Death of me or him?
_________________
I reached home after a tired day at work, I inclined to take things easily
But the schedule of work left me no time to rest, after having a ridiculous dinner made by the leftover of my fridge I give my cat some fish mixed in some soggy rice
My cat sniffed the food then stared at me, "Sorry Miya, I forgot to buy cat food.." I stroke my cats fur trying to convince her to eat
She was my only family left after all, she wakes me up, comforts me and makes me feel loved
Her appetite was more important than mine to me
All three weeks of November was full of hustle, the job I chose made me think if living in streets was a better option than this
Must say my boss was the last thing I would possibly want to see next morning, man breaths arrogance
I rise up to fetch a bowlful of water for my plant when Miya was done with her dinner
She clinged on my feet till my way to the balcony where my flower pot was
A cool breeze made chill run down my spine, I slowly pour the water to my plant, the dead of the night was quite Than ever.
I was in deep thought when Miya jumped on the balcony, brushing her against the flower pot causing it to fall of the balcony and land on
A person
My body was stiff, I couldn't move, I refused to believe what I saw is happening
"Holy Fu-" I gasped covering my mouth in denial
I rush out of my room and run towards the main door, hoping it was all my damn imagination, I open the door
There indeed was a person on the ground lifelessly laying down
Soon fast footsteps marched towards my door, I look to the person
A man wearing all black, the black leather covered each part of his skin only leaving his eyes open
His gase follows to the ground staring at the mess
He gives a cheeky smirk at the dead body and back at my face
"Thanks babe, you made it easier for me" his words made me even scared and confused
Without a warning he threw a bloody knife at my direction and runs away without a word
I was looking forward at the body and the bloody knife, sirens loud filled the road
Blue and red light lighting up the place, the police car stopped at my door
I realized what was ahead of me, they will misunderstand the situation
Tears filled my eyes, I couldn't move
The cops get out of the car and point their guns at me
"Hands up before you force us to take action!" The cop shouted warning me to listen
"Please, I didn't kill him, please leave me" I begged them to believe dropping on my knees

At the police station
"Why did you murder him?" The officer started to question me, I look at him trying not to cry
"Officer I have no idea what are you talking about, I don't know that man I swear!" I start to sob at the thought of rotting in prison
The officer was focused on the pages of a file he had in his hand not paying much attention to whatever I was saying
"Explain why did you stabbed him three times and punched him while strangling him to death and knocking him out with a flower pot causing him to die?" The officer looked at my dead ass confused face while I listened to his paragraph
"Bitch do you think I would do that?!?" I loose my shit at the thought.
I never even hurt a damn fly, a person can only kill some like that if he was high asf
"Yes of course you did, Now explain yourself" his face showed zero interest, he sips on his coffee while I stare at his face
Dude was on autopilot for sure
"Look, I don't know that man, I didn't hurt him" I stick to my words, the officer sighs standing up and whispering something to one of the cops
After a few minutes, the officer comes to me again and gave me a file
"Sign in the corner left" the lady officer hands me a pen, sitting Infront
"What is this?" I go through the pages of the file, while she explains
"This is the certificate of when your about to be hanged" she says plainly
"IM GONNA BE HANGED?!!" I start to panic while she yawns
"What else do you expect? Vip service for killing a man??" She stands up snatching the file from my hands and placing it back on the table
She hands me a phone "Call your parents, close someone so they can find you a lawyer"
I blankly stare at the phone, I don't have parents nor friends
"But I don't have a person to call" I glance at the officer
"Think of a number between one to jail" she says with the leftover brain cell she had left
"But I don't have parents!" I clarify her but she does not stop
"Okay cool, you'll be joining your parents soon, oh wait, your gonna be In hell not heaven" she giggles taking the phone and leaving me dumfounded
She forwards the paper to me, having no energy left to argue, I accept my fate and sign the papers
What have I gotten myself into?
