Chapter 02
I resumed fully at the college, I'm majoring in Fine arts, works out well since my aunt works at an art gallery. I live in an apartment not so far away from the college.
"Hey K.C" I nodded as my roommate, Jennifer walked into our apartment
"What's up??" I asked her
"Classes and I heard we have a field trip" I sighed and rolled on the bed. So much for studying in America
"I'm hungry" I groaned and looked at Jenny
"Wanna grab lunch??" She asked looking at me
"Yeah, I do"
"But I'm lazy" I said putting on a puppy face
"Not working, get up" she rolled her eyes
"It was worth a shot I guess" I grabbed my phone from the table
************
"Look at what the cat dragged in" I heard Merissa say as we walked into the restaurant
"B*tch" she coughed
"It's like the slap I gave you the other day was not resounding enough, abi??" I hit her on the head
"She's not worth it" Jenny said pulling me back
"Why don't you find us a table?, I'll bring our food over" she let go of my hand
"Oponu" I walked away from their table and sat by the table beside the window
"She's such a copycat, just because we're sitting by a window" Merissa said
"She's envious of us" Bella, her 'side kick' replied
"Emmm... you mean me, don't you??" Merissa asked eyeing Bella, I scoffed
"Ye... yeah... I do mean you" Bella replied looking a bit shocked
"Are you guys even friends?? Or are you just her follower??" I chuckled
"The food is here" Jenny sat in front of me
"Looks yummy" I said dropping my phone on the table
*************
"Emm...I forgot to tell you, I'd be spending my weekend at aunty Jane's place" I informed Jennifer as we walked home
"No problem, I would have loved to come along but I have a project to work on" she said looking at me
"No quams, I'll tell her you said hi tho" I replied
"So how's Josh??" I raised my eyebrows
"Whaaaaaat??! He's cool" she replied blushing
"See this one oh, for your mind" I said laughing
"Jenny and Josh sitting on a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G"
"He said he was gonna come over this weekend and you wouldn't be around so..." I raised my eyebrows
"No carry Belle ohhh" I said laughing
"What's Belle??" She looked serious
"Ha, I mean don't get pregnant, I won't babysit" I said running off
"Come back here" she said chasing after me
************
"Officer, what's going on here??" I asked as I saw police cars parked in front of our house
"Do you live here??" The black policeman asked me
"Yes sir, I went over to my Aunt's place for the weekend" I explained
"Why??"
"A miss Jennifer Aston was murdered here last night" He informed me
"It's not true, no that can't be true" I whispered and the man pointed at the body bag on top of a stretcher. As I opened the bag, I shook my head vigorously and fell back to the ground hitting my head other ground.
How could this have happened??!!!
