Klee told me that it’s better if I’d sleep with her over the night and continue all the worries tomorrow. I did accept her offer.
I woke up 4:00 am in the morning and Klee’s still sleeping.
I bothered her last night, it’s time to leave her in peace.
I got home first, cooked my breakfast which was the job of my aunt before, I lightened a candle on the living room and prayed for my aunt. I ate my breakfast, I fed Merrica and took my bathe and here I go…………………………………………………..I’m private Investigator Elliot Antonia Martini.
I went to Roy’s house, I brought the watch I bought yesterday.
Knock, knock, knock……………
Roy opened the gate,
“Oh, you’re already awaken?” I asked.
“I was about to visit you at Klee’s house because last night, she told me to come and talk to you”
“Can I come in?”
“Why not?”
Together, we came inside and placed ourselves in his garden.
“I wanted to ask a help?” I stated my intention.
“What help?”
“Georgina’s getting a lot worse, anyone who she thinks might reveal her secret; she kills them.”
“So what do you wanna do?”
“I need to trap her, she must not know that I’d put her to jail. Because if that would happen, she might kill also those who are close to me and I’m afraid it’s you and Klee. Oh wait!” I said.
I called Amethyst………….phone ringing………….
“Hello Elliot this is Georgina again” it answered.
I turned off the call again.
“I can’t contact Amethyst, every time I call on her phone Georgina’s the one who’s answering it. Maybe she had also killed Amethyst, maybe before Georgina killed Amethyst she had blackmailed her.” I reported.
“What would Georgina even blackmail to Amethyst?” Roy asked.
“Where do I live? Where do you live? Where do Klee lives? And what is really my intention to her?”
Roy deeply sighed.
“Do you think we need Marcus?” Roy asked.
“Why the hell would we trust a criminal? He’s one of the person I’m trying to lock in the jail yet we’re going to ask him of how to trap Georgina and so on him also?”
“When he was still living here, I saw his ability to formulate stuffs. He was a lawyer before.”
“Still we can’t trust him, and what do he know about trapping?” I insisted.
“His good in tactics and if we won’t try, we won’t know”
“So where is he know?”
“He told me that if ever I’d change my mind, I’ll just see him beside the oldest bowling tower.”
“Let’s go” I told Roy.
We went to the bowling tower, I don’t know of why the heck that Marcus gets himself a shelter in that kind of place.
We searched around the sides of the old tower and I know I must not be but I did really get amused…………………………………….
The walls of his tiny house are all made of red stones, not diamonds but red sedimentary stones. His door is made up of black metamorphic stones. When we entered, I saw a trash radio which he reinvented and made it as his own entertainment. We saw a chamber in the middle, it was lightened with fire and it makes every place in his house warm and pleasant to stay in. His roof is still made up of stones.
“Hi Roy and Elliot!” Marcus greeted, “You know I don’t have some gates but it’s still informal for you to enter my territory.”
“I’m sorry Marcus, but you know I like the concept of your house.” Roy commented.
“You know why this is made up of stones? So that when someone tries to put my house on fire, it would explode and he as the suspect would also turn into a victim”
“Why in this ugly place?” I asked.
“Because I like it here, it’s peaceful and out of the judgemental crowd” He tried to hit me with his words.
OUCH!
“Uhm, sorry for the disturb Marcus. We just really need you for something” Roy said.
“For what?” Marcus asked.
“Elliot already knows everything about herself, she’s planning to trap Georgina and find a way to put her to jail”
“Why put her to jail if you could kill her?”
“Are you stupid? Instead of Georgina, we will be stocked in jail!” I interrupted.
“Calm down…….you can freely sit on the chairs out there”
We sat on the vacant chairs and Marcus placed himself in front of us.
“I need your loyalty” I told Marcus.
“I’m gonna have to negotiate with the both of you, if I’d help you and we’d successfully lock that stupid faggot in the jail then you won’t put me to jail and you’d leave my life peacefully” Marcus said.
“Since your fault is only to my sister, which caused out this big terrible problem, your still supposed to be in jail. But you’re not that dangerous, so maybe I can accept that negotiation.” I agreed.
We already started planning…………………………………………….
Marcus: “Okay, your cooperation will help us succeed but no betrayals please; you don’t know me when I’m angry; understood?
“Yup, yup, yup………..now start the plan” I said.
Marcus: “Tomorrow morning, you’re going to California. Tell her to come over here with you, don’t ever give her some clues about of what would really happen.”
“So I’m going to bring her here?” I asked.
Marcus: “Yes, but while she’s here……Roy will go to their house in California and search all over her house; especially on her bedroom. Maybe she kept some of the evidences out there. Can you do that Roy?”
“I will” Roy firmly replied.
“What will she do here? Wouldn’t she think that I’m starting to play a trick on her?”
Marcus: “No, just say that she’s here so that she wouldn’t get suffocated around the things on her side, act as if you’re a sincere friend; I know you’re good at that. Leave her on your house for some minutes, say that you’ll just buy some foods in the market; then come back here. Report to me what you had suddenly happen to notice around her moves, so that we can make an action, maybe will change the plan or stick around it.”
“Wait, why won’t we just use our cellular phones?” I asked in the middle of a great confusion.
Marcus: “It’s very dangerous, many things my possibly happen. Maybe she could notice that you keep on using your phone……that may result to a tragic.”
“Or she’ll hear you talking with us with the things she doesn’t have to know.” Roy added.
I nodded yes.
Marcus: “Elliot, entertain her until at the end of the day. The next morning, at the very, very morning………while she’s still sleeping, come back here and we’ll inform you about what will Roy discover. We’ll also see if we can already call the assistance of the police, if the NBI’s already ready to capture Georgina with the warrant of arrest; you must act as if you know nothing and you must act as if you’re resisting and we’ll remain unknown.”
“That would be a very clever plan” Roy said.
“I just realize, Georgina’s just one lady yet we’re acting as if she’s Osama Bin Laden.”
Marcus: “Because she’s smart and psychotic, it would take a life to defeat her face to face. We must live a life peacefully after this.”
“You’re right” I agreed.
