Hit and Run
Ch. 6- Reality Check Two Part Three
"We have some questions for you." said the police officer to Jamie. "You need to come with us." Jamie nodded soberly. He knew this had been coming. "Alright." he looked towards the rest of the squad, "Can you tell me, what happens to Tessa?"
"We'll do that." the officer interrupted, as he was led to the police car, his parents following close behind. Jamie had suspected they'd handcuff him, but they didn't. Jamie was brought to the police station and put in the kind of room you see on television. The hospital had checked his blood alcohol level so they knew he hadn't been drinking. Still, they asked more questions.
"So, you said you had been speeding, when you hit the girl?" the officer said.
"Yes, I was trying to get to work." The officer began to ask another question, but was interrupted.
"The mother wants to talk to the boy." another cop said.
"Alright, send her in." Jamie was nervous, what would Tessa's mother want to say to him? The mother looked worn and grief stricken when she came in. She looked straight into Jamie's eyes and said: "She's gone. She died an hour ago." Jamie's heart stopped. He had killed her..
"She only opened her eyes once, but she said she had an angel. A man angel with black hair." The mother replied. Tessa had been referring to Jamie. "I want to talk you for staying with my daughter."

Jamie had been in jail for a few days, as he awaited his hearing. He had been charged with reckless driving. The judge had been easy on him, thou because he had not hit Tessa and then leave, so he good a light sentence, one year probation and his lies cense revoked till he was eighteen. Jamie felt he should have gotten more. The guilt of Tessa would always be with him.
Always…
