The following day Èlise sat thinking about what her life would be like if she dated her best friend, until the phone rang, Èlise picked up the phone and answered with a very slow "Hello" .
The person on the other end immediately started speaking "hello Èlise we have found no evidence against you're stepmother murdering your father".
Èlise dropped the phone and sat there shocked by the news it had to be her stepmother it just had to. Jayke ran in the door from hearing the noise of the phone dropping. "What's happened" he cried
"Oh nothing" she replied. "Oh okay" he answered. "by any chance have you thought about us", he added. Èlise looked up slowly and whispered "I would like to be your girlfriend". Jayke smiled and hugged her tightly, they barely spoke mainly because the fact that Èlise was ignoring the fact of the news she had received on the phone. The following day Èlise walked to college and wondered about the possibilities of who murdered her father but deep down the only person in her mind was her stepmother. She didn't know why she thought like that even though there was no evidence against her. Èlise walked to class and tried her hardest to forget about it all but there was no hope. Through the day Èlise never said a word and slowly drowned in her thoughts, as she walked home she stopped for a coffee at her favourite café and did a few sketches by the window as usual. It helps to get things off her mind. As she was flipping through the pages of her sketchbook to start a clean page she came across the portrait of her father that she had drawn the day he died, She suddenly burst into tears and walked out of the café leaving her coffee behind. She got home and lay in bed with tears pouring from her eyes. Just as she began to calm a figure appeared in her doorway. It was Jayke, but he was holding a large kitchen knife. "Jayke, what are you doing" Èlise quietly whispered.
"You've obviously figured it out" He said with tears pouring down his face. "What are you talking about" She said with fear rushing through her body. "Please, you've obviously figured out that I was the one that killed your father" Jayke said angrily
"WHAT" Èlise shouted
"Well now I kn..." she said angrily
Before she could finish her sentence Jayke ran up to Èlise's bed lifting his knife to stab her in the chest. Èlise screamed louder than she ever has before. And even more painfully as he lunged the knife into her stomach...
