I open the refrigerator's door. There is some canned soup. But it would be enough to full fill my hunger. I open it, then put it in a clean bowl and then microwave it. I now know that Derek is the black man, he is bad. But I can't go right now, Paul wants me to stay home and spend some time with him.

He doesn't understand how annoying he can be at times, or how uncomfortable he can make a person. I take out the bowl from the micro wave and sit on the couch. Jus then Paul comes out of his room, clearly astonishing me, he dyed his hair but what's worse, he dyed them black.

I try not to laugh, he gives me a what look. "My friend suggested to dye them black, it was clearly my friend." He says holding his hands up and sitting on the couch beside me, "Where have you been lately?" He asks, running a hand through his hair.

"I've been busy." I say, and he raises his eyebrows, "Doing what?" He asks dully, he is pushing it again! He is becoming a pain. "Well, I start work tomorrow, so I've been warming up." I say with a light shrug.

"Sooooo is there anything I could eat?" He asks, I told him he could have anything he wanted but I guess it would be more better if I get it to him. "I'll see." I say getting up and making my way to the fridge. "There is some canned spaghetti, also some canned mushrooms, and a left over slice of cake." I tell him, I really need to run for groceries.

"Um mm I'd take the spaghetti, it would be better if you would microwave it." He suggests and opens a newspaper. I sigh and microwave his speghatti and then serve it to him. "Any plans for tomorrow?" He asks, and takes a bite of his spaghetti.

"As you know I've got work and then I need to run some very important errands, also if you need anything special you may tell me." I say trying to be kind. He thinks for a moment and then finally says, "If you don't mind I'd like some pasta and oh broccoli wold be perfect! Also something like snapper, oh thats it! Snapper............."

"It would be better if you made a list," I say in a very irritated manner. He nods and searches for a paper and a pen, when he finally finds one he starts scribbling down words on it. After a few minutes he gives it to me, I sigh and take it;

Broccoli, pasta,snapper,pineapples,duck,coke(at least five cans), .........

The list goes on forever. How the hell am I going to afford this? I need to tell it him that I can't afford all this, so in the best and most not rudest way I start, "Um mm Paul, actually the things in this list would cost a lot, so well you see it would be hard for me to pay and that is why I am guessing that I would have to cut......"

"Take this, and use it for all the groceries." He interrupts me and hands me a bundle of money, Holy crap!

----------------------------

I unbuckle my seatbelt. I decided that I should go and try to find some evidence against Derek, then I would go to work. I go up to the barn. Its early morning. The sun is about to rise, but above that its really dark and cold.

The barn looks so peaceful. All the animals look so innocent sleeping - accept the pigs of course. I go to the little hut. That is where Derek lives. That is where maybe Carper is. In that hut could be anything. The truth. OK I'm just exaggerating.

I walk over to the back side. There is a very small lawn with three black chairs in it. That is when i notice the big sliding glass door is half open, I quickly hide on the side and just as I'm about to look inside I hear a hushed voice.

In a panicked way I duck around the corner. Then I press my ear. At first the voice doesn't make any sense, then I realize a word, Alicia.

"Tell me what you were talking about?" A voice says, it is Derek. The second voice is a whimper. Alicia, "Alicia! I'm warning you! You better tell me that you DID NOT tell that God Damn Gary about me!" He is screaming now, I should go inside and help her.

"I did!" Oh My God, Alicia told him. She kind of lied, she never told me about Derek. This is so confusing. "ALICIA! WHO THE HELL DO YOU THUNK YOU ARE!!! YOU IDIOT!" He yells so loudly that I'm sure that Hus son, (that is if he's there) heard him.

"Wait! I'm gonna have to kill you! I've no other choice" he says much calmer now. But he is getting me scared. He can't kill Alicia I will not lat that happen. I need to get in there. I'll go in twenty seconds.

"Alicia! I'm sorry but I'll have to do this to Max!" He yells and I gasp. Just as I'm about to go inside, I hear a scream and then I'm too late.
