In which Pip urged herself to discover the unfounded truth of Andie Bells case for her EPQ.
She started from what she knew.
She needed an interview from Ravi himself.In an attempt to interview Ravi he turned her away almost in...
Pip was having a prolonged crying session once leaving the Hastings social function after her dispute with Cara as they were leaving.
Maintaining her long face, her eyes were burning with a blotchy red shade, along with an unintentional amount of tears streaming out her eyes as she strutted down the street towards the Singhs house.
Trying to eliminate the thought of Andie bell from her head.
Without changing from her silver,sparkled,star costume,she had concluded that she was going to head to the Singhs house without another thought.
As she was banging on their door,Ravi Singhs mother opened it.
Looking at Pippa as if she had gone mentally insane while being high on some sort of drug considering the reddened eyes,with gems stuck on the outer and the inner part of them.
In fact she was quite drunken from her interview with Max Hastings.
"Hi."Pip spoke with a tipsy and teethy smile. "Hi."The woman said,not returning the smile as she was deeply examine the outfit 'choice' the girl was wearing.
"Is Alexander here? I have some important information for him."Pip informed the lady as she thinned her lips.
"From the galaxy far far away?"She remarked as a smile slightly crept at the corner of her mouth. "No.."Pip squinted "I live on Martinsend way."The drunken brunette informed her awkwardly.
"Come in."She ordered as she motioned her arm into the house. "Sorry.."Pip whispered as she shuffled past the woman in an attempt not to hit her with the costume.
As the door shut Pippa paused, her eyes scanned over the variety of framed photos placed across the chestnut brown shelf.
It was like Alexander didn't have a family of his own, almost every photo of the Singh brothers included him,there were even some framed photos of him by himself.
"Alexander!"She called,as Pips eyes moved towards the wooden door she was stood at.
Hearing loud footsteps approach her eyes traveled to the stairs where Alexander was stood,his hands leaning against the top of door frame as his eyes moved to the frowning Pippa.
His brows curled as he turned to the woman "She said she has some important information for you." She said as the boy dragged his feet towards Pippa.
"Hi.."she delicately said,only to receive what she would call an apathetic look,and what he and anyone else would call a benevolent look.
"I came to tell you something."She explained,her tone came of more shaken than expected. "Is it that you've completely lost your mind?"he asked,a small smile pulling his frown upwards.
"What?"Pippa asked in a befuddled tone as he looked her up and down as she did the same she had clocked onto what he meant.
"Oh..."she light-heartedly chuckled. "Why are you here?"He asked dropping the sweetness that was previously in his voice.
Pip stood silent before actually speaking "I..came.. to say that I'm sorry.I want you and Ravi to know that it wasn't just a school project for me..I always believed that Sal was innocent."
"So you declared to yourself that you would become a knight and save the Singh family?"As the words left his mouth Pippa immediately shook her head.
"No! No-I didn't think that."She assured hun before loudly sighing and looking to the side at the wooden ground.
"This was a stupid mistake,I shouldn't have come."she whispered to herself,the sting in her eyes returning as she licked her lips in awkwardness before accidentally clocking eyes with the boy.
Pip turned her back,as she went to reach for the handle Alex spoke. "Hey."he said as she shuffled awkwardly to turn back around and face him.
"Why do you think he was innocent?"he asked the girl awkwardly biting down on her lip. "I knew Sal,he was always kind to me.He never would've done anything to hurt her."
Hearing the explanation from her point of view and not Ravi's made his opinions shift, "Come with me."he nodded towards the door that led upstairs as she leaned on the wall to kick off her shoes while he waited for her.
Pip shuffled through the door frame while he ducked beneath it. The lock clicked as he held open the door to the bedroom,waiting for her to enter before closing it.
The bed was empty and everything was packed into boxes and containers and stacked up in a corner. After a minute or two of staring at the emptied out room,she looked up at the boy towering over her before looking down to the phone in his hand.
"It's Sals."he informed her as she took it from his possession,clicking on the text between Sal and his dad.

It was me.I did it.I'm so sorry.
"The confession."Pip spoke, "it was me.I did it.I'm so sorry."she read aloud before furrowing her brows as she re read the text.
"The grammar.."She remarked "the last text the punctuation is perfect,but the others-" "Sal was smart,but he texted like an idiot."Alex informed her,Pip paused before her eyes slightly widened.
"He didn't write the confession."She declared,before looking up at the boy behind her "So if he didn't write it,who did?"
"I guess that's what we're gonna find out."He read as she lightly laughed for a second before turning back to the phone and smiling.
