The office was dark as it had always been but today, it felt even darker. All the curtains were down and the bulbs in the room had been turned off, the only one left was the one which hung low directly above the desk and it was dim. The ceiling to floor windows which lined the entire wall behind the desk were left totally covered, except for a little space where the curtain was left hanging open to allow the littlest of light stream in.
The only person that could come in here and order that the curtains be tied back up was not here, and she would never be coming back here. The pain of never having to see Stacey ever again caused his heart to ache, the doctor had said that it was a miracle he had not suffered a heart attack and his blood pressure was quickly rising.
Colin Hunt sat on the large leather seat facing the back windows and seemingly lost in thoughts, he was the strong man of Skyline group, the grand f

Tuesday, the 10th of May. 01:04pm. “So how did you know him?” Chester asked Tia as he drove her to the station. Break time was over and he knew that she would have to get back to work although he really wished that she could spend the whole day with him. “Huh? Who?” She faced him. He glanced at her from the corner of his eyes, he really did not know how to ask this without it sounding odd. She could mistake it for him being jealous and maybe he was but what was there to be jealous of? “The Michael guy earlier, how did you know him?” “Oh, him.” She smiled and looked ahead. “I met him at Skyline club, he was kind of like my saviour at the time.” Chester looked confused. “Your saviour? How?” “Well, there was this guy who was half drunk and would not stop bugging me. I was almost ready to give him a punch right across the jaw to dislocate it but Michael stepped in at the right time and prevented that from happening.”

Wednesday, the 11th of May.09:11am.It was much too early to be on a stake out and why did it have to be her? She munched away angrily at the bag of corn chips she held in her hand and whining about how it lacked the flavoured taste it once had when the product had first been launched. This morning was cold and chilly and just too quiet, nothing happened around here and the officer she was with assured her that it was just this neighbourhood, it was kind of like a dead zone. No life.They sat in the warm car a well hidden distance from the Neil’s house, they were to keep an eye out for Trisha, to monitor her movements and maybe bait the serial killer. That part Tia did not really take down comfortably, the part of using Trisha as bait, but then Aiden had assured her that she would not come to any harm as long as they had her in their sights.The officer seated in the driver’s seat beside her yawned and she wondered if he had gotten any

Wednesday, the 11th of May.10:30am.Sometimes it takes a little sacrifice to get what you want and he knew that he would eventually get just what he had been waiting for all night and even up to this morning. He yawned and stretched, he had not slept a wink last night and his back was all cramped up, he could feel that his bottom was now numb and his legs could use a good walk but he could not leave. Hr could not step out from the car now and risk being seen.He squeezed his eyes shut and opened them, blinking rapidly to clear his vision. He checked the time on his dash board, the girl was late already, how difficult was it to leave the house any way? He focused on the house and although he was parked so far away to avoid being detected, most especially by the police men who sat in their car so close to the house, he could see clearly without the help of a binocular. He watched the windows and the doors, waiting for her to sneak out of the house but still

Wednesday, the 11th of May. 12:54pm. “He is one hot man, is he not?” Tia heard from behind her and turned to see Blair smirking at her. ”What? Who?” She was momentarily confused. Blair nodded her head in the direction that the car had driven off from. “I am talking about him, the man you were so engrossed in.” It hit Tia and she chuckled, shaking her head. “Oh that? No, no, he just looked familiar somehow.” “Hmm…” Blair replied and Tia knew that she did not believe her one bit. She sighed and nodded, she had not come all the way here to argue with a love lost woman who was having a crush on one of her bosses. “He is the first son of the Hunt, you know?” Blair said and Tia raised her eye brows in mild surprise. “Really?” “Yeah, he was on the news at that time, he returned not so long ago and ugh…! is he not the dreamiest?” Tia forced a smile and nodded. “Hmm… yes.” Focus. “Blair I actually came here

Wednesday, the 11th of May. 07:12pm. She was done with work for today and she was as tired as tired could be, all she could imagine right now was some warm food and her really soft bed and a really long night with the best sleep she would have in a while. Aiden had left much earlier, said he had some important things to deal with and she had just nodded when he told her. The day was still some how bright when she stepped out of the building but the thunder that rumbled in the distance assured her that the dark clouds would soon be rolling in, it would rain tonight and she would be wrapped up and warm in bed. She sighed excitedly as she imagined the scenario, her smiling face as she slept, she could not wait to get home. As she descended the few flight of stairs in front of the building, she spotted Chester leaning on the side of his car, his arms crossed and his head down, on a closer look she noticed that his eyes were closed but his head nodded slowly

Thursday, the 12th of May.08:33am.The sun light filtered in through the closed windows, striking Chester in the face and causing him to wake up, he grunted and tried to roll over but his hand was trapped and something beside him stirred, he opened his eyes with a frown on his face to see that he was beside a still sleeping woman and everything came to him. He smiled, he was not used to waking up with someone beside him and so close to him too but he was happy that this was not a dream, he was sure he had dreamt of her all through the night.She had her back pressed to him and he could almost feel her skin through the thin shirt she still had on. She barely had on. The shirt had dropped around her shoulder and lower down her arm, exposing her neck, shoulder and a little of her back, he could not stop staring.“How could I have gotten you?” He asked himself but spoke out loud in a soft voice. He watched her body rise and fall as she brea

Thursday, the 12th of May.11:01 amShe had over slept and she knew that she had but this was one of those mornings in which she really never wanted to get out of bed, most especially right now because she felt safe, secured and loved in the arms of Chester whose hot breath fanned the back of her neck. His breathing was steady and gentle and she knew that he was still fast asleep, she wanted to turn around to look at his sleeping face because she had slept with her back to him and him spooning her, but she did not want to wake him up so she just remained like that, a big grin on her face which she tried to hide by pulling the covers up over her face.His arm around her waist twitched a little and he took in a really deep breath, his heaving chest pushing against her back before settling down and into the normal rhythm of his steady breathing. Her hands moved, tracing over his which was around her waist, she traced her fingers down to his and clasped them togethe

Monday, the 16th of May.01:12 pmThe pain was minimal but he felt it, it was the first thing he felt when his eyes opened because it throbbed, and so did his head. It was a little too bright in here so he could only open his eyes slowly until they could adjust to the brightness. He took in a deep breath, enjoying the flow of air through his lungs but what he did not like was the smell that flowed with it, it smelled of drugs and medicine. He moved his arm and only then did he realize that somebody’s head was resting on it, he turned his head and the person lifted hers, he was surprised seeing her there beside him but he was also happy. He smiled.“Chester,” She said, standing up close beside him and holding on to his hand. “Are you alright? Feeling much better?”“Tia, you’re here?” He wanted to sit up but she held him down to the bed, he winced.“You’re hurt, stay, don’t move.&rdquo

Saturday 14th of May02:02 pm.Chester did not look surprised at all by what Aiden had just revealed, although he had not known it before hand but he had made a guess, there were only two boys in the Hunt family; himself and Michael, so it was not that difficult to figure it out, but he story behind that, behind how Michael had come to live with them was a surprise no doubt, and he wondered if Michael already knew about it.Aiden got up and walked towards Daniel. “Well now that you all know the story and the reason I had to do this,” He turned directly to Tia who stood rooted to the ground in utter disbelief. He smiled. “You cannot leave this house alive, I’m afraid none of you will.”“Aiden,” Tia called him with a shaky voice. “My… my daughter Aiden… she’s only a child…”He waved a hand in the air to stop her. “I had no intentions to hurt her and I was not the o

Saturday 14th of May12:52 pm.The tension in the room weighed down on all of them, most of all Chester, who was on the ground with his grand father in his arms, he was pained and he was angry, the surprise of seeing the detective Aiden come into the room in support of Daniel who had shot his grand father, had vanished from his eyes, in its place was anger. Raw, mad anger and he was struggling to contain it. His eyes never left the detective as both of them glared at each other. More than anything, Chester wanted to storm over to him and rip his heart out and then he would deal with Daniel later.“You both look surprised.” Aiden said with a chuckle, glancing over at Tia who stared at him like she wanted to put a bullet in the middle of his head. “I know it is a lot to take in.”“Why are you doing this Aiden? You are a police detective.” Tia said.“This is the only reason I had become a detective Tia,
Undercover Crumbling
Saturday 14th of May12:12 pmThe ward was empty, the crumpled sheets suggested that she might have not been gone for so long but the fact was that she was not here and even the nurses did they know where she had gone to, and neither did they know when she had left the hospital. All her items were gone; the gun, her badge and her phone, Aiden was furious, how could a patient have left the hospital without anyone taking notice of it? But he did not bother to remain in the hospital after that, what was the use? She was not here.As he drove back to the station, he reasoned to dial her number, he needed to know where she must have gone to and what would have made her leave the hospital, she was still hurt and needed care and rest and it worried him. Maybe she had gone back to the station to talk with Chester to ask for her daughter’s whereabouts, she was a mother after all and if that was the reason she had left then it would make total sense, he understood t

Saturday, the 14th of May.10:34 am.The whole thing had gone south and totally not as how they had envisioned it to turn out, they had gone there just to make an inquiry and an arrest and had ended up not making any inquiry, arresting Chester Hunt and a police woman down. In the whole frenzy that had ensured earlier with Tia ripping out the face mask, one of grand father’s body guards had fired a shot in defense of Chester and that had hit Tia in the shoulder, bringing her down.Aiden sighed and paced the hospital room Tia was in, the nurse had said that she was unconscious and might be for a while, this was not how it was meant to go, he brought out his phone and placed a call to the one person whom he would blame for all this.“Where are you?” He asked in annoyance as soon as the person picked up the call, he was pretty upset as to how every thing had gone down.“In the house, with grand father.”Aiden seethe

Saturday, 14th of May 07:46 am. It was much too early for a face off and maybe a little bit too early to be angry but Chester could not care less, he was angry, he was upset, he was boiling, he was fuming and he could not keep calm. Not any more. Yesterday, Tia had been attacked and hurt when her daughter had gone missing and then it had been topped off by her partner who had called her to tell her that her daughter’s DNA sample had been found in the crime scene of the recent victim. Although he did not know what that meant, he knew it was pretty serious. He might not know who the killer was, but he had a suspect on who would have dared to kidnap Zara. The hotel had a twenty four seven hour service so he was sure that he would meet his grand father there whenever he went to his office in the hotel and right now, that was where he was headed to. He walked swiftly, his half hidden face contorted in a deep frown and every one was wise to stay clear off his path,

Friday, the 13th of May 07:43am. He knew what time they would be leaving the house, he had studied them, taking his time to map out their schedules and time. He also knew what time the bus left the station there to get here and he had been right on time. He saw the bus pull up from the comfort of the car he was sitting in, and he watched it come to a stop with a low whistle, he watched the children get down and he waited until the bus started again, easing off the side and joining the traffic. He saw her, the little detective girl, skipping happily to school and accompanied by her friends, her mother did not come drop her off today, which meant that the girl would also be going home on her own as well. He smiled devilishly, every thing was just going way too smoothly for him and he could not be any happier. This would be all too easy for him to do and he knew that there was no way he would ever be caught. He looked on as the girl disappeared into the sc

Friday, the 13th of May 04:06am. The CCTV footage had come to them even earlier than they had thought that it would and Tia could not be any happier, it was the CCTV footage from Wagner park, the particular footage showing the entrance of the park where they had seen the tire marks and the police men had said that they had seen Trisha come in from that direction. Tia’s heart was in her throat as she watched the footage, she was so jittery that she could not sit, so she stood behind Aiden, her eyes wide open and her eye brows furrowed in a slight frown, focusing intently on what played on the screen. A black car had pulled up by the entrance to the park and entered only to stop still close to the entrance, a man got down from the driver’s side of the car, his face shielded by the mask he wore. Tia frowned even deeper but kept on watching. He went around the car to the other side and opened the passengers’ side door and got in, they were unable to see or
