Officer Andreas’ breath grew shallow with a weakening intake of apprehension and his body was still with anxiety because he knew that everything that had been going on in the interrogation room had nothing to do with the real matter at hand. He knew that he was guilty of going beyond the scope of his right.Every question he asked Alan pointed to the pain he had in his mind from the death of his cousin. Nothing was pointing to the alleged assault or investigation about what happened at the gym.But he wasn’t going to spill his faults to the inspector.“Oh, of course, Inspector. We have gotten a little information from him,” Officer Andreas responded. “He claims that he was only minding his business but he seems to be holding back on whether he was a joint member with the other three or he really assaulted them.”Officer Andreas’ statement was only intended to complicate Alan more and make it look like he did something bad. That was the only thing he wanted. He had sworn in his mind ne

“Alright, let’s wait and see if a third witness would come. The moment there is a third testimony, make sure you secure his release irrespective of what time it may be,” Inspector Tyson instructed.Officer Andreas saluted. “Yes, Inspector.”He then left the inspector’s office and got to the counter.“Hey, madam,” he spoke to the young lady officer at the entrance of the station.“There is something I need you to do for me and I need you to be very smart about it.”“Alright Officer, I am attentive,” the lady officer spoke.“You will have to watch out for a particular person for me. I don’t know who the person is going to be but it’s most likely to be a male. The person is going to claim that he wants to testify in a matter that involves Alan Greyson. The moment you hear that name, you are to contact me about it,” Officer Andreas spoke, his voice low in a whisper.“You shouldn’t tell anyone about this assignment I am giving to you. It is very simple and straightforward, isn’t it?” The

“I really don’t know Sir. Is this about the testimony? Have I done something wrong? I just thought that it might be unfair and ungrateful if I played a blind eye to Alan saving us at the gym center.”Officer Andreas’ patience was frayed, his nostrils flared as his anger rose like a tide. “Get me the statement now!”Willock’s hands shook as he dipped his hand into his pocket before offering the paper, his fingers quivering with the weight of dread. “You are so dull after all,” Officer Andreas spoke. “You really wrote the testimony before coming here, haha. Is that how you think it’s done.”Officer Andreas received the paper and with a burst of dread, he dipped the paper into his mouth and started chewing it, each bite transferring a wave of tension through Willock’s spine.Willock’s lips were pressed into a thin line as he didn’t know what to say anymore. He just hoped that he would escape the horror that he was experiencing. He regretted not listening to the still small voice that wa

Alan’s attention was a spotlight as he grabbed the conversation that they were having and downloaded it to himself. What blood was the boy talking about? Why was he saying that he still wanted to live many years? He must have believed that the other man who is assumed to be his father wanted to kill him.He had to be his father. Yes! He called him ‘dad’ so he had to be his biological father. Alan didn’t want to believe that what he was hearing was the truth about what was going on.It was a horror experience. Why would a young boy feel so danger from his dad?Alan propelled his senses into observing a bit more of the situation that was going on again and he could see that the boy’s body was seized as if he was shocked with electricity. His limbs were shaking and responding to the tide of fear that was flowing through him.Alan was scared for the young boy and feared that he was being molested. Alan’s head dipped slightly as his ears angled toward the conversation.“But, Dad. I though

The boy’s countenance was tinged with effort as he struggled to break free from the man’s deadly grip. His teeth were clenched against the pain of the man’s grip but it was a futile effort as it seemed to be like a situation of a lamb being brought to its slaughter.The man soon succeeded in shoving his son into the mud house as he closed the door behind him.Shit! Now Alan couldn’t see what was going on inside. How was he going to save the boy if he didn’t know what was going on?Alan was a specter of danger as every motion of his was controlled and measured as he crept toward the mud house like a cat amidst the trench.He was just going to wait until he heard a scream. He knew that the boy was going to scream if he found himself in danger. He prepared himself for that moment as he agreed within himself to burst into the mud house if he heard something.Suddenly, there was a huge chaos as the boy burst out of the mud house like a startled animal, his eyes wide with terror and his fee
