    Chapter IX

    ~ DNA ~

    Nobody said anything for the last 15 minutes. I was dead worried about that DNA

    test. They will surely as me a lot of !uestions about the pro"enien#e of the blood

    that #o"ered my fa#e. $%ow #ould I e&plain to them what happened' will they

    belie"e me( I bet the dete#ti"e won)t. %e had that aura of a "ery septi#al man that

    doesn)t belie"e in anyone or anything. *h well+ I)m s#rewed.,

     The "an stopped and I waited for the poli#e o-#er to open the door.

    * /iss+ #ome with me please0+ he was "ery ind and I felt that he would stand up

    for my inno#en#e and he would trust me that I)m telling the truth.

    %e led me into the building and on a "ery tight dar and #old #orridor. %e stopped in

    front of a wre#ed wooden white door opening it.

    After you /iss oberts0+ he made a gesture with his hand pointing to the entran#e.

    Than you.0

    %a"e a sit please0+ he pointed to the rusty iron #hair standing in the middle of the

    room and #losed the door behind us.

    %e lighted up a #igarette and o2ered one to me too. I wanted to refuse it but I

    #ouldn)t. All tough I !uit smoing a year ago+ being #on"in#ed by Andrew+ I now

    wanted so badly at least a smoe.

    3es+ than you so mu#h. I really needed one0+ I 4nished the senten#e smiling.

    3ou are in big trouble /iss+ so you better start telling me what happened0+ he

    smiled ba#' it wasn)t a sar#asti# or fae smile but a truly sin#ere one+ maybe a bit

    too sympatheti# one.

    "en if I tell you what happened+ you won)t belie"e me0+ I stated being 1667 sure

    of that.

    Try me0+ he threw the #igarette on the 8oor and stepped on it.

    9no# 9no#:

    use me to interrupt /r. Airton+ but I)m here to tae the blood samples for the

    DNA test0+ an old man was standing on the doorpost dressed in white and I

    assumed he was a do#tor.

    *f #ourse+ of #ourse'0+ the poli#e o-#er in"ited him in.

     The do#tor opened his brief#ase and prepared his instruments.

    gathered a tiny pie#e of dry blood putting it in an empty re#ipient.

    was so #lose behind me.

    %e looed down at me and ba#ed up a pa#e so the situation won)t be#ome

    un#omfortable.

    I)m sorry0+ I put my hands up in the surrender sing ;ust to assure him that I didn)t

    mean to bump into him+ I was wondering if you now how #an I get ba# to the

    "illage and re#o"er my #ar. Is there any buss that goes until there(0

     I was about to as you if you need a lift up there to re#o"er your #ar0+ he smiled

    showing me his #ar eys.

    @e arri"ed at the "an and he opened me the door. %ow ind of him to do that. I got

    up in the "an and made myself #omfortable.

    >o /iss oberts+ !uite a weeend you had0+ he said not taing his eyes o2 of the

    road.

    Bee' *nly if you new0+ I said forgetting who was I taling with.

    o+ why don)t you start with your disappearan#e0+ his suggestion put my brain to

    wor and s#ared me a little.

    Fhm+ I got lost0+ the senten#e sounded more of a !uestion than a statement and

    that made him laugh.

    I don)t now' are you asing me0+ he answered still laughing.

    I was getting ner"ous.

    *0+ he #ontinued not wanting to let go of the sub;e#t+ let)s assume you got lost

    all though you #ome here at least on#e a year sin#e you were little' then what(0+

    his "oi#e was not bossy and that #omfort me a little.

    ThenG then0+ I was babbling not being sure of what to sayH the truth or some lie+

    then it got too dar and too #old and I found that #age' and I ate a rabbit' and

    felt at sleep' + I stopped to tae a breath and #ontinued as fast as I began the

    phrase+ if you #an #all it a phrase those babbled words I was saying+ 'then I woe

    up' left the #age' you found me' and the rest you now it too0+ I 4nished with

    that marathon taling taing a big breath.

    %e burst into laughter and to my surprise he didn)t say anything. /inutes past and

    not a word from him' I new he didn)t belie"e me be#ause of the way he rea#ted

    to my e&planation. I #ould see my #ar at the end of the road and I breathed in

    relief' I wondered if my parents new anything about my disappearan#e or the

    poli#e #ase I)m in"ol"ed in #onsidering the fa#t that I wasn)t gone for too long and I

    told them when I left not to bother #alling me be#ause I will #lose my #ell phone.

    %ere we are /iss. Tae good #are of yourself and eep pra#ti#ing on telling what

    happened with you while you were gone+ be#ause you didn)t #on"in#e me at all

    with that babbling' Now+ I)m not saying that you were telling lies either but youneed to phrase those e"ents properly in order to be belie"ed by the poli#e o-#ers0+

    he wined at me and smiled so sin#ere. %is "oi#e was "ery warm and that ad"i#e

    that he ga"e me was more than wel#omed #onsidering the fa#t he was a poli#e

    o-#er too.

    *h+ oay: Than you for e"erything /ister'0

    Airton0+ he #ontinued without letting me mae a fool of myself for forgetting his

    name.

    3es+ I new that'0+ I smiled and he giggled at my #o#y reply.

    ye /iss0+ he started the engine and maneu"ered the "an so he #ould lea"e.

    I remained there for a little longer+ looing after him and thining that I would ne"er

    see this man again. $Too bad,+ I thought to myself but then re#onsidered my thought

    not wanting to ha"e anything left to do with poli#e o-#ers.

    I wanted so badly to go home immediately but I needed to tae a bath 4rst+ gather

    my bags and pay for the house so I headed to the entran#e door. Inside+ on the 8oor

    was a note on whi#h was writtenH Jea"e the money on the it#hen table and

    $%m+ that didn)t sound "ery polite...but I understand' he must ha"e heard about

    the murder and my disappearan#e', I too the money from my bag and I left them

    among the house eys on the it#hen table as being told and went upstairs to tae

    a !ui# shower.

    the dried blood was pouring down my fa#e now and I instin#ti"ely opened my mouth

    to taste on#e again its sweetness. It was lie a drug'so addi#ti"e' I #ould feel my

    body #ra"ing for more but I sternly denied that feeling and #ontinued by thining at

    my parents and how I miss home.

    I 4nished the shower and started pa#ing my bags. I too one more loo around thehouse to mae sure that I didn)t forget anything and left. /y home si#
