Chapter 10
(Conner)
It had been five long days, and we couldn't find Haven anywhere. She just left, and Maya was still with Eric. We have no clue where she is, and I had to catch my plane to Italy. I told him to call me if she finds him, but I was devastated when I had to leave. Just to come here and question a suspect. Why?
I stepped into the room, and waited for the policemen to bring in the suspect.
He did.
Nailah Issa. That was her name. She sat gracefully into the wooden armchair and rested her two elbows onto the metal table. Her black hair hung down her back and curled around her face impeccably, and her peanut butter skin seemed flawless. Blue eyes could stare back at you, and you'd think you were knocked over the chair. A skinny Egyptian Asp snaked around both of her upper arms along with a genuine Egyptian headband. She dressed in a black tank top, and jeans that clung to her skin. Nailah wore sneakers for significant reasons, and she didn't look to happy about where she was.
"Nailah Issa, I presume," I said looking through her papers.
Her face expression was ruthless, and I couldn't help but gulp.
"Well, that's what it says on my papers right?" she said in a heavy Spanish accent.
Hm, wearing Egyptian jewelry, but has a Spanish accent. Check.
"No need to be a smartass," I said.
She shrugged and looked around.
"Do do you want to tell me about Pablo Ramos?" I asked.
She chuckled, and It sent a shiver down my back. It sounded way to dangerous.
"We don't call him by his first name. We call him Peoples," she said.
I eyed her.
"So are you going to tell me about Peoples?"
"What's in it for me?" she asked.
I slammed my hands down on the table.
"There is nothing in it for you! You could go to jail!" I retorted.
She shinned her teeth.
"You really think so? Uh, okay. If you say so," she said.
This is going to be harder then I thought.
(Eric)
Maya sat in my lap as she demanded to look at Roll Bounce instead of Elmo, which I think is quite weird considering she's five!
I heard Conner's door shut and immediately got suspicious. Conner isn't here.
"Maya ,I'll be back. Okay?"
She nodded and sat down on the bed sipping on her Capri Sun.
I exited the penthouse, and went over to Conner's. His door was cracked open so I went in and heard footsteps all the way in the back.
"...got my clothes, my tooth brush." I recognized that voice.
Haven.
"Where have you been?" I exclaimed, not taking anytime.
She spun around, and cringed.
"What do you want Bra man?" she asked turning back around to pack her stuff.
I was confused.
"What?"
"Oh please! When were you going to tell me you had a lingerie store in the back of your closet hm? All shapes and sizes!" she spat.
