I never heard him use until the moment he accepted the gruesome fate that Clara presented him with."I will leave his life b

I got the drug lord to talk and he confessed to his crimes."The detective said as he revealed the concluding aspects of the investigation, one thing was still ringing in my mind and I waited for him to finish the reveal before I asked."There is still one part of the investigation which seems like you skipped it, it's the part that concerns Michigan and happened to the same thing that linked her to the case.""I was just getting there, the drug lord also revealed that he was working with Clara whose sole aim was to frame your boss for the crime while the main plan was to kill Paul."Such a full disclosure was certain to drive one into a state of unparalleled shock, I stood my ground in disbelief as I slowly assimilated the information that shook me."it is now up to you guys if you will press charges against her or not, you

They were more than ready to give him as much needed time as possible to recover."We will find time to get his classmates and the staff to visit him, my regards to him.""Will do, madam."I responded to the headmistress as I hung up after seeing the presence of one who completely changed my neutralized countenance, someone who needed to be here but not the type I would expect to arrive at anything early."Where is he, where is my son?"Clara asked as she walked straight to the room I was standing close to, I stopped her from entering as the nurse was still administering his medication."Hold your horses right there, you barge in demanding to see a son you didn't even bother to check on before driving off to some busi

    DAMIENAfter a day of nonstop paperwork even as the owner of the company, I returned to my mansion with a weighted expression and a tired countenance.All I needed was rest at the moment, nothing more nothing less as I crawled out of the car, trying to lift my entire body and the briefcase I held in hand."Nancy!"I called out to Benjamin's nanny as she was the only maid in the house before crashing into the nearest couch I could find in the living room, loosening my tie as I awaited her arrival.After a few minutes of no response, I decided to call her as I had no more strength left in me to call out at the fullest extent of my lungs."Where are you, Nancy?" I asked immediately if she picked up my call, "I have been calling you since I got back and you are nowhere to be found.""I went to the store to pick up something that Mrs. Clara ordered, she asked me to rush down here a few minutes before you called sir."It was not of her own doing as the task sounded exactly like something Cl

To my greatest surprise, the officer caught him before he could get on his feet, cuffing him up as he could not pull any more tricks out of the bag."You nearly got killed in there, I hope this goose chase you were about to take us on was not for nothing or else you will have me to answer?"The suspect did not want to answer as he held a bold and overconfident expression with me, he wanted to make this even harder than it already was but I knew just what to do to get to him.I drove them back
