The Case

By: Cristian

Chapter 8

It has been a while since I have written in this journal pad and recorded my daily events. A bunch of crazy stuff has occurred, from me getting fired from my work because I was overly suspicious of a coworker to now me starting my own side hustle to make extra dough and to figure out this case. Even though I was fired, I was not going to let this bad guy win. I was and currently am determined to put him to justice. Not just to keep peace, but also for my own sake.

I wish things could have ended differently at my old job at the detective agency. But I knew I was in danger myself. As I got up this morning, I could see fog outside my apartment building; not really feeling up for going for a walk, I started my coffee and opened my laptop. Expecting to see a new email from this criminal aka the masked singer. I did not see any new messages at that moment. It made me curious as to what had happened. Was MS (the masked singer) truly done with me?

Had he moved on and was I safe? I could sense and smell that the coffee was almost ready, and I could hear my upstairs neighbor blaring music.

I felt deep down that this criminal was in hiding and I felt unsafe not knowing what to expect….
