Suspicious Killer

Chapter -7

In a while I reached home and got into the house in the same way as I got out (ie )through the window of my room . I climbed the window and landed in my room . As I entered the room , someone started knocking my room door . I went ahead to open the door.

Mom - said I seeing my mom.

Yes me - said she

How did you sleep - asked she .

Good mom - said i

Why have you changed your Dress ?- asked she with a suspecting look.

Because I felt bored sleeping , so I decided to change my dress and come out of the room - said I

No you have to rest today . No coming out - said she strictly . I had no other option but to agree with her words .

Ok mom -said I with an upset face .

I came here to ask you that what would you have for dinner ?- asked she .

Anything mom - said I with an upset expression .

Why are you so upset - asked she

Because you have refused to let me out of the room -said I

Not me but your behaviour today morning was responsible for all this - said she mocking me .

Mom please now will you leave me alone - asked I

Ok ok , I will call you for the dinner once it's ready - said she and walked off the room .

I closed the door immediately and took out all the things that I had collected from peter's room . I placed all those things on my bed and began to wonder of his relationship with ray . Why did he collect all these things ? Was he the one who was calling ray every time ? Was he responsible for her death ? If it was so then I had Decided not to leave him and punish him for his deeds . Apart from all the things , there were 2 papers . One was a letter and the other one was a torn peice of paper . I first took the letter and read it

My dear ray ,

You have no idea of how much you mean to me . The day I saw you for the first time in my dad's office , my heart skipped a beat . You were my life but when you told me that you were already committed to someone , my blood started boiling . I could not take it . I started hating that man who seperated you from me . I can do anyt hing for you , even kill. You have to accept my love or else I have no idea of what I can do if I lose my temper . You are mine and will always be mine

Yours truly and deeply ,
Peter .

The letter now clearly depicted that charles son could be one of those involved in ray's murder but nothing was confirmed yet .

I took out the other letter which I had got from ray's cabin to check if the handwriting matches . And yes the handwriting matched . Not only that but the torn paper was a part of the letter that I had got from ray's cabin . It had a missing part in it , the last two letters of Peter was torn and when I joined it , the fit of the paper was right .  My doubt got cleared and now the case was becoming transparent . I had to confess Peter regarding these letters for which I had to meet him alone . I had a plan for it .

I decided to send a copy of these letters to Peter through post and insert a letter in it demanding him to meet me in the given address .

I took a lot of copies of that letter and sent one copy through post to Peter with a letter demanding him to meet me at the ozo cafeteria near my home by 10am tomorrow morning . I had to find out of what had actually happened that night and for that this man peter had to open his mouth . I kept those letters in my bag and decided to sleep as it was already time.

Next day ,

Time : 10AM

I was waiting in the restaurant for nearly half and hour , Peter was on his way and would reach here in another 5 minutes .

What do you want from me ? And why are you blackmailing me ?- came a sound from behind me . I turned back to see who was .

Andrew - said Peter ,

Yes me.- said I and asked him to sit down . He sat down and again asked me the same question .

Is this your letter and handwriting is all that I want to know - said I placing the letters in front of him .

Yes it is mine but I swear I did not give ray any of these - said he .

If you dint give then how did I find this letter in ray 's cabin - asked I angrily .

I don't know about that but I did not do anything - said he .

Every person caught uses this dialogue only but where is the proof for your words - asked I . All the evidences are against you . This letter you have written and you have accepted it .- continued I .

Yes I have written it but I did not send it to ray . Trust me sir - said he holding my hand .

Dont lie , - said I and showed him all the belongings of ray which I had seized from his cupboard .

Yes sir I accept that I had her belongings ,I fell in love with her the day I met her and I started collecting all her things like a mad lover . But I never gathered the guts to tell her of how much I loved her so i used to write letters but never posted it in fear of losing her . I still love her Andrew and that is why I am telling you that I have no hand in her murder . I feared a lot to even propose her then how do you think that I can kill her - asked I to Andrew .

And why do you think that I will believe you - asked I .

Because I am speaking the truth -said he.

The law will decide that - said I . I will see to it that you get punished .

Andrew please don't do all this , I will help you in this mission . Trust me I haven't done anything . I just loved ray but I could never tell her -said he

I did not give her that letter though it was written by me - said he but I refused to listen to him and his stories . I walked away from that place thinking whether to trust him or not .

I kept thinking about it the entire evening and finally decided to give him  one single chance to prove himself . I messaged him saying that I am ready to give him one last chance to prove him guilty and he sent me a return message saying that he will prove himself right at any cost . Meanwhile I kept wondering of who it could be of it was not charles son. My mind was still saying that he was lying but my heart disagreed to it .

I was wondering of how to get to the killer when suddenly an idea struck me. The Ouija board , I was not able to play it last time because Elsa was no more . We had planned to play it together but she died before that . Ray can give me the answers for my questions through that board . But someone had to play with me . Peter , thought I immediately . Charles son can play with me , thought I and messaged Peter about my plan . He agreed to play with me tonight . We like the last time decided to meet each other at my house by 10pm at night . I messaged the address to Peter .

Today I had to unmask the killer at any cost .

I held ray's photo frame in my hand ,

I will find him today baby , I just hope that you are ready to help me - said I running my hands through the photo .

I miss you ray and I will always love you - said I holding the frame tight to my chest .
