Chapter 6
Nikki held the knife out in front of her, watching the moonlight glint off it. She then turned to look at Amy who was still asleep. She looked from the knife to Amy and then back again, considering what to do.
âE?Say gâEnight sisâE? she whispered and went to plunge the knife down. She couldnâEt do it. She and Amy may be enemies but also sisters and she couldnâEt kill her. Instead she roughly shook her awake. Amy looked up, bleary eyed and sleepy. Her pupils dilated in fear when she saw Nikki looking at her.
âE?Are you going to kill me?âE? she whispered
âE?âE~Course not stupidâE? replied Nikki putting the carving knife down, glad that Amy hadnâEt seen it. âE?IâEm here to talk to you. Get up weâEll go for a walk.âE?
Amy put her dressing gown on and they headed out of the door. They walked barefoot along the veranda.
âE?So, what do you want with my Jeffy then sis?âE? Asked Nikki.
âE?HeâEs not yours. And donâEt call him Jeffy.âE?
âE?I couldnâEt believe it when you turned up. I knew Jeffy had invited some family but whatâEs the chance of his family being, well my familyâE? Said Nikki. Amy nodded.
âE?IâEm sorry about earlier NikkiâE? Nikki shrugged, Not wanting to say it was OK or forgiven as it was neither.
âE?Do you still hate me for theâE¦you knowâE¦that thing?âE?
âE?Say it Nikki. Deceit? Suicide? Ruining my life?âE?
âE?Yeah thatâE?
âE?That?âE?
âE?YeahâE?
âE?YeahâE?
âE?OhâE?
âE?Will you ever forgive me?âE?
âE?Let me thinkâE¦errâE¦ NO!âE?
âE?I didnâEt mean to, well I did but I didnâEt know what was going to happen alright!âE?
âE?You called me a murderer earlierâE?
âE?You called me oneâE?
âE?You are oneâE?
âE?I told you I didnâEt know it was going to happen!âE?
âE?OK then. Not murder. Manslaughter.âE?
âE?Shut upâE? screamed Nikki.
A door slammed back at the house and Jeff came over to them.
âE?WhatâEs going on?âE? he asked. The girls looked at each other.
âE?NothingâE? Said Nikki who then walked back to the house.
Jeff turned to go too but Amy stopped him.
âE?Wait JeffâE? she said, âE?thereâEs something that you should know. YouâEre marrying a murderer!âE?
Dum Dum Duuuuuuuuuum. Nikki is a murderer, who did she kill, youâEll find out in chapter 7.
