Who Killed Sandy?(Chapter 4)

Let’s just get right to the story.

Who Killed Sandy?

Chapter 4 – The Rudyard Mansion

It’s 5 o’clock, and Lorraine is eagerly waiting. Then, the doorbell rings. Lorraine opens the door and sees John in front of her. “Sorry if I’m a bit late.”

“No problem. Shall we go?”

“Yes, come with me, let’s go in my car.”

“Ok.”

They drive to the Rudyard Mansion. At the entrance, a scanner detects them and a voice comes from it. “What is your purpose here?”

*In Lorraine’s head* “Oh… I guess after Sandy’s death, her family became very depressed. Usually, as soon as they saw me, they would welcome me with open arms.”

“Hello, it’s Lorraine here, and Detective Matthews has come with me to investigate about Sandy’s case.”

“Ok, come in.”

Lorraine and John go in the mansion. There, Sally welcomes them. “Hello Lorraine and Detective. Please take a seat. My father will come shortly.”

“Hello Sally. How are you doing?”

“I guess I’m doing well.”

Then, Mr. Rudyard comes into the room. “Hello Lorraine. Hello to you too Detective Matthews. How are you doing, Lorraine?”

“I’m doing well. How are you?”

“I’m fine too. But, this has been a huge blow for Cassandra. The poor woman has been in her room the whole time.”

“Oh, that’s too bad.”

“Can you please call her out? It’s something important related to Sandy’s case.” says John.

“That will be hard. But if it’s related to Sandy, surely.”

After some whispered voices, Mrs. Rudyard comes.

*In Lorraine’s head* “Oh… Even though she’s smiling, I can clearly see that Mrs. Rudyard is very down. Mr. Rudyard is right. This has been a really huge blow for her.”

“Hello Mrs. Rudyard. This is Detective Matthews. He would like to question you all.”

“Oh, are we suspects?” says Mr. Rudyard.

“Yes.” says John.

“Why….. Why would I ever kill my own daughter…. My Sandy…” says Mrs. Rudyard.

“I’m sorry, but I will have to question you all.” says John.

“I WOULD NEVER KILL MY BABY!!!! WHO ARE YOU TO THINK THAT?!?!?!” shouts Mrs. Rudyard and charges towards John. Mr. Rudyard and Sally hold her back. “I’m terribly sorry. She’s just not in a good state.” says Mr. Rudyard.

“Yes, that’s true.” says Sally.

“I’m sorry, but I’ll still have to question you all.”

“I understand.” says Mr. Rudyard. He whispers to Mrs. Rudyard and she calms down.

“Ok, so, where were you all when Sandy was killed?”

“I was sleeping in my room.” says Sally.

“I had a party with my friends in the Rudyard hall, so I was there.” says Mr. Rudyard.

“I was sleeping in my room.” says Mrs. Rudyard.

“Hmm ok. Can I please check out your mansion?” says John.

“Yes sure.” says Mr. Rudyard.

“You come too, Lorraine.” says John.

“Ok.”

They search the whole mansion for an hour. “Ok, I haven’t found anything. I guess the family is off the suspects list.” says John.

*In Lorraine’s head* “Oh that’s good!”

“Ok!” says Lorraine.

Everyone bids their goodbyes and Lorraine and John leave the mansion. In the car, they start talking. “So, Lorraine, my department found many pictures of dull green vans with R.S. in red written on them.”

“Oh really?”

“Yes.”

“Oh ok.”

“So, I’ll bring by the pictures at say, 3 on Friday?”

“Ok. But I’m not sure if I’ll be able to figure it out. It was a bit blurry.”

“That’s fine, let’s just try.”

“Ok.”

“Here you go. We’ve arrived to your house.”

“Oh ok thanks.”

“Bye Lorraine.”

“Bye John.”

And so, John drives away and Lorraine goes in her room.

Dear Diary,

Thankfully, her family were not the criminals. I’m so glad for that. I’m waiting for John to bring the pictures. I really want to catch the person who killed Sandy. I can’t wait. I’ll also keep on writing in you till my last breath. I’ll die with you and hopefully, you’ll come with me, in heaven and I’ll show you to Sandy.

-Lorrie

Ok, that’s it for now. Next chapter, I may or may not keep pictures of the vans. So be ready for pictures and be ready for no pictures XD.

Heart talk with vani

How are you spending time in the lock down??

Hmm. Hard to say. I mean sure, school gives activities but….. Hmmm….. You see, I’m at my grandparents house in Nagpur, while my house is in Pune, so I miss my friends back there. The thing is, I have two options, either stay in Nagpur till Diwali ends, or go back after Ganesh Chaturthi and come back in time for Diwali. But, if I go back after Ganesh Chaturthi, my friends will be gone. Even though I know that, I still miss home. So yeah, that’s how things are. I’m sorry if I made you sad😅(or rather bored you XD). But let’s be happy!!!

Btw, I like this movie a lot. It’s called Whisper Of The Heart and I like all these Ghibli animes.

A Curly Sue’s Ramblings

Why did you start your blog?

Hmm… Well, my dad recommended that I start blogging to showcase my drawings and crafts. At first, I was hesitant (I don’t know why XD), but then, I decided to do it. Then I spread the blog more and more till where I have reached now. So the reason I started my blog is because of my dad.

Do you like going to school?

Well, I like GOING to school. That means that I enjoy school, but not online classes. I hardly learn a thing online XD. I enjoyed going to tuitions too.

Have you ever skipped school?😂

Well, I have skipped an online class. But by mistake. You see, I have a break from 11:30 to 12:00, but I once mistook it for 11:00 to 11:30, so I ended up skipping that class😅.

What is your favourite thing about blogging?

My favourite thing about blogging is that I’m more outgoing I am online than in real life. I can also meet new people which I can’t do in real life because of COVID-19.

Ok that’s it for A Curly Sue’s Ramblings’ questions.

My days in Montana

Why did you start blogging?

I already answered that in A Curly Sue’s Ramblings’ questions.

How do you not run out of ideas for posts?

Well, it’s not like I don’t run out of ideas. Many times, that happens. So, I make do. Like I created an award and started writing a story. That’s why I don’t have a topic for my blog. I’m sorry if you are not satisfied by my answer😅.

What do you like about my blog?

Well, I guess everything XD. I like how positive, cheerful and friendly you and your blog are. I love all your pictures too!

All right, I guess that’s it for now. If more people comment questions, I’ll add and update the answers in this post. Toodles!

Who Killed Sandy?(Chapter 3)

I hope you all liked the story till now. So here we go…

Who Killed Sandy?

Chapter 3 – At Least Some Suspects

Lorraine wakes up to a ringing phone. She picks up the phone. “Hello Ms. Miller. It’s John here.” comes from the other side

“Yes Mr., what is it?”

“We’re going to question the suspects today. Can I come at 2 o’clock?”

“What?! We have suspects?! Why didn’t you tell me?! Who are they?!”

“I’ll tell you at 2.”

“Ok, bye Mr.”

“Bye Ms.”

She keeps the phone and goes to the bathroom to freshen up.

Dear Diary,

Mr. Matthews says that there are some suspects. I can’t wait till it’s 2. But, what if the criminal isn’t one of them? Oh I can’t wait. I should have just asked him on call who the suspects are. Sadly, I don’t have his number saved. I’ll just have to wait I guess.

-Lorraine

At 2 o’clock, John arrived. “So? Who are the suspects?” asked Lorraine

“First, answer a question of mine. Can you in any way, describe the van you saw driving away from your apartment?”

“What? Do you think that the criminal was in that van?”

“Yes, maybe.”

*In her head* “Oh no! That means… I was so close to catching that bastard!

“Well, the van was a dull green, with S.R. in red written on it.”

“Ok. Thanks for the information.”

“So? Who are the suspects?”

“Well, since Sandy comes from a rich and big background, her first suspects are her family members.”

*In her head* “Huh!? Her family are suspects too?!”

“Oh… Ok.”

“So please tell me about her closest family members.”

“Yes ok. Her dad is Mr. Richard Rudyard and her mom is Mrs. Cassandra Rudyard. Her younger sister is Sally Rudyard. She’s 19, only 2 years younger than Sandy and I.”

“Hmm… Ok. Thanks for telling me. Should we go to the Rudyard mansion?”

“Yes ok.”

“Also, if Sandy is so rich, why did she become your roommate?”

“Well, Sandy was not the typical spoilt rich girl. She wanted to live a normal life and wanted to meet new people. That is one of the reasons why she was my best friend.”

“Oh… Ok.”

Suddenly, John’s phone started ringing. He picked up the call and after a small conversation, closed the call. “I’m sorry, an emergency came up. I’ll have to take my leave.” he said.

“Oh, ok. Is it something related to Sandy’s case?”

“No, it’s not”

“Ok. So when should we go to the Rudyard Mansion?”

“Let’s go at 5 o’clock.”

“Ok.”

John leaves the house, and Lorraine goes to her room to write in her diary.

Dear Diary,

I didn’t tell you this before, but, I had to move to another house after Sandy’s death. Her funeral was also so huge, thankfully I was allowed to come. That’s what I like about her family. They haven’t left their royal life, but they don’t look down upon others. They supported Sandy when she was leaving too. Talking about them, I just remembered. They are suspects too. But would they really kill Sandy too? It’s all still a mystery to me.

~Lorrie.

All right, that’s it for now. Be sure to read the coming chapter too!(Btw, Evin, I hope this was long enough XD)

~Renee

Who Killed Sandy?(Chapter 2)

Ok this is the chapter 2 of the story I’m writing, hope you like it!

Who Killed Sandy?

Chapter 2 – Why, Why Did You Leave Me?

Dear Diary,

I guess I’ll be writing in you more now. In memory of Sandy and because I don’t have anyone else to talk to anyway. Why did Sandy leave me? I guess it’s not her fault. But I don’t even know who to blame. Maybe, maybe it’s me. If I hadn’t left her alone… I called the police as soon as I saw the sight. The hospital couldn’t save her. It was too late. Just too late.

-Lorraine

Suddenly, Lorraine hears a knock on the door. Half-hoping that it’s Sandy, she opens the door. A man in a brown suit is at the door. “Hello ma’am. Are you Lorraine Miller?” he asks.

“Yes, who are you? Please hurry up.”

“I’m Detective Matthews, but you can call me John, and I’m here to investigate about the death of Sandy Rudyard. “

“Oh. Please help, please do. I want to find the bastard who killed Sandy!”

“Yes ok, but first, let me check the site.”

“Ok.”

John makes his way in and checks the site. After some time, “Hmm… This was a well planned out murder. I can’t find any clues.”

“What really?! Please search harder! Can I search? Or else send someone else!”

“I’m sorry ma’am, but I’m the best detective in the department.”

“Please leave now Detective Matthews. I need to be alone.”

“Ok ma’am.”

Dear Diary,

The bastard who killed Sandy did not leave a single clue or trace. I don’t even know who to trust anymore. There may be some traces… But I can’t check. If I get caught, it’ll be worse. But, I want to do something… I’ll address myself as Lorrie from now onwards. In memory of Sandy.

-Lorrie

Lorraine slept yet another restless night.

Ok, hope you liked it! It was kinda short, but I want to end on a kind of suspenseful note(kinda).

~Renee

Who Killed Sandy?

Hey RC(Renee’s Corner duh!) fans!(that is if I have any XD) Anyway, I got inspired to start writing a story. I wanted to from before only I guess, but then that feeling got sparked by KS Blogs’ . Ok so I’m writing a mystery novel(maybe it’ll have pictures). So here we go, hope you’ll like it…

Who Killed Sandy?

Chapter 1 – If Only I Had Said Goodbye

Dear Diary,

You are a gift to me from Sandy, she’s my best friend, my roomate too. It’s almost like we’re sisters. I’m Lorraine, though Sandy calls me Lorrie. Sometimes I like that, sometimes I don’t.

-Lorrie

This was the first thing Lorraine, our protagonist wrote in her new diary, gifted to her by Sandy. Just after that, Sandy came into the apartment. “Hey Lorrie! How was your day?” she asked. “Boring as usual, but at least I got to do something because of your gift.” said Lorrie.

“Well, at least that diary is of some use to you! When I had given Sally a diary, she downright rejected it!” Sally was Sandy’s younger sister.

“Haha, yeah, I remember that. How was work?”

“I guess it was ok. Hey, you have to give your share of the apartment’s rent, remember?”

“Sandy. You know I lost my job two weeks ago. Do I have to?”

“Yes Lorrie, you have to. Even when you had your job, I had to pay our both’s rent.”

“But Sandy!”

“No buts Lorraine! This keeps on getting worse and worse!”

Thunder in the sky. It starts raining.

“Ugh! Forget it!” says Lorraine and storms out of the house.

Lorraine is running in the rain and goes to a bar.

“What would you like?” says the bartender.

“A beer please.” says Lorraine. After chugging it down, she goes to a motel and stays there for the night.

The next day, she decides to go back and apologise to Sandy.

Just outside the apartment, she sees an unknown van driving away. She goes in the house, to see a horrifying sight. Sandy is lying in her bed, surrounded by blood, with a knife stabbed into her body. Lorraine lets out a bloodcurling scream.

Yeah that’s it for now. Hope you’re interested and I hope it’s not too gory. I tried to make it as less disgusting as possible XD. Next chapter coming soon. Also, please comment your questions on my Q ‘n’ A post!

My Grandmother’s Birthday Cake!

Today was my grandmother’s birthday, so we made two cakes!

This was the first one, it was very chocolatey. It had chocolate cake, chocolate ganache and chocolates as toppings!

Mother in Marathi has been written on the cake.

This is a plum cake with melted white chocolate and cherries as toppings. It was much healthier than the chocolate one.

So do please comment which cake you would prefer! Also, I preferred the chocolatey cake XD.
