I never got to visit Barbara. The next day before I could get to visit her, she and 5 other patients where broken out of Arkham. My mind kept wondering if my sister did it. I didn't ask her in fear that she did.

Then the day after the breakout seven people in straight jackets fell from the top of the newspaper building. They each had a letter and the last one an exclamation mark, it spelled MANIAX! .

The last one had a signature on it, it wasn't very big and it was on the back. In a purple color it had ~H.Q on it. When I read it my heart stopped for a moment and I felt like I was suffocating. I can't believe it was her. Of course I couldn't hide it from Jim even if I tried.

I decided to ask her. She normally avoids me and talking about her personal life or business life. But I had an idea to make her come. I texted her in the morning and offered her something I knew she wouldn't resist. I was a bit worried about having it with me all day like she requested. Though I did as told.

Today I was still a bit off but I couldn't let other people know. So I tried my best to forget about it. I still don't want my sister in trouble so I decided to go to the Record Annex. Still not sure what to do with what I find if I find anything. We destroy it of course.
When it's time I'll think about it.
I talking when I approach the room.

"GO AWAY!" I open the door to see Edward and papers thrown on the floor by him. He notices me as well.
"Hello Rosabelle." He says as if nothing happened.

"Hello Edward. Is everything all right?"

"Yes everything is fine." he says quickly.

I go over amd and pick up a few of the papers on the floor.

"Let me guess. You were going to ask out Kristen but got nervous and didn't." I set down the papers in front of him. He blushes. I give him a small side hug."Don't worry, when you do ask her I'm positive she'll say yes." I try to push it away but it does hurt when I say things like this. But I can't be selfish.

"Thank you Rosabelle. Did you need something?"

"Oh no. I just came here to look for a few files."

"Is it about the Arkham breakout?" Oh dear.

"Something like that." I give him a smile.

"You were friends with Barbara Kean and therapist to Jerome Valeska. Right?"

"I like to think I am friends with both of them." he looked confused.

"Rosabelle they're murderers."

"I'm sure if you were called crazy you would like a friend who didn't think of you badly." He still looked shocked. I pat his back in response. " And if that ever happens I will still be here for you." He gives me a thin smile.
I go look for anything of my sister or me.

Edward left after a while. It's like he forgets I helped him cover up a murder. Does he not trust me?
God all these thoughts are giving me a headache. Not to mention I'm also going to have to tell Jim about my talk with Jerome.

I actually did find something of my sister. It was when we were kids and she stole from banks. Times she was in the station, when she broke into places. She never made me do the things she did but since I was a braniac I had to make potions and help plan the heists.

I was reading through the file, though it wasn't that much, when I heard gunshots. Oh dear. What do I do? Oh dear. I'm suffocating. Calm down. If Queenie is even part of this team then you're safe. Calm down. Oh shit. What about Edward. I can't believe you cussed. That's unimportant. I have to find Edward.
