"Dad." Riley addressed at her father.

Harry was reading newspaper, eyes never living the tabloid. "Enjoying the day?"

She shook her head. But her mind was somewhere else. Somewhere dangerous. Killing someone is never easy. And if that person is your father then...

She released a small breath. Her heart was drumming in her chest..

Lub Dub Lub

This could be her end. But she needs to do something before everything is over. Before she becomes a goner.

Her honey hued orbs shifted restlessly.

"You are thinking something."

She blinked back to reality.

"Have you heard the news?" She locked her gaze with the elder man.

"There's always news."

She smiled faintly. Always so portentous.

"About the grave? That it is robbed?" She pressed further, trying to see if he had any ounce of integrity left in him. Would he admit the truth?

"Don't believe those heedless news Riley. And even that ever happened you should not worry over dead people." Harry stated tonelessly.

She just couldn't believe what he was saying. So unkind.. how?

"I am so tired of your words!" Her hands hit the table as she stood up. Her emotions flared like fire.

"You said the same thing when mom died! How could you? Don't you have any humanity left?" She whispered the last part.

"This is the part of universe. Death is always fated. You can't stop it." He said calmly and stood up from his sit. He had this conversation before with someone else and the outcome turned out ugly. He didn't want it to occur once more.

"Killing someone is not the part of nature!" She said in a shaky tone.

And that's what caught his interest. He slowly turned back.

"What do you mean?" Harry asked.

"Stop acting. I know everything. I know your tainted secret. I know that you are the one who killed mom! That weren't accidents, they were planned murders! And you have a big hand in this. Even those graves are bare because of your filthy mindset!"

He looked at her without any emotion as if he had heard those words a hundred times from hundred foolish people who didn't understand his ideals. They argued. They tried to show reasons. They screamed that he was insane. But what happened at the end? They died.

Her whole body shook. Tears burned the corner of her eyes. Disgust, hatred and shock gripped her.

"I'm gonna kill you." She took out the gun from her jacket and pointed it towards him. Her finger settled on the trigger.

Harry was bored as ever. He felt nothing. No fear. No adrenaline. No thoughts of death. He have overcome that stage a long time ago.

"Do it." He said. "Pull the trigger Riley. Kill your dad. Be a murderer."

Her blurry eyes narrowed.

"Do you think that your mother will want this?"

"Shut up!" She screamed and dragged the trigger.

The gun jerked back as the bullet rushed out but it unfortunately didn't hit its target.

"Why did you kill her?" She whispered. "Why?" Her voice broke.
