Chapter Two
A Hard Day
Knock knock. "Mark? We know you're in there". Amanda called from the front door of Mark's house. "Mark open up". Jesse called. Still no answer.
Both Amanda and Jesse had tear's in there eye's since there beloved friend had just passed away the night before.
Mark finally came to the door. "What." Mark asked.
"You look terrible". Amanda said looking at him from head to toe. "I know." He said in a sobbing voice. "I didn't get much sleep last night."
"Well, here. We both got this for you." Mark opened the envelope and found a sympathy card and a note from his boss saying he could have as much time off as he wanted to.
"Thank's, but no thank for the time off. I need to keep my mind on something else than...... "
"O.k." They both said together.
4 hour's later at Community General ........................................................................................................
Amanda was walking up the stairs to the second floor of the car garage.
"How much longer do I have' to keep this up?" asked Jesse. "Until he's out of danger." Amanda heard. She peaked around the corner to see Jesse and Steve's old partner.
"Jesse". Amanda called. "Amanda". Jesse shouted. "What are you doing here?" "You told me to meet you up here at 2:00 to go over Steve's funeral arrangements." Said Amanda. "Oh, right." Jesse said. "How much did you here?" The detective asked. "Not much, I just got here." Said Amanda.
"Well, I'll be going then." "Bye." They both said in unison
"I found a nice funeral home just a few mile's from here." Said Amanda. "Ya, great." Jesse said looking dazed. "Ya, and after the ceremony I thought we would go to a club for square dancing." Amanda said as sarcastically as you can get. "Ya great." Jesse said looking even more dazed. "Jesse snap out of it." Amanda shouted snapping her fingers in front of his face. "Oh, sorry." Said Jesse. They got through the discussion and went home.
Amanda went to Mark's house and knocked on the door. Mark came to the door. "Hi Mark. Hi." He replied in a low sad voice. "Come on in."
Soon after they began talking Mark heard a knock at the door. "Yes?" "I'm here to see Steve Sloan." Oh, He..... Has passed away. Mark tried to choke out."
"I know he's in here." The man pulled a gun out of his jacket and shot two holes in the roof. "He died last night." Mark tried to say. "Oooooooooooh, Steve." The man said with a dirty look. The man grabbed Amanda by the arm and said. "I got ... What's your name?" "Amanda." She said desperately trying to get out of his monstrous grip.
