THE DREAM
CHAPTER 15
It felt like I was being dragged into a sinkhole of grief and depression and I would never be able to climb out of it. Sarah died right in front of my eyes and I could do nothing.
“Why Sarah!!!! Why!!! You could have just shot me instead. It would have been over. Who are you!!! and why kill her!!!!” I started yelling out of the window like madmen. All my neighbours gathered there in an instant. Jack stayed in the same neighbourhood too. He came running.
“What the hell happened Richie….?? Why are you yelling??”
“It’s uhmm….. It’s Sa…. It’s Sarah…..”
“Wait for a second dude, I’ll come there.”
He came to my house. He was horrified at the sight of Sarah, lying cold in her own blood, with a bullet in her head.
“Jesus!!! What happened here!! Who shot Sarah and why even? Richie are you okay?”
“No Jack, I am certainly not. You wanna know why she was shot!! I’ll tell you why!”
I Narrated all the events until that point to him. All about how Sarah was a traitor and how she was the mastermind behind all the mishaps.
“Or at least I thought so before she was shot dead. I loved her so much man…..”
I was still sobbing. The tears just didn’t stop.
“I don’t know what to say man…. I am completely shocked by all this. I really can’t believe Sarah could do something like that. I am stunned. But I can say, one thing brother, life has to go on. Now you have one more reason to find that bastard who is pulling strings to all these. You just can’t leave this now.”
“Yeah man…. I am fucking gonna find that bastard now, no matter the cost. He is going to pay dearly for all this.”
“For now let’s just call 911. We’ve got to report this. After that, we can head down to my house, man. I don’t want you to be alone tonight. I am sure Lyla will be happy to have you over too. It’s gonna be alright man. I am there for you bro. Always.”
“Thanks a lot Jack!. I don’t know what I would do without you man.”
“Hey dude, don’t you dare mention this. This is what friends are for.”
I rested the night at Jack’s place. Completely replenished for anything beyond that point. I was not going to let the culprit get further away from me. He has to pay for everything.
I called Jessica first thing in the morning. I told her everything that happened at night.
I told her about Sarah.
“I am sorry Richie it turned out like this, I really didn’t expect...
