Chapter Four
Rosa opened the front door of her house and walked upstairs to her room. She sat down on her bed and let the tears that wanted to fall earlier finally fall.
She heard a knock at her bed. She didn’t say anything. She didn’t want to talk to anyone. There was one more knock, and then her mom entered.
“Hey, sweetie. What’s wrong,” Elle asked as she sat down next to her crying daughter.
“You know that girl I met at the hospital?” Rosa asked her mom though her tears. Elle nodded. “Well, she’s the girl that die last night. And I just went to her house to tell her dad, and I found out that he die too. And I know who killed Faith…..and her dad. But I don’t know what to do,” she cried.
“You have to tell the cops,” Elle said.
“What if they don’t believe me,” Rosa said.
“I think they will,” Elle said, giving Rosa a hug. “You can at least try.”
“Yeah,” Rosa said. “Mom, I just want to be alone right now.”
“O.K,” Ella said, getting the hint. “I’ll leave. But if you need anything, I’ll be just downstairs.” Elle kiss Rosa head, got up and left Rosa’ room.
Rosa laid on her bed and closed her eyes. She could see the guy’s face smiling at her, but this time Rosa didn’t open her eyes. She looked at the guy with hatred in her eyes.
“I’m going to bring you down,” she said.
“I like to see you try. I have killed so many people, and no one has catch me,” the guy smiled.
“Well, I’ll be the first,” Rosa said. “Just wait and watch. I’ll kill you. I’ll make sure you wouldn’t hurt any one or thing again. Just you wait.”
The guy’s smile disappeared. But a few seconds later it come back. “Well, I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.”
“Yes, we will,” Rosa said, before opening her eyes.
Rosa got up from her bed. She opened her bedroom door and went downstairs. She went into the living room where her mom was. “Mom, I need to talk to you.”
Elle looked up from the book she was reading. “Yes?”
Rosa sat down beside her mom. “Well, you remember two years ago….when dad….?”
Elle nodded. “Yes, I do.”
“Well, I know who killed dad. It’s the same person who killed Faith and her father.”
Elle jumped up. “Rosa how would you know that. You don’t know who killed your father. You didn’t see the kill-“
“But I did see the killer. I did.”
“And only now you’re coming out with this?”
“I was sacred. But I know that if I don’t stop him, he’s going to hurt more people.”
Elle sat back down beside Rosa. “So, what do we do?”
“I don’t know yet.”
Rosa looked out the window near the T.V. At least she couldn’t see the forest from this window. “Mom, what would you do?”
“I think I must go to the police and tell them,” Elle said, looking at Rosa. “In fact we can go right now.”
Rosa snapped her head towards her mom. “NO, we can’t. I only told you so you could help me. I have to do this on my own……..hey, that’s a Hedley song.”
“What is,” Elle asked.
“On My Own,” Rosa answered, getting up. “And that’s what I’m going to do. Put this guy down on my own.” She walked out of the living room and went upstairs to her room.
She looked out the window. She tried to put her self in Faith’s place. It were have had to be night cause if it was day, someone were have helped her. So, nighttime. Rosa pictured it was nighttime outside. Which run would she be running…..how long had she been running? There was so much to figure out, but Rosa wasn’t going to get up just yet.
She went over to her dresser and pick up the picture of her and Faith and studied it. There was nothing out of place. And as far as Rosa could tell it was only her and Faith in the picture, no one else.
Maybe she could find a clue somewhere else.
Rosa sat on her bed, and closed her eyes.
Bright light peek though the window of Rosa’s room. She opened her eyes. She looked over at her clock. 9:32. ‘Well, if the sun’s up, it has to be morning,’ Rosa thought as she climbed out of bed.
She walked over to her window and looked out. Her sisters were outside, playing.
‘Why are they up so early,’ Rosa wondered.
Suddenly everything went black. Rosa gasped. Stumbling around her room she was able to find a flashlight on her dresser. She clicked it on and looked back outside. There outside were her sisters, lying on the ground, with blood around them.
She heard footsteps coming back the stairs and she turn around, terrified. She was the door open, and…..
