New day, new morning. I woke up at 7 a.m. I brushed my teeth. It's been a month now that we are living together as housemates. He at 5a.m. leaves for his acting job and me for my college. Never knew, I would get easily used to this lifestyle but I should start to look for a place.
At college,
'Hey! Rinaaaaaa, Come hereeee.' yelled Emma.
I came running to her sensing some urgency.
'What happened?'
'Well, the police officer with that detective arrived at the college again and was looking for you. Did you do something crime?'
'What? No! But, anyways! Where are they now?'
'Well, yeah. In the office!'
I climbed straight up through the stairs to the office.
'Sir, May I come in?'
'Ohoo! We again meet each other today.'
'Well! You were looking for me. So, obviously...'
He cleared his throat as if he was going to tell something very important in his serious tone.
(In my mind) 'Wait! Was anybody murdered again?'
'Come sir here on the chair, first.'
I sat and seeing his expressions my body straightened up.
'I think you already know why I have called you!' He sighed.
'Ee..to.. Did you just read my mind?'
He smirked at me as if I was at wrong somewhere.
'Well, it is something related to your father.'
'No..no...way, is my fa...father..'
He interrupted me. 'Wait!'
'Before panicking, listen to me first.'
'Your father was attacked.'
'Is he okay?' I stood up from m chair.
'Well, calm down. I heard you have parted your ways from your father and your mother is also..'
'I know that you have already known everything since you have investigated my background. But, please come to your point. I hope you don't get personal, please. It is irritating.'
'Hmm.. I like your attitude. Anyways! One of his bodyguard is injured. And somehow, one of our CCTV camera got hold of this image. Well, the side face is slightly visible, here. Do you have any idea who can it be? I mean, do your father have someone who has grudge against him? Do you have anyone in your mind suspicious?'
I took the photo in my hand. When I saw the side face, I really felt like I have seen him somewhere but where?
I looked straight up in the detective's eyes.
'Anyone?'
'I feel like I have seen him somewhere. But where? I don't seem to know it.'
He nodded.
'Well, can I keep this photo with me?'
'Well, yeah. Why not? Just keep it a secret.'
I stepped out of the room only to saw Ajay coming in my way.
With a worried and concerned expression he asked, 'Are you okay? Is everything okay?'
'Yes... I am okay.'
'No, I heard that your father were attacked, yesterday, on his return from his office.'
'How do you know?'
'The newspaper has headline about it.'
'I see...'
He then moved to my sides and continued to walk towards the office but wait!
'Why do I feel that there is a similarity between his sides and that of the man in the photo?' I mumbled.
'Big Sis, what happened? How did your conversation went with the police?' asked Aisha.
'Well, still nothing solved.'
'I have to tell you something, Big Sis. Be aware of Ajay. It's just when we told him about that you were talking with the detective currently, his face turned pale.'
I fell into the wonders of thoughts.
'Students, come to the ground for your practice. Now!'
'Hey! Now let's go. Don't waste any more time.'
