WHO KILLED HER?
Charlotte stood up, almost knocking off the chair she was sitting on. Both of them in the room stared at her like dealing with some devil. She frightened both of them just with her fierce look. All these situations wake her to another tough face inside her.
“I think you could sit down. I won’t be telling your personal issues to anyone. It’s none of my business.” The lady clearly told, looking a little frightened.
“Iam not going to sit down. Thanks for understanding” Charlotte folded her hands across her chest. She’s ready to escape the room once the fingerprints got matched.
“Um... the fingerprints are...” the man trailed off, looking at the computer. Charlotte holds her breath, waiting for him to finish.
“It's not a match. You can go. Sorry for troubling you,” he finished, giving Charlotte shock and confusion. She doesn’t know whether to feel glad or further overthink about this. She simply nodded her head and walked away, slamming the door shut. When she got out, Caleb and Chloe are waiting for her outside the classroom. They still stayed even after every teacher glared at them for bunking the class.
For a second, Charlotte moved towards them. No one spoke any word. There’s utter silence.
“Not a match,” Charlotte muttered, waiting for their reaction. Chloe’s face relaxed and Caleb looked perplexed and gave a doubtful expression.
“Tell me you are kidding?” Caleb asked, looking at the room like expecting someone to arrest them.
“No. I don’t know how it’s possible, but I feel so doubtful about this. It’s not possible at all.”
“Whatever. We need to face this. For now, we are safe. I will tell Caroline.” Caleb started texting on his phone and Chloe looked at Charlotte in hesitation to ask a question.
“Charlotte, did you do something to get rid of fingerprints?”
“What? If I did, I would tell you. There’s no reason to hide things like this. We didn’t even clean the bloodstain, and no one touched the bat other than me.” Charlotte explained, coming closer to her sister in anger for asking something stupid.
“Lower your voice. Do I need to remember you every time?” Caleb growled and looked in every direction. Some teachers are the only ones wandering in the hall and Charlotte’s friend Scott entered for the investigation. There is checking every teacher. They may stay in school till they checked everyone.
“Okay. Let me tell you why did I think like that. If you are the only one who touched it and you three forgot to destroy the evidence. That means someone else has touched it.” Chloe explained.
“Little sister, I never know you can think like that. You really have a point.” Caleb appreciated and Insulted Chloe at the same time.
“But we were there at the exact point without moving. So, there’s no chance of someone touching the body.” Charlotte said and thought about the day once again.
“You are wrong. We all left to check where to hide the body.” Caleb’s voice is barely audible. When he said that, Charlotte recalled it. Caleb is right. But who will come and do something to Becca in a short time?
“I think we just dig out how many enemies did Becca had,” Charlotte suggested, tapping her foot.
“Right now, Caroline is telling us to go to our work till the school gets over.” Caleb showed his phone.
Caroline: Are you all gone insane? Escaping from this issue is a miracle and you all are talking about the homecoming day murder in the middle of the corridor. For god’s sake go to your damn classes.
“Hide that. You don’t need to show it like this.” Charlotte grabbed his phone and locked it.
“Group dismissed.” Charlotte gave his phone, and they all went in different directions.
.....
Caroline kept pacing outside the cafe. It’s already evening, her work is over now she’s about to go home and need to think about Becca’s case. The fingerprint object won’t go wrong. There’s no change in it. She started to have more doubts. She replayed everything that happened in homecoming. Suddenly her phone rang and to her astonishment it’s Daniel.
She cleared her throat and attended it." Hello, Daniel,"
“Hey, Caroline. I hope you are free now. Can we meet?” he eagerly asked.
“I... Iam still not finished with my works. You should have told me earlier.” she lied for the purpose of knowing how he will reply.
“Aww... Iam has done with my shooting right now. I thought I could see it. If not, it’s okay. I will meet you next month.”
“No. Next month? It’s too long. Iam done with my works. Iam free.” She blurted.
“But you told you to have work. Iam not going to disturb you.” he smiled.
“But... Iam...” she sounded disappointed.
“Iam kidding. My guard is outside the Roshord high.” Daniel’s already prepared for taking her to his mansion again. This is going to be the second time Care’s going to his mansion.
“Wow... You are pre-planned for everything.” She got excited and walked outside to the entrance. Then she remembered she forgot to say bye to Bill. If she went without telling, he will surely ask her. She can’t tell him ‘I'm going to spend time with Daniel in his mansion'.
“Iam here. I can see a...” Care stuttered while talking with Daniel by seeing a Ferrari car outside waiting for her. She never travelled in a costly car. It will take all her life to buy it.
“What happened? Isn't my guard right on time?” Daniel, on the other side, sounded angry.
“No. This car is got to be costlier. I never ever seen this in real.”
“You got to see more like this. For now, I will hang up. My guards will take you to the shooting spot. From there, we will go to my mansion. See you soon.” He hung up and Care approached the guard, who opened the door without even asking anything. They already knew Caroline. The girl slapped an actor in front of everyone.
JEALOUS GIRL Finally, Caroline reached the shooting spot in Daniel’s Ferrari. She stepped outside and the Guards were standing beside her. She can’t spot Daniel anywhere. The place has a beach set up with all the technicians, cameras, etc... At the time, it looks like the shooting is over. Everyone is leaving. Care even expected to see any other favourite actress. Cause there are many known celebrities who are engaged in some conversation. The shooting is done outside the building. She really wants to explore the shooting area and the building. Care hopes one day Daniel will take her inside to show how the movie’s being taken. “Where is Daniel?” Care asked the guard. “He will come.” He replied with a stern look. Care waited for over fifteen minutes, not seeing Daniel. Finally, she saw him coming out of the building. She thought of waving at him, but she noticed he’s talking with some other woman. It’s not just a woman, she’s a popular actress w
I LOVE YOU Care blinked her eyes for a few minutes. She can’t believe she wrongly entered his bedroom. She was supposed to go to his office room. Now she can’t turn her feet away from this room. There’s a luxury black bed, some photos of Daniel hanging on the wall. She approached his childhood photo. ‘Daniel is so adorable,’ Care muttered seeing it. Daniel has a six-year-old kid standing on the Playground giving poses to the photo. That’s the only childhood pic. Another portrait caught her eyes. It’s his drawing at his current age. It’s so perfectly painted. Seeing paintings gives her a reminder of Chloe. She is talented too. Other than photos, there’s a laptop and some documents neatly arranged on his desk in a corner. If he already has an office, why keep it in this room. The room is painted in White and every object looked like it’s worth a million dollars. “What are you doing here, Caroline?” Daniel’s voice alerted Care. She turned towards the do
GAME ON Care shrieked, seeing Michael interrupted him. His entry embarrassed Michael. “Iam so…sorry... sir.” he stammered with the coffee cup is still in his hands. “Michael, get out now. I don’t need coffee.” Daniel shouted and Michael ran after closing the door. “Who wants coffee when I can have you.” Daniel touched Care’s cheek. He started kissing again and his hands travelled inside her top. She stopped kissing and looked at him. “Let’s take it slow.” “No offence. I can wait for you. Iam so happy right now. You accepted my proposal. Iam happy to have you as my girlfriend.” he lay next to her by facing each other closely. “Daniel Evans is my boyfriend. You don’t know how happy Iam.” she smiled at him, placing her hand on his chest, feeling his heartbeat. “But I have one condition.” “What’s that? Everything is going well.” he got panicked by her condition. “Nothing serious. I
Becca’s body or saves Jason ‘What can I do right now? I need to decide quickly. I can stay in prison for years, but I can’t lose Jason forever. Iam thinks Iam in love with him within this short period of time’ Charlotte thought to herself and called 911. Soon she reached the destination, and the ambulance arrived before she did. She ran and came all by herself to see Jason’s car on the edge of a bridge. It’s in a state of falling from the long heights. If it moved one inch, Jason’s life is over. “Jason” Charlotte screamed from the top of her lungs, running towards the car while some men stopped her. “Don’t go there. It’s not safe. The rescue team has already arrived.” That stranger consulted her while Charlotte was sobbing continuously. She never cried like this in her life. Not even for their parents dead, or for murdering Becca. The moon started to show up in the sky. The car is so invisible to other eyes to notice. I
Someone involved in this murder case “Thank you, Doctor.” Charlotte rushed inside while Care waited outside, giving her some time alone with him. “Hey, how are you feeling?” she asked, holding his hands lightly. There’s a bandage on his right hand and his head. She’s at least happy that the threatener didn’t kill him. “Iam good now. “He smiled weakly. He’s too weak to speak, but he’s hesitating to tell something. Charlotte looked at him, still with tears on her face. “Did you cry, char?” he asked slowly, trying to sit. “Maybe I did.” she lied, trying not to show it. She never cried like this before. It’s even unbelievable to her. “You don’t need to lie, Charlotte. Please don’t cry. Iam perfectly alright.” he assured her even in that difficult situation. “I know. I know but you are not perfectly alright,” she said, wiping her tears. “Then I will be perfectly alright soon and I heard what y
Chloe’s worst day The four of them shared the silence and finally looked at the phone. Ruby: I know you all been thinking about me. You all need to be happy that I didn’t tell you are the murderers to anyone. But don’t doubt for a second that I killed Becca. That’s such a stupid thought. Anyway, you will probably wonder how Iam. M. W is my short name. Find me if you can. It’s not that hard to find me when you all can murder and bury a girl. I will be waiting for the day when you uncover me, but that would be your last day. Have a good day with me in your dreams. “We can never get rid of this threatener but Iam not afraid of him. If I ever find him, I will kill him before he kills us,” Charlotte snarled. “Keep your voice low, Charlotte. The threatener must be somewhere near us. M.W knows everything. We can’t talk here.” Caroline firmly said. How did M.W know everything they talked about a few
Doubts “Chloe, get up. Get up. I am here with you, little sis. Don’t cry,” Chloe finally got up from the worst nightmare, which doesn’t seem like a dream at all. She looked at Caleb, who looked more terrific than her. “Oh god, finally you woke up,” he hugged her happily. She took a deep breath and tried to remember what happened after she tried to touch Becca’s hand. But the part seems empty. Plus, how did Caleb come inside when the door was locked? Did Becca was really there last night? “Did you get any bad dreams?” He asked her sitting next to her in her bed. “Yeah, I did. I don’t want to talk about that but Iam happy that you woke me up,” she told him with tears in her eyes. She’s still crying. The night sky changed to morning and there’s no need to be afraid anymore. “You should have called me if you are so afraid. I would have stayed with you in your room.” He said, gettin
unexpected things can happen “Iam back, Scott,” Charlotte told him once she’s out of the room. “Yeah. So, what was I saying?” He asked her, after being distracted by his inner thoughts. He’s been waiting for her for so long in the hospital. Best friends know whenever their friend needs help or a companion. “I was about to tell you about Roshord high. It’s closed.” He said after she took a seat next to him outside Jason’s room. “Yeah. After Becca’s murder case and finding her body, the school decided not to open it until it’s over,” He explained. ‘That means the school will start once Iam in jail,’ she thought to herself and smiled nodded outside. “Thanks for coming, Scott. I really needed a companion right at this time. I can’t able to bear Jason’s accident. Now I regret one thing...” She trailed off, holding his hands. “What’s that? Don’t hesitate, Charlotte. You can tell me whatever you have in your
A few minutes later, Scott stopped breathing. He’s dead for real.“That’s enough, Ruby. Give me the knife.” Caleb snatched it away from her. It almost has cut his palm in the force.“First of all, how did you even get a knife?”“I found a lot of knives in this room. I got one before Scott came here.” Ruby replied. On the other side, Charlotte was crying so hard.“Please, don’t leave me, Jason. You don’t deserve to die.” She sobbed, hugging him. Jason is too weak to reply to her.“Call 911. Jason’s dying.” Charlotte ordered her siblings. Caleb heard her and took his phone. Will it be too late?“What are we going to do with the body? Should be hidden this murder too?” Caroline asked with fear.“No. The game’s over. There’s no point in repeating the same mistakes again and again.” Ruby said wisely.“Then what are you suggesting, Ruby?” Chloe asked.
Ruby went down the stairs as Charlotte and Chloe followed her. Without having much of a choice, Caleb, Caroline, and Jason followed them. They all ended up in a single room full of many monitors, full black suits in a closet, some electronics like laptops, tabs, cables etc... Caroline stepped carefully without getting trapped in the cables.“Is this Scott’s place to monitor us?” Caroline asked.“What the fuck are you talking about?” Charlotte asked, in complete shock. Her sister hasn’t told the truth yet.“Scott is the threatener, Char. We are sure of it.” Caleb said, without a doubt.“Wow, a teacher is capable of all these things. His death is coming closer.” Ruby surely said. At the same moment, the large monitor in the middle of the room lightened up.“Congratulations, Caleb. You are right. It’s me, Scott. All this time. By the way, I’m not the one who’s going to die. It’s going to be you,
“Scott? Charlotte’s best friend. The one who came to see her in the court.” Caleb asked for clarification.“Yeah, it’s him. How is he related to Becca? What’s his relationship with her? If Char knows something, she would have told us,” Care wondered and saw someone standing alone on the road.“Is it Jason? Am I right? Can you stop the car, Cal?” she asked as her brother did what she said.“Hey, what are you doing here? Is there any problem?” she asked from the window.“Um...yes...no. I’m not in any trouble. I was just lost in thoughts. I was about to reach home. What are you doing here? You both can’t wander anywhere while the threatener can be anywhere.”“We know. We...” Care turned to her brother. “Can we get help from him in searching all this evidence?”“Do you think it’s a good idea? We can’t get him in any trouble again.”“Yeah. I don’t know but I feel like we sho
“So, what are we doing now?” Chloe asked while keenly entering all the rooms in their house and looking for cameras.“We are going to Becca’s house. How many times do I have to say this?”Caleb let out a sign and made his way out of their house.“Without a plan?” Care questioned.“We will figure it out on the way,” He replied. Everyone joined him in the car except Chloe.“Hey, aren’t you coming?” Char asked.“No. We really have to find the secret basement and the cameras. I can’t take my mind off it since Ruby said it.”“But we can’t leave you here all alone. Come with us,” Care said. But Chloe is stubborn this time.“I guess someone has to be with her. It’s time for a split-up,” Charlotte said, getting out of the car.They all agreed. Care and Caleb are on their way to Ruby’s house.“So, what’s your plan? Do you have one?”
I couldn’t believe. That the threatener had a secret basement in their own house. The siblings are ready to find the basement. First, they have to cross the first challenge. Trail in the court. It was pretty rough. All they got to have is hope. The undefeatable hope. The anxiety continues to rule in the court until the siblings heard the most important word ever. The one word that could make them feel happier after an eternity.“.... Not guilty,”The siblings almost yelled in happiness and hugged each other. The lawyer looked at them with satisfaction and he glanced back at Daniel. Who’s the reason for their happiness.Caroline broke into her hug with Char and approached Daniel. “Thank you so much. I will never forget this. Ever in my life. I thought everything’s over.... but then...” she got emotional.“Hey, it’s okay. Everything’s alright now. Hereafter, you all even get to be safe from the threatener.
“Stop your useless argument and warnings. No one’s going to do anything to anyone.” Care shouted from her throat.“Why would you think so less of me?” Char asked.“It’s not about that. Right now, this is not the right conversation.”“I will get to the point. We need help from you, Ruby. And you won’t be saying ‘no’ to that. I’m sure of it,” Care added.“Really? What’s your request? Let me hear it.”“We four of us will be out of prison after the trial in the court. Since the killer is standing right in front of me, we will be free in some weeks. Plus, what Charlotte did was self-defence and we will even get extra protection in our house to protect us from the threatener. The detective is searching for him without sleep...”“Okay. Stop it. Come to the point. I don’t want to hear all your advantages,” Ruby interrupted her.“Fine. Tell me everything you know about MW. Tell
Meanwhile, Jason was talking with Charlotte. He can only wish to be in jail with her. On the other side, Ian came to visit Chloe. Chloe’s mood brightened after seeing Ian, but her fury grew after seeing another person.“What’s up, Chloe? Do you like it here?” Taylor spoke on the telephone.“What are you doing here? You already ruined my life. What else do you want?”“I want nothing. I just came to see you as a friend,”“Friend? Those days passed a long time ago.” Chloe laughed. All that Chloe can do is imagine herself breaking the glass without them and beat Taylor. She imagined herself killing Taylor with cold-blooded hands. Even if she’s not capable of it, she can change herself.“What are you thinking?” Taylor snapped her fingers.“Nothing. Just wishing that you could die one day,”.....Caleb preferred not to talk with anyone. He’s not even ready to meet
“Hey there, friends. What are you all talking about?” Ruby interrupted the four of them after she finished her enquiry with the detective.“First of all, we are not your friends. Whatever we are talking about is none of your business. Do you understand, Ruby?” Caroline said.“Nope. I don’t. We all were friends once. Why can’t it happen again?”“Because you betrayed us,” Caleb replied. Ruby stared at him and left. Soon, they were back in the cell. There’s no hope of getting out of here. At least for a while. But Ruby will be in jail for more than a year. She deserves it. That’s all anyone could say.Finally, the day has arrived. When all the siblings got a chance to meet their friends. Whoever is willing to see them.Caroline took the telephone, watching Daniel on the other side through the glass. Yes, it’s Daniel, and he’s here to see her.“Hey,” he spoke on the telephone, unsure o
“What?” the detective raised her eyebrows.“My sister Caroline got a threatening message from an unknown person named Mysterious wickedman. He’s the only one who knows that we killed Becca the very next day. He asked her to meet in an abandoned house near the graveyard. At the same time, my brother Caleb was at the place too. That Bastard tried to kill both of them. But somehow, they escaped by jumping from the window with some injuries. That was just the beginning. He did a lot to us.”“So, what’s his name again? Do you even recognize him? I hope you are not fooling me with an imaginary story,”“What the hell? Do I look like lying? We are all close to death every single day due to him.” Charlotte stood up, shouting at the detective.“Then what do you expect me to do? I can’t believe everything just like that. I’m supposed to seek evidence. Or else how would I even get this job?” She shouted back. They bo
