Moment of Truth

Finally! My exams this month are over and I am completely free for a month. Regular updates from today. And 2 chaps/day updates from July.

******

Morning.

Xavier and Eulene were sitting quietly on the sofa set. Neither had they entered the room, nor did they take a single ounce of sleep.

All they did was sit quietly and observe outside into the distance through the windows. Suddenly, Eulene took in a deep breath.

And a moment later, the bell rang.

Sensing Aunt Maisel's movements, Eulene decided to stay silent in her place. The moment of truth has come.

The matron opened the door.

Outside, stood a man in his forties- garbed in black. He was wearing a pair of round spectacles with a looped string hanging from one side. It was the Superintendent of Derbury Detectivete- Solomon Franklin.

The moment he saw Miss Maisel, his old friend's wife, the superintendent took off his cap and looked down, avoiding her eyes. Melancholy was written all over his face.
