Chapter 4
Jenna opened the door to her apartment, flipped on the light switch and sat on the couch. She was still wondering why John had been at the bar. He couldn't have just gone in to see me, she thought. I thought he wanted nothing to do with me anymore. We went our separate ways a long time ago. She got off the couch and then got a bottle of whiskey and instead of just pouring it into a shot glass she just started drinking the alcohol out of the bottle.
With the bottle still in her hand, Jenna went back into the living room and turned on a little video. The video started out good. She smiled as her gazed at the screen. It was her 18th birthday and she was spending it with her family.
But then the video turned into something she didn't want to see. There was a loud bang on the door. The camera shot got blurry as it moved around. There was a lot of yelling and screaming. Then there was the horrible noise of shooting.
Jenna then turned off the video. She didn't want to see anymore. She put the bottle down on the table and then took some photos off the table and started to look at them. They were old photos of her and John Kennex from wen they were kids. Jenna smiled as she looked at the photos.
That's when life was so much better. We didn't have to worry about anything. We were just kids having fun. She put the photos down on the table. And then looked at the pain pills that were right in front of her. She took the cap of the bottle, put 8 pills in her mouth and swallowed them. Five minutes later, Jenna was on the floor, not breathing.
At this point John was running to the apartment with Dorian close behind. They had no idea what had just happened. John soon stopped at looked around. He didn't recognized the apartments since he had never been there before. He looked up and saw some light coming out from the window, looked at the piece of paper that Maldonado had given him.
John and Dorian then made their way up the stairs to Jenna's apartment. But when John knocked on the door, no one answered. He knocked on the door. Once again, no one was there. John was started to fear the worst.
"Maybe she's not here?" Dorian asked with a questioning look on his face.
"No. There's a light on. That means someone's gotta be in there." He kicked the door open and hurried inside as it unlatched. John stopped and couldn't believe what he saw. He ran over to Jenna, not sure if she was still breathing or not.
"What do you want me to do?" Dorian asked.
"Call an ambulance and make sure they get here quick. I don't know if she's going to make it or not," John said as he tried to lift Jenna's almost lifeless body off the ground. Please don't die, please don't die, please don't die, was the only thing John could think about as he hurried outside the apartment complex carrying Jenna down the stairs.
Thankfully there was an ambulance waiting outside. John helped get Jenna inside the ambulance, but didn't go with her as he and Dorian watched it drive off. "Why didn't you go with her?" Dorian asked with puzzled expression.
"I need to check for something before I go see her." John said as they walked back to her apartment.
"Check for what?"
John shook his head. "I'm not sure. But I got Jenna's files and apparently she was a drug addict for a couple of years after her parents died. I just want to make sure there isn't anything like cocaine in her apartment."
