"Mr. Robinson on the night on April 1st 2018. You told police that you were working late on the night of your wife's murder. I'm I correct?"
"Yes"
"So how is it ladies and gentlemen of the Jury that he said when question again by his attorney that he was home 'resting'."
"I..I was I have gotten confused by the time..m..my wife died"
"Not only did your boss claim you never came into work but also stated you had been fired for assaulting a co-worker. Is that correct Mr. Robinson?"
A small smirk form on my face when I saw him shiver at me saying his name. I can not wait to actually do this in front of a real court.
"N...yes?"
"Ladies and gentlemen of the jury have you ever forgotten when a love one has passed? Matter of fact your wife or husband, you never forget that day that moment you received that call that your love one has died. We can't possibly believe that Mr. Robinson would? He's been married for 15yrs and also stated they were the perfect couple. Is it possibly for him to have killed his wife? He lied twice already that we know of. His wife was found exactly 8 houses away from the house. She doesn't have a job where could she be at 2 am?"
"She we..went for a run"
"Get to the point Ms. Nottage"
Mrs. Goldberg my professor say from across the room eyeing us. I completely ignore her and continue my questioning."In jeans? The autopsy said she had done no physically moments that could justify that length in jeans. Mr. Robinson a few of your family members and neighbors have stated your a light sleeper. How could you not have heard 5 gun shots. One more question Mr. Robinson. Did you kill your wife?"
I stare at Daniel watching as he starts to sweats looking at our fellow classmates nervously. If I don't get an A on this...shoots."I..I don't know? Did I?"
I fellow his eyes looking at Lola my opponent, as if he really was Mr. Robinson. She looks at him in disbelief and annoyed."Omg... OBJECTION"
"Overruled"
We hear the bell ringing from outside the door.
"We'll continue this next week by then every other group should be ready also, you can leave.""Your good"
I bring my attention back to Daniel, watching him step off the small stage besides the board, breathing deeply as if he was really on trail. I couldn't help but smile at his compliment. I am aren't I."Ms. Nottage that was really good for a newbie. I'm impressed.I'll see you next class."
My smile only grew leaving the class I couldn't believe how far I've come... A normal life, boring but I rather not have to worry about people trying to kill me.
I get in my car to head back to my house (yes I bought a house here),all I could think about is just how everything turned out.
Graduated a month ago, they decided to close down the school since parents wouldn't allow their children to walk into a place people "died". Wonder what the hell they think there walking on all day. Because of that we did online classes.
Lisa turned herself in, not that she had a choice, she also told on Wyatt and Xavier. She got 3yrs while Wyatt got life, since it was his plan and she did come forward so that lessened her sentence. And Xavier dead so can't charge him.
Mr. Morgan went to prison for sexually assaulting a minor. He deserved it he gave Sarah my number 1 spot in the school, although that was changed when everyone found out the truth...but still Sarah? Who would believe that? Speaking of plastic her parents placed her in a 'boarding school' to straighten her out, like that would help.
Copper did not go to jail because Sarah decided to 'make it up' to him for cheating. I think he went to college on a football scholarship?
Luke and Maya started dating...zero surprise there.
And lastly Selena and Maria repeated apparently Sarah wasn't the only one going down low. Although Selena won't be doing another year over, she's hospitalize from the damage to her digestive system.
Two weeks after everything happen I surprised Maggie with the restaurant her response almost warmed my cold heart. I had also given Pat my bar.. I mean why not I own 3 more and a hotel.
Leaving the company was a bit tricking because no one knew who I really was, but the 'unknown' owner was cool with it. After turning 18 getting the company fully to myself I decided to sell it to the 'Adams' family. It's the least I could do killing their son and all...I chuckled to myself as I park into my drive way, like I did it from them, more like the cash. I donating 30% of it to some charities. The look on there face when I handed them that check.Walking over to my door I notice two people knocking on the door. I clear my throat to gain their attention.
Watching them turn around I see and middle age woman, my nose takes notice of the cookies in the hands. Her smile doesn't vanish when it's not like returned. I move my head to look at the second character and double take.
Standing by my door is a 6'1 tall and handsome Greek God with heterochromia eyes one light brown the other green.
I felt my heart speed up taking deep breaths I try to calm my breathing.WHAT THE HELL IS MY HEART DOING? YOUR GOING TO GIVE ME A DAMN HEART ATTACK.
"May I help you?"
My eyes land on the woman, my face remind completely blank as I feel him staring at me."Oh..Hello we're the next door neighbors do you live here?"
No I just love to pack my car by random people's houses.
I swallow the words as I say another."Yes mam I do"
"We're your next door neighbors we just wanted to bring you and your parents some welcome to the neighborhood cookies."
Her smile only grows as she speaks to me... Doesn't her cheeks hurt?"Thank you"
A fake smile falls on my face as I walk towards them by the door, getting hand the cookies. I exclude the fact that I live by myself. I don't know these people...what if they're murders or something I wouldn't want to kill hi..THEM...them already."It's lovely meeting you. This is my son."
My glaze my eyes at him saying nothing. He looks at me as if trying to read me...good luck with that.
I see his mother hit him lightly in the arm as if to stop his day dreaming.
He stretches his arm out before speaking"Roman"
His says his name smooth his deep voice playing over in my head like a broken recorder. He looks at me in anticipation for my response. I see his eyes sprinkle with interest as it vanish as soon as it came."Lilith"
I smirk as I shake his hand ignoring the sparks that ran all over my body.
Guess this is my normal life.
