The Interrogation

They took me and Bryan into different rooms,and asked us questions. The questions started " how long had you known Bella?"
" fourteen long years " I answered.The next question was " have you two gotten into any arguments recently " I glanced down and answered "y.. Yea."
I stuttered as tears gathered up in my eyes. " what happened ?" " Well she was concerned that B...Bryan was cheating on me..I refused and said why would he do that he loves m...me then she showed me a p..picture o..of it and... I knew who it was it w... Was j.. Just a picture of him and his cousin ..I then t.. Told her it w.. Was his c..cousin she was like I don't know I was like believe me he wouldn't do that then she goes and q.. Questions him about it and he was like I would never do that I l..love stydia and I wouldn't do anything t.. To hurt her. "   " How long ago was this? " the officer said for the next question. " About t.. Two months ago" I started feeling survivor's guilt. " so you had almost a reason to kill her."  My face opened in shock that he would even ask that question " no I would never do that.. I've known her two years longer than I've known Bryan and you really think I would kill her over Bryan I loved her like the sister I never had! " "just making sure..some people love the person they kill to death but they kill them anyway" there was a bit of silence then he asked " Do you know anyone who would want to kill her " " no nobody she was a very loving and caring woman,she was the type of woman that would give her shirt off her back,do anything to help her friends,family or anyone really,she rarely ever got into arguments; me and her only did that once and that wasn't even major,she was just concerned about my safety." " OK I'll go ahead and let you and Bryan go now" the officer said. I let out a sigh of relief and got up shaking all over I fell back down for a second but got back up. Bryan steadied me this time smiling  " looks like someone was nervous " he said smiling I hugged him and started crying on his shoulder we then walked home. Stopping every now and then to rest or to calm me down.
