Police Station**
Mrs Parker wouldn’t stop crying as Melody was brought to her at the waiting room with handcuffs in her hands.
“My daughter..” Mrs Parker stood and immediately hugged Melody.
“I didn’t do it mom, believe me… I didn’t kll Monica!!” Melody shook her head, it was obvious that she cried alot.
“I believe you Melody” Mrs Parker sniffed.
“How’s Angelo doing” Melody asked.
“As expected, He’s grieving… The whole family is in pains” Mrs Parker replied.
“Gosh…” Melody sighed.
She was so scared right now. What if the Watterson think that she is the one that klled Monica? What if Angelo ends up h@ting her?
“I dont wanna loose him” Melody thought.
“Ma’am the visiting hours are over. Please leave” A cop came in.
He raised Melody up and left with her. Melody looked back as she was been taken away. A drop of tear fell from her eyes..

The whole area was no silent as a graveyard with each person sitting in his own corner, having some many thoughts running through their mind..
Stephanie hugged her knees as she sat on the floor, deep in thoughts. Nathan sat next to her, looking at her. He sighed and came closer.
It must really be hard learning that those you consider as family, turned out not to be your family.
Nathan wrapped his hands round her and she placed her head on his chest.
“You need to rest babe, let’s go home..” Nathan said.
Stephanie just looked at him and slowly stood up. She didn’t want to leave but at the same time, she wasn’t having the strength to protest.
Stephanie stood and began leaving with Nathan.
“Steph”
Stephanie turned back. Scarlett stood up from where she was sitting and came to him.
“I know this isn’t the right moment but I just want you to know that no matter what happens, you’ll always remain my twin sis… And I love you so much” Scarlett said.
Stephanie looked at her and pulled her in for a hug. They hugged each other tightly before letting go.
“We’ll see tomorrow sis” Stephanie said.
Scarlett nodded and watched as they both left.. Soon, Raymond came in and met Scarlett sitting alone. The rest already left.
“Honey” Raymond bent to her level and kssed her forehead.
“Take me home” Scarlett said.
Raymond nodded and carried her in his arms before leaving with her.

The Watterson**
Jayce ran his hands in his hair as he stood under the shower. He looked up, allowing the water to wet his face.
He sneaked into his room and removed his clothes which was covered in bIóod then burned it before taking his shower.
He came out of the shower and wore his shorts before he heard a knock on his door.
“Come in”
The door opened and Arnold came in.
“Dad..” Jayce said.
Arnold smiled slightly and sat down on his bed..
“You still call me dad despite knowing the truth” Arnold said.
“Huh?”
“Julia doesn’t believe me but I know that you still have all the memories of what happenes in your childhood. I know you know that I’m not your real father” Arnold said.
“Yes dad… But you and mom were the only ones who took i and Stephanie in and that’s why you’ll always be my father” Jayce said.
“Thanks son. I told the truth to the others today” Arnold patted his back.
“How did they take it?”
“It came as a double shock to them…” Arnold said.
“I knew it. Just rest dad, tomorrow will be a very tough day for everyone” Jayce said.
Arnold nodded and stood up.
“Goodnight son..”
“Goodnight dad, sleep well” Jayce replied.
Arnold nodded and left the room. Jayce fell on his bed and stared at the roof. A smirk slowly appeared on his face.
“Now that everyone know the truth, nothing will stop me from having Scarlett all to myself…” He thought.
He closed his eyes, drifting off to sleep.

Police Station**
“Visiting hours are over sir…” The cop said.
“I know, it’s really urgent. I can pay you if you let me in please…”
The female cop looked at him and slowly nodded..
“I’ll bring her”
“Thank you” He replied.
He sat down with his head down while waiting. Few minutes later, Melody was brought in the room..
Angelo looked up and Melody’s heart skipped a beat. She stood on her spot, not knowing what to do…
Angelo stood up from his seat and went closed to her. He took Melody unaware when he suddenly pulled her closer to him, hugging her tightly.
“Babe…” Melody let out her tears.
“I swear on my life babe, I didn’t kll your sister. I swear, I wouldn’t do that… I-”
“Shh!, I trust you. I know you’re innocent.. Sorry I didn’t come earlier” Angelo said.
“I understand” Melody replied.
Angelo cupped her cheeks and rubbed..
“Just look at how unkempt you are right. I promise as Monica’s burial is over, I’ll come here and do everything possible to prove your innocence” Angelo said.
Melody just looked at him.
“You’re really strong…”
“That’s all what we need to do now. Be strong” Angelo said and kissed Melody’s forehead before hugging her.
“I pray the person who did all these should run as much as he can because the moment I find out… God knows what’s I’ll do to him” Angelo gritted his teeth.
“I think I have a clue” Melody suddenly said
Angelo broke the hug and looked at her.
“Avery. The other time, she stopped me and asked me to break up with you… That something bad will happen if we don’t” Melody said.
Angelo nodded.
“I’ll do so tomorrow” Angelo said.
“I love you” Melody said.
“I love you too” Angelo replied.
“Sorry lover birds but it’s time over. If my superior find out i can be pvnished” The female cop said.
Angelo nodded. He leaned forward and kssed Melody for a short while before releasing her. As promised he paid the cop and took one last look at Melody before leaving.

Next Day, The Watterson**
“Monica….” Julia cried as she laid down on Monica’s bed, hugging the teddy bear he gave Monica.
If she was asked to choose between physical pain and the one she was feeling right now, she’ll prefer physical pain way more.
Loosing your own child in such an unfortunate way is so…so painful.
She fully dressed in white, ready for the ceremony which will start in few minutes from now
Arnold who was watching her from the door came in and walked to her. He pulled Julia in for a hug..
“We need to go love” Arnold said.
Julia hugged him back, crying loudly. Angelo who was passing by stopped. He walked to them and hugged the both of them..
“Mom calm down, stop crying… I’m sure Monica wouldn’t want to see you cry coz of her. Let’s be strong for her” Angelo said.
Julia nodded and sniffed in, trying to calm down…
“Where’s Stephanie? You told them about the secret yesterday right?” Julia asked in cracked voice.
Arnold nodded. Julia looked at Angelo.
“Son we’re sorry for keeping this much secret to you. We just didn’t want you guys to-”
“It’s okay mom.. You did it while thinking of the well being of the family. Even if you told us since the begin. Jayce and Stephanie will ways remain my big brother and sister” Angelo said.
Julia rubbed his cheek.
“Let’s get going now mom..” Angelo said
Julia nodded and stood up. They all left the room..
