"Pumpkin" her dad smiled hugging."You're back already" her mum said coming out from the kitchen."What's wrong? Why did you have to go him? Why weren't you picking my calls?" She asked."Woah easy" her dad laughed, "I was too occupied and my phone was on silent" he explained."We had to go out for something that's why I rushed over" her mum explained."You know you could have replied my text than keeping me worried" Cheryl pouted."I'm so sorry baby" her mum pouted too and they laughed."So you're dad got ice cream for movie night, he wasn't able to get the permit" Mrs Roberts explained and her husband nodded in affirmation."It's fine, I couldn't even eat at my dinner" Cheryl scoffed."I thought so too, so I made dinner" her mum said while her dad left for his room to return the documents he was working on."You're the best" she said and headed to the dinning."Won't you at least change" her mum laughed."I just might faint on the stairs" she whined.Kyle's POV::
I managed to get myself home somehow and I locked myself up in my room, why should this be happening to me, was I a sinner in my past life? Or a murderer? I kept asking myself. Family issues indeed! Was this why she didn't show up for a year? And she was so free around me, who wouldn't be scared of being friends with a cop? I kept trying so hard to take the image off my head. How could she be killing with so much ease? She looks gentle, no, she is gentle. What exactly is going on? I didn't even have the strength to cry no more, I just stared blankly at the darkness that engulfed my room."Kyle please open up, I know you don't wanna see me" Karina said softly from outside."Please just...." I cut her off as I drew her into a hug. I didn't even know when I walked to the door but at that moment I needed some comfort."Is gonna be fine" she muttered patting my back, "I don't know what's wrong but it's gonna be fine" she kept soothing with her words."Just sleep beside me" I said."Bunny" she blushed, "I will" she said.THE NEXT DAY...CHERYL'S POV
Movie night wasn't so bad and dad had left for work already, mom left to the boutique already, though she'd be back soon so I decided to step out for some air too, I had texted Kyle to apologise for last night but he wouldn't reply and I felt sad.I was taking a walk down the street when someone grabbed by neck nearly choking me to death, looking at her face it was the psycho."What the fuck" I gasped trying to release myself."You... How dare you" she glared daggers at me."Psycho.... Let... Me... Go" I gasped for air and her eyes widened as she let go off me staring at me for a while before rushing off.I choked for a while trying to catch my breathe, "what's wrong with this city" I scoffed and looked across the road to see Kyle walking out of a mall, I smiled wanting to cross over to him but a beautiful girl came out and pecked him as he smiled while they walked to a car and drove off. I could feel my heart shatter into a thousand pieces as I gathered myself and walked back home.I met mom in the kitchen and decided to join her to at least take my mind off what I saw."Hey Mom" I greeted."You're back" she said."Help me chop those" she instructed."Sure" I replied and picked up the knife to chop the onions, but couldn't help pouring my anger and frustrations on it."Cherish should have just stayed" I muttered while chopping."I wouldn't have bothered making friends, neither would I have ran into that psycho cause they'd be no need to step out, maybe I wouldn't like Kyle this much, I mean he's older, I dont expect him to like me back, he's a cop too, it's obvious he'd have a girlfriend, did they have to display it openly" I scoffed."CHERYL!!!" my mom yelled and cut my wrist in the process."Ouchhhh" I winced in pain.

I didn't know when I laughed out."Oh please don't mind me, carry on" I said gesturing at Karina."Karina" Kyle called again, but she dragged him down."I'm Karina, his twin sister" she smiled"Kid sister" he scoffed and Cheryl breathed out like she was pulled out from drowning."Three years ain't much difference" the beauty said."You see, he really wants to set things straight between you guys, I haven't seen him this way over a

The news that Cheryl had been released got to him, the joy he felt was like that of a man whom his wife had just put to birth.
