" I wondered why you didn't come back and I was very bothered " Sean continued.
" So, I went downstairs and before I opened the living room door, I heard you telling Michael not to tell anyone about something "
Loretta was thinking of the next lie.
" I told him not to tell anyone that I was giving him a...... Food bar " she lied.
Sean stared blankly at his wife and shook his head. He gave a surprised look.
" And all of a sudden! Jack smith was found lying dead on the bench at his patio "
"Are you trying to say that your wife and son killed your neighbor? " Loretta said boiling a little.
" Can you keep your family issues for home? " Mrs Smith called.
Loretta and Sean eyed her and turned back .
" Please don't call the police, we'll do anything! " Loretta begged again.
Mrs Smith frowned slightly, like she had done something very terrible. Her telephone rang and she picked it up.
"Excuse me please, " she said, picking the phone up. It was Miss Andrea.
Miss Dorothy didn't make it.
Mrs Smith hung up, removed her glasses and sniffed." Mrs Dorothy has kicked the bucket I'm afraid " she said teary eyed.
Loretta broke down. She looked at Michael. He was crying too. "I didn't kill her! " he said.
" Then who did?! " Loretta asked him.
Michael stared at her in silence.She screamed again.
"Who did!? "
"I don't know, mummy! " Michael replied.
After Michael's denial, deafening silence followed. Not a sound came from the persons present.
Someone burst in.
"I'm looking for a certain Michael" the man that entered said.
He was tall and dressed in a black vest and jeans.
