A changed man
She stared at the man that they supposedly had buried not so long ago. But there was no denying that the man six feet under the ground was not her brother because he was standing right in front of her at this very moment.
She guessed her suspicion was correct. The man that died was a decoy and used to cover up a big lie. But why? Why would her brother pretend to be dead? But then again, she could think of several possible reasons.
"Aren't you going to welcome me back?" She heard her brother say as he walked further inside the room until he stopped just before them. He seemed to joke about it, but his eyes told her something different.
She stared at him, examining his injury. She only saw the sling on his shoulders, indicating that someone must have shot him. But other than that, he seemed fine. There was no indication that he had any burns on his body.
