Why did it happen?

New beginnings

It has been a couple of months since  everything that happened. Damon and I are no longer together, it was tough for me for a while, but I moved on and so did he. He was the one who pulled away after his father's arrest, I tried to help him, but he was not in the right mind to listen to anyone. Right after he broke up with me, the company offered me a job abroad and I took it, but it just was not fulfilling enough for me. I quit my job and stayed in Europe. The place I was staying in was filled with crime. I got so frustrated to see a place that was run by criminals I wanted to join the police force, but they told me foreigners are not allowed to join their national task force.

I was left with no option but to become a private investigator. (P.I) It was depressing at first but when I passed my pi exam the fun finally began. I set up my office nearest to the police station so that I could get clients if the police turned them down for their help. I got my first client it was a mother looking for her son. She came to my office in the afternoon, looking worried, she introduced herself by saying “Hello pleased to meet you I'm Susan, I'm here to seek your help to look for my son he was supposed to come home yesterday from but I can't get a hold of him I went to the police they told me to wait 24 hours to search for him, but I can't wait he is my baby “ I told her not to worry and that I’m here to help here for this very situation.

I offered her some tea. She said that she preferred coffee. I didn’t have any coffee, but I told her we could go to the Cafe. She said OKAY. As we were going to the nearest café, she told me all about her son and how he just got a job and a couple of days and behaving strangely towards her, but she didn’t take much of it as she thought the new job was stressful for him. She stopped as she saw someone coming across the street from us. I asked her what happened. I need to know more about him to find him.

Susan whispered in my ear his name it was Adam Jensen and told me to find his boy and that he was in trouble. I asked her where her house was, she told me it was near the pier, and she could show me if I wanted, I told her I would be pleased. I drove near the pier she told me it was the red house and to take the car inside and the house had a garage. I took the car inside as I was, I heard a Noice, and I asked Susan if someone was inside the house, and she said no. I told her to wait in the car and as I was approaching the house, I heard the person running I went after them, but I couldn’t catch up.

I came back to the car and Susan was murdered in my car I called the police. They asked me how I knew Susan; I told them I didn’t. The police took me in for questioning, they thought I killed Susan, but I told them I wasn’t near the house when it happened, I told them to check the house front Cam security footage. They told me the camera was damaged and there was no footage of the murder.

I asked for my lawyer and told them they can't keep me here unless I'm charged with something, so they let me go by saying they are going to keep an eye on me. I dreaded this but it was time I finally had to do here it goes I picked up my mobile and called Damon. He picked up and said,” Hello who it is.” I couldn’t speak, I just froze as I heard his voice, and the memories just came rushing back. I hung up the phone. He called me back I picked up and he said,” I know it's you talk to me tell me why you called.” I finally dared to speak to him I said,” Hi, sorry for bothering you but I need your help could you come here.” He said," he could reach here in a couple of days and asked me what kind of trouble I was in this time.” I grinned as I answered him, a deadlock.

I waited for him to get here and started the solving process by doing a deep search on Susan and her son Adam Jensen. I found that they moved to Europe just a couple of days ago just the same time I did, and I found a picture of Adam, Susan and the strange man from the café. I analyzed his picture alone and found out that he was Susan's husband. His name was Will Jensen. He is a part of the drug-selling cartel in Europe. I couldn’t help but think that Adam's new job must have been in the cartel to help his father. 

Damon arrived. I went to pick him up from the airport. He was happy to see me as I was. I took him home on the way. I told him everything that happened in the past couple of days. He told me that the police didn’t have much evidence against me and that the only mistake I made was being found near the crime scene. I told him I didn’t even know if someone was after her. I asked if he wanted to stay with me since hotels are expensive, and he told me he didn’t want to be any trouble. I smiled and said nope. He stayed with me; I forgot how much I loved him. We went to the police station Damon argued my case and they told us that some new evidence was found at the crime scene. It was a bloody T-shirt of Adam’s and the murder weapon of Susan's case. I didn’t know them at all, but I can't help but wonder who killed Susan and why was she killed when I was there near her.

Damon told me not to say anything to the police and that he would find out more about the case. I couldn’t help myself and told them about Adam and his father. The police said that they already knew about it and asked me how I knew about that Damon told the police that I won't be answering that question. We left as Damon didn’t want them questioning me anymore. I was becoming restless, so I decided to stalk Will and he was nowhere to be found. So, I thought if I found Adam, I could find Will. I decided to rest. I asked Damon if he was angry at me since he didn’t talk to me on the ride over. He said,” This is why I couldn’t do it anymore with you always running into I can't always be here to help you and you never even cared to think what it does to me.” I told him I was sorry for dragging him into this, but I can't apologize for who I am. He told me he only ever cared about me and didn’t want me to get hurt. I told him not to worry about me and to take care of himself.

As I opened my door everything was messed up and someone broke into my house while I was away. I got so furious Damon told me to calm down and call the police. I just went through my things, and nothing was stolen except my files on the Jensen family. I panicked and told Damon what happened, he told me not to say anything to the police as I was not meant to have them. The police arrived and they told me to stay at the hotel just to keep things safe and that they would investigate my house as it is a crime scene. I told Damon to go to the hotel and stay there until I came.

I went to my office, and I hid a copy of the Jensen family file there, it was hidden under my chair, as I was kneeling and removing it from the chair. I heard gunshots and it was aimed straight at the office luckily, I survived since I was near the end of my table, but I was grazed near my arm. I ran from there as soon as the shooting stopped, and I couldn’t go to the hospital; since they will ask me where I got shot at, so I went to the hotel with some first aid supplies. I couldn’t tell Damon since he just told me to be safe. I knocked on the door as I was covering my wound with my jacket. He opened the door I told him that I wanted to use the restroom as he was making the bed to sleep. I went to the restroom and blood was covered all over my arm. I took a shower and cleaned the wound and applied some kind of solution to stop the bleeding and wrapped my arm with a bandage.

I came out and Damon knew something was wrong, but he didn’t say a word and went to sleep. The next morning, I was still asleep when he snuck out and brought us breakfast. He saw y hand and asked me what happened to your arm I told him I just fell down he did not believe me and turned the tv on it was the news channel. They were saying that my office was last night, and no one was there when it happened, but Damon knew last night, I went to pick my things up from my office. Damon got so furious with me for lying that he told me to find another lawyer and he is leaving town. I told him not to go as we were so close to finding who the killer was, but he didn’t have the urge to listen to me. He left a card from a friend of his who also was a lawyer.

I called Damons's friend and asked if he could help me as I can't afford to lose any time in the case since, they attacked me. Louis (Damon’s lawyer friend) told me he sure can, and he always wanted to meet me since he heard a lot about me from Damon. He had lots of intel on the drug cartel and told me that he was working with the FBI to catch them. I told him to meet me as soon as possible. He agreed and met me at the train station as it was crowed, and the police can't know who I'm talking to. I went and he told me to sit in one of the seats and that he would find me. I sat and he was nowhere to be found but then I heard his voice, he told me not to turn and he would simply just pass the files to me and that we should talk on the phone about the files. He left and told me to go after a few more moments before leaving.
