I sighed and set my pen down. Amelia has been dead for two years now. What happened? Well, after my episode and figuring out what to do, I came up with a plan.

She killed herself.

Everything fell into play as well since the Sheriff also thought she was off the wall. I had taken her to her house and hung her up in her bathroom to make it look like she had killed herself.

After that, I wrote a goodbye note. I kept myself included and even added Theo. To sell it I texted him from her phone asking for help and for him to answer.

Which he responded with nothing since that would have been a dent. Why? Because Theo is dead and of he's dead that would mean if I had responded then they would look into him as a suspect or would want to talk to him.

I had to get rid of his phone.

Oh, and another thing I found. That little locked drawer of hers that had been in her desk, had two bottles of description pills for depression.

Why was she depressed? Because she grew up a prodigy. How do I know this? Little Amelia had a diary of her own, right with where those pills were.

She wrote about me, saying how much she found me attractive in the beginning and how much she loved my food. It made me smile upon reading.

However, her tone changed when she suspected me of breaking into her house and doing things to her. I did, but she doubted herself multiple times over and over. Which only gave me more of an advantage on her sanity.

And as for how how they foubd her? I called it in. Risky, sure, but I just said I was her cousin calling in for a wellfare check to make sure she was okay.

Worked like a gem. 

Checkmate for me I guess.

I got up from my seat and went down to the kitchen. I open the fridge door and took out the apple pie I made last night. My life is back to where it started. Only now I don't have a job.

I don't mind it since I've got money but, I like working. I cut me a piece of pie and gazed out my kitchen window. My eyes went over to Amelia's house and my throat closed up.

I can't believe she's gone. I sighed and forced myself to eat the sweet treat.

Suddenly a car pulled up with a van following behind it, a moving van. My brows knotted as I watched closely. The car and van stopped right in front of Amelia's house and I grew even more interested.

The door of the grey Honda Civic opened and out stepped a woman. Her skin is rich like the dark chocolate I see in the store, her body is shaped perfectly and her hair, the longest locs I've ever seen.

There are white beads styled in her hair as well. The guy out of the moving truck stepped out and she pointed towards the house. He nodded shortly and she pranced up the pathway.

I want to see her face, I need to see her face. Her hips and hair alone is not enough. I want to know what this woman looks like.

No.

No. I can't, I can't fall for anyone else. My new neighbour stepped back outside and I could finally get a good look at her face. Her lips are darker than her skin and my heart skipped beats.

Telling by the shape of her arms and her stance, I can tell she works out.

She stood to the side of the yard, watching the two men lift and carry her things into the house.

Once they were out of view she looked my way. Her eyes held sterness and is that authority? It doesn't matter what emotion it was she gave me, but I know it stirred something inside of me.

I raised my hand and waved with a smile. She looked away and went inside. I didn't know it but I was smiling like an idiot.

I shouldn't fall for her, I shouldn't feel the way I am feeling now, but I can tell already that she is going to make me fall for her. If not...I might just obsess over her.
