It was just after 7:30am and Alison was getting the kids ready for school when there was a knock at door. At first she ignored it, but then a officer yelled for her to open it... or they would.

As she ushered the kids into the bedroom with their still sleeping father, she noticed her clone phone on the vanity and put it in her pajama pants pocket.

Walking slowly towards the front door, she squinted to see how many cops were outside and mentally slapped herself for picking powdered glass, as you could never quite make out the blurry shapes on the other side

"Open the door... NOW, Mrs. Hendrix" said a male officers voice

Alison took a breath, opened the door and... came face to face with Angie.

Her first instinct was to run but Angie grabbed her by the arm

"No you don't, sweetheart! We need to have a little chat.."

"A chat?"

Biting her lower lip, alison gave a quick look back to the bedroom her children were in, then said

"Can we step outside? My children are still asleep"

"Sure, Ali", Angie always started conversations by putting people on the defensive, why?.

Alison frowned

"It's Mrs. Hendrix, Miss Deangelis" she emphasized the MISS, to make Angie uncomfortable

"Absolutely, I apologize. Mrs. Hendrix, we think you might know more about a death that occured in this street afew weeks back

Looking down at her notepad, she grinned

Aynsley Norris, you knew her right?"

"Yes. I knew her, she's was a neighbor and good friend, why?"

Alison's nervous tick kicked in and she started to tug at her hair

"It's just... something doesn't really add up for me, like, how does a stay at home mom get her scarf caught in the garbage desposal? Doesn't that seem odd to you?"

"It's a tough job, raising kids. You can get distracted and forgetful quite easily, Detective"

Angie moved in close, putting her arm around alison

"Do you recall if you happened to see her that day?"

"Um, I don't know.. to be honest. Sorry, it's just the kids have activities and... it's been a hectic few weeks"

The persistent detective could feel ali begin to shake beneath her, so she tightened her grip on her shoulders

"That's funny, because your OTHER neighbors say they saw you enter her house on that day...
Do you remember why and around what time?"

"I.. uh, maybe an event we had planned. The kids would have had to have been at school... so, 1ish?!"

Donnie stormed out onto the front porch, yelling

"Get your hands of my wife!"

He yanked alison from angie's clutches and tried to take her back inside but it was about to get much worse

"Alison Hendrix, we're taking you in for questioning on the suspected murder of Aynsley Norris!"

As Detective Deangelis and two other police men were dragging Alison from her home

"Donnie, the kids...

Alison gasped, her children were standing at the open bedroom door, tears in their eyes, she tossed her clone phone into his hands

Just please look after them and call this number"

Angie looked at Donnie and pointedly said

"Spend time with your kids, Mr. Hendrix, because I'll be coming for you next!"
