Hi! My name is Victoria but you can call me Vicky for short. I'm a high school student who has bright black eyes, long straight black hair and enjoys reading! I have a happy family which includes me, my mum,dad and 2 annoying brothers. I also have a cat. I love my cat more than anything else. Her name is Callie. She's always there waiting for a hug or so. But all that is gone, Callie, my happy family, my hobby, gone. It all started like this..... "Hey Kyle!" I greeted as I stepped into the classroom. "You're early today!" Kyle is a guy in my class. He's a real friend. He's funny. And smart. You'll always see him with a book if you know him. But I was quite surprised when I saw that he was earlier than me today. He's normally very late. "Oh, hi Vicky." He answered. I sat on his desk and asked him what was his plans for today. He's always got something in mind. "Let's see.... Ermm..... I don't know." He answered. "Any secrets?" I asked. He always got secrets but sometimes, its just lies. He nodded his head. "Tell me then! What are you waiting for?" I said like I was the princess or something. I like bossing him around. He's quite weak. "Err...... I don't think I should tell you though." He said. I frowned. "Fine!" And I smiled."Promise you won't tell anyone this." He added. "This isn't the first time you tell me a secret you know." I answered. "Okay, okay...." He took a few deep breaths and finally said:"I have an assassin." I raised an eyebrow. And started laughing. "C'mon Kyle! Stop with the jokes!" I laughed until I fell off his desk. "It's true! I do have one!" He said. "Prove it." I answered forcing myself not to laugh. "Kill my cat today if it's true then!" I said it very sure he was lying. "Okay!" He said. "And by the way...." I added. "If it's fake, You owe me 50 dollars. If it's real, I owe you 50 dollars! Deal?" "Deal!" He answered shaking my hand. I was sure that he was telling a lie. "Get ready to lose Kyle!" I said as I walked to my seat because the bell rang. After school, I walked home. Down the street, turn left, watch out for strangers, the same old road. When I opened the door, Callie, as usual, came running to me, purring around my feet. It felt so good. I hugged her and kissed her a few times. She followed me to my room and I started doing my homework, she was sleeping under my feet as usual. When it was dinner time, mum called me. I went out leaving Callie behind. But when I was back..... Callie was lying there, sleeping, that's what I thought. But when I went closer, she didn't move, didn't even get up to purr around my feet. I lifted her up, and I saw blood stains. I could not believe it! I closed my eyes, trembling, hoping this was a dream. But when I opened them, the dead body and the blood stains were still there. What else could I do? I screamed. Tears trickled down my cheek. My family came rushing in, and without asking what happened, they knew what happened. Even my 2 annoying brothers couldn't believe it. They froze there. My mum covered her face with her hands while my dad came to check out the dead body. "Somebody stabbed her to death." My dad said shaking his head. "Somebody must have came in and killed her." My dad looked around the room. The windows were closed, we did not know who or what came in without coming through the window. And then, a thought flashed by. I remembered Kyle saying that he had an assassin, saying that he wasn't lying. It was true after all. "No!" I screamed. "Vicky, what is done is done. We'll try to find out-" Before my dad could finished I said:"I know who killed her..... Kyle! His assassin! I thought he was lying, but it was true!" My family must have thought I was insane. "Vicky....." My mum tried to comfort me but I pushed her away. I went out of my room and said:"I'm looking for Kyle." And I went out. I rang his doorbell. He opened the door. "Why did you kill her, Kyle?" I asked him. He leaned against his door, "Huh? You wanted proof....." He answered. "Then you should have done something else!" I shouted. "Kyle? Who is that? Dinner's ready already!" I could hear Kyle's mum calling him for dinner. "Look, I have to go eat now okay? See you tomorrow. Bye!" And he closed the door. It started raining, I cursed him as I walked home soaking wet. "I regret it." I said to myself and ran home. After that day, I never smiled again. I never even talked to Kyle. My family bought a new dog which I hated so much and I spent my day in my room facing the blood stains. Never wanting to wipe it off. [End]
