A Story To Be Untold

Chapter 8: The Secret

I opened my eyes and was in total shock. Everyone was around me too. I just sit there and try to put things together then say "it was all set up", then get up and into the kitchen and make myself some coffee, without any hesitation. Everyone else just shocked, and also follow me.

"Babe, are you okay? What the fuck do you mean it was all set up?" Bradley asked, concerned and confused.

" Joseph, he knew I was awake that night. I know he has a partner" I responded.

Everyone looked shocked, thety just stood there and looked at me like I was crazy, like what I said was just beyond reality.

"What do you mean? A partner?  I thought we already knew that?"

"Yes, up stairs,  but he couldn't have thrown the rock through the window because that was in the front of the house where they enetered, there was also two foot prints leading to the back, but I remember Harold also saying there was three in the front of the house to begin with. When I closed my eyes, I was back in my room and saw the rock being thrown, it was at close range, and they stood there for awhile then walked away, before I opened my eyes, I heard someone talking in mom and dad's room, but I wasn't sure what it was about or with whom talking".
Maybe I can remember more now to make this all seem sense, maybe I can find some missing clues and shitto figure out what Joseph wanted from us. But is it even possible to blackout this much and relive certian memories? Because if so, I wanna figure out. I will do anything to not only understand why my family was killed and why my sister was kidnapped by a psychopath.

I see Harold take out his phone and procced to make some calls, Austin goes back to sit on the couch while Brad stays with me in the kitchen, his hand on mine as my aother is wrapped around the coffee cup; I can't imagine how he's taking this, like he got dragged into this at a young age and has to have his life ruined by me.

"Babe, I know you probably think that I should've left but first off, cause I see the look on oyur face right now. If I would've done that after what you went through I'd be a dick. Besides, I fucking love you Danny, okay? You need to worry about yourself and Crystal, because you both arer more important than me!"

I never felt so weak but so happy right now, as bad as I felt, I knew he was right, I need to focus keeping sane and making sure I get Crystal alive and safe, his thumb moving as he's holding my hand. Harold then come sinto the room and asks me to go down to the station with me since I'm remembering stuff from my parent's and brother's cold case. I follow him outside to my car and to the start to follow him to the station to go over some old evidence. I'm still confused by what just happened and what I thought I just witnessed. Who else could've helped Joseph and what does he even want from me. Now that I think about it, no one was actually making any noise while I was asleep, not even Crystal, and she' was a noisey baby. Then everything went black again.
