Chapter number 25. The nanny.
"Hey, you must be Amy" Harry said very warmly, coming down to her level.
Amy was still frightened by the sight of the man in front of her. Her nanny had read her a lot of stories about people who looked a lot like him, she called them police men, in her stories they were horrible people who locked people away, and sometimes they even killed them.
"Please don't hurt me" Amy said very frightened and was beginning to cry.
"Hey, I'm not going to hurt you. There's no need to cry" he said coming closer to her.
As he came closer, Amy began to freak out even more and stepped backwards until she hit the pink wall behind her, her five year old mind hadn't quite realized that stories weren't always correct .
"Amy" a voice called from a room not to far away and a woman who looked like she was in her late forties or early fifties entered the room, she had light brown shoulder length hair that was almost as lifeless as her dull blue eyes that seemed to be full of sadness. She was wearing some casual denim jeans and a pail sleeved shirt.
"Nanna, help me" Amy cried from where she had pushed herself up against the wall right next to her tall mirror that stood up straight on it's two wooden legs.
"What's going on here" the lady asked turning her attention to Harry standing near Amy in his police uniform.
"Mame I have been given permission to search the premises and I'm sorry but the two of you are going to have to come down to the police station with me.
"I'm not going anywhere with him" Amy declared, running over to her nanny and hiding behind her like she was a shield, sticking her head out to make sure that Harry wouldn't come any closer to her.
"At least tell us what's going on" The nanny asked, starting to look slightly frightened as well.
"I'm sorry but I can't give that information out right now. Now if you would like to make this as stress less as possible then I suggest that you come with me now" Harry informed her. She sighed and nodded her head, letting Harry escort her and Amy out of the house and into the car were two other officers escorted them to the station. Amy sat in silence the whole way and sobbed quietly so she couldn't be heard.
In the police car in front of them Harry was talking to some constables back at the station "I want you to do a back ground check on the nanny when we get there, there's something not right about this case and I'm certain that she's got something to do with it.
Next time:
Who's Amy's nanny?
What will Amy tell the police?
Will Harry crack the case?
