"OK kid since this is your first fight this year and today is the last day in till Winter break you get school wise off the hook. On the other hand law wise you might have a little trouble if Andrew's parents want to take this to court." Says the school principal Ms. Watson while taking off my hand cuffs. "You may go now Officer Laws we have it under control." Without even thinking I say bye and wave at the officer while she walks out the door. "You are going to the hospital now to apologize to Andrew and just talk to him". It takes about 10 minutes to get to the hospital and I have to say it was the longest 10 minutes of my life. When I walk into the room that Andrew is in everyone stares at me his twin Alyssa looks like she is going to kill me, but before she can Ms. Watson tells everyone to leave the room. When everyone is out I ask Andrew if he is ok ,which he replies "Never better you didn't actually hurt me as much as we thought only a broken rib and a broken finger not to mention a mild concussion.". They only thing that I can say back is " Sorry I don't know what I was thinking wait I wasn't thinking at all. How did you find out about it. Did your dad tell you?" His answer really surprised me which was, "No I connected dots that I didn't want to connect and didn't think about connecting in till now."  "What were the dots if I may ask?" I need to think before I ask questions like that. "Well I remembered that around that time that my mom thought that my dad was having and affair and that around the time that your mom died even more. Than after she died he was always looking behind him and cleaning things." Then I connected something that I never wanted to connect, maybe my mom's death wasn't really a suicide I mean she shot herself but maybe she didn't shout herself at all maybe Andrew's dad Greg shot her. Oh my gosh my mom may not have committed suicide maybe she was murdered. So I ask Andrew, "Hey Andrew did or does your dad have a gun?" That question really surprised him it's like everything is finally making sense to him.
