"Here, happy birthday!"

Celine gave me a rose with a dark shade of purple. I love roses, and i love the color dark purple. It's really, elegant and i feel relaxed when i look at it.

"Thanks Celine, by the way, have you heard that Nicholas was found dead in the backyard of Mr. Colt?"

"Oh yes, that poor thing. He was a really good friend of ours. What happened to Mr. Colt?"

"He was sent to the court because he pledged guilty"

"So he was the one who killed Nicholas?"

"I think so, and also... it's been 2 weeks since there's been nonstop killing in our school, i'm..... i'm scared. Who knows who the killer is gonna kill next?"

"Me too...."

"And also, did you know that everytime the police finds a body, they have black roses stuck in their mouth?"

"What?! that's kind of disgusting!"

"And maybe you forgot celine, my father is an investigator. And well, the suspect gave black roses to the ones who died before they died."

I looked at her. She gave me nothing, a poker face.

"And you're saying that?"

"Right now, at your house. The police are searching the victims that you've kidnapped, and you're going to kill. Correct?"

"Bestie...you know me so well"
She grinned like a psychopath.

"You killed them, why? And why the black roses?"

She laughed maniacally.

"Guess bestie, you know me so well don't you?"

We heard the sirens wailing just outisde my house.

"The police are outside celine. You can't escape"

"Oh no bestie, i'm not trying to escape"

She laughed again

"Then that's good, you should surrender."

"Oh wait, one more thing, remember the thing i gave you just before this.... this amusing conversation"

"The....black rose"

"Yes, and well as you explained just now that, the killer gives a black rose to its victim before she kills them"
She grinned widely

Suddenly, i felt like i couldn't breath and... my vision is getting blurry.

"Veronica, as you die.... remember the things we did together because well, those were the times i put a unique poison everytime we ate. And that poison.... grows in your stomach and turns into... a black rose. Your favorite!"

The police kicked the door and put handcuffs on celine. She didn't flinch or did anything....like a typical psychopath would do. She just.... stood and grinned at me widely.

"RIP Veronica"

-The end
