"Why don't you speak up the truth that you killed your own father for revenge."
The interrogating officer said.
"I am speaking the truth. I didn't kill my father", Cara screamed.
"So are you saying that the CCTV footage is fake?"
"yes, it is fake."
"So you are saying that you didn't kill your father with this poison ricin which you were carrying on this ring?"
"Are you deaf??!!! how many times I have to tell you that it's not mine. I picked it up from the stairs outside the consultate."
"But we found it from your own pocket."
"Yes, but its not mine."
The interrogating officer looked at Cara with suspicious eyes.
"A few hours without food and water will do you good" he said and left the room.
Last night, Cara was forced to sleep on the bare floor in a small cell. She didn't sleep well. All night her father's face was dancing in front of her eyes.
The interrogating officer had come at 7:00 in the morning. He showed up with some documents and the CCTV footage. Actually, fake CCTV footage. Where it can be seen that Cara went up to her father, hit him with the ring and then hid it in her pocket.
Cara was really very confused. She wanted to know that who were behind all this and why they were doing this to her.
The interrogation room door again opened and in entered a handsome guy in cut piece suit accompained by the interrogating officer.
He looked at Cara and introduced himself "Howen Capris".
He turned to the interrogating officer and said in an authoritative tone
"I will handle this case from here".
The interrogating officer looked a little taken aback but he turned and went out of the room.
Cara looked at the man with anger filled eyes.
"If you will ask me a single question related to my dad's murder, I swear, I will kill you."
"Wow dear! this sentence tells me that you can be a potential killer. Swearing to kill someone so devilishly handsome....huh"
he smirked.
"No, I am not going to ask you any questions. Not here".
Cara raised her eyebrows.
"what do you want?"
"what would an intelligence want from a suspect.huh",he said.
He moved a file towards Cara and pointed at a blank space.
"Sign there", he said.
He made himself comfortable in the chair and looked at Cara casually.
"what are these?" Cara asked.
"Your key to freedom".
"What!! are you serious??? some people are here who waste my whole day interrogating me, then a guy enters suddenly out of nowhere telling me that he has got my bail papers. Dude, stop playing with me and just god damn tell me that what do you want from me?"
"Just sign it."
"No" Cara said stubbornly.
"first you tell me."
Howen was already choking under the guilt of the sin he had committed. Cara was making it difficult for him. Hown leaned forward, he looked into her eyes and spoke
"please listen to me just sign it. You will get all your questions answered once we are out of here. Please just trust."
Cara didn't understand what happened to her she just picked the pen and signed the papers. something in the stranger made her want to trust him.
Howen picked the file again and got up from his chair.
"Now get your ass off that chair and follow me."
Cara rolled her eyes. Howen smirked.
Cars followed Howen and out they went of the interrogation room. Howen showed the papers to the officer and spoke something to him. The officer nodded. Howen and Cara together went outside the police station.
Outside was waiting a black mercedes car. Cara just stared at the lovely car. Howen took the wheels and Cara sat next to him. Howen didn't start the ignition.
"What are you doing? Why are you not starting the car?" Cara asked.
"Because I am waiting."
"Waiting for what?"
"Be silent. Just wait and watch."
After just few minutes 2 black cars came just next to theirs, one on each side.
Written on them was H.A.W.K. Four men from each car carrying big guns got out and entered the police station.
After nearly ten minutes they came out with three men, among the three men was the interrogating officer himself. They took the men inside the car and drove off.
Cara stared at them with awe, she turned her head towards a smirking Howen
"that's how we work" Howen replied.
"See, I am not a terrorist"Cara stuttered.
"That I know"
Howen switched on the ignition.
"So, where are we going?"Cara asked.
"To your house."
"My house? by the way, how do you know my location?"
"Well, I know everything about you. We are going to your house to receive that parcel your father sent you, a few days ago."
"How do you know about that parcel?"
" I told you before, that I know everything about you, so keep your mouth shut and don't ask me any stupid questions."
Cara didn't utter a word after that. She didn't like to be ordered around but the death of her father had taken its toll on her mind so she didnt want to rebel.
She just kept silent during the whole ride.
