and into Jeremy’s room, which was across the hall from mine. Sure enough, the cold wind blew the curtains in different directions.
We stood there in shock. We both knew that someone had been in this house and that we were in great danger but none of us spoke.
“Call 911,” Katie finally said.
I nodded, reaching into my back pocket and pulling out my phone. I dialed the three numbers instantly and held the phone up to my ear.
“911, what’s your emergency?” a woman spoke in a velvety tone.
My voice trembled, “I think that someone was in my house.”
“What is your location?”
“Um, 26 Crystal Gate Terrace,” I told her.
“Now, you said someone was in your house. Do you know this person?”
“No,” I said frantically, “My friend and I were downstairs and I heard a noise from upstairs. I went to check it out and saw that my vase was broken and I knew it was impossible for it to break unless someone accidentally tipped it over and you’d have to be in the room to do that,” I took a deep breath, “I checked my brother’s room across the hall and saw that his windows were open.”
There was a brief silence. “We’re sending officers to your location.”
“Thank you so much,” I said and hung up the phone. “Katie, there could be a small chance that this person is still in the house so I suggest we can get in the car and drive around the block until the police come.”
“Great idea,” she agreed as she followed me downstairs and out into the driveway. “Are you going to tell Sean about this?”
“No,” I said shaking my head as I got into my car, “Sean does not need to know.”
“I think he would want to know.”
“He’s not going to want know something that he doesn’t know happened.” I snapped, “We’re not going to tell him. He’s just going to follow me everywhere.”
She didn’t need much to know that I wanted to stop talking about the situation. Besides, we had a bigger problem on our hands.
After several drives around the block, we were greeted outside of my house by two police officers. One was noticeably older than the other but they seemed like good friends, partners even. “Hello officers.”
“It’s a good thing you got out of the house,” the older one with a five o’clock shadow forming into a beard, said. “That was a smart move on your part.”
“I watch a lot of criminal shows,” I told him as I stepped outside of the car with Katie meeting up with me on the other side.
“I’m Terry,” the old one said, holding out his hand, “And this is my partner Lou.”
Lou looked obviously younger with a clean cut face and shaggy brown hair that sat like a tousled mess on top of his head. Although he was young, he was professional and it seemed that he took his job very seriously.
“Nice to meet you.” I greeted.
“Now what’s the problem here?” Terry questioned, flipping out a notepad. “Normally I would take this inside but because of the circumstances, outside will have to do.”
I exchanged a look with Katie before I took a deep breath and told them everything I knew. It started with my brother leaving for his business trip. I even told him about the flowers and notes I have been receiving and ended with the most current event of a possible
