"I'M NOT CRAZY!!!! I SAW HIM HE WAS FOLLOWING ME". I said trying to convince the officer that I was telling the truth.
"Ma'am calm down. I'm sure you were a little drunk, you did come from a New Year's party and you confessed to drinking after all...
As soon as I got in the house I went straight into survival mode. Nothing or no one could stand in my way right now. Not after what just happened. I grabbed the supposed note and the rose off the kitchen table knowing exactly who it's from, and ran upstairs into my bedroom to grab my black and white suitcase. I rummaged through my drawers pulling everything out, from socks to night clothes. I planned to only pack the important things which turned out to be my whole drawer. Surprisingly everything fit perfect.
Knowing New Years was the day after I wanted to apologize to my grandmother. She doesn't celebrate holidays but after begging her to have a party she agreed to have one the day before, therefore no celebration involved. I zipped up my suitcase and rolled it down the steps. I carried it along with the note but as for the rose, that thing had to go. Yes the note was creepy but the rose just put a ribbon on the top of present. I willingly threw the rose in trash and rolled my suitcase to the front door. I made my way outside to my car locking the door securely behind me. The trunk was already pumped thanks to my back pocket. I tried to lift my suitcase but it was too heavy. I wasn't surprised considering my whole life and a decade was in that bag. With on last attempt to go put my bag in the trunk I felt two hands grab my suitcase and place it in the trunk with ease.
"Don't hurt yourself."
I turned around and saw that it was no other person but Hunter.
"Thanks. This bag is twice my size" I said with a chuckle.
"I could tell by the way you struggled." He said with a flashing smile.
"Listen Hunter, about the party..." I say closing the trunk making my way to the drivers seat.
"Yeah. It's not everyday someone is seen ditching their grandmothers party just to be caught running down the street through the window."
'Oh crap'
'Why wasn't I more careful'
Secretly I wanted Hunter to stop me. To ask ask me what was wrong and to help me fix the problem.
"Yeah umm....I got a uh phone call from the police department. They got some news about one of the causes of James and Thomas's death. They want me to come in for a few days and talk."
"You sure about that?"
Hunter says taking two steps closer.
"I thought they closed the case."
"Well.. they re-opened it" I said getting into the car rolling down the window letting Hunter say his final words before I start the engine.
"Look. Did James call you?"
My heart stopped . It felt like I relived the moment that James called me all over again.
"Carmen?...Carmen.." Hunter said snapping his fingers. I guess it took me a while to process his question.
"Uh no. Are you crazy?" I said with a smile.
It was a awkward smile kind of like....
"That's it." Hunter said walking over to the passengers seat getting into my car, shutting the door behind him.
"What are you doing?" I ask confused as ever.
"I'm coming with you. Just drive to my house so I can get some clothes and extra money and we'll be on our way."
"Hold on. I don't remember asking you to come."
"And I don't remember you telling me I can't come. Besides, you know you've got a little crush on me." Hunter said flashing a devilish smile' moving closer to my face.
I rolled my eyes at his attempt to try to kiss me. In response I pushed his face away from mine and started the engine.
"Buckle up."
