It's been a week now since the death of Ray . All the fingers were pointed towards me and all the evidences were also against me . I was finding it difficult to prove myself innocent . My friend Peter was always there by my side as my shadow and was trying to gather as many clues so that I get proved innocent . I remained mum and refused to speak to any of my family members and also to move out of my house because wherever I go these days I find ray . She is everywhere , it's like she wants to tell me something or maybe she's following me .

Elsa can I come to your agency today afternoon - asked I to Elsa over the phone . She was the one who agreed to help me the previous day while I was enquired by the police .

Yes of course Andrew come to my agency by 2pm in the afternoon - said she .

Ok thank you , I will be there on time - said I and cut the phone .

Where are you going Andrew ? - asked Peter who was standing near the door .

Aah .... Actually yesterday I met a woman from a detective agency . Her name is Elsa and she after hearing my case assured me that she would help me out , so I am off to meet her by 2pm in the afternoon in her agency - said I .

Ok then even I will accompany you , where is the agency and what is the agency name ?- asked Peter .

Tangent Detective agency .- said I and continued ,

But I don't want you to accompany me Peter please . I know you care for me but trust me I am ok and I have to fight this all alone and unless I find out what actually happened that night I am not going to sit peacefully . You keep yourself out of all this , whenever I need your help I will let you know - said I and started in my car to the agency .

The agency was 30 minutes away from my house , I had to reach there as soon as possible and hence I drove fast so that I could  reach on time .

There it is Tangent Detective agency said I as I spotted the building . It was a 32 storey building and was huge . I parked my car and immediately called Elsa to know the floor number .

Hello Elsa I am here in your agency . Which floor do i have to come.- asked I

Superb , come to the 18th floor and you can ask anyone there , they will guide you to my cabin . - said she and cut the phone .

I quickly got into the lift and in 5 minutes I landed in the 18th floor .

Excuse me , where can I meet Elsa ?,-asked I to a woman passing by .

Go straight and you will find her in the last room - said the woman .

Thank you - said I as the woman kept moving .

It was quiet a busy agency , every other person there were  with their clients or phones or computers . All the people there were busy solving different  mysteries .

I reached the end ,  and found Elsa sitting in the last room . I knocked the door of cabin .

May I come in -, asked I

Of course come in Andrew - said she after looking at me .

Please take your Seat - said she and continued ,

Would you like to have something -,asked she .

No nothing , I am just here to get some  help from you - said I

Ya definitely. I am also here to help you ,so tell me about your relationship with ray from the beginning ?- asked she .

Ray and I were childhood friends , our families were related to each other as our father's were good friends and also business partners . Everything was good till 3 years back but then some issues between our fathers arose because of which we split . Ray's family shifted to New York city and also our business got shut down. We were facing a lot of financial crisis and so were Ray's family as it was a partnership business . At that time I received a call from the los Angeles army saying that they need a person who can shoot well . I had actually applied for this job 2 years back when I started pursuing my shooting career and I was very excited that I had got selected for the next round . Everything was going fine and I was also selected as a gun shooter as well as a weapons instructor as I was an expert in that . Whereas Ray on the other hand established herself as a successful journalist in AVC channel . Though our families got seperated but still we never lost contact with each other . We kept talking through social medias and also over the phone at times . Over the time period of 3 years both me and ray had developed a soft corner for each other in our hearts . I started liking her and soon this like got converted to love . I feared to tell it to her as I dint know what was running in her head . She had gotten into my head very badly , I couldn't stay without talking to her and one day I decided to propose her for marriage . I left to New York to speak to her face on face . I gathered the address of her channel and went to meet her as soon as I landed in New York  . It was already 6 months of me meeting her and I was excited to meet her . I walked into her channel office and asked a few people about her whereabouts and they showed me the way to her cabin . I quickly went to her cabin , held her hand giving her no time to speak and brought her out of her office . She kept asking me of what was the matter but I refused to reply any of her questions. I forced her to get into the taxi and we headed to the Brooklyn bridge . This place was said to be the best place to propose and hence I decided to take her there . As soon as we reached the place ,
