The Stopwatch in Me

Prologue

Zoe is holding her loving sister in her arms, not minding the blood that covers the floor and her hands. Trembling in fear, gasping for hope from the heavens to give her sister another life, she gets her sister's phone from her pocket. Tears all over her eyes, she hardly breathes as she sobs.

Ring... Ring...

Hello 911, can you please come over to our home? Someone attacked my sister, please... she's badly bleeding.

Hello? Where are you? Are you alright?

Please come over my sister will die, please, she needs your help.

I want you to stay calm, get some clothes to cover your sister's wound. Help is on its way. May I know How Old Are You?

I'm n ten.

And what's your name?

Z-Zoe

Are you alone with your sister right now?

...

Please, she's weakening...

~~~

Sister, dear sister, you'll be in peace soon.

What happened, Zoe?

"The last person I saw with Amie was her boyfriend, James. I saw them when I was watering the flowers in my windows." Said Ana, Amie's Best friend.

"Shut up, Anna! You were the last person with Amie. Before the incident happens, I called her. I asked her where she is, and she said she's shopping with you. She was wearing the same clothes when she died."

Few days after the investigation took place, the newest detective found new information about the case.

Excuse me I, think both of their alibis are flawed. First, Anna, as far as I know, is allergic to flowers, and her home is two blocks away from Amie's. Second, Amie and James had a big fight yesterday. Amie doesn't answer his phone calls whenever they fight, and they never saw each other on that day, so how can James know what Amie was wearing on that day?
