The Murder

                                                                              The Murder

            We had been attending College for one week now and everything seemed to go smoothly. The three of us had opted college routines and had managed it nicely. We made a couple of friends in that time. We had college in the morning and had rest of the day to ourselves which we traded for our games and parties. Everything was going as it was supposed to go but things started to stir one day. 

           It was Saturday, and we sluggishly woke up and went to college. On our way, on the city’s Main Boulevard, we got stuck up in a huge traffic jam, the most frustrating thing in the world. When the air was cleared, it turned out that someone was found dead in his car. This made the headline of the college’s rumors and each student presented his or her own hypothesis about the killer and his method but obviously, the reality was still behind the curtain so we could just wait and let the police do their work. 

           All the teachers assured the students that there was absolutely no reason to panic, and according to them police knew the “killer”, like the students were gonna believe them. So they, including us, hardly studied.

          Stiles didn’t take it seriously. In fact I and Alice also paid little attention to it. After all, it was just a murder, but the frightening part was that there had not been a single murder in this area for around a whole year now and now just a murder, something like this on the main Boulevard for all of the residents to see.

                 "What are you drawing?" I whispered in Stiles's ear. He was sitting in front of me in Physics lab. We had Physics Lab in the morning.

           He leaned back on his chair and whispered "Drawing something"

        "What?" I whispered back and started scribbling my name on my notebook because Professor Luis was staring at us from the other corner of the room.

          "Please don't tell me he is drawing nude girls again" Mike whispered to me. He was sitting on the left side of me and Stiles. I tried my best to keep myself from laughing but I couldn't. and this was too much for Mr.Luis and he asked the three of us to stand up.

           "What are you guys doing?"

           "Studying" I and Mike instantlly answered but stiles remained silent and when I looked at him he still staring at his notebook and tilting his head in different directions looking for mistakes.

           "Mr.Stiles, am I interrupting in some thing?" His sentences basked in sarcasm and anger and Stiles finally looked up.

           "I said am I interrupting something" Mr.Luis emphasized on his previous question.

            "No. Not at all. Absolutely not" Stiles answered hurriedly and slapped his notebook shut.

             "But you were!" Mr. Luis snapped and Stiles took sometime to comprehend it and sheepishly took his seat. 

           Excpet Stiles's kicking around in the Physics lab earlier, the whole day sucked. I spilled the juice on my newly bought shirt. Football try outs were postponed and before it could get any worse I made Stiles and Alice leave and return home to start our weekend early.

          As we were heading back after college, we passed that murder spot and were surprised to see that cops were still inspecting the area and according to Alice “were needlessly blocking the road”. 

         “I wanna know what happened” I said, as I pulled the car to the side.

          “If you haven’t taken it in until now, let me tell you that a murder took place” Stiles remarked sarcastically as I stepped out of the car.
