"Looks like you were expecting me" I asked Nicca. Nicca is the commissioner of the department. The department looks down on him as he is the youngest to achieve this position in a decade or two. He is my friend and rival. We are the same age. I chose my path as an investigation unit while he wanted to be the one to give order hence he chose director's footsteps. His father was the previous commissioner. In fact, he did get his position due to that. However, that does not mean he isn't worthy of it. He has had the aura of the head from his school days.

"For quite a long time. What do u think?" he said with a smile on his face.

"If this was for political reasons it would've been just another murder. But it looks like it's done to prove a point sir. More like vengeance"

"I would agree if it weren't for the nearing elections," Nicca said and stood up from his chair with the same smile.

"You're saying that as a commissioner. Anyway I'll keep that in mind sir".

"How are you planning to proceed then?" he asked with a serious look.

"From the looks of it and the information I got while coming here, I'd say this was a very well planned and executed murder. He was coming back from his mistress's place and very conveniently, the fuel ran out at the cliff where there is no human activity due to the haunting rumors. In addition, near the car they seem to have found a stick with a coating of fuel. I am going to go over the place once at night for better look" I said.

"Great man. Haa uff. I guess you planned everything. Good. Go for it. Good luck. If you find anything that might turn the case bring that to me. This is a direct order. The opposition party might try to harm you if they were the ones who did it" he said. His eyes twitched a bit.

I nodded my head slightly and went out. I must get home soon and explain the situation to her. She might be looking for me. Today was supposed to be my off. (sigh)

"Hey Ril, we were supposed to have brunch! Where were you? Do you have any idea how long I was waiting for you? ".

I ran towards her after seeing her in our home safe, and hugged her. She took a long breath and asked.

"What's up babe? You look tensed. Are you worried about something? Something happened at work?" she shot her question arrows.

She had this look where she asks with just her eyebrow 'is everything fine?' Aw man I love her and I don't think I can ever get over her.

"I don't think if you can take it" I said.

"Ril Jan, we have promised each other that we will share hard things so that we'll feel at ease" how will you know if I can take it or not if you won't share it with me" she said. I smiled looking at her. Among many women I have interacted with, she is the person whom I can call perfect. Not because of her looks or anything. But she is the most natural person among my peers. She has dark circles at times. Her lips mostly look dry. She don't do million night or morning skin routine. She is not someone who wax or shaves on our every date. Her hair is not always frizz free. Though it looks soft after shampooing. She is not some fictional girl. She is my real ideal women. She hate calls. But when it comes to me she listens my crappy day. She hates cooking for others but for me she makes my favorite. She hugs me when I'm about to lose my cool and man that works will be an understatement. Our relationship wasn't perfect from the start but whose is? But I can say her love just from her eyes which almost cries everyday I complain about my bad day. That also doesn't mean ma'am doesn't have any flaws but that's what makes her perfect.

"Not now. Now is not the time. I'll say everything when it's the right time" and just like that she gave me her look 'better say soon'. It so magical isn't, when you know a person in and out you can say what they mean with one look.

"Alright. You hungry?" she asked.

"Yeah". I said smiling. My Tia is the only person right now who can give me some good time and happiness.

Its 11:32, I took my flashlight and my phone to go search the crime spot. As I was near it, I could swear someone was following me. I took my gun out slowly without making any sound. I held the gun close to my heart. As I was about to turn a butterfly landed on me, 'shit' before I could turn, the feeling beside me faded away. Sighing I went towards the spot.

Today morning the place was so different compared to now. It's ominous. I went towards the spot, I can imagine the way the body lying on the floor. Blood oozing from the face and without male sexual part, anal covered in blood. Apart from the body, there was no other evidence that forensic team found. The blood samples are no use. But how? Negative!
