HER TRUTH

Detective Adams could not believe her luck. Just this morning, she'd discussed nabbing Jerry Ishag with her partner but it was supposed to happen sometime later in the week. But somehow, Jerry Ishag ended up walking right into the trap that she'd set for him.She'd known since her right eye started twitching when they stepped into the clubhouse that something good was about to happen but never in her wildest imaginations had she imagined that it would be of such a large magnitude.Jerry Ishag turned out to be more polished than she'd assumed earlier. She'd assumed that he would have the roguish look of a thug because that was who he was; a thug who doubled as an assassin. But surprisingly, Jerry Ishag was none of those things.He was neatly dressed in a suit with blazers that screamed extravagance. Detective Adams could not help but judge him at first sight. How else could he afford to dress so expensive if not for the illegal jobs he did?He wasn't looking so bad. His face had the pe

NEW REVELATIONS

That night, Emily stayed awake till the early hours of dawn when she fell into a tired sleep. The sleep had only lasted for over two hours before a steamy sensation in her nose woke her up.Her eyes flickered open and she found Edmund sitting by her side on the bed, a bright smile on his face.The steaming sensation that she felt in her nose came from the hot cup of coffee that Edmund had fixed for her. She sat up slowly and returned his smile."W---What's going on?""Uhm—-Nothing. I thought you might need some coffee to start your day with."Emily gazed down at the mug and looked up again, tucking her hair behind her ears."Aren't you supposed to be at work?""I want to be with you.""Edmund!" It was a silent reprimand. "You can't just halt your life to be with me. You know you had a life before I came into the picture, right? Maybe it's high time you got back to it.""I'm not sure that's what I want right now."He had a foreboding look on his face like something was wrong or maybe h

A DAY TO REMEMBER

For a very long time, Ronnie Hartman would remember this day, the day when he was forced to talk about something he'd long swept under the carpet for the sake of his sanity. And now, Detective Adams was making him want to talk about it.But there was a problem. Talking about it was going to reveal a crime he'd committed. He was in a tight corner. Already, he'd begun to sweat, feeling the full weight of what he'd done come down on him.Could the earth just open up and swallow me already? He thought to himself. Meanwhile, Detective Adams was running out of patience."We don't have all day, Ronnie and quite frankly, you've wasted my time enough."Ronnie wiped the sweat off his face and took in a deep breath to calm his nerves. But it did nothing to calm him down. There was no escaping the hellish pain he was feeling. "You're right. Dre saw something she should not have seen but that doesn't mean that I would kill her to keep the truth hidden." He was appealing to Detective Adams' emotio

HIS BIG SECRET

Emily wasn't sure it was right or even due process for her to be allowed to speak with Ronnie inside a sealed room like the one they were in.Not that she'd been to a lot of police stations to see the people that she knew as nice law-abiding citizens being paraded like criminals but she'd seen way too many crime shows that showed her where outsiders spoke with arrested suspects and it wasn't inside a room like this.Something fishy was going down but she wasn't dwelling on that. She was dwelling on asking Ronnie why he messed up so badly. More than that, she was dwelling on how she was going to convince him to not reveal what had transpired between Dre and himself before her death.If he had but yet realized it, that would serve as a motive if it got into the wrong ears. She was quite certain that he was innocent and as such, her last duty to Dre would be to ensure that she got him out of the cell.If this didn't work, then she would resort to her backup plan. One thing was sure. Ronn

THE WITNESS

Like a deer caught in the headlights, Emily sat back and watched Ronnie explain in detail how Edmund hired him to monitor what she used her computer to do from the day she was employed in the firm.He went on to tell her that he'd successfully hacked into her system and was giving weekly reports to Edmund on what she did with it. At the end of it all, Emily could not readily find her voice. What maddened her the most was that the whole time, she saw Edmund as a friend, someone she could trust whereas he was probably laughing at her behind her back and thinking of what a fool she was.And she was indeed a fool. How could she miss the signs that Edmund was onto her? Surely, if she had looked more inwards instead of comfortably enjoying the treats that he gave her, she would have noticed that something was not right. But it was too late to retrace her steps now. Or was it?"How much exactly have you told Edmund?" She found herself asking Ronnie. Ronnie's fists folded like he was kneadi

THE NEW SUSPECT

Edmund Hamilton did not get himself this morning. Something was very wrong with him and yet, he couldn't figure out what exactly it was. And yet, just this morning, while he was with Emily, he was just as happy as any man could be but that happiness had disappeared the moment he stepped foot into his office. He wondered whether it had something to do with the fact that he had so much to hind away from the eyes of the world or whether it was because he could simply not get the guilt of what he'd done off his mind.Emily was not yet aware of it but when she finally caught wind of it, he knew she would be very mad and rightly so. What kind of man would betray her the way he was about to? Obviously the kind of man who didn't care about anyone but himself.At about 12 pm that afternoon, he received a call that lifted his spirits. It was from the regional manager of one of the smaller companies that were owned by Sheraton Group of Companies where he himself acted as the deputy CEO, pendin

THE BITTER TASTE OF FAILURE

For a man like Edmund Hamilton who was used to dishing out orders while others obeyed him to the letter, he didn't enjoy being ordered by the uniformed officer seating before him.The woman seemed to take pleasure in the fact that she kept him on his toes. Despite his attempts to conceal his fears, it was plainly written on his face that he was scared of what the outcome of this surprise visit meant for him.Beads of sweat gathered on his forehead and rolled down the sides of his face. When he finally opened his mouth to speak again, his two minutes had been exhausted."Whatever you think you have on me, I can assure you that it isn't real. Someone must have framed me for this."Detective Adams remained unfazed."Is that all you have to say?"Edmund inhaled deeply."Okay, fine. I can provide my alibi but not immediately. You have to give me some time to get in contact with him and explain what's going on to him.""Very well then," Detective Adams muttered. "I'm guessing it's nothing a

SACRIFICES

Jason could barely concentrate on anything. From the moment he heard the news, he'd become a shadow of himself, constantly worrying that things could go wrong very quickly.All it would take was a little slip and everything would be out in the open. The problem was that if the truth went out, things could never go back to being the same anymore.The newsrooms would be at his doorstep swarming like bees to hear his side of the story. They couldn't know about his involvement in this. It would tarnish his image forever.He rose from his feet, rubbed his palms together for the umpteenth time exhaled a heavy breath.

THE ALIBI

With every moment that passed, Candace Halm found herself becoming more and more interested in her boss's son, the young man whose case had brought her to the one place she'd not been in for a while.As the much older woman that she was, she wasn't much moved by his biceps or the fact that he constantly licked his lips while he spoke to her, something that the youngsters she'd come across with did a lot. She'd come to find out from her daughter that they thought it made them look cuter. Candace, however, found it annoying.It was his intelligence that captivated her and the way he was willing to explain things in the most profound way, also in a way that made him innocent. Because of course, in this case, he argued that he was innocent.Had he argued otherwise, there would not have been a need to continue the conversation. By the time Edmund was done giving his long profound speech about how he wanted her to do everything within her power to get him out of there, Candace had arrived a

THE ALIBI'S REPORT

The sharp rays of the sunlight cut into the room from the cracked window pane. It smelled morbid in here. Or maybe it was just his panic attacks setting in.He hated to be in cramped spaces. The doctors had diagnosed him as being claustrophobic but he'd refused to accept a simple statement written on a piece of paper as his sentence for life.So, against the protests of his body, he'd gone ahead and trained himself to get used to being in cramped spaces and not get all worked up about it. And for a long time, he thought he'd succeeded, until now.The detective had led him through a narrow hallway that burst into a single office at the end of the hallway. She opened the door and let him in. Then, she excused herself for a while, leaving him alone to himself.So many thoughts scattered through his mind as he awaited her return. Was she going to arrest him? Was that what this was? Was she keeping him here so that at the end of the day, she'd bring handcuffs and put them on his wrist?Sur
