London

It was exactly 5pm in the evening, students were returning home from school, a particular 15 years old walked home alone, kicking stones as she walked towards the gate that led to her home, a beautiful cottage.

"Willa, Mom?! I'm back" she yelled as she dropped her bag on the sofa, in the next second a dog came running, barking loudly and wagging it's tail, it jumped on her and she fell on the floor, the dog started licking her face, "ah...stop it...Bojie...stop" she said laughing out her ass and wiping her face, as she got up after pushing the dog over.

"He loves you so much" she heard a voice say, her eyes dart to the kitchen door, "mom" she greeted, "how was school Missy?" Angela her mom asked, with a smile, "school's alright I guess" she said seating down frowning, walking towards her daughter, Angela frowned as she Pat Missy's shoulder, "what's wrong honey? tell Mom" she says smiling.

"nothing to worry about, I just had one of my attacks, it was terrible" she says as she smiles watching Bojie rub his body on her leg, she scratches his head with a smile, "you have your pump with you, why didn't you use it?" her mom asked worriedly, she rubs Missy's blonde hair with a sad smile.

"I did Mom, I really did, but it didn't subdue it, until I was on the verge of fainting" she complained, "I'll talk to your dad when he returns tomorrow" Angela says and heads back into the kitchen, "mom?" Missy yells, "yes honey?" her mom replies from the kitchen, "where's Willa?" Missy asks, "she went to get some groceries, used up all the ones left, don't worry she'll get KFC on the way back" her mom says, "okay.... thanks... come on boy, let's go play" Missy says receiving an affirmative response from Bojie who jumped, barked, wagged his tail in all possible direction, he was a German Shepherd, a very big one at that.

"No playing until you've...." Rolling her eyes, Missy yells, "until, I take my bath, spin my clothes, eat and do my home work....yeah yeah....the same old thing" Missy says, heading to her room, Bojie follows behind, she turns and pats his head, "Bojie I'll be right back to play with you" she said patting his head, then she turns and closes the door, leaving the dog staring sadly, he waited a while and when he saw she wasn't coming out, he turned and walked to the living room.

It was exactly 9pm, in the night in Pennsylvania. One of the biggest event was being hosted there, "Award Winnings" civilians had their eyes glued on their TV screens, everyone was watching in anticipation, waiting for the event to commence.

In Starball hall, where the event was being hosted a lot of people occupied the seats, men and women dressed, in suits, evening gowns, beautiful clothes, the hall was beautifully decorated, the caterers for the event, stood at a corner, waiters and waitresses were serving drinks. The hall was buzzing with discussions, as everyone guessed the winners of the different awards.

"Attention everyone, the award ceremony is about to begin" the announcer said, a middle aged woman in a red knee length gown, bulb hair cut, with a pair of Harry Potter glasses, nude make-up and a flat red shoe, said. Beside her was an old man, in sky blue suit, with black shoes, he was bald and had a mole on his nose.

"mom! Willa!! come on over, the awards about to begin" Missy yelled, 'really?" her mom asked walking out of the kitchen, wiping her hands, "yes...yes" Missy replied. Willa switched off her laptop as she picked up her phone and head to the living room, after locking her door. She sat beside Missy, who sits in between her and their mother, with Bojie on the floor.

"I just hope dad wins the award" Missy said as a list of awards winners receive their trophy and are being cheered, "I hope so, it would be a big leap in his career, if he manages to win the award for best detective of the year" Missy said excitedly.

"There's no joy if he hasn't accomplished what he wanted to for 18 years" Willa thought and sighed.

"it's now time to award the best CBI detective of the year" the woman announced.

Ken Wilson, Cory George, Bella Daniels, Bianca Benson and Aaron Yates, all got up, they had been nominated.

Bojie began to bark when he saw his owner, Ken Wilson got up, rubbing his head, Missy bit her lips, "yes Bojie that's dad, he's been nominated" Missy says, the 5 nominated people looked around as they were being cheered, the lights dimmed, as intense music was being played in the background, everyone murmured amongst themselves in anticipation for who would win the award.

"and the award for the best CBI detective of the year goes tooooo.... Ken Wilson" the woman announced. Everyone got up as the hall breaks in loud cheers, the spotlight fell on Ken Wilson, who was beyond thrilled, he bowed twice, "come up for your award Ken Wilson" the woman announced.

The cottage was very noisy as Missy screamed, along side Bojie who kept barking loudly, as they jumped on the chair. Bojie was so excited like he was a human, he barked loudly, wagging his tail, he didn't know what was going on, but seeing Missy happy, couldn't make him more happier.

"Missy don't jump too much, or you'll lose your composure" Willa announced.

"No way...dad got the...

The gun sound seemed real coming from the TV, the three ladies looked at the television consecutively and in the next moment, there was a loud scream, Missy was having one of her serious attacks, Willa was trying to give her air, with her pump, while their mom stared at the TV unmoving, Bojie rushed to wake their mom out of her trance, he kept nudging her until she looked at hom.

"mom... Missy...we are losing her" Willa screamed until her mother rushed towards them and carried Missy, trying to give her air, "she's not responding, call the ambulance!" her mother yelled, Willa was already dialing the ambulance.

The hall was in frenzy as everyone ran in different directions, there were already new News headlines, the chairs were scattered around, there were cries and screams.

"Just few moments ago, there was a gun shot, Ken Wilson had been shot directly in his heart, the lights in the hall, were turned off, for only a brief moment and he was lying on his own pool of blood, this might be the work of an assassin, but who?" the journalists ended her speech with the question who.

Jen and Julio got into the car, and Julio marched the accelerator, Jen was in a bad mood, as she wiped her tears off her face, "it's okay honey" Julio said, "it's not okay, it's so not okay, when I saw the man, I wanted to turn back, look at how his son has grown so much, without him, without a father figure, with his father alive, hail and hearty, his dad became a detective only to find his son and now... I killed him...if ever skull finds out, he'll kill us and take it out on Cassidy, it's... it's... I'm just tired" Jen cried out, Julio quietly drove, he was also scared, they had first taken the son and now they had killed the father, if ever skull found out, they were goners.
