Zuri's pov

le début du pire

I sat in the corner of the dark room with my knees to my chest and my head resting on it, I was praying for Kathy's life.

"Oh much can a person take?" I asked myself.

Boom!

I froze as I heard the gunshot only assuming the worst had happened, he had killed her and it was my fault. Tears began to run down my face as I began to hyperventilate, my heart felt heavy and it felt like I couldn't breathe. The young woman who had dreams and hopes was just murdered for nothing absolutely nothing, and I'm tired of being useless, im tired of being a burden and causing the deaths of innocence.

" Kill me too!" I cried out. The pain in my heart and the anger as well was slowly growing, for Chase there's nothing more than hate, hate I feel nothing but hate for that monster. The way he pretend like he had no choice but to kill others was beyond aggravating. He then open the door and I covered my wet face from him,I couldn't stand the sight of him any more.

" Don't be like that Zuri... why can't you just love me? Why can't you stop trying to escape ?" He then walked to me and sighed and I  brace myself more against the wall. " Baby....just.."

" Stop!" I yelled out. " Did you kill her ?" I asked as I looked at him knowing the answer was yes.

" Zuri.. you know damn well that I did ." He said and after he said that I couldn't control this rage anymore so I stood up and slapped him. " Zu-" I slapped him again. " Sto-" I then slapped him even harder.

" You bastard !" I then began to hit him while I cried uncontrollably. " You animal !" Thinking he would punch me or hurt me I was surprised that all he did was forced me into a hug, I tried to hit his back but gave up when I realized that he wasn't feeling it. I rest my head on his chest and began to cry softly, his warmth was somewhat comforting. These feelings that I have were confusing, how could I possibly feel comfort in embracing this monster. " Wh- why can't you kill me....?"

" Because I love you... I love you so much Zuri." He then hugged me tighter. " I can't lose you  and I will never let you go." With those words I began to cry I harder .

Detective Thomas's pov

After spending days trying to get information on Chase Laurent I was about to give up until I came up with an idea. I was going to visit his old home , I read that he still resides there.

" mais inspecteur, tu n'as pas besoin d'un mandat ?" The young police man asked. " ( But inspector don't you need a warrant for that?)

"je vais m'en procurer un mais je vais d'abord lui poser quelques questions. après avoir effectué la recherche." He explained. Surely it will be difficult to get the warrant but they must give it to him after he explain the reasons of his suspicions and the fact that Zuri had called her boss and mention Chase Laurent. ( im going to get one but first ill ask him some questions and after I will conduct the search.)

Third person's POV

It's been two days since Chase had killed Kathy but Zuri was still bed ridden due to it. She hasn't left her bed in two days and refuse to eat, shower and even watch television. She believe that her life wasn't worth the sacrifice of Kathy and because of that she didn't feel like she deserved basic needs. Chase had try to let her eat and shower but because he realize that she was slowly mentally deteriorating and he didn't want to pressure her. He wanted to give her some time to grieve, to let it all out before he ask the big question. He went into the kitchen and decided that Zuri definitely need to eat today and it wasn't healthy that she was starving herself, he can understand her not wanting to get out of bed but he refuse to accept the fact that she isn't eating . After cooking up a quick dish he walked into her room with a tray carrying  onion soup and a glass of lemonade.
