Lost in Paradise

Chapter 18: Epilogue

As you know, this is the last chapter. You guys will hate me forever but oh well.

Also, Zonnique died. :) hahahaha. But um yeah. Let's get to da story thoughhhhhhh.

Kari's p.o.v.

We did it. We killed Zonnique. I watched as she slowly started to die. I didn't feel guilty at all. She deserved it. She tried to kill my kids for Pete's sake! Jacob looked like he had just seen a ghost when he saw me standing in the door way watching her die. 

"We did it Kari." He said, slowly walking towards me.

"I know.." I whispered. I stared at her lifeless body. My once good friend, my now sworn enemy, is dead. I don't want anyone to know about this.

"Jacob. We need to take her to her house and make it seem like she died in her house." He nodded and went to untie her. "Hurry Jake." I watched as he put his gloves on.

"Help me Kari!" He yelled, struggling to pick her up. "She's heavy as hell." I walked towards them slowly.

"Hurry Kari. Grab her arms. I'll take her legs." He said grabbing her legs. "On the count of three, lift her up. 1.....2......3." We lifted her up at the same time and walked towards the car and threw her in. I saw Jacob walk back in the house, then he walked back out with the gun and empty needles and the knife.

"I'll follow behind you Kari. Go!" He said, running to his car. I nodded, knowing he couldn't see me. I drove back down the gravel drive way and got onto the street. I did it. I killed Zonnique Jailee Pullins.

Ray's p.o.v.

I didn't even realize Kari left. She's been gone for hours now. I tried calling her but she left her phone here. I guess I'll just have to wait until she gets here.

I decided to call Asiya and see if she was with her. "Hey Asiya?"

"Yeah?"

"Do you know where Kari is?"

"Uh. N-No. Why wassup?" She said, with a shaky tone.

"Asiya. Are you lying?"

"No. I don't know where she is. Ok? Bye." She hung up before I could respond. She knows something I don't know, and I'm going to find out.

Kari's p.o.v.

We dropped Zonnique off at her house. Luckily, it was in a secluded area so no one saw us leave or go in. I was on my way back home when I saw Ray's car drive up beside me. I rolled down my window as we came to a stop light.

"Kari. Where the hell have you been? I got comments on my pictures saying you went to the movies with Jawan." I opened my mouth, ready to say something but the light turned green. I drove up a few feet until I saw a parking lot. I pulled over, as did Ray. I rolled down my window as Ray hoped out of his Audi 5000.

"Where have you been Kari?" I looked down at my hands.

"I told you was going out. You ignored me." I mumbled.

"Did you or did you not go to the movies with Jawan?"I looked back up at him and shook my head.

"Alright Kari. I'll see you back at home." He said, walking back to his car. I drove off and decided to go to Santa Monica Pier. I needed some alone time. I took off my shoes and walked in the sand, and felt the warm sand sink in between my toes. I walked towards the water and stared at the sunset. It was beautiful.

"Perfect picture babe." I turned around and saw Ray standing a few feet away from me, holding my camera.

"Ray. You followed me here?" I said, holding my stomach.
