Summary
Richard was shocked at the sight before him. He couldn't believe that he was seeing two Tracys. "I leave you for seven months with my husband and this is what you do? you ungrateful whore!" Emma was already in tears. "I tried calling. I had no idea what to do as I couldn't reach you." "Just shut up, you liar! you actually expect me to believe that bullsh*t."
Prologue
The restaurant was full with customers today. Emma was having a hard time getting the orders correctly without getting it all mixed up.
She gave the orders to Eric, who was in charge of the kitchen, before finding someplace to rest for a while.
"Looks like someone's all work up today." Sarah said as she walked up to Emma.
She has been friends with Emma for almost a year and half.
'tell me about it." Emma replied, wiping off beads of sweat on her face.
"It seems like everyone decided to eat out today, all of a sudden." Emma complained
"At least, it's best for business." Sarah comforted, making them let out a chuckle.
They both suddenly started to hear the sound of sirens, making them turn their heads to the direction of the window.
"It's the cops."
"I wonder what they"re up about this time?" Sarah said
"Why don't we go check it out?"
They walked back into the restaurant and saw two policemen walk into the restaurant, asking their fellow colleague for someone, but they couldn't hear who it was because of distance. Their manager then came out to meet the police men.
As they talked, their manger pointed towards the direction of Emma and Sarah. They were both shocked, wondering why they were being pointed at.
The officers thanked the manager before walking up to them.
"Good day. Are you Emma Russell?" one of the officers asked for either of them to reply.
"I am. How may I help you?" Emma spoke up
"A Mercedes was hit by a truck about an hour ago and on identifying the victims of the accident, we found their phones and ID with their names on it. We looked through the contacts on their phones and came across a text which you sent earlier, wishing they had a safe trip. So, being the last person who contacted them and seeing you have the same surname as theirs, we realized you are a relative."
Emma was already in tears, as she struggled to believe what the officer just said about her family being in an accident.
"Officer, what are you trying to say?" she nervously asked
'the couple died on the spot, but the boy survived and was being rushed to the hospital, he's in critical condition. We are sorry ma'am."
Emma couldn't believe her ears, as her body was already failing her. She could hardly hear what the police officers kept saying nor anyone else, as darkness was the only thing that she saw.
