WHEN THE PALETTE TURNS RED
CHAPTER 4
Daniel
I gazed at the pretty lady standing in front of me.
Sophia
Hello, how may I help you?
Daniel
(voice so sweet, melting in my ears )

Tch-Tch...creeep
Daniel
No- nothing, I heard a neighbour move in so came to greet them.
* baffled *
Sophia
*gave a sweet smile*
Sophia
*reached out hand for a handshake.*
Sophia
*Ahem*
Sorry to hear about your brother, may his soul rest in peace...
Sophia
You can come over and talk to me if you like.
Sophia
I am studying psychology so hopefully I will be able to help you a little.
Daniel
Thanks, and if you need any help you can reach out to me too.
They went back to their houses.
TV: Horrific killing takes place, and no one has seen or heard about them.
TV: No trace of the killer yet. Who is it? Why are they killing?
Reporter
Let's ask the victim's parents.
Victim's parents
We make sure the killer is found and punished harshly!
* turned off the television *
Daniel
* takes deep breath*
Daniel
* closed the door and walked out *
Daniel
* Walking slowly looking around *
Daniel
It's the same place, same scene. Broken branches and dried leaves on the ground make crunching noises as I walk.
Daniel
It's silent and peaceful, not peaceful, actually the silence is, with a sad heavy breeze.
Daniel
The policemen had moved the body, and the blood on the ground stayed, blending with the dust day by day.
Daniel
* looking for any minor evidence *
Daniel
It reminds me of James's case.
* sighed *
Daniel
* Sat by the lake nearby, moving my fingers in the cold gentle water, thinking of my childhood days. *

You aren't an old grandpa yet.
Daniel
I am sad here and being philosophical and you came and made the situation look lame?!
Daniel's parents
James Daniel, go out and play.
Daniel
At least we spoke with each other back then.
Daniel
James and I went to play with the neighbours, our friends.
Daniel
They didn't like me much as I was poker-faced, but they had a problem with James too!
Daniel
That always got me fired up as he was young and too sweet to be treated like that.
* gritting teeth and clenching his first unconsciously *
Daniel
They would bully us by purposely hurting us as we played and sometimes even used harsh words.
Daniel
James would often cry, and I would pick fights with them and get beaten and beat them up too.

That's all for this chapter.
* in a sad tone *
