Standing on the other side of the room with a glass partition that isn't see-through, I listened to the officer interrogate Maya.

The case is been taken to court, but we need to figure out if there is a connection between her and the missing twins. The evidence we have pointed at the fact that she might be my father's murderer, but it didn't mention anything about the kids.

"Do you know this man?" the detective asked, sliding a picture of Clover to him. She glanced down at the picture and shook her head. "please take a look at it and take your time before answering." He advised her.

Maya, clearly pissed and trying not to give too much away stared at the picture again. "I just told you that I do not know that man."

Detective nodded. "If you don't mind me asking, who pays the rent for where you stay with your mother?" Folding my hands, I watched Maya closely, knowing that she was slowly walking into the trap the detective was setting for her.

"On the contrary, I do mind." She spat out.

The detective chuckled. "it is too bad that you mind because it does not make any difference whether or not you care. Any question does not answer here, you will still answer in court."

He picked out another document and dropped it in front of her. "You claim not to know this man, but the payment of your rent was traced back to him. How do you not know him, and yet he pays your rent?" She shrugged, trying to appear nonchalant. "He must be a good Samaritan."
