Jared, I murdered your uncle

chapter 16

Maria’s P. O. V.:

Jared talked for a bit. After which me and Lesley were told to go in, and talk to the inspector. I was the murderer, and Lesley as the witness. I still felt a bit pissed off at Lesley, but I missed his constant jokes and him nudging and laughing again and again.

“Hey…” I elbowed him while we sat in the waiting room. He had his head in hands and elbows on his knees.

All that I can say is, I only knew Lesley for a month, but I had developed friendship, and I felt bad for yelling at my such an idiotic friend.

“Listen, Lesley I’m sorry.”

“No. Don’t say so.”

“Don’t be a five year old.”

“I’m 18 and a half. Don’t you dare call me a five year old.” He says.

“Why?”

“Because I’m not the one who yelled at me and made my eardrums swell.” That made me laugh…

“At least I’m not the one working at Victoria’s Secret…” He looked up, a grin on his face. He started laughing.

“You’re talking to me?” I say. He smiled.

“I can’t not talk to you… you know that right?” He says putting an arm around me. Phew.

“And I really am sorry, I… lose control of myself, I didn’t eat my pi- never mind.” Shit. I wasn’t supposed to tell that.

“What? What pills?” He asks. I shook my head.

“Maria… Tell me. You know you can.” He said, I rubbed my eyes, no I wasn’t crying, I was sleepy.

“I- I take pills that make me feel sane. It’s a long story why… Since we’re in a police station, I can’t really tell here. You understand right… But promise you won’t tell anyone…?” I say, he nods.

“Miss Fernandez and Mr. Lesley?” Said a man with stubble, glasses and a full suit.

“Yes. We need to talk about a… an accident, that happened earlier today.” Says Lesley. The man nods and takes us to a room with a big desk, and two seats. He asked us to be seated an so we did.

“So… Mr. Jared Hudson has briefed the situation to my assistant, and my assistant says this is completely a case that needs proof and witnesses and the reason of the whole occasion and everything that happened before and after. Let’s start from how you got in there, but for that we need all of them. Wait, I’ll get someone to call the rest of them. Total how many were kidnapped?”

“Total were eight, there were six boys and two girls. Two of them were Henry Davies from BSA and Samantha Edwards, his partner, also from BSA.” Lesley explained, this was the first time he was so serious and the man nodded.

After a few minutes everyone came in. Henry and Samantha had their cards hanging from their necks, and the rest came and had a seat.

“Now each one of you will tell me how you ended up there.”

Jared’s P. O. V.:

After we all were done, Maria explained what had happened and Lesley supported her statement with evidences.

“Once he ordered them and turned back, I took out the gun and shot each one of them one, but three In Bruce Hudson. I was fierce, I was angry at everything he had done, and to my friend Jared, he has already murdered his parents and now wanted to finish him off, but I knew I had to do it so I let all three go into him. Nothing was there to stop me.” I was stunned, speechless, that’s how we all were, except for Lesley, because he had seen it. I never knew she was so determined about anything.

“When I heard the gunshot out of the room, I was worried that it was Maria who was shot. But when I went in I saw she fired all three, then she shot two more into Bruce, it was funny how he had only two men with him, I think he was over confident that we couldn’t do anything, and he was wrong, Maria really manned up and did it, she was happy that we got rid of him.” Lesley finished, once more we all were silent. The police officer nodded and wrote down.

“These cases are pretty often these days, since I deal with these, and these ones are brought up by Teenagers, I am the teenager case specialist. Now as for Bruce, his dead body can be buried we’ll send some people, and his men will be severely punished… But as far as I remember, there have been many other cases about Bruce. Yes I do know about your parents, Jared, Bruce had some tests, and it resulted that he was mentally unwell, so we had tried putting him in mental hospital, but he ran away. So we just settled that he is better in jail.

And other cases like kidnapping haven’t ever come up. Although two parents Mason Edwards and Diana Edwards I do remember ran a severe case for their daughter, but later ordered to kill their daughter, I don’t remember so well, but the name was Irina Edwards I think.”

I tried not to look at Irina. So her parents had ordered to kill her if found? How mean, I just don’t understand some parents.

We all went out and were asked to remain in contact until Bruce’s men were put to jail.

Once we got in a car.

“Irina, were they your parents?” Henry looked at her.

She just nodded her head.

“Maria, you and PJ can stay at our place tonight, we’ll watch a movie. What do you say?” She asked her.

“Obviously yes!” She said jumping up and down in the car.

“Ree, mind not jumping that way? People can see the car moving up and down.” PJ said, everyone looked out to see, and sure enough, people in other cars could see us.

“Dammit.” Maria pouted. I couldn’t help but laugh.

“You need to get these windows tinted.” Henry said.

“My father doesn’t allow.” Maria said.

“Why?”

“I never asked.”
