CHAPTER 12 °°°
AUTHOR'S POV
Luciano got to the united states and sneaked into Jeromino's mansion in disguise as a janitor with fake beards on.
"I don't remember calling for a new janitor" Jeromino said rudely.
"I'm helping my colleague, he's not in a good condition today so I'm filling in for him" Luciano lied as he had a flashback on what he did to the janitor.
~ When Luciano arrived earlier. He waited outside thinking of a way to get into the building just then the janitor arrived at the gate so Luciano knocked him out and put him inside his car booth ~
"Alright go ahead. You will be so busy today because you will be moving my stuffs to the storeroom" Jeromino said sarcastically then walked away.
The only thing I will be moving to the storeroom is parts of your body. Luciano said in his head glaring at Jeromino as he got into his room.
Later in the evening....
Ciro and Elias visited Jeromino.
"Elias what are you doing here? You still have the nerve to show your face in my house?" Jeromino shouted.
"Jeromino you're taking this too far. Have you developed feelings for Fernanda?" Elias shouted then Luciano came out of the storeroom as he heard Fernanda's name.
"Nonsense! What do you take me for? You should admit what you did was terrible. You raped Fernanda for goodness sake" Jeromino shouted and Luciano clenched his fist as he brought out his gun from his pocket.
"I just had one round with her, what's the big deal. You also used her so don't play innocent here and this isn't the first time we're doing this so why are you making a fuss about this" Elias said sarcastically and Luciano hide behind a pillar as he stayed in a good position.
Bastards! You raped my niece and you say it's no big deal. You will regret saying those words. Luciano said angrily in his head then he shot Elias at his left leg and swiftly he shot Jeromino on his left hand.
"Who's that?" Jeromino winced holding his bleeding arm, Elias fell on the ground already and Ciro ran out of the building in hurry after Elias and Jeromino got shot.
Luciano ran out of the building through the back door. He threw the janitor out of his boot then drove off before the police arrives.
°°°°°°°
Fernanda went into her room then ran into the washroom, she locked the door hard.
She turned on the shower and took off her clothes. She sat in the bathtub and suddenly tears began to roll down her cheeks as she had flashes of last night rape incident.
"Who ever did that, why did you do that to me? Why me? What have I done to deserve such" Fernanda screamed as water flow down from her hair to face. She draining but you can tell tears was rolling down her eyes.
Her fingers ran through her hair and she sobbed heavily.
Fernanda grabbed her bar soap and scrubbed her skin terrifyingly. She felt disgusted as she scrubbed hard.
~ "Like I heard, you're good. I would have gone easy on you if you weren't stubborn in the first place" His voice echoed in Fernanda's ears.
~ "Someone from your family stopped your mother's case. Do you have any idea who acts suspicious about your mum's case because I have a hunch someone in your family knows who killed your mother " The officer said politely. ~
"Go to hell! You should all rot in hell! Why's everyone so evil? Why?" Fernanda screamed and suddenly an idea popped on her head.
"Uncle Luciano can get justice for mummy so I should go drop the last piece of evidence in his bedroom" Fernanda uttered as she came out of the shower.
She went into Luciano's room.
"Where should I put this?" Fernanda deliberated on where to place the call log print out but her eyes caught with something under Luciano's bed.
"What's that?" I gasped out in shock as she picked it up. It was a gun bullet.
What's a gun bullet doing here? Fernanda questioned in her head staring at the bullet and swiftly began to search Luciano's room.
She searched his drawers and closet but couldn't find anything to convince her otherwise so researched the drawers and found her mum's cellphone in one of the drawers.
What's mum's cellphone here? Fernanda questioned then she had a flashback on what the police officer said to her.
~ "Someone from your family stopped your mother's case" ~
"It's not true. Uncle Luciano will never be involved in such a thing, uncle Luciano cares alot for his family there's no way he's involved in mum's murder" Fernanda uttered with her hands on her hair as she sat on his bed slowly.
She went back to her room with the bullet in her hand.
Fernanda dialed the officer's number.
"Officer do you still have the autopsy of my mum?" Fernanda asked seriously over the phone.
"I think it's in your mum's record but why do you need it? Have you put some thoughts into what we discussed the last time. You told me you weren't ready to dig into your mum's murderer. Are you ready now?" He asked over the phone and Fernanda swallowed hard as her heartbeat raced nervously.
"Yes officer, I'm ready to dig into my mum's case. It's high time I get justice for mummy so let's start with the autopsy" Fernanda said nervously as she looked at the bullet in her hand.
"You made the right decision Fernanda. Someone dropped by and collected some information about your rape case. I think someone is digging into your case" The officer informed and Fernanda looked away not knowing who would do that.
"Officer do you think the rapist sent someone to get information to know if we're getting any clues about him?" She asked curiously.
"It doesn't look that way, he looked determined to get that criminal. He was like some sort of prosecutor" The officer explained.
"Officer I really don't care whoever that is but I would love to keep the reopening of my mum's case confidential. My family shouldn't get informed either" She instructed.
"Did you get any clues whatsoever on your mum's case?" He asked.
"I don't think I have but I have to confirm something first. Officer see you at the station tomorrow. Thank you" Fernanda said politely then hung up.
Fernanda went into her gallery then deleted all her pictures with Jeromino and his photos as well.
A notification popped up on Fernanda's phone. She opened it and it's a news about Jeromino being shot at home by some unknown men.
Fernanda laughed hard at the sight of that.
"You deserve whatever pain come your way Jeromino, I'm done mourning you" Fernanda said seriously then frowned.
NEXT DAY
Fernanda went to the station and got Maria Jose's autopsy result.
"Officer does this bullet look like the one my mum was shot with?" Fernanda asked curiously as she brought out the bullet from her pocket.
"Your mum's case was closed so I guess the bullet from her chest was taken as well but according to the autopsy report, the bullet must be from a rare gun but let me have a look at the bullet so I can give it out for research. This bullet looks very rare" The officer said looking at the bullet as Fernanda handed it over to him.
I pray this bullet proves my suspicions for uncle wrong. I can't bear to hate the whole world at once. Fernanda said in her head nervously.
"Officer is it possible if we get the results tomorrow?" Fernanda asked anxiously.
"Results like this takes quite sometime because the companies wouldn't tell out their secret weapon to the police so it must be sold to criminals only because it's a rare weapon" The officer explained and Fernanda nodded in agreement.
"I hope it gets sorted out faster so we move on and get a lawyer for mummy" Fernanda uttered seriously as she sighed.
"Those who fight for the truth finds it hard getting to the truth but trust me Fernanda, the truth will always prevails" He encouraged.
"It doesn't matter how long it takes as long as justice prevails" Fernanda said confidently.
FEW MONTHS LATER....
Fernanda kept on going to the station looking for clues in her mother's case and positively she's getting closer to the truth but her suspicions about Luciano was proven wrong.
"Fernanda the sketch of your mum's murderer have been drawn. It wasn't easy getting our hands on that CCTV footage of twelve years ago but luckily we did, come have a look" The officer said and Fernanda smiled excitedly as the sketch was given to her.
"You murderer, you're a goner" Fernanda said angrily looking at the sketch with red eyes but she suddenly felt nauseous.
"Fernanda are you okay?" The officer asked and she nodded rubbing down her chest.
"I think it suddenly became stuffy here, excuse me officer. I should use the washroom, I will be right back" Fernanda said slowly then walked quickly to the washroom to throw up.
Fernanda why are you feeling this way? It's probably not what I'm thinking right. Fernanda questioned herself as she poured some water on her face.
But wait a minute.... I haven't seen my cycle for the past few months. Why am I just noticing that now? Fernanda gasped in her head staring at herself at the mirror.
"Fernanda relax, you can't be pregnant for those bastards. No you can't!" Fernanda screamed with her fingers in her hair as she ruffled her hair and hot tears began to roll down her cheeks.
