It was him. Duncan. He was the criminal. 

Do I report him, or do I not. 

My mind changed its answer back and forth, over and over again.

Yes.

No.

Yes.

No.

I don't know.

He was my love on total drama island, but then he cheated on me for Gwendolyn. Or well, Gwen. My best friend at the time.

I still had feelings for him, but I was a lawyer, I couldn't break the law. I had to report him.

This all depended on me.

Yes.

No.

Yes.

It was my choice. If I reported him, I would finally get revenge. If I didn't report him, he might love me again.

I doubt that he will ever find out that I saved his ass.

I was going to report him.

Or was I?

I was never sure about these things. Maybe I was actually going to go through something like this for once.

I was.

I wasn't.

I laid on my bed with my head between my hands. I had a headache. I massaged my temples as I thought. I had to face it. Duncan would probably never love me again. What does he get for choosing Gwen over me? I grinned. I was a lawyer. I could make his life miserable. I would report him. I didn't sleep all night. It was around 6, but I wasn't hungry for breakfast yet. I was going to report Duncan. Right now. I quickly got dressed and got into my limousine. My butler drove me to the police station where I talked to the police. I gave them the photo of Duncan. They thanked me a ton and gave me money for figuring out who it was. Then I left.

That day went by fast. I was not called into court that often, so my day was completely free. I watched some TV and ate some popcorn and other snacks. It was just a regular lazy day. I called the housekeeper in, and while she was cleaning I listened to some music on my EarPods. Then, when my playlist ended, I watched a movie. When my personal caterer came in, she made dinner and dessert. It was delicious. I watched another movie after dinner. I also made some more popcorn. When it was done, I was starting to get tired, so I got ready for bed and turned on the nightly news.

The same lady as last night was on it. She started to speak. "Thanks to state lawyer, Courtney Barlow, we have figured out that Pennsylvania citizen, Duncan Nelson, is the criminal who robbed the bank. We have all of our officers searching for him, and we expect to see him in court within the next week." She was wrong. They were never going to catch Duncan. And if they did, It would not be that soon. I laughed. Then a breaking news sign popped up on the screen. It read:

The Criminal, Duncan Nelson, who had robbed the bank, stole a lot of citizens money. Luckily, all who are worried about their savings have gained their money back, because the criminal, Duncan Nelson, has finally been caught...........
