Suddenly Married!

Suddenly Married!
Goodbye to Mad Women


Yesterday's incident was a little suspicious, because Kevin and Edgar suddenly asked to go home after returning from the toilet. However, Grace had no idea what the problem was! 


"It's nothing. You better get to class, Grace."


Grace narrowed her eyes at Kevin. Why did Kevin switch the conversation? Was yesterday's incident so secretive that it couldn't be carelessly discussed? 


"If you don't want to tell me then I won't ask you again. But, instead you should have a second date with me. Today!"


Faster is better, isn't it? After all, Grace had only asked for three dates with Kevin. The first date, they already did yesterday and now Grace intends to charge for her second date. 


"All right, I agree."

Sitting leisurely on the balcony, Anna checked her cell phone which had just been turned on. 


"Yes God! My phone's full of Grace's name!"


There were more than ten missed calls and five incoming messages from Grace. It seems that Grace is very worried about Anna not going to college all of a sudden.


"It looks like I should start using Wendy's services to help me" Anna muttered. 


For students last semester, absent from college one day was very detrimental. Because, they will be left behind very valuable courses that may be used for important tasks. However, to avoid such a thing, Anna had her own way.


Yes, Anna called Wendy's phone and told her to attend Anna's course. At first Wendy refuses because she is unlikely to leave her college schedule to replace Anna's studies. After all, Wendy is also a final semester student, she must be diligent in entering and attending lessons if she wants to graduate. 


"Did? So, you're refusing my orders?" anna said on her phone, "Then, is it okay if I reveal the secret you keep so much?"


Married to Edgar makes Anna someone who does not want to lose and likes to play tricks on others. So, don't ever look for trouble with Anna now. 


"OK, okay! I'll take your class, Anna Florence!" reply Wendy across the phone. 


"Yes, that's what you're supposed to do. Happy studying! I'm waiting for your notebook, Wendy!"


Tut's. Anna ended her call unilaterally. Toying with others was fun until Anna forgot the pain from her wound.


What about Andy, huh? Did he get an apology from Farrell? After contacting Wendy, Anna suddenly thought of her sister. 


It's been a long time since Anna has heard from Andy. The last time she met, Anna was angry with Andy until her sister left the house. Anna had not even apologized for scolding and accusing Andy at that time.


"I guess Andy hates me no, huh? I was talking rudely to him." Anna sighed after a small mutter. Before getting married, Anna and Andy used to fight each other every day. I don't know why that moment made Anna miss. How lost Anna was to be away from her sister and family. 


Feeling the breeze that hit her skin, Anna then closed her eyes while tightening the blazer attached to her tiny body. His ears heard the sound of the joy of children playing outside the apartment building. 'How happy is childhood, ' he thought. Being an adult is difficult, unlike children who are free to play to the fullest without having to think about problems. 


As he was enjoying a beautiful day, suddenly the sound of an apartment bell rang. Anna was forced to get up from her seat to see who was the one who struck the bell. 


Anna opened the apartment door without looking at the monitor. As soon as the door opened, two men in neat uniforms stood there. 


"Is this Edgar Dominic's residence? We're from the New York Police Department."


The cops? Why would a person in charge of serving the country be in front of his apartment? They even mentioned the name Edgar. Anna was stunned for a moment because of their arrival. 


"Edgar Dominic is my husband. What's wrong?"


"Please call your husband, we want to meet."


"Wait a minute!" 


Frustrated, Anna leaves the two policemen for a moment to call Edgar. She entered the office where her husband was. 


"Ed ..," said Anna, "there are cops looking for you. Can you come out for a second?"


"Police?" Edgar raised one eyebrow upwards. Anna knows that Edgar is confused because Anna feels the same way. 


"Yes, they're in front of our apartment."


Saying that, Anna and Edgar go hand in hand to meet the police who are looking for Edgar. I don't know what's really going on, but Anna is hoping that Edgar is okay and not involved in anything. 


"I'm Edgar Dominic. What's the matter that the police are looking for me?" said Edgar. Though he never committed an offence to have to deal with the police, but why the police are looking for him.


"Edgar Dominic, you have to come with us to the police station to give a statement."


What information should Edgar give? Why New York police are so wordy and don't explain everything at once. They were just wasting the time Edgar had to work. 


"Why should I go with you two? I have to do the work, but you have interrupted my work."


"Venna Baldwin was found dead in her home with a stab wound to the stomach. We found a lot of your photos in his room. We're just asking for some information from you because you seem to know him."


Venna's dead? Just yesterday the woman showed herself in front of Edgar, but now she's dead? If his stomach was stabbed, does that mean he was killed? 


There were so many questions Edgar had in mind, but for now he had to go to the police station to testify. Although Venna was a bad person to Edgar, Edgar had to be kind to the dead. 


Arriving at the police station, Edgar and Anna sit in an interrogation room. Edgar tells Anna to stay in the apartment, but she insists on going with him. 


"We'll start with a few questions. When was the last time you saw Venna Baldwin?"


"Yesterday at the playground" replied Edgar. He will answer the police question briefly. 


"From the information we found, you're a victim of Venna Baldwin's abduction and sexual abuse, right?"


Because the police already knew it from Venna's police records, so Edgar thought not to cover up the fact. After all, it's just the past. Although Edgar still has the trauma of the incident, but he will work together to complete the investigation. 


Edgar nodded his head. "Yes," he answered. He looked seriously at the police. "Is this a murder case?"


"As you might expect, this is a murder case and ... You're one of our suspects."


"Suspecting? Why do you say that to my husband, sir? You said that my husband was just giving information, but why was he a suspect?!"


Anna was going to be calm because Edgar told her to be quiet while she was in the interrogation room. However, if the police accused Edgar of being a murderer, Anna could not stand by! 


"Edgar Dominic is one of the victims of Venna's crimes, isn't there definitely a grudge in his heart? Especially yesterday when they met at the playground. From the CCTV we saw at the playground cafe, Venna was seen provoking Edgar and harassing him."


"Decredibly?" Anna was shocked by the police. Is that why Edgar looks pale and chaotic after returning from the toilet? thought.
