Chapter 7

She was imagining things. She "heard" Siegel walk in and was waiting to hear his heavy footsteps. She was reading through Siegel's interviews. He said, "I am neither a pessimist nor an optimist; I am a realist." All Alma did was sleep and eat. This cycle would not stop until Alma stopped. Alma thought back to sitting in the ambulance with Siegel, clawing at her skin. She begged God not to let him die, for she loved Joshua Siegel. She always left the lights on hoping that if Siegel were to see he would smile. She also wore the necklace he gifted her to make him smile.She would Surprise Siegel by enrolling in a course. She left the kitchen and saw the silver flash of the knife. A girl was stabbing alma yelling "You killed my brother" She couldn't feel the blows of the knife. 32 stab wounds in all. The 8 inch stainless steal german blade Jet had purchased from an Army-Navy Outlet store; for the purpose of Alma. Jet had one last blow at alma then took the necklace from Alma's neck. Jet cleaned off the necklace and herself then returned downstairs. She called Crossman and told him to come over and he'd realize why when he got there.
"It's over. There's justice now."
