The next day, it rained, and poured hail. I sat in Lieu Swersky's office staring down at the desk in front of me. A bunch of papers sprawled across it. The only sound was the hail pounding down on the small window and the tapping of Swersky's pen. I didn't bring my eyes to him or the girl staring at me across the table, I left them down, my head hung low. I didn't feel like talking, and I surely didn't feel like being questioned for murder.
"Officer Boscorelli, we are all on your side. Tell us what happened." Swersky chimed in.
"Yeah? Oh joy." I muttered looking up at them. Cruz rolled her eyes, a wicked grin across her lips, as Swersky let out a small chuckle.
I looked at them in disbelief. "What is this, a tea party?" I spat sarcastically.
"We are not playing games, Bosco." Cruz replied leaning over by me. "Just tell us what happened."
I wanted to slap her, yet my morals wouldn't allow it. I'd never hit a girl. Never. Leaning over the desk closer to her I stared her down. "I didn't do anything and you know it." I stated simply until she gave me a disgusted look and leaned back in her chair crossing her arms watching me, a confused yet shocked look on her face. I wasn't sure why. I could never figure her out anyway. Sitting back I watched her from across the table, emotionless. "I may have never liked Noble, but I'd never kill someone." I muttered. Swersky looked from Cruz to me, a puzzled expression on his face.
"Is there something you're not telling me?" He looked blankly from Cruz to Bosco. Cruz shook her head. I could tell by the nervous expression on her face, she was up to something.
"No, not one thing happened. I haven't been in contact with Noble since," I paused, I didn't want to bring up that night, I never wanted to remember it again, "The accident." I replied my gaze returned to the ground.
"Bosco, we are sorry for your loss, did you ever think to see into some counseling?" He asked me concerned.
"That sounds all too familiar and no, I aint talking to no shrink." I replied rolling my eyes standing up. "I've had enough of this." I said enraged and headed for the door.
Cruz stood up grabbing my arm as I reached the knob. "We aren't done with you Bosco." She stated simply.
"Yeah?" I raised an eyebrow. "Well guess what? I'm done, finished, with you." I muttered in her face. She didn't loosen her grip on my arm.
"Bosco." She said watching me carefully. "Please, just tell him what happened."
I looked at her in disbelief. "You're saying you think I did it? You think I killed Noble!?" I yelled enraged with anger.
"I didn't say" She muttered but I cut her off.
"Yeah but that's what you were going to right? You think I killed Noble, I can't believe you!" I yelled pulling away from her pushing her backwards lightly. She stumbled backwards a few feet, making the push look worse then it really was.
"Stay away from me Ritza. I'm warning you." I said strictly to her. She had pushed me too far. She had to be insane or know something about the murder.
"Are you giving me orders now, Boscorelli?" She scowled. I looked at her with revulsion as I turned on my heel and stormed out.
