A Murder in Town

Chapter 2

My friends and I decided to just go home because of all the tiring and shocking things that happened.
"Hey mom, I'm home", I went to the kitchen and saw my mom preparing sandwiches. "You didn't go to school?", she said, " We witnessed a dead body being found in the coffee shop we went for breakfast", "what?! How?! What happened?!", "Relax mom, the polices and the FBIs handled it", "okay, just don't get yourself in trouble, you're only 17." I nodded. I can't promise not to get myself in trouble mom, I'm kind of curious about this case, I thought. I want upstairs and decided to have a rest after all what happened earlier.

I was walking down the hallway when I passed by Max Falom, the new guy. I heard he moved here last month. It's been a month and he still has no friends, he's quite distant to everybody here. "Hi, I'm Red", "Uhh, hi, sorry I gotta go", he said and ran. Okaaay? I guess he's not used to talking to people?
"Hi Red!", my friends greeted. "Hey guys, what's up?", "my professor in Chemistry gave me an F on my test just because I told her she's not my type!", William protested, and we laughed so hard! Hahaha. "Dude, don't be so hard on her, she obviously has her eyes on you, hahaha!", Luke teased. After all that, we went to our classes.
RIIING!! At last the last bell rang. I grabbed my backpack and went to the gymnasium wherein William and Luke are having their practice. I saw saw June Stewart and Savannah Young sitting on the bleachers. "Hey", I said as I sat with them, " Hi Red", Savannah said, " Red, look at the headline", June handed me a newspaper and I read the headline out loud: POLICEMAN FOUND DEAD ON THE STOCKROOM OF A COFFEE SHOP.
"The case yesterday is in the front page.", June said. I saw the picture of the crime scene yesterday, the article said that the polices have suspects but it seems like none of them killed the victim. The suspect was named Owen Parker, 45 years old, and a police. "Why would the killer kill a police?", I asked, "maybe the killer has issues with the police?", Savannah said, " there could be a lot of reasons, Red.", William said as he and Luke sat with us. " guys, we are not involved here. Let the FBIs handle their job, ok?", Luke said, taking away the newspaper. We just shrugged our shoulders and decided to go home. "I'll drive you home", Luke insisted. "Don't stress yourself about the case, ok? As I said earlier, we're not involved :) ", he said as he was driving, "Yeah, I'm not stressing myself, don't worry", I gave him an assuring smile. "Bye", luke said and he kissed my cheek when we reaches my house, " bye, thanks for the ride", I said and waved goodbye.

The week passes by quickly, nothing much happened. The case of the murder of the policeman, Owen Parker, is still going on. It didn't surprise me. No clues, no evidences. Nothing. The FBI have talked to the victim'a family and friends but they know no one who has a reason to kill Owen Parker. And I'm getting curious about it. Our town haven't handled a crime as heavy as this. Honestly, I want to know who the killer could be. I somehow dreamt to be involved in something like this, I'm a big fan of John Grisham, so I like this kind of things. I'm going to try looking for the killer and the reason why he's doing this.
