A Dream Come True

Chapter 3

Chapter  3

"Mia!" I ran down the hall and down the stairs searching for Tamia.

"What is it? What's wrong?" She ran out of the kitchen frantically.

"I need a ride to the police station."

"Police station?" She looked at me puzzled. "For what?"

"Look if I told you, you wouldn't even believe me."

"Try me." She challenged as she folded her arms across her chest.

"Josh was murdered, it was no accident."

Tamia look at me unfazed by the news I just told her. She sighed hard and shook her head.

"Look sweetie it's been a long day for you, why don't you just go back upstairs and lie down." She tried to guide me back into the direction of the stairs but i pushed her hands away.

"Mia I'm serious... I have proof. "

"How?" She gave me her full attention.

"Josh told me." I said in a hushed tone.

"Josh told you? Really Amara.. " She said in disbelief.

"Look, I know I sound crazy but he actually did tell me."

"How?"

"In my dreams, Mia he came to me."

"Amara its a dream its not real its just your imagination."

"You don't have to believe me. I know I'm right I'm going to the police with or without you." I became extremely frustrated at this point in time. I started to head for the door but Tamia's voice interrupted me.

"Amara wait! I'll take you." She sighed heavily.

"Thank You Mia."

"I'm going to regret this." She said while closing and locking the front door behind us.

I sat in the passenger seat in Mia's Malibu as we made our way to the police station. I looked out of the window at the streets of Chicago wondering where to even start. I placed my head on the window as my eyes started so close.

I open my eyes to see Josh smiling down at me.

"Hello beautiful." He kissed my temple and moved a stray hair away from my eyes.

"Josh how could you be so calm with your killer still free?" I looked in his eyes for an answer but all I saw was pure joy.

"Because I know my woman got this under control. I trust you to bring me justice baby, I know you can do it. Right?" He asked while bringing my face closer to his.

"I just feel like I failed you." I begin to break down. "I should have came home or I should have called you. Josh I'm so sorry."

"I don't blame you Mara. We both should have called and besides, I'm glad you wasn't home then we both could possibly be dead."

"I just miss you so much. I don't even know where to begin to look for your killer. My best friend doesn't even believe me."

"Don't say anything about this to anyone else. A lot of people are going to think you're crazy,you need to do this alone. I have faith in you baby and before I forget.. don't trust everyone around you and watch your surroundings carefully."

I nodded my head in agreement. I wiped the stray tears that fallen. The last thing I need is for my love to think that I was weak and couldn't handle this.

"Here baby, you're going to need this."he placed the piece of paper in my hands and kissed me deeply.

"Amara we're here." When i opened my eyes  we were in the parking lot of the Cook County police station. I lookef down at the piece of paper that was in my hand and shoved it in my pocket.

I walked into the station with Mia close by. I walked up to the front desk and asked for officer Stevens. Officer Stevens was great with me during this past week, right now he's the only one that I can trust.

I waited in the front of the precinct anxiously.

"Ms. Samuels?  How are you?"

He gave me a side hug and a small smile.

"Im gine thanks for asking, but can we uh talk in private? " he nodded his head and lead me and Tamia into an interrogation room. 

"so whats on your mind?" He gave me his full attention.

"I belive that Josh was murdered. " I blurted  out i wasnt going to beat around the bush.  I needed everything to be solved ASAP.

Officer Stevens gave me an unsure look and rubbed his goatee.

"And what makes you say that? "

I heared Tamia clear her throat and i looked over at her. I remembered what Josh told me and decided to keep this between me and Mia.

"Uh just a hunch. " He nodded his head not sure on whether to believe me or not.

"Well im sorry Ms. Samuels-"

"Please call me Amara. " i interrupted him.

"Ookay,  Amara, but Im sorry were going to need a little more than just an hunch.  Im going to need some type of proof. " I sighed defeated.

"Well can i atleast have a copy of the medical examiner's records? " He nodded his head and disappeared back into the office.

"You okay? " Tamia asked when he left.

"Yeah im fine,  but i just have a gut feeling that something's  not right. "
