I just did what I had to do

Only time could tell ...
Chapter 7

Why does everybody act like I’m a cold-blooded bitch that you can’t trust around children. I could feel my blood boil in my veins, I was so angry and disappointed. These are the people that are supposed to know me to trust me. And they all just walked over me and acted like I’m the stupid loser.

Suddenly I felt something pulling at my hair, it was Ryan, he was curling a stray of my hair around his little finger. Cath and Janice appeared around the corner and through the windows I could see them walk towards the break room. Cath opened the door and let Janice in, Janice walked straight up to me and took Ryan over from me.

“Thank you.” She said.

“There is no need to thank me, I just did what I have to do.” I smiled at her, and she weakly smiled back, a small smile between her tears.

“How am I ever going to tell him what happened tonight, how can I ever explain it to him?” Janice broke down again. And Cath brought her back to the sofa.

“Janice why are you so sad?” Ryan asked her while he hugged her.

“It’s the best when your honest to him, maybe he’ll act mad or maybe he won’t understand, but at least he knows the truth. Because when you start lying, it’ll be much harder to stick to the story and then when you finally tell him the truth then he won’t believe a thing that you ever said to him believe me. Kids react like that especially on a drama like this.” Cath answered to Janice.

A man stepped into the break room, Janice looked up to him.

“Marc, they are dead, someone killed mum, Mikayla and John.” He sank down in front of her on his knees and hugged Janice and Ryan.

I looked at Cath and she nodded at the door. We both stepped out of the break room.

“Cath, your right I owe you, can we change the bite into a breakfast when we’re finished?”

“You got that right, girl, you owe me cause I’m starving. So breakfast it is.” She grinned at me. I was glad that she was there to put my mind on other thoughts. What if I really had to handle this case on my own. Cath was staring through the window on the other site of the corridor. And I watched her, secretly. Suddenly she moved her face towards me and I turned my eyes down.

Cath smiled and moved closer to the door. She opened it and held it open for me. I stepped back inside and Marc, Janice’s fiancé stood up.

“Thank you for taking care of Ryan, we are so grateful. We’ve decided to take Ryan under our care. Can we please go home now. Janice and Ryan are existed.” Marc pleaded.

“You can go home, but we need to see the three of you back here tomorrow, for questioning. Just the regular stuff. We need to set up a time frame and those kind of things. But don’t worry, I’ve heard that the two of you have a perfect alibi so don’t worry to much about the questioning.” Cath told Marc.

“Yep, this should have been the perfect night, but it turned out into a nightmare.” He sighed.

He help Janice to stand up and walked.

“Hello, perfect alibi, where did he come from?” I asked Cath.

At that exact moment Brass came back. “He identified the bodies, he didn’t want his girlfriend to do that.”

We both picked up our own kit and brought the evidence that we’d collected to the trace labs. Greg was happy that he saw us. Nick and Warrick still hadn’t returned from their crime scenes and he was bored. We entered the lab while he was jumping around and playing an airguitar. Rocking around the office.
