'Thank you,' Jess said as they pulled up at Tabitha's house. The car journey had been long, and she rubbed at her eyes.
She was tired.
Tired of her so called friends.
Tired of Charity and her disturbing drawings.
And tired of the day.
It had been pointless and only added to her mounting questions.
'I lied to your lawyer earlier,' he announced. 'I said I wouldn't ask you questions.'
'But you've got something to ask me?'
'We haven't announced it yet, but we recovered three bodies from the science building.'
Jess's mouth fell open. She was sure her sister had no idea. If she had, she would have told her.
'There wasn't time to call Ash,' he said in answer to her unspoken thoughts.
'Have they been identified?'
'Not yet. Whatever DNA can be taken by the pathology team will be compared to what we have on the system. We'll also be running dental records, but it will be another day until we know for sure.'
'So what do you need from me?'
'Would you mind if we do this inside?' The Deputy looked around. A dog walker passed, barely glancing at them, but it didn't stop the Deputy turning his head. He grabbed a jacket from the back and slung it over his uniform. As a disguise, it was a poor one, but at least he wasn't driving his police cruiser.
They headed inside, where Tabitha was waiting to greet them.
'Your sister said there was a good chance you'd come here. How is she?'
'Under questioning,' Jess replied.
'This just isn't on.' She glowered at the Deputy.
'To the Sheriff, she's the only lead they have,' he defended.
'That's because they've not even considered anyone else,' Tabitha huffed.
'That's why I want to talk to Jess,' he reasoned.
The older woman pursed her lips but shuffled away on her cane to hold the door open for them.
'You'd better make sure these two girls are okay. They don't need this.'
'I'm doing my best, ma'am.'
Tabitha just grumbled under her breath and split off into the living room, sensing that her presence wasn't required.
'I'll take a mug of Ash's lemon and ginger tea,' she yelled before they could shut the kitchen door.
Jess lifted down the mugs and put the water to boil before turning around. 'What did you need to ask?'
