"Chief!" Donna said as she walked up to Clay Burke, holding a file.

"Yes Donna? you arrived earlier than usual." Clay said as he drank his morning coffee.

Donna handed him the file.

Clay noticed a look of urgency on Donna's face, so without question, he opened the file and checked what it was.

"The pictures were taken an hour after the-"

"Suicide, haven't seen one of these in awhile..." Clay said, interrupting Donna

the file said...

'Name: Davidson'

'Age: 27'

'Time of death: 10:46 PM'

'Cause of death: Suicide'

Nothing else was on the file except for a picture of the persons face, gender, which was male, and a picture of the body.

"Poor guy, seemed like he lived alone." Clay said putting the items back in the file, handing it back to Donna.

"Thats true...we looked and didnt find any sign of family. How did you guess?" The police officer said confusedly.

"When you handle this cases a lot, you get to know a bit of the person, as if you were their friend, just from looking at the pictures i could tell what kind of person he was, a sad one." Clay said as he finished his coffee.

Donna had a look of surprise on her face, but Clay looked unphased.


At the house the suicide took place, Donna was checking the house for evidence incase this was infact not a suicide. But she didnt find anything out of the oridinary, not even a note.

"A sad life...no family...i wish he was alive so we could give him a chance.." Donna said as she closed a drawer. Not seeing anything else after checking the house, she got a body bag from the cop car, and put Davidson's body in it.

"This was a quick one..we will find you a good place to rest.." Donna said as she closed the body bag.

The clock reached 12 AM, the police department had closed, Clay was the last one to leave.

"Donna said she didnt find anything, so she took care of the body and got someone to find a nice place for it." Clay said looking to a police officer that was waiting for him.

"Well a lonely life with no one there for you will do things to you" Alice said, locking her car door.

"Not driving home?" Clay said looking to the policd officer.

"Nah, i need the walk, it can do some good. See ya." Alice said as she walked toward a store close by.

"Have a good one." Clay decided he would walk home as well, hopeing Carlton wouldn't mind the wait.
