Chapter 32

"What did da police say?" August asked me as I sat on a bar stool by the island.

"They said they did a small walk through but are gonna go back in the morning to see if they could lift any finger prints,"

He nodded, "aight. I think you should get some rest then. It's late"

"Yeah...I just hope I can get some sleep. I keep racking my mind wondering who could have done this" I replied still in deep thought.

"Mustve been some random robbery...ya don't look like you have any enemies?" August said awaiting my confirmation.

I shook my head.

"Exactly...some nigga prolly decided to cash in on one of ya building's fancy ass apartments...unfortunately it was yours." He finished

What August was saying made a lot of sense but for some reason, my mind kept coming back to the same person.....Helena.

The next day

"OK Ms Montgomery, I'm Detective Wilkes with the Miami Dade Police. The CSI team and I are gonna do a walk through so you can identify any thing out of place or missing " The tall Sandy haired officer told me over Dawn's iphone.

"Imma connect with my iPad cause they won't let me in since they gonna be collecting evidence," Dawn peeked over the police man's shoulder to say before disappearing.

I sighed, rubbing my neck, preparing to see inside my apartment for the first time in over a month.

August had gone to the studio earlier and wouldn't be back until tonight most likely.

"Aight I'm here," Dawn said after joining onto the FaceTime call.

The police proceeded to enter my apartment.

"Oh my God," I said before cupping my Hand over my mouth. My entire apartment looked like a war zone. My couch was overturned, lamps had fallen to the floor. My book shelf had been shifted from the corner where it stood. My kitchen was even messier.

The officer walked passed the bathroom where I glimpsed a CSI person dusting for prints, I would guess.

My room was also filthy. My perfectly made bed I had left looked like a tornado had blown through. My dresser drawers were all opened and my DVD collection was sprawled across the floor.

"Could you open my jewelry box on the night stand?" I asked the detective.

He did so and I scanned over all my pieces of jewelry

"Everything is there," I said furrowing my eyebrows in thought.

"I told you girl. Whoever did this didn't take a thing...So it ain't no robbery," Dawn concluded.

We scanned the rest of my apartment and it was exactly that, nothing was missing.

"Are you satisfied ms Montgomery with the walk through?" Officer Wilkes asked.

" Yes detective," I said as he nodded and began existing the building.

"Wait wait. Hold on detective," I said as something caught my eye in the corner of my living room poking out from beneath a broken flower pot.

"There's something in the dirt that's on the floor.....there, next to the flower pot" I directed him.

He walked over being careful no to walk in the pile of dirt that was strewn across my carpet.

"There's a black bag in there, " he said.

"I didn't have any black bags in my house sir, " i said starting to feel uneasy.
