Boundaries..... It's not just a word

Chapter 21

Misty drove towards her driveway and noticed that there was more written on her garage door. "Slut, Gold Digger and cunt". She started to cry, tears flowing down her face, "who is doing this to me?" She opened the garage door and parked her car. She shut the garage door as soon as Liam walked through. They made their way to her front door and were about to walk outside to see the damage that was done, to take pictures and to call the police. Misty unlocked the front door and she had barely begun to pull the door open, when there was a loud exploding sound that went off. Misty and Liam were thrown back a good 4 to 5 feet and her front door was destroyed. Liam quickly looked her over to make sure she was okay, make sure she had no injuries and she looked at him also. Neither one of them seemed to be hurt too badly, thank goodness. Just a few scratches and singed hair and eyebrows. They exited the house through the sliding glass door just in case there were any additional exits that were sabotaged. When they got to the front yard and walked up to look at the front door, that is when she realized that it was a complete disaster, there was no way to correct or even attempt to use the door for anything other than bonfire kindling. The whole door that was once white is now a charred looking piece of wood barely hanging onto the hinges. They took pictures of both the front door, inside the home, and the garage with the graffiti that was put up. Misty called the police, the same officer that had come by before was back and again he didn't seem to be to stressed about the spray paint, he said "it's probably just some neighborhood kids who are acting out." Misty said "umm, I would go along with that except my front door exploded when I attempted to open it to take pictures of the garage door" now that caught his attention and he seemed to take it more seriously. That must have really startled him, he quickly called into the station and within about 10 to 15 minutes there were two more patrol cars there and CSI unit, they were looking for finger prints, anything really that could help them figure this out. With Misty's house now a fucking crime scene, she packed a small bag and put it in her car. She wasn't sure if she would be able to stay in the house tonight but she knew that she could go to the beach house. Liam walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her in an effort to comfort her, however it felt forced and nothing like when Charlie would hold her. She said "Charlie should be here." He thought "what the fuck? I'm standing right here, she doesn't need him. God will she ever move on from him? I can't and won't share. I don't play well with others!" She was shaking, which was totally normal in this circumstance. She held onto him tightly afraid that she might fall down. Tear drops fell from her face and she just let them flow. At this point she no longer cared what Liam or anyone thought about how she was reacting. "Someone was making my life a living fucking hell....... Oh, my god it has to be Bob Urchin, there's no other possibility! He'd promised me that he was going to make my life a living hell and he's doing just that." 

The police said without direct evidence that points to Mr. Urchin without a specific and compelling evidence, there really was nothing that they could do at this point. The neighbors didn't recall seeing anyone over at Misty's house or anyone leaving anything. The police officer said "honestly, if I were you, I would get those floodlights with a camera attached, you can hook it up to a computer and it will record anyone that comes near your house and major a security system set up in the home, that would help especially with a panic button if you believe Mr. Urchin is or has been at your home." Both Liam and Misty looked at each other and then they immediately jumped into his car and went to the local hardware store, they were able to locate the flood light security system that the police officer was talking about. Liam was pleased to find out that set up is particularly reliable and the resolution for recording the property is the highest available, it also had really good floodlight coverage that basically would light up everything around the house. She was just happy that she would be able to stream the video directly to her smart phone and pc. They bought four of them, they wanted to make sure the whole house was covered. They also bought a heavy front door in the color she liked, there was a little door that opened and there were bars there so that it would give her better visibility then before with a peephole. They had one of the employees at the hardware store cut plexiglas and seal it to the inside of the opening so nothing could be thrown in past the bars. They drove back to her house and to her shock the cops were still there. The two of them installed in the new door and then the floodlights with the cameras were installed in just a few minutes, on each setup all the info was streaming to her phone and her pc where it can be recorded onto her hard drive. She couldn't believe how much better she felt, no matter where she was she could see around her house. It gave her a lot more confidence with being alone in her own home.
