- Shawn? Did you went in Aaliyah's room yesterday?
- Mom? Were you spying on me or something?
- No, I wouldn't do that.
- Okay Then how do you know I was in her room yesterday? You weren't even upstairs.
- I just... heard you.
- Ok.

Shawn took the plate with his breakfast in it in his hands.

-I'm gonna go eat in my room.

He went in his room and sat on his bed. Then, he opened his laptop to watch Netflix.
He didn't want to stay downstairs with his mother because he felt like something was wrong. How could she hear exactly where he was? She was hiding something and Shawn wanted to discover what it was.

Ten minutes after he finished eating and putted his plate on the floor. Even if he was watching Harry Potter, he didn't feel better. He was thinking too much :

"Maybe she put a camera in Aaliyah's room. But why would she do that? What does she want to hide? Does she thinks I want something from Aaliyah? Even if I was, how would it make a difference? Oh, I took Aaliyah's journal. Maybe there's something hide in it. It's just a journal though..."

Shawn got up and open his closet and looked at the floor, where he putted the journal, the night before. But the journal wasn't there anymore. Shawn took off all the clothes that were laying on the floor of his closet and still didn't see it. The only person that seemed concerned with it was... his mom. He couldn't ask his mom because he knew his mom wouldn't tell him what he wanted to find out, what was really going on in this house.

How could Karen know where he put the journal.. Well he didn't hide it either, he just put it on the floor. But how could she came in Shawn's room when he was sleeping?

The young singer went downstairs where his mother was and asked her:

-  What are you doing today?
- I don't know.. I have somethings to do on my computer but after I'll probably go to the grocery store.
- oh ok.
- why? Is there something wrong?
- No just wondering.
- ok.

Shawn sat on the couch and he got a text from Camila:

C: hey, sorry I didn't talk to you for awhile but I just wanted to have some news.. How are you ?
2:30
S: I feel a little bit better but my mom is acting weird lately .. Like she had something to hide.🤔
2:31
C: Don't worry, she may just doesn't know how to deal with all of this..🤕 if it bother you, you're always welcome to my apartment.
2:31
S: thanks camila, I'll think about it😉
2:32
C: ok I have to go, call me if you need anything.
2:32
S: ok bye💛
2:32

Later, Shawn heard Karen going out of the house. He remembered that she said she had to check some things on her computer. He went downstairs and opened her computer. There was a passcode. He tried his birthday, then Aaliyah's, then their names... Then he tried 29.10.16 , The day Aaliyah died. And it worked.

At first he opened Google and looked her history. She deleted it.

"Damn she's a pro" , he thought.

He closed Google and looked at the apps she had on her laptop. She had one named "control service A4B5Df" . He opened it. It was full of video records of places in the house. Then Shawn started freaking out.

' if that thing is recording, she'll see I'm looking in her laptop" . He said.

He looked in the app. One was recording in her room, one in Aaliyah's room and one in Shawn's room.

"That was close" Shawn was thinking.

He closed her laptops and went outside and sat in his car. Before he put the keys in the starter, he took a second to think.

"Why is my mom recording in the house? Is she afraid of something, or she's doing that to control everything..? It doesn't seem like her though.."

He drove to Starbucks, the muffins there were amazing . He got out his car and enter in the store. He saw the girl that was working there and fell in love, she had long blonde hair and green/brown eyes. It was written "Andrea" on her jacket.

- hi, my name is Andrea can I take your order?
- uh.. Yeah! I'll take a blueberry muffin please.
- ok anything else?
- no that will be all.
- do you take it to go?
- I would rather go out with you to be honest

"What did I just said?" Shawn thought..

- uh.. Well why not?
- really?
- yeah!

She took a piece of paper and wrote her number on it. She gave it to Shawn.

- thanks, said Shawn
- No problem but do you take it to go?
- Yeah! *chuckles*
- 3,25$ please.

Shawn gave her the money and Andrea gave her the muffin. He went in his car and thought:

"She's honestly to most beautiful girl I've ever seen, I hope she didn't gave me a fake number..I don't think she would do that.."
