Chapter 31 - 3.1

The whistling wind and heavy rain crashed against the window. Deep inside in a dimly lit room a shadow flitted by unknown to the young maiden who was absorbed in her book. The sliding window that should have been securely locked creaked open, the rain fell in creating a puddle the maiden snapped out of her focus and her eyes turned to the now open window. With a frown she stood up to close the sliding window. She closed the curtains and turned to her seat picking up her book she began to read again. Behind her stood a dark shadow.

"Mom please you are worrying too much I have arrived safely now...Yes yes I have taken my medicine too don't worry okay...I know I will look after her yes yes I will be careful jeez mom stop worrying so much it's just one day I will be back tomorrow." A young woman in a purple dress with cropped hair smiled helplessly as she got out of her car and walked towards a gorgeous villa.

She knocked on the door and rang the bell, "Why is no one opening the door?" She muttered. "Oh yes they went out yesterday for a business trip silly me...But Nikki should be home right?" She rang the bell again getting impatient her eyes moved about anxiously and she spotted a shiny object under the door mat.

"A key?" She muttered as she bent down to pick it up. She rang the bell again, As expected no one opened the door. She sighed and opened the door with the key. she walked in and started looking for Nikki.

"Nikki!" She frowned and went upstairs, "Nikki?" No one answered her. she went to the back of the house feeling worried. "Where has that girl gone to... elder brother said she was at home....Oh My God Nikki!!"

Nikki was lying by the pool covered in blood.

"My lord have mercy. the poor girl what did she do to deserve this"

She swallowed nervously " Y-Yes I was the first to see her like this"

"What is your relationship with her?" The investigator question.

"I am her aunt" She pinched her fingers.

"And your name?"

"Amanda...Amanda Nicole"

"Where are her parents?"

"They left yesterday for a business trip they will be back in three days"

"Did she have any sort of enmity with someone or had she fought with someone i mean if you know of anything like this?"

"....No....I don't think so she was a very nice girl I don't think she would have any enemies..."

"Thank you for answering" The investigator looked at the old woman and a young man next to her. " And they are?"

"She is my mother" Amanda answered, "And he is my little brother Leonard Nicole"

"I see" The investigator walked back to the others who were inspecting the body and the surroundings.

"Sir there are bloody footprints, They belong to a child right next to the body."
