Chapter 14
I opened my eyes slowly, still groggy from the 2 hours of sleep I had last night. I was up thinking about Ryan, crying about Ryan. How could he do it to me? After everything that I done for him? We kissed and it obviously meant nothing to him.
I got up thanking the lord that it was a saturday so I could spend all day at home thinking things through and clearing my head. Did this mean I was single now? Should I get back together with Jay? Somewhere in my heart I still loved Jay, he was always there for me and I missed him, he wasn't just my boyfriend he was also my best friend.
After having a shower I settled down in front of the TV with a bowl of cereal for breakfast to watch re runs of friends, something that could always cheer me up. I turned to the channel and saw that it was my favourtie episode.
"J'mapelle Claud" Said Pheobe.
"Je bla Pli plo" Joey tried to immitate. Instead of laughter I started to cry. This was the episode that my brother and I would always immitate everytime my mum's french friends came to our house. I turned my head to look at the picture on the table. It was my favourtie picture of me and Shaun. We were both grinning and I had my arms around Shauns neck. There was a drop of water on the photo. I touched my face after realising the tear had dropped from my face.
After one year the case was still open because the police were determined to find who had killed Shaun. The place where he was stabbed is still restricted with police tape and police went there everyday to check for anymore evidence but they had no luck.
Just as I got up the phone rang and I put my bowl down on the kitchen counter before running to answer the phone.
"Hello?" I said into the reciever.
"Hello, Can I speak to Ms James please?" Said the deep male voice on the other end.
"She's not here right now, this is her daughter speaking. Can i take a message?" I said in my formal phone voice.
"Oh, Zoe James?" Said the man.
"Yes"
"I'm calling from Bronter Police station, could you please come here immediately?" I panicked.
"Is there a problem?" I asked.
"No, we just have some important information about your brother's murder case." He said.
"I'll be there in 5 minutes." I said, I put the phone down and Ran upstairs to grab my coat before running outside and jumping in my car to get to the police station.
After a 5 minute drive I parked in a random spot before running inside to the guy at the desk. He was very attractive and dressed in the police uniform.
"How can I help you?" He smiled at me.
"I'm Zoe James.." I said and before I could finish he directed me towards a random desk. I went there to find an older looking guy.
"Hello, y ou must be Zoe" He extended his arm for me to shake "I'm constable Alan Green"
I took his hand and shook it nervously. We both took a seat on opposite sides of the table and I realised my hands were shaking like crazy.
"After recently speaking and looking around the area where your brother was murdered we found some evidence that we were wondering if you recognised." He said. "We found this peice of CCTV footage from the night and after zooming in and looking properly we can see a face of the person murdering your brother. Are you sure you want to see it?"
I nodded and took a deep breath while Alan put the dvd in the TV. The picture appeared and I saw my brother walking with his ipod in his ears. A tear spilled over from my eyes and ran down my cheeks, I wiped it away quickly. I needed to be strong for this. The video continued and there were a groups of boys walking towards Shaun. The video skipped and they were hitting him and eventually one of them had his hand up in the air.
"Here look" Alan said. He took the remote and zoomed in to the guy. His face was unclear but I could see the rest of his body. My heart nearly dropped to my stomach. That jacket was something I could never fail to recognise. I couldn't breathe for a moment. That jacket was the Jacket I got Jay for his birthday a week before that incident, I could never forget it because it cost me a lot and Jay was hinting about it for weeks before his birthday.
"Well? Do you recognise him?" Alan Green asked. I shook my head. I couldn't tell him anything until I was completely sure about whether or not Jay had murdered my brother.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
I walked out of the police station, got in my car and drove back home. I needed to get my head sorted, this was all just too pianful.
I knew Jay didn't like Shaun but he would never murder him would he? But then again he always got uncomfortable everytime I spoke about him and he would try and change the subject. He was at the party that night and he definately got drunk but that doesn't mean he killed my brother right?
I ran into the house and up to Shaun's old room. I shut the door behind me and sat on the bed and eventually lay there sobbing into his pillow. I got up and traced my hands across the table and the chair. I found his Jacket behind the door and I put it on and hugged it close, feeling like Shaun was hugging me. If only.
I found his photo album and as soon as I opened it a peice of paper fell out. I closed the photo album and picked up the paper. I opened the peice of paper, it was anote to himself that read:
'Visit Caleb and Ryan. 55 mayson place Greensdown'
I sucked in my breath. It couldn't be Caleb and Ryan I knew? They were drug dealers? This couldn't be right. But if it was they would have some idea about whether or not Jay was involved. There was only one way to find out.
I had to speak to Caleb.
