  Here we are,again,Ryles said to me.He got a little too close and I turned my head and looked out the car window.Oh c'mon Keiran,is being in an enclosed space with me so terrible.Yes,I replied.He looked away and smiled.Oh,Ryles,what a man,I thought.He was tall and ever so handsome,he could be a little immature but then again,thats what makes him so cute.I shook my head a little and he noticed.Something on your mind,he asked.Just want this case to be over so I can go home.He nodded,eyes glued to my face.What,I snapped.His mouth turned at the edges.What,I repeated calmly.Your eyes are really pretty,he whispered.I felt the colour go to my cheeks.Ummm....Ryles,look,theres the suspect...leaving the victim's building?Ha,just like I said,Ryles smiled.I climbed out of the car and walked quickly toward Tipper.Tipper James,what are you doing here,I questioned sternly.He looked at the floor.Ryles cracked a smile.Turn around Tipper,you are being taken in for questioning about the death of Katrina Givossi.Ryles followed me into the interrogation room.We took our seats across from Tipper.Look,I swear I didnt kill Katrina,I loved her,he spilled.I folded my hands and so did Ryles.Prove it,I said.I was at club NeNo on thursday night,ask Hayley Ross,she was my date,he explained.Ryles jotted the name of his allibi down and nodded at me.Wait,if you loved Katrina,why were you out with another woman,I asked.Cases like these ones really pissed me off.Oh,I love them,but I can cheat,Hell no.Hayley Ross is my best buddy's sister,she came to visit,but her bro had to work,so he asked if Id show her a good time,I agreed,hes my best friend,he spoke with honesty in his voice,but Ive learnt,criminals use that voice when they really want to get away with something.What is her brothers name,I asked.Sampson,he replied.Ryles kept on writing this all down.I nodded.Now why were you at Katrina's building today,I looked into his eyes.There were faint buds of water forming at the corners.I was getting some of her belongings,Her father asked me to retrieve certain items of hers for him to keep,he said he couldnt do it himself,he'd break down.I nodded.Why did you come out empty handed,this should be interesting.I couldnt find any of the items he asked for,he pulled a list out of his jeans pocket and handed it across the table.I took it and un folded the paper.There was about 6/7 items on the list and an emty check box beside each.A photo album,birth certificate,wedding dress...Wedding dress,I said aloud.Yeah,she was supposed to be married about a year ago,it was called off,he answered.Why,I didnt understand this part and it was frustrating me.Roger Demillo was cheating on her and someone found out,told her and found evidence.She called it off.Tipper shook his head and looked down.What Tipper,I asked calmly.Coming from a man who has made those mistakes,I pity him.We all make mistakes but he truly did love her.When she called it off,he was heart-broken.I studied his face.You would have had them marry instead,I asked.Look,Im not for cheaters but Im all for true love,and despite his cheating,he was good to her and he made her happy,maybe if he looked at his options again one more time,he would've made the right choice,Tipper was sheding a few small tears.Tipper,who told Katrina about her cheating husband,I was now speaking with a hint of mother.Gidd Givossi,Katrina's father,he claimed.We let Tipper leave and returned to my desk.So Gidd,Katrina's father was the one who exposed Rogers affairs to Katrina,making her call off the wedding,I thought out loud.But if Rogers the killer,wouldnt he kill Gidd instead of Katrina,he did love her,Ryles interjected.Unless...Doe,check Roger Demillo,see if he has any past and find him,I yelled over my shoulder.What are you thinking,Ryles asked his eyes searching mine.Um,Im thinking that Gidd is a pretty well off man,financially,what if there was another reason he wanted to call off the wedding-and he hired a proCon to fake the"evidence"which caused the call off,he finished my sentence.Yes but then why would he still kill her,he sat back in his chair.I snapped my fingers,because he knew they were fake but when he told his soon to be wife the truth,She didnt believe him,I smiled proud that I came up with the solution.Yes,so if she had as much trust as someone in that level of a relationship is supposed to have,she would have been able to save their lives together,he concluded.He has a dui and a roberry charge,but other than that is clean,and he should be in soon,Doe called over my shoulder.Thank you Doe,I replied.Now what,Ryles asked.We wait untill he is brought in,I replied.I sat back in my chair.You know what,Ryles asked.What,I muttered.Tipper said that he loved Katrina,right...Yes,I answered,now intrigued by what he is saying.He also said he felt bad for Roger,but nobody told him that the evidence was fake-He said he wasnt for cheaters aswell,if you really loved someone and then they get cheated on,would you really feel bad for the cheater,I questioned close to him.I inhaled the sweet,musky smell of his cologne.How did he find out the evidence was fake,he questioned me.Maybe Gidd told him,I replied,losing my sense to his scent.But Gidd wouldnt want anyone knowing about what he did to his daughter,he replied now holding my gaze steadily.So...He must have had something to do with it,I snapped out of the trance.Unless,Roger told him,he replied,dis-satisfied.Doe,check Tipper James phone records,if he had any calls to Gidd Givossi,or Roger Demillo,I yelled again.Got it,Doe replied.Me and Ryles High-fived.When Roger was in the IR(interrogation room),Ryles followed me and sat in the same spot as earlier with Tipper.Is this about Katrina,he asked,nervously.Yes,as you know she was killed,where were you Thursday evening 10:00-11:00,Roger,I asked.I was at a buddy's place,he replied without hesitation.Whats your buddy's name,I asked folding my arms over my chest.Sampson Ross,he replied with a tone of,Why does it matter.Ryles mouth dropped,so I put my hand on his arm to remind him thats not the way it goes here.He shut it and I removed my hand.How do you know Sampson,I asked.We were a close group,the three musketeers,he said reliving a childhood memory,from his mind.3,I asked calmly.Yeah,me,Sampson and Timothy James.James,I poked Ryles who had let his jaw slip again.Yeah,I believe he goes by-Tipper,Ryles and I finished.Yes,he nodded.Thank you Roger,stay here for one minute,I said.I motioned for Ryles to follow me.When we closed the IR door,I slapped Ryles.Dont show him that there are leads,I whispered,and slapped him agin.Ow,stop hitting me,he whined.I sighed.Roger was released for now.We walked back to my desk and started jotting stuff down.So Gidd had the fluffs made,showed them to Katrina,she broke up with Roger,Roger told Tipper,I asked.They are close,Ryles added.Theres just 1 missing piece,I thought out loud.What,Ryles asked looking into my eyes once again.Sampson,he came up twice but theres no suspicions,why is that,I asked Ryles.He leaned in closer,we havnt looked into him yet,he answered with a smile.And by the way,sorry,he leaned back.For what,I asked,returning his smile.Tonight you might be stuck here with me,figuring this case out,he answered.I fake sighed and mumbled "torture".I told Doe to get Sampson and Hayley in here,I anounced.Great,he smiled.When the siblings were in the IR,we came in and did the same thing as 2 times earlier.Sampson,what do you do for a living,I asked calmly.I am a graphic designer,he said wearily.Tell me the truth here,I said nonchalantly.Did you make those fluff cheating photos for Gidd,you do have use of programs on the computor,being a graphic designer,I questioned.He looked down,guiltily.Yes,he whispered.I nodded.Did Gidd pay you enough to bury your childhood friendship with Roger,I asked.Pick his weaknesses,I reminded myself.It was her fault,he said,on the edge.What was who's fault,Ryles asked relaxed.He's good,I thought.Roger deserved more than her,he whispered,possibly to himself.Roger,what happened,I prodded.Tipper knew Katrina,they were like brother and sister,so who was the first person to tell when she wanted to get her affair off her chest,Tipper,he was venting and providing information at the same time.Tipper told me but we couldnt just tell Roger and hurt him like that,so we told Gidd.I nodded and Ryles was intentive.Gidd didnt believe us,and he freaked out,he said that we were trouble and he was going to make her call off the wedding,he was shedding many tears now. 
  Why would you frame Roger like that,I continued.I figured if he never finds out the real reason the wedding was called off,because of what her father had heard,he could move on never suspecting his love could be so heartless,he whispered.So what happened after that,I asked him calmly.Roger left and never talked to me again,he said.Did he find out you made the photos?Not that I know of,we put him in a holding room for some time so we could get our facts straight before accusation.So do you have any ideas,I asked.Yes when Roger said he was out at a buddy's place,he never mentioned who,Ryles said suspiciously.Well Tipper and Hayley were accounted for at NeNo...though we never accounted Sampson at work,and-Roger supposidly hadnt talked to Sampson for about a year,why was there phonecalls almost every other week between the two,Doe said handing me the files.So going on a whim here,Ryles started,Why would Sampson kill Katrina,he asked.Maybe because she was heartless enough to cheat on his bestfriend,I replied.We went over why Roger would,what about Tipper,he continued.Same as Sampson,I guessed.Hmm,he mummbled.Gidd,I whispered.What did you say,he asked leaning in.Gidd,what if he found out that the best thing that had happened to his daughter was sent away on true accusations,I touched Ryles' arm.I quickly removed it as his smug smile became apparent.No,Ryles said,deep in thought.It was Sampson.How are you sure,I said leaning in even closer to take in the cologne again.Dont you think that Gidd would wonder why all of a sudden Sampson would screw his buddy over like that,he cocked an eyebrow.I sat back and tapped a manicured fingernail to my cheek.So Sampson knew that Katrina had wanted to stop the affair and be honest through Tipper,but he wanted to make her suffer,I stated.Now Detective Keiran,have you ever been in love and had it ripped away from you by cheating,he asked calmly.No,but i'm sure that I'd be in terrible shape,maybe I couldnt be able to find love again,I replied,little did Ryles know I wasnt being completly honest.Would your dad,say,I d'know,want to put you out of your misery,he continued.It was Gidd,it rushed out.Do you listen,Ryles said,Sampson had come and stole all of Katrina's personal items on the li-...Get Gidd Givossi in here Doe,I yelled.What,he asked.I want to know when Gidd gave the list to Tipper,I stated.why,he asked.Because if it wasnt today,he could have stolen all the items on the list to be sure Gidd didnt get them,make him pay for not listening to the truth in the first place,I explained.Wait,Ryles yelled.What,I sighed deeply,fatigue was taking its toll on me.What if Gidd gave the list to Sampson first,to steal all the items on the list,then Sampson gave it back to Gidd who gave it to Tipper and when Tipper came up empty-Gidd could blame it all on him,Tipper having not a clue,I finished Ryles sentence.But why,I asked.Because Timothy James aka Tipper,is the one having the affair with Katrina,he anounced,smiling smugly and eyeing me.Thats how he was the 1st to know,because she went to him wanting to break it all off,Roger was his friend but he loved Katrina,she told her father,but Tipper didnt know that-thats why Gidd told Sampson to make the Roger fluffs because he knew Roger was such a good guy and didnt deserve this,he was ashamed of his daughter...I ended.Cancel getting Gidd in here,I know who killed Katrina.We just said-Keep up Ryles,I smiled and stood up.Sampson,you were in the middle of it all,You watched Roger be demolished and Tipper have an affair with Roger's fiancee,you figured you made one of your buddies suffer enough,time for the next one,and so you killed Katrina,taking away what Tipper had taken away from Roger,I slammed the facts down and re-took my seat.The IR was silent.Roger had nothing,Tipper had gotten the girl,Roger's girl,it wasnt fair,he blurted,through heavy sobs.Gidd was already pissed with Katrina,Roger had been calling me every other week or so,telling me about how he knew who it was who screwed him over.He knew you made the photos,I asked calmly.No...he knew Tipper was the other man,so when I suggested we get together and talk,face to face,he came over,but Hayley-so you sent Hayley out to keep Tipper away,I cut in.He nodded.What did you two speak about,I asked,leaning in.How to get back at Tipper,he whispered.Who was the one who pulled the trigger,who was it,I said sternly. 
  ...Roger,he whispered,barely audible and slumped into the chair.Doe,Roger Demillo,NOW,I yelled.He's coming,he replied.Thanks.What about the items,huh,I asked Roger in the IR.What are you talking about,he played nonchalantly.I threw him the list,these.He looked it over,placed it on the table and crossed his arms.I have no clue,he said.He wasnt trying to look arrogant,he just came off that way.Roger,we have you up for murder,just tell us where these items are and maybe youll be lucky enough for us to get'cha in a cell with a straight cellmate,I smiled that slick smile of mine.He inhaled,so did Ryles.Sampson said he gave them to Gidd,Gidd has them,they're where they should be,he sighed.Roger Demillo,you are under arrest for the murder of Katrina Givossi,I stated,linking the cuffs on his wrists.He shed a tear or two,and the officers removed him from the building.Good job,Ryles turned to me.Thanks,you too,I replied.Well,I better be getting home,he said.Yes,sleep sounds pretty good right about now,I smiled.Till tommorow,I said.Tommorow never comes,he smiled and turned to walk away.I watched his form fade down the hall and finally disappear.I stood there for a minute and smiled to myself.Tommorow never comes,I whipsered to myself.Still smiling I grabbed my jacket and walked the same path Ryles had.I looked back at my desk and said,What a man.
