Chapter One: Blood Is Thicker Than Coffee Part 2 

Lutheia Nicole Alvarez 

After 17 mins ay dumating na din ang mga pulis. A woman who looked in her mid 20s appeared, walking in our direction.

"I'm Inspector Ivonne and you are?" She extended her hand as a greeting "Lutheia Nicole Alvarez. Pleased to meet you Inspector." wika ko naman at tinanggap yun.

"May kaibigan ka pala?" bungad ni Inspector Ivonne kay Azrael na kasalukuyang masama ang tingin. 

If looks could kill, she would be dead right now.

"We just bumped into each other." He said, then he added "Stop thinking stupid things Ivonne." nginitian lang sya ni Inspector at lumapit sa biktima.

"Rosalinda Ferrero. 29 yrs old A teacher of Financial Markets As I've told you over the phone she was poisoned. " tumango lang si Inspector at tinignan din ang malamig na bangkay.

"The estimated time of death is 9:45 A.M and I found this on the floor" Azrael took out a small bottle "containing sodium hydroxide." dagdag ni Azrael habang seryosong nakatingin kay Inspector.

Inabot ni Azrael kay Inspector yung bote at tinignan lang ito ng saglit at inabot sa tauhan niya para kumpirmahin ang laman nito.

"Nataranta siguro yung suspect kaya hindi niya namalayan na nahulog " mahinang dagdag ko at napalingon ako sa mga taong nasa paligid.

To my surprise, a particular person keeps looking at our direction. Pero nang magtama ang paningin namin ay agad siyang nag iwas. 

"The killer should be educated.. It's so easy to tell who committed the crime." wika ni Azrael at tumawa. Hindi ko alam pero medyo nakakatakot tumawa si Azrael. 

"There are three potential suspect." Azrael pointed out where those three are at the moment.

"Mika Crisostomo. 22 yrs old an employee and have been working here for 2 months and the one who discovered the body." tinuro nya si Mika na kasalukuyang nakaupo.

"She was the one who brought them their drinks and pastries." dagdag pa ni Azrael

"Derick Valdez. Rosalinda's lover the two of them supposed to have their wedding next week June 4 20**. " tinuro niya naman yung malaking lalaki na nakaupo at tulala.

The victim's companion.

"Whew. ang init sa pilipinas pero naka-leather jacket pa din." pabirong sabi ni Inspector pero nang mapansin niya na sinamaan siya ng tingin ni Azrael ay agad itong nag sorry.

"The man standing beside him is Frederick Valdez, his brother. I don't know what's going on with him and his brother but I'm guessing that he's a third party in their relationship. " huminga pa ng malalim si Azrael na parang hiningal siya sa pagsasalita.

"He admitted that he was here to spy on his brother and the victim." I added. 

Biglang lumapit yung isang tauhan ni inspector samin at inabot yung bote na nakita ni Azrael kanina. "Inspector katulad ng inaasahan sodium hydroxide ang ginamit ng suspect sa pag patay at may nakuha din kaming finger print." that solves the case.

"May nakita din kaming gelatin capsule sa inumin ng biktima Inspector." dagdag nito bigla kong naalala na halos kasabayan ko lang sila na pumasok sa coffee shop. 

"Mahigit isang oras din sila dito sa coffee shop." wika ko at inalala kung anong ginagawa ng tatlo sa mga panahong nakatingin ako sa kanila kanina.
