"Evelyn- you cant lie down like that, how are you breathing." I say, she mumbles something and sticks her middle finger out making me chuckle.

She was upset that she misplaced one of her stuffed animals and now she's laying face first on the bed.

I lay next to her and rub her back, she finally looks at me "did you find it.." she says, i shake my head "not yet angel, but I'll go look again okay?" I say pecking her head she nods before laying faced first again.

Is this how she spends her day off? Maybe. I walk downstairs looking for this stuffed animal she can't find.

She told me it was one of her favorites so it matters to her, since when do you care about stuffed animals. Since it's Evelyn's.

I look around the kitchen looking for the stuffed animal that's named "banana" obviously it wasn't in any boxes since she everything was unpacked but i still checked to boxes.

Luckily I hadn't thrown any out, I grab the stuffed monkey before walking back upstairs.

"Ev." I say, she picks her head up "if banana isn't in your arms then respectfully leave me alone." She says before laying faced first again.

I sigh "will you at least look at me" I say, I smile seeing her turn towards me, her eyes widened seeing the stuffed animal in my hand she gets up and hugs me.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you." She says making me chuckle "also I'm sorry for making you look around." She says i shake my head.

"It was in one of the boxes you must've dropped it, it's not your fault Evelyn." I say softly she smiled and pecked my lips.

So far her quitting alcohol has been okay, of course there's days where she tries to drink but I help her fight the urge.

And everytime she resist the urge she adds a crystal to a jar since she said she loves them a lot.

I was proud of her, proud of her for quitting that shit and proud of her for getting better slowly.

She still has the nightmares but they were slowly leaving her mind.

Evelyn lays back on the bed holding the stuffed animal I smile before laying next to her and I move her hair out of her face.

My eyes flicker to the jar and seeing it's almost halfway, she resists that urge a lot..

A small smile is on her face as she falls asleep sure it was the afternoon but she works late a lot so that's why.

I kiss her head and grab my computer looking at it, I'm still trying to figure out who's killed them, going back there didn't give me any answers.

Although someone was definitely there recently considering Sydney being there.

But what was suspicious is the fact that Claire and Cesare were there, and knew of that place.

I type away on my computer to see if I can get any answers.

I didn't want to wake Evelyn up so I got up and went to the guest room

*A few Hours later*

I wanted to find more things about Evelyn, but I also wanted to find out who killed Devon and Marcus.

I had to do more digging to find out who killed them.

They were supposed to my kill, I was supposed to torture them like they tortured her.

After a while I finally had names of possible suspects my eyes flicker to one of their last names.

Alastair Diaz.
