The letter

Just then, I saw a gun on the table right next to Eddie. Maybe he had forgotten that he dropped it there, I don't really know the exact reason he left the gun lying around unattended. All these questions don't matter anymore because before Eddie could stop me, I grabbed the gun and shot him. Yes, I shot Eddie. I shot him like three more times before I panicked. I didn't know what I was supposed to do. The others were coming and I needed a good explanation why Eddie lay faced down on the floor.
