"Hello young man, we have some bad news for you. Your uncle is dead. We need you to come over to central station," said a neutral voice over the phone line. It sounded emotionless like it was a dead voice. This message hit Alex like a rock.
He loved his uncle so much. He was almost the only family Alex had - he lost his parents in a car crash. The only person that was willing to take him in at this time was uncle Jack .
Alex walked into the police station as sad as he could be and he couldn't walk out anymore. "Hi, I'm detective James cook," said a handsome gentleman. "I believe you are Mr Alex Storm, the nephew of Jack Storm," he continued. "Well as I believe you already know, your uncle is dead, "
"He was a great man who did a lot of things for which this country is forever indebted" detective James said.
Now that Alex taught about it, this man had a French accent. He was medium sized, handsome and muscular
"I have to go,"
detective James said quickly.
"Okay," replied Alex. "It's really important, I need to be there," he continued.
"You can speak with the officers here if you like and then you must go to the registry to sign on this meeting,". " You can go, I have no problems: uncle Jack always taught me to be strong and courageous," firmly said Alex.
"He has taught you well, you'll be a great asset to this nation," said detective James.
When he was walking out he was saluted by all but one of the police officers. Alex was impressed. This man was as disciplined as uncle Jack.
Alex then had a thought. What if his uncle didn't commit suicide? He couldn't have. Maybe it was an accident. No! Jack had been burnt to death. You don't get burned by accident.
Alex was really worried. He thought about it. He had to prepare for a funeral.
Dedicated to my family
