I covered my face with my hands and I started to cry again.
This probably had something to do with Kristy being mad at me…
I cannot believe this; her own father has killed my mother!
Once again, I was shocked!
My old best friends father, someone I had trusted and someone that I had been around most of my life. (Considering I ALWAYS used to go to Kristy’s house)
I had slept in the same house as a murderer!
Then again I wonder what was the big secret that mother knew that Paul done.
I had to tell Kristy, to get out of that place before she gets killed. Just because she hated me doesn’t mean I didn’t care about her…
I mean I didn’t want her to get killed.
I wanted to tell father I knew, but then she would know that Haylee was eavesdropping.
She was my little sister and although eavesdropping was wrong I didn’t want to get her in trouble, we have just started getting along.
I was thinking about all of this at once, connecting the dots as I went along.
‘Avary…’ she clicked her fingers in my face.
I woke up from my daydreaming.
‘Who is Paul White?’ Haylee asked.
‘Do you remember my friend Kristy?’ I said calmly.
‘Kristy killed mother!?’ Haylee screamed.
‘Keep your voice down!’ I whispered ‘No, Kristy’s father’
Haylee had the same reaction as me; she covered her face with her hands in shock.
‘Why did he kill mother, Avary?’ Haylee said in distraught.
‘Mother knew a secret that Kristy’s dad wanted NO ONE to know and mother told Amanda, and with Amanda he was at the risk of being reported to the police’ I explained.
‘What was the secret?’ Haylee asked in confusion.
‘I don’t know…’ I replied.
‘How do you know all this?’ Haylee asked.
‘I just do…’ I said walking off to my bedroom.
I still couldn’t believe it, KRISTY’S FATHER I though to myself.
I should call her and warn her about it.
I dialed her number and it started to ring.
‘Hello’ She said.
‘Kristy, look. I know your mad at me and all but you’re in danger and I’m here to help.’ I said sounding confident and proper.
‘And why would I need YOUR help?’ She asked.
‘Your father is a murderer! You have to let your mother know, I know you hate me now but I don’t want YOU to be murdered by your own father!’ I said panicking.
‘Oh I know he’s a murderer…and so does my mother’ She said calmly.
‘Yet you’re still living with him!?’ I asked.
‘Listen freak, you worry about your family and I’ll worry about mine!’ Kristy said slamming the phone down.
‘Well that went well’ I sighed diving onto my bed.
I heard a knock at my bedroom door.
Haylee walked in ‘Avary, can you make dinner for us?’
‘What do you want for dinner?’ I asked her.
‘I don’t know’ She shrugged her shoulders.
‘I’ll make us Chicken Bites and salad.’ I said getting up from bed.
'Okay but no tomato' She said poking her tongue out in disgust.
