Chapter 35- Angel or Demon?
Annie slammed the door of her car and jumped out, finding a near-by officer, she exclaimed, "What is going on!"
The officer turned to her, and trying to calm her with a raised arm he said, "I'm sorry, miss, but you'll have to give us some space to work." He tried to gently coax her away from the house, but Annie refused to be led away.
The officer continued to insist that she leave and so, thinking of nothing more she could do she blurted out, "The boy who lives here is my boyfriend."
The officer looked at her in suspicion for a moment, and then said, "Well, then, you'll be happy to know that he is fine…" The officer was continuing but Annie ignored him, as Jayden had just appeared behind the officer.
Pushing past the flustered policeman, she walked to Jayden, screaming, "Oh my God.." She was almost to him now, and his eyes were on him. His face dawned a new black eye, two large cuts, one which was bruised, and several smaller scraps.
When she reached him, he stood hands to side, staring at her, and then she flung her arms around him, whispering in his ear, "What happened, are you okay?"
He pulled her back and looked at her, not sure what to say. The officer pried her off of him, and started to pull her away, asking, "Do you know this girl?" Jayden nodded his affirmative response. "How do you know her?" Jayden didn't answer. "She said she was your girlfriend, is that true?" Jayden looked at Annie through the side of his eyes and nodded to the officer.
The policeman reluctantly left, and the two sat on the curb in front of Jayden's house. Annie stared at him for a moment, his hair covered his eye once again. Annie reached up a gentle hand swept the hair from his eye. "Where is everyone?"
Taking her question to be asking about the neighbors, Jayden answered, "We haven't any neighbors on either side, and the only other one on our street in town this week is over the age of 80."
"No," Annie said, trying not to smile, "Where is Rob?"
Jayden stared at her in a moment of incomprehension. His eyes began to tear a little and in a cracking voice he answered, "Rob is dead." Annie gasped, gaping at him in horror. "I found him about six when I returned home from work. He was dead. He killed himself."
Annie started to say something, and was interrupted once again by the rude police officer. "Eh-hem" He cleared his throat. "May I speak with each of you individually?" The man asked, and both complied.
Annie sat on the sidewalk for a moment while Jayden was questioned yet again, and then the officer led him back to her, and took her away for a moment out of earshot of Jayden.
"What is your name, please."
"Annie, Annie Hendrix."
"How long have you known this young man?" The officer asked.
"I don't know, about two months?" Annie replied.
"And how did you meet him?"
"We are in a play together…" She saw the man write something on his small notebook.
"How well do you know," He looked at his notebook, "Mr. Remsen?"
"Fairly well, I think…"
"Does he ever get… angry?"
Annie stared at the officer, and then without thinking she replied a blunt, "No."
"And have you ever met this, Mr. Robert Remsen?"
"No, sir, I haven't." She answered.
"That will be all, thank you."
Jayden was escorted to the hospital to clean his wounds. When Annie asked where they were from he said that upon seeing Rob's body he had fallen backwards, and hit a lamp, which shattered and hit him in the face.
