*chapter 24*

She was all I had and in the moment she was broken that she failed to even look at me, she was the only one with a strong personality but she couldn't do it anymore. "please can you just sit down and let us find a solution to this issue I put myself in. I really feel trapped and I don't think I will ever come out of it unless one of us dies." rudely said this and then just gave up on trying to convince her to do anything, her mind was made up and there was nothing I could about it.

" how do you even me to sit down when he is out there and you're here in a hospital bed with a disfigured face and how the hell would I just let this slide just that that. This is not love you're feeling, he's trapped you emotionally and making you feel like it's your duty to protect him. That's bullshit! "Julia said. She was not in her right mind.

We both kept quiet and had nothing to say to each other, after a few minutes the nurse came in with two police officers and I guess they were here for me and what had happened.

“Excuse me miss I’m sorry to disturb you but  the police are here to take your statement  about what happened to you”The nurse said  directing the two police officers  to enter  room

“Good morning Miss! so we are here to take your statement, so we are going to ask you a few questions and you're supposed to answer us based on what you can remember alright, don't stress yourself just tell us whatever may help us and hopefully we get to find the people who did this to you. ”One of the policeman smiled at me  just to make me feel comfortable.

To be honest I didn’t really want to talk about it knowing it would make everything worse. it was like it became part of me I know I will never forget this incidence and I will never heal from it, the physical wounds might heal but the scares will always be there as reminder each and every time I look at  myself in the mirror  I will always remember this unfortunate day and the sad part about it is that  the love of my life will be the one  playing the role of a villain.

"OK so let us now begin with taking your statement, I will need to answer the questions I'm going to be asking you. My colleague here will be writing down your statement then after we will take pictures of you for evidence, is that understood?" he asked me

" yes sir, I understand. "I answered politely.

" where were you on the night that the attack happened?" He asked while looking at me directly into my eyes.

" I was coming from the city café, that's where I work "I answered.

Before we went to Sean's house we passed through the café, I had left some of my books there so even if they were to go and question them I know George would agree that I was there last night. I had planned this well in my head and I thought of each and every possible way that I can make this look like an attack and nothing more than that.

" who were you with and what time was it? "he asked

" I was alone and it was around 8pm sir. "I replied

" can you please narrate to me what really happened, exactly what you remember having on that night. " he said these words like he was trying to make me say something that I was hiding and this made me a bit anxious and nervous.

I thought carefully about my words and what I was going to say say because any mistake I make right now will make everything worse and hope I don't forget my own words because they might use them against me.

"the only thing I remember is that I was walking then I just felt someone grab me by my hand and so sooner had I turned to see who it was than a gun was pointed at my forehead, they held me at gun point and in my head I thought they wanted to kill me. They were 3 guys and all had black face masks dressed in all black, the other one got my phone and purse and they asked if I had any money with me but I said no. After they figured I actually didn't have any money with me they started to beat me till I passed out. " I said trying to force the words out of my mouth. I couldn't believe how the lies just came flowing out of my mouth and to make it all believable I even shed some tears for the grand finale.

Julia looked at me and shook her head as a sign of disappointment and I was not proud ot myself either but I had to save the man I loved from going to jail.

"so how did you get here? Did anyone bring you or you made your way here by yourself?" the other police man asked and looked down on his paper prepared to write down what I was about to say.

"I actually slept on the road but early this morning some man I can't really recall his name but he found me and decided to bring me here and by then I had regained consciousness but was unable to stand or walk." I replied.

"did you like get his address, phone number or anything we can use to get hold of him? He asked

" no, no I didn't. I didn't think it was necessary all I did was thank him and he left. "I replied while I tried to wipe the fake tears off my face.

The police man then turned to the nurse and said" what of you, did you get the details of the man that had brought her here ".

" no we didn't, it's not part of our job sir, the only thing we needed was get in touch with her friends or family members since that man was  just a stranger. "the nurse replied

" alright miss, I think that's all for today. We just need to take pictures of you then it will be all done, we will start an investigation and we will inform you as soon as we find something useful. The camera man will be with you in a few minutes and wishing you a quick recovery "he said and added a smile and they both walked out of the room.
