Happenstance -I

 Sometimes, the greatest enemy of the evil is a happenstance and it is frightening.

                        As the clock chimed 12, I pulled the trigger. I can almost hear the bullet running down the barrel and making a hole in the skull of the man standing infront of me. I might have imagined it all. But the truth is that, now I have a man who has a hole through his head and blood pulling around him. Though, it's my duty...

                       I met this guy a week back. I would describe him as a gracious person, an intelligent friend and a terrible monster. But his disgrace was yet to come. It was a Saturday morning when I first saw him. It wasn't usual for me to take a week off but the strain of recent cases and a hectic work schedule forced me to take a mini vacation.

                          Mark was with me when I boarded my flight from Bangkok to Krabi. He was on the seat just next to me. He struck up a conversation with me and instantly, we became good friends. However, the first topic which he chose for our conversation was quiet a bit contradicting and very unusual. He hated politicians. (Everyone has their own preferences. Though it's not good for a first conversations.) Moreover, not only was he disrespecting them, but also he created a negative image of them through his writings. Mark had a quick wit and a flare for languages. I could have almost guess that he was an author. I vowed to pick some books when I left the airport.    

                                   After gruelling 6 months in my job, I wanted nothing more, but to sit on a chair infront of an open window and read a good book with a hot cup of tea. As I sack down reading the books given by Mark,( all his books were of murder mystery) somethings struck me. I never told Mark about my job ( Cause talking to an FBI agent can be quiet intimidating)  besides, the books were eerily describing the recent murders of the politicians that I had been investigating. It was pretty suspicious cause these things are very much confidential.

                                 I remembered, in our conversation, Mark had letslip that he was working on a book named "The bloody bride" about some legislator as a protagonist. Mine being an investigating mind, knew that a murderer had confessed his next murder...
