"You've reached the emergency service what service do you require?"

'Hello, my..my brother is dead', shivered Tessa's voice over the phone.

"Ma'am I'd like you to state your address and name please"

'Tessa Winterbury and my brother is Tony Winterbury and the address is..............'

She stated the address and the police and an ambulance arrived within very few minutes.
She was helpless and shivering from head to toe, their mother was dead she killed herself when Tessa was only four, and their father had gone on a business trip to Australia.

'Tony.........', she couldn't collect her words to finish the sentence.
'What's wrong honey.....what...did he do something again?'
'No...Tony.....Tony was stabbed to death', and she let out a loud wail.

The person on the other end froze when Tessa finished her sentence.
