Dark Light

Truth revealed

It was the day of the 3rd of January ,

The day was quite normal in the house of the Johnson household . At that time offIcer Laxus arrives . Everyone is silent then sitting down side by the side grandpa and grandma , her father and Sophia was present .

'' The reason i have arrived here today is to tell about the murder of your wife and the forensics repot have arrived ''' the cop exclaims . '' Please tell what you found about her '' her father pleads . ''' I am feeling a little bit awkward but i must tell you the truth as it's duty '' he asserts .

'''' Officer please tell us '' says her grandma . ''' yes no need to feel awkward cause we want to know everything about how she had died '' retorts her grandpa . ''' Well alright please listen carefully ''' officer says .

''' Mrs.Maria's time of death was at was at around 11 - 11:45 pm at night means it's after you all had left for the party venue . Mr.George was also at home at that time in this house along with Maria . And one of our men had seen him leaving in his car yesterday night all alone in a hurry ''' .

''' He's still a suspect but that's not the matter here you all have alibi that you were at the party but he doesn't and he's still mising and we haven't found him yet . Let's come to the main topic that is how hee had died , according to the report she seems to have been strangled with rope but that's not the case here she was strangled to death before she had been dead '' .

'' And why do think that ? ''' asks Sophia's father. '' I think that because she was poisoned to death and by her side we found also a secret treasure which belongs to your family '' cop stated . Hearing this grandpa and her father along with her grandma everyone's face became pale .

''She was also poisoned to death just like your son Samuel and we have found some fingerprints they maybe of George or the killer and also in heer body we found something it must be from physical activities with a man and that could be your brother mr.Johnson . We will try our best to track down your brother fast and any of you gets in contact with him please contact me ''' officer says .

'' For precautions we will take the fingerprints of all of the family members i will put some heavy security in front of your house to protect you. None of you can leave this city till we find the killer this horrible murder case should be stopped as soon as possible ;''''' .

''' My team will come in the evening to take the fingerprints of all the people in your house i will leave for the day ''' he gets up . '''What about the secret treasure ?'' asks Sophia's dad . ''' We will keep it under guard and see whether we can get some finger prints from it .After investigation we will return it you ''' says the cop .

'' Thank you very much for coming ''' says her grandpa . '' Assist us however you can ''' says the cop and leaves. Everyone was silent untill Sophia's granny spoke up . ''' I never thought that she would do something like this , taking advantage of the situation while we were away and doing things with her own brother-in-law shame on her ''' .

'' Dear , we shouldn't say bad things about the dead it's bad karma . What's done is donee no point in talking about it '' retorts her grandpa . ''So that was the reason she was behaving rudely with us most of the time and here i thought that she was worried about her son and feeling bad about his death i never thought she would do something like this with my brother . How long was their affair for ? ''' snarls her father .

''Only George can answer that ''' granny remarks . ''' Police isn't able to keep track of him '' remarks grandpa . ''' Would please stop discussing things about your wife in front of your daughter what would she feel ? '' granny remarks .

''Let her feel whatever she wants she should also learn what her mother is like she also hates her just as i do cause even since she had married here she had ill treated Sophia and had always treated her badly in terms of her behaviour with her son Samuel . I still ignored that and what about her treatment with her own son after he had died she had been doing those with George .Shame on her she can't be anyones '' .

'' Not a good mother not a good wife , she's just a hoe an w***e nothing more nothing else if George comes home i won't allow him to stay here too '' states her dad. '' Is that clear to all of you ? '' . Grandpa leaves along with her dad .

In the living room there was only Sophia and her grandma all silent . '' You heard all about it right about your mom and what she has been doing with your uncle . Don't you have anything to say? ''' grandma asks . '' No , i have nothing to say about her she's as good as dead to me now ''' Sophia says and leaves .

''' I can understand what you are feling right now , even though he had always treated you bad you never said anything against her cause you had respected her but now you have lost all respect for her now so it also causes pain for you now , poor child why did you had to do this to her Maria ? i am glad you have died '' her grandma thoughts .

''' Murder by poison i wonder who dares to do this to her and her son , who is the killer that is doing all of this ? what does it want from this family ? who are you invisible man ? lurking behind the shadows ?''' .

It was in the afternoon now , the temperature was kind of warm enough not to feel the chills of january . The whole house was as if reeking of bloody smell and stench of blood was not getting away from the house after all two deaths have already happened in this house what can we expect .

Sophia had cooked for her family but no one was feeling like eating .She somehow ate something but while eating she could remember the face of her brother and mom all dead as if they are all alive . It made her feel like vomitting so she couldn't eat the whole meal .

Meanwhile calls Edward . After ringing for three times she picks it up finally . ''' Sophia , how are you doing ? '' he asks . ''' I am doing managing along somehow ''' she replies '' what about you ? '' . ''' I am doing fine too . Did something happen ? why does your voice sounds like this ? ''' .

'' It's just ''' she couldn't say anything from that point onwards . ''' Is it something you can't say over the phone ? then i can come over to meet if you want '' he says . '' Well there is some cop waiting outside our house what should i do then ? he will ask about where am i going then what should i say ? ''' she asks .

''Then tell him a lie that you are going to market to buy groceries ''' he replies . ''That's something i can say thanks ''' she replies . ''Then let's meet at the water fountain i will be waiting for you '' he says and ends the call . ''' Should i really tell him really ? no point in thinking about it any longer i should get ready ''' she thoughts to herself .

Then she gets ready to leave it was when shee got down the stairs she saw her grandma siting on the sofa all in solitude . She comes to her and asks . ''' What happened grandma ? '' . ''' Ah it's nothing dear . ... i was just thinking about how our family is lately becoming strange day by day all death and murder it's not my family anymore '' she replies .

'' Don't be sad we all are trying to cheer ourselves up so that we won't break down so be strong '' Sophia consoles her . ''' You seem all dressed up are you going somewhere ? '' asks her granny . ''' I am going to buy some groceries i need to make dinner at night '' Sophia replies .

'' I see alright then get back home quick it;s not so safee outside '' remarks her granny . '' ALright i come back early '' she says '' take care granny '' . ''' You too dear '' .

She leaves the house , when she gets out of the house gate she noticed one policeman waiting by the side of the road and one on the lane . None of them came upto her so she peacefully went on her own way to the water fountain in the middle of the city .

Walking in the afternoon sunlight she walked and walked , the sun rays were shimmering her basking in the sunshine she was waiting for her lover who had promised to meet her there . '' Why isn't he here yet ? '' she mutters to herself . After waiting for ten minutes showing no signs of arrival she calls him .

Meanwhile she could hear the sound of the phone ringing behind her . When she looked behind she could see the sight of the boy who was waiting for her . '' I had been waiting for a while why didn't you told me that you have already arrived ? '' she fumes .

'' Calm down , i was just observing your reaction when you couldn't find me '' he comments '' were you missing me ?'' . '' No not at all '' she grunts . '' Is that so ? then i guess you don't love me after all '' he remarks .

'' No , i love you , much more than me that's sure '' she retorts . '' Now that's like my girl '' he comments '' i just love teasing you '' . '' I will get angry if you tease me like this all the time i thought that you didn't came '' she mutters .

''If i had promised you that i will comee then i will definitely come am not that kind of a guy who would break his promise '' he remarks '' you believe in me right ? '' . ''' Of course much more better than i do myself '' she replies .

''Classes will start from tomorrow what will you do ? '' he asks . '' Class .. i had totally forgotten about it all after all of these things happening in my house how can i concentrate on class ? '' she retorts . '' Why what happened ? '' he asks .

'The thing is .........'' then she tells him about everything that has happened upto now about her mom and her affair with uncle everything .Edward listen to her words carefully . Then he spoke up . '' You shouldn't let this affect yourself what she did was obviously bad and you don't need to feel self conscious about telling me all of this cause i am your boyfriend and you should tell me everything ''' he says holding her hand .

''I thought that you would hate me after hearing all of these so i didn't wanted to tell you this '' she says . '' Silly girl , why would i hate you ? i love you more than everything now you are my own world after all ''' he says touching her face .

''' Thank you '' she hugs onto him . '' No need to , don't you have to get back home the cop will be home anytime ? '' he aks . '' Ah i forgot thanks for reminding me '' she says .''' Hey , why do you think the killer is doing all of this ? what is his motive behind all of this ? '' .

''I don't know maybe he wants to take revenge against your family or something '' he asserts . '' But why ? what did my family did to the killer that the killer is doing all of this ? '' she asks . '' I don't know better ask your family about this '' he replies .

'' I will walk you back home it's dark now '' he says holding her hand . ''' Alright then '' she walks along with him .

'' Hey , do you like being with me ? ''' he asks . '' Yes a lot how about you ? '' she asks . '' I also whenever i am with you i forget about all the bad things in the world and am at peace '' he replies .

''Only you make me feel like this '' . ''' You sound so romantic what happened with you ? '' she teases him . Right at the moment someone calls her .
