I looked to my right and saw Jimmy and the inspector there. I walked over to them and asked Jimmy "Did you finish the questioning?"
"Ah, yeah that's right." He replied lost in thought.
"This way, madam." Inspector Leon said.
I smiled and followed the inspector.
"Who were you with between twelve and three o'clock?"
"I was with Jimmy, as in Jim. I came here in the morning and Jimmy came up to me and we were together the rest of the day til now."
"Did you notice anything strange when you were with Jim?"
"There is a silhouette inside the beach house behind me and every time I look at the house that silhouette is there. There was also someone who was standing in the same spot of the crime scene when Jimmy came up to me. He was just standing there and wasn't moving."
"Was there footprints from the person standing at the crime scene?"
"Yes, I think there were footprints I think the footprints were from the direction of the beach house."
"Thank you madam."
After giving information to the police they concluded that the case as an accident. Some of the campers, fishers and visitors stayed behind and went off in their own groups while the others left because of the incident.
Jimmy and I stayed at the beach and we were waiting for the special surprise he wanted to show me. We laid down side by side staring up at the orange but blue sky with navy blue clouds. It seemed like the special surprise is the sunset or was it? I thought as I looked at Jimmy who on the left of me. He turned to me and smiled.
"Hey Aimee, the sun is setting now. Look!" Jimmy said.
I slowly got up off my back and looked at the scenery in front of us. The sun was ready to set. As we watched the shining sun move behind the horizon, it casted a yellow and orange glow which reflected onto the ocean water lighting up the whole beach. The sun glowed as if connecting to us and giving us power and strength, waking up the world. Time seemed to have stopped for the world to see this, well, not actually the whole world.
