He was coming home

32

Okay, apparently he was stabbed to death twelve times and then shot four times after he was dead and two times before he was dead. He was punched and kicked and strangled as well

Whoever did this must have really hated him a lot. Like his ex-wife.

Wait, if he was married to aunt, does that mean he was my uncle for sixteen years or sown thing? And that he's now my dead ex-uncle? Why am I only realising that he used to be my uncle now?

"You start school tomorrow" Penny says casually

I forgot about school, this will be so much fun

"And I need a new phone" I say just as casually

"I'll tell Mac and he can get you one on the way back from wherever he is" she replies and we don't say anything else

About an hour later I hear the front door open and close once more and Mac walks into the living room and throws me a phone

"There you go" he says

"Thanks" I say smiling at him, he nods and walks out

I add Nathan as a contact, I managed to memorise his number without meaning to at some point

M: hey Nathan

N: is this Mira?

M: yep

N: you got a new phone

M: yeah

N: where are you?

M: in Hobart

N: oh, why did you leave?

M: I had to figure things out

N: are you coming back

M: idk, maybe

N: please, I miss you!

M: I miss you too

M: do you know who killed Mr Davy yet?

N: I should have known you asked that

M: well

N: well no but congratulations

M: what for?

N: you managed to make it on to the top five suspects list without even being here, that is very impressive

M: are you in the list?

N: no because I'm new, and I was with Gem so I have an alibi

M: you cannot be counted as new still, you've been there for ages. And what does that have to do with anything? You could have still done it

N: I know

M: so how I make it into the top five and you don't? That's so unfair

"Dinner will be ready in five minutes!" Mac yells from the kitchen

"Okay" me and Penny yell back

N: Gem is also in the top five if that makes you feel any better

M: how did she get into the top five if you two were together?

N: well we weren't together the whole entire time

M: but you just said that you were

N: that wasn't the complete truth. At one point she left to go somewhere
