These past few days have been hysterical, the twins and I have been in my room for the past few days, both Ethan and Grayson have a room in my house, but Grayson has been sleeping with me because I'm an emotional mess right now.
We're currently printing out the pictures I took with my really darn old IPod, thank god that thing still works.
The quality of the pictures isn't great, but it's good enough to be able to recognize the man and the bodies.
It's sad to think that the man who killed my parents is Shawn's dad, I'm not mad at Shawn, it wasn't his fault, it all just was unexpected.
"Come on, turn on!" My IPod decided to give up at the last picture, this can't be good.
"Don't worry Sarah, I sent the pictures to my phone in case this happened" Ethan said, I leaped from the floor and jumped into his arms.
"Ethan! I love you sooooo much! You're a life saver, THANK YOUU!" I said kissing his cheek, he chuckled at my actions and shook his head.
"Anytime gurl, now, let's print this thang" we broke the hug, he walked over the printer and plugged his phone in it, the picture started printing, revealing the most important piece of evidence we have so far.
Him holding the gun towards my mom.
I actually got that picture from the orphanage director, a store caught the scene with their cameras, when the files were in the director's desk due to investigation, (you know, all that adult stuff I don't understand) I took a picture of it.
"Is that all the evidence we have so far?" Grayson asked, I furrowed my brows and started bouncing my legs.
"I don't think think so.." they nodded and kept doing their thing.
I sat in front of the computer, not really doing anything.
I just feel like I'm forgetting something...
*flashback*
The cops took me with them towards their car, the men started discussing about the whole case, I didn't really know what to do, I was in shock.
I know that this investigation would take years to complete, I may be young, but I'm smart enough to know that.
As I looked around, I managed to escape one of the man's grip and walk towards what seemed to be a bullet.
It had blood, I don't know if it was my mom's or dad's.
I always saw my parents do all sorts of thing with these things, I wanted to be like them, so one day I decided to carry around a ziplock bag, since I didn't have their fancy plastic bags.
To my luck, I've never actually used it, so it's still in my jacket's pocket.
I opened the bag and placed the bullet inside it, I closed it shut and put the bag inside my front pocket, I pulled my shirt down a little bit so it was fully covered.
I walked over to the men, they ended their discussion and took me back to the car.
The whole ride I stared at the window, not being able to get that horrific image of the two most important persons in my life's cold bodies.
*end of flashback*
My eyes shot open, I quickly got up from the black office chair and sprinted to my room, I could hear the twins calling my name, but I completely blocked them for now.
I looked through my stuff until I finally found my old backpack.
"Bingo" I said to myself, I grabbed it and ran back to the office.
"Guys, I just remembered I had this" they sat on the floor, I did too, curiosity building up on their faces.
I opened the first pocket and took out everything I had.
"Sarah.." Ethan said, where is the bullet?!
I stared at the backpack, until I finally remembered where I kept the bullet.
I opened the smallest pocket which was inside of the big one, I put my hand inside it, moving it around until I finally felt something.
I carefully took it out, the blood hasn't dried yet, which I found odd, but I won't complain, thank you god.
"This is one of the bullets Manny used when he killed my parents" their mouths flew open.
"H-how did you get that?" Grayson asked in disbelief. "I picked it up that same night, I knew I would need it in the future"
"Sarah, we need to place that where we know we can find it, we can't lose the bullet" Ethan said. "I'm planning on taking it to the lab where my parents used to work in, I remember the directions.
"We'll go with you" they said at the same time, I smiled at their cuteness and shook my head.
"No, you guys have done enough, I want you to go home and get some rest" I'm such a mom, wow.
"But Sarah, we want to help you" Ethan pouted.
"You will help me by taking away my worry if you two not getting any rest"
"Fine" Gray gave in, he looked at Ethan who also nodded.
They gathered their stuff and walked to the door.
"Are you sure you don't want us to stay and help you?" E offered one more time, I chuckled and shook y head for the millionth time.
"No, thank you, I'm fine, I'll call you later guys, but for now get some rest kids" I said pinching their cheeks, Grayson dropped his stuff and pulled me into a hug.
"Don't be afraid to call us if you need help, okay?" I nodded and kissed his cheek, he did the same and went outside.
I moved onto Ethan who pulled me into the tightest hug ever.
"I'm really sorry Sarah, I shouldn't have messed with your case.." "Ethan, I told you it's fine, you're human, humans make mistakes, besides, I love you wayyy to much to be mad at you"
"Thanks bro" "don't worry about it sister, now, go with your brother and get some rest" I patted his shoulder as he walked to his car.
They both waved at me, I waved back and got back inside.
I'm not only giving the bullet to the lab so they can make a DNA test, I'm also paying a little visit to Manny.
I'm alive! I know I haven't updated in ages, and I'm so sorry for that💜
