"Ki...ara, how have you been??" I looked at Jamal and smiled, he smiled back
"It's Kira, we need meet up in person" I sighed
" When??" I asked her
" Tomorrow morning at that same café"
"What time??" I asked
" 4pm, don't be late" the line went dead
" K.C, who was that??" He asked putting him arm back around me
"Just a very old friend" I looked at him closely
***********************
I walked into the house and looked through before Kira waved to me
"What happened to you??" I sat down in front of her
" The killer tried to keep kill me too after I saw walk out of Josh's house" she sipped fgom her coffee
"The day Josh died, one of my dresses had fallen over the fence so I went to get it from the flowers"
" As I got there, I picked up my dress, and I noticed the light went off suddenly and came back on with a man ontop of him with a knife"
" He struggled but he was already injured and so couldn't do much, the killer was injured on his arm too" Uncle James had a same injury that week
" Why didn't run??"
"I was stuck and so frightened"
" And that's why he's saw me" she drank her coffee again
" So I ran away to my parents house in another town after my roommate was injured instead of me"
" Woahhhh" I scratched my head
"Why do you think he's killing them??"
"He kept on mentioning a frat party, that confused me"
" And no one would know more about a frat party except Merissa, we need to see her"
"No we, I'm going back to my parents house today for safety" she stood up
" Now, I'll be taking my leave" she walked to the counter, paid for her coffee and walked out
I hailed down a taxi to Merissa's house
I pressed the door bell button
No one answered
I repeated the same routine
No answer
Maybe I'll come back later
I walked down the street to a restaurant, when was the last time I ate a decent meal without getting frightened unnecessarily
I finished eating and double-tapped my phone...Hmm, it's already 6:45pm
I pressed the door bell again and waited for some minutes
No answer...that's strange, she said she would be back by 6
I walked around the house to the window and saw Merissa breathing heavily on the floor
"Jesus!!" I dialled 911
"Merissa, hang in there" I yelled to her
"911, what's your emergency??" The woman asked
" There's been a murder"
" Where??"
"No. 21, fl...." I cleaned my face with a handkerchief
" Ahhhhhhhh..." The phone fell from my hand, I looked at where the pain was coming from, Blood??, I looked up and saw uncle James pick up my phone, I leaned on the wall, going down slowly
"Sorry, Prank call" he dropped it, he bent to my height and took my hoodie off
"I warned you to stay away, didn't I??"
"Why are you doing this??"
" These kids took something very valuable away from me, I'm just paying them back"
" But you just had to get yourself involved, didn't you??" He tapped my cheek
" Don't worry, I'll take good care of your aunty Jane"
He stood up and walked away throwing the plastic gloves he was wearing in the dumpster.
Shitttttttt, so this is how it feels to be stabbed, God it hurts
"Oh Lord, I commit my spirit into your hands..." I started saying a word of prayer and hoping a guardian angel would come from somewhere
"K.C!!!" I heard a voice above, I opened my eyes, smiled and shut it back.
Is this the end????....
