A Mystery quest !

Mystery tears

"Who the hell are you?" Liza asked with frown on her face. The voice on the phone said,"I am Ben. Didn't recognise?" Liza went in deep thoughts. She was solving a mystery in her mind,"How the fuck can this be Ben? In the jail, the criminals or the ones behind the bars are not allowed to carry a cell phone inside. Who the hell is this asshole?" Liza asked herself.

She said,"You can't be Ben. The ones behind the bars are not permitted to take cell phones inside with them. Who are you then?" The voice said,"Well, I know that phones are not allowed inside but the very sweet man here in the station who is the manager here has given me his phone to call you. This is his number."

Liza said,"Ok, now what the fuck do you want?" The voice said,"I just wanted to appreciate your imperative skills of arresting your love by collecting leads against him. Great and commendable job."

Liza said,"You know what, I am going to come to the police station tommorow to kick the freak out of that bullshit manager who gave his phone to you."

The voice said hesitatingly, "No no. You don't have to come here. This is..." the call ended. Liza was amazed.

"He cut the call when I said him that I am going to come to the police station to see the manager. He was getting freaked out. Why on earth he has to freak out from this? Was that really Ben. The voice was same of Ben. The same voice had called me previously too in that letter incident. What the hell is going on?" Liza said to herself.

Then she continued,"Well, maybe I should just take a nap now and go to the police station tommorow and see what the matter is." Liza said and went to sleep.

Everything was dark. It was silent. Pretty silent. Damn silent.

But there was a noise of weeping. "Where is this noise coming from?" Liza asked herself. She called out,"Who is it?" There was no answer but the intensity of the weeping increased. Liza went around in the dark and followed the source of the noise. Then, to her surprise she saw him. She said,"You. Why the hell are you crying?"

No answer. She asked,"Lewis, tell me why are you shedding tears? Why are you so unhappy? I have caught your killer. No, what do you want? Ok, I gotcha, you want Ben to be dead right? He will be, he will be soon. But, keep patience."

The intensity increased further. Liza asked,"Lewis now why are you crying? What the hell is the matter with you? What do you want?" He saw Liza with his crying and pale face. His eyes had sorrow in them. They had truth in them.

Finally, Lewis said in a low voice,"Wake up, my daughter! Wake up! Open your eyes. See the truth."

Liza felt someone shaking her. Then, she felt someone calling her name. She opened her eyes at once. She heard,"Wake up, my daughter! Wake up! Open you eyes."

Liza saw her mom was beside her, waking her up. Liza woke up. Her mom said,"Good. Now freshen up."

Liza was sitting like a dork. Entirely jobless! She was in her deep thoughts.

"Was that Lewis again? I saw him crying. Why was he? He said to me that I should wake up. Open my eyes but mom said the same things. Or was it my mom who was saying all these things. But what about that 'See the truth' thing. Mom didn't said that. Who the hell was that?" Liza started asking herself bunch of questions. But no answer.

After an hour Liza was at her dinning table. Her mom asked,"So what do you want? Porridge or cereals?" No answer. She waved at Liza and said,"Liza, you alive?" Liza said,"Obviously mom. What do you think, I am gonna die with my eyes open?" Liza's mom laughed.

Liza asked her mom,"Mom, what should I do? Lewis keeps coming in my dreams and never completes his statements, thanks to somebody's dumbass timings." Liza said pointing her mom. Her mom made a face.

"But there is something that he wants to tell me. Why was he crying when his killer is behind the bars? I even consoled him that Ben will be dead one day. The irony is that, his intensity of crying increased. I don't know what he wants?"

Liza's mom took a deep breath and said,"Maybe he wants to tell you that Ben is not the killer. That's the reason he is crying." Liza saw her mom in astonishment. She took a pause and then said,"You maybe right. He said me to open my eyes and see the truth. But, mom Ben is behind the bars. All the evidences and incidents are against him."

Liza's mom said,"So who told you that all these things are enough to prove Ben guilty. He must have told you that he is not the killer and he will prove you wrong one fine day. He said, didn't he?"

Her mom's words bought Liza in amazement. She said,"Hell yeah!" Liza's mom said,"Look honey. I know Ben from years. He can't do this fucking shit killing job. He can, since all the evidences and incidents are against him. But, look before you leap. Go out. Search for some clues. Help yourself."

Liza went in deep thoughts but then she said,"Yeah, you are probably correct. I should check up again on this case. I mean, Ben is my friend. I know, he is wrong, but I should double check my clues." Liza's mom saw her daughter in a amazement and said,"Look at you, all grown up." Liza kissed her mom and started having her porridge. Meanwhile, they were discussing about the case.

The discussion gave Liza a lead to start the investigation again. She decided to send the fur coat she found in Jones's room to the lab for analysis. "This time I will send the coat in some another lab. I wanna see the answer of some other lab. I will send that coat in our lab too and cross check the answer." Liza said to herself.

"Great" was the answer from her mom. She also said,"Think before you take a step. Things may seem difficult at times. But, remember those things are non- living and you are a living creature. You are always strong." Liza got courage from her mother.

After some other chats, Liza bid goodbye from her mother and went. On her way, she was thinking deeply about the case. She said looking up the sky,"I don't know Lewis, what is the truth? I don't know whether Ben is the killer or not. I know, only one thing. That your real killer will be dead one day." Liza imagined Lewis in the sky.
