Justice for Julie

Chapter 9 (LAST CHAPTER)

                Chapter 9

                The police burst into the house and located the man right away.

                "PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR MIKE WALLBURG," The police shouted at Mr. Wallburg.

                Another police said," You have the right to remain silent; you have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford one, one will be appointed to you-"

                "What did I do," Shouted Mr. Wallburg.

                "Where were you the morning of July 16th?" I asked walking into the room, Jack behind me.

                "I... I-I .... Um..." he stuttered.

                A police came behind him and reached for his neck.

                "Yep, he has the tattoo."

                "IM NOT GUILTY! Please don't arrest me," he begged.

                Smile widening, Eyes glowing, I said, "You messed with the wrong person."

                "Why did you kill her sister?" Jack asked.

                "Because! I loved her!" Wallburg shouted.

                "So you... killed her?" I try to grasp what he is telling me.

                 "She left me! She said she would get back with me after she got done with collage but rumors started circulating that she had a new handsome charming boy friend. If I can't be happy she most definitely can't!" He sobbed, the pain shinning on his face.

            "You are like 10 years older than her!" I spit, disgust running through my veins like poison.

             "We were in love!" He says back with a sincere cry that almost made me feel sorry for him for just a second. Almost.

            "You’re going to rot in jail," I hiss through clinched teeth. Then the police step in-between us.

                "Thanks for the help but you can leave the rest to us," A police officer said.

                We watched them drag him away and after every one was gone I flung myself into Jack's arms. I felt arms wrap around me in an embrace.

                "We did it," I boosted not letting him go.

                "You did," he murmured.

                I looked up into his hazel eyes, still in each other's arms. He leaned closer to me. Sighing, I gave in and our lips met. He held me close as we kissed. It was sweet. All my sadness and anger about Wallburg killing Julie melted away in thaw one pure kiss that I would never forget. We pulled apart and he murmured:

                "Julie, wherever she may be, is looking down at you, proud of you, that you brought her murderer to Justice."
