You gasped. Kao was in total shock.
Alfred wiped a tear rolling down his cheek. He sniffed and kept his head down.
"Alfred... I-I'm so sorry. I had no idea that Mystery was a murderer." You said regretfully.
You scooted closer to Alfred and put your arm around him. Alfred let out a trembling sigh and rested his head on your shoulder.
"Alfred I'm so sorry about your son... I'm sorry we insisted on staying. We understand now." Kao said softly while flying over to Alfred and patting his back.
"D-don't worry. Mystery will never hurt my family again. And if he try's... then he's gonna be asking for a bullet in his head." Alfred coldly muttered under his breath.
You looked at Kao with a worried surprised face. What Alfred was saying scared you a bit, shooting someone in the head was...deep.
"Alfred please don't talk like that, it's worrying us." Kao said.
"Sorry Kao. It's just... very hard not to think about that when... things happen." Alfred spoke as he lifted his head up, wiping his face with his paws.
"But Shia will always be remembered. In are hearts." Alfred whispered putting his paw on his chest. You and Kao did too, lowering your heads and giving your respects to Alfreds son, Shia.
~time fucc skip~
You were walking home. The sun was setting and a soft breeze made your fur sway. You kept thinking about mystery and his doings. Such horrible things.
But now that you were thinking about it, you kept thinking how Alfred and mystery met. Maybe mystery kidnapped Alfred? Or maybe Alfred stumbled in mystery's hospital?
You kept thinking as you opened your door to your house. You stepped in and closed the door behind you, and put your keys on the kitchen table.
You walked towards your fridge to get some ice cream.
"Hmm. What's this?" You muttered as you spotted a note on your refrigerator.
The handwriting seemed familiar. Wait, it looked like the same handwriting in the hospital.
Your eyes widened as you read the badly written note that made chills down your back.
" Mystery thinks your fun! Maybe you should come to my hospital tomorrow. I could really use some friends! If I had you here maybe I wouldn't be so sad and alone...
And trust me, Alfred was lying. DONT TRUST HIM "
I was reading the comments on my old book... they are really interesting 〰️
