"Oh! no you didn't," Isabel screamed goggling at me.

"Yeah, I did and you know it wasn't that hard," I said drinking my cappuccino as my friends stared at me.

"Gosh, Liza I wouldn't do that if I were you," Samantha said looking at me as if I was an alien.

"Which is why you can't be her,"  Amanda said checking out a guy at the bar.

"No, I'm just saying, it's a rude thing to say to a guy, you know?" Samantha said while eating a piece of pie we ordered.

"Well, I was just honest, which isn't bad, right?" I said looking at my friends for support.

"Of course, you were honest and that's what matters. You guys check out that guy over there. I think he's checking me out," Amanda said smiling.

"I've gotta go, don't want to be late for work  if I wanna make partners,"Isabel said as she pecked us, waved goodbye and walked out the restaurant.

"I'm just gonna say hello to that guy over there," said Amanda as she went over to the guy at the bar.

"You go girl," chuckled Samantha while standing up."I have to go, bye dear."

"Bye," I said.

As I looked around and remembered the conversation we just had, I felt happy to have friends who were there to support me in every decision I made liked or not liked they always spoke their mind. And today was the day I needed their support more than ever cause the decision I made was a hard one.

I broke up with the guy I had been dating for almost a year because his dick was small for me which I told my friends the day I slept with him,{Ricky} they all laughed except from Samantha who was dumbfounded.

I actually pitied him because he was a sweet, nice guy,who I actually liked but my love just wasn't strong enough to ignore the small dick[which is excatly what Amanda said].

I picked up my purse and payed for the lunch and headed straight home to complete the novel I was writing, which had a deadline that was in three weeks and I hadn't even started chapter five.

As I walked home (which wasn't far from the cafe we had lunch) I felt the summer breeze touch my face and I smiled as I remembered when Rick and I went to the park last summer as I was still smiling,a couple looked at me and smiled I smiled back because I had the impression that they thought I was smiling because of them.

As I reached my apartment, I got the feeling that something was off and as I looked at my door I knew excatly what was wrong, my front door was open and the knob was broken, I brought out my pepper spray that I always carried around with me and walked into my apartment, what I saw made the hairs at my back stand at alert.

My house was in a mess,it was turned upside down,in and out, I started looking for things that might have been stolen but to my utmost surprise nothing seemed off, I brought out my cellphone and called 911.

"9-1-1, what's your emergency?" the 911 dispatcher asked.

"Someone just vandalised my house," I said pretty shaken up.

"By vandalised ma'am, do you mean robbed?"

"No, nothing seems off but it looks like someone was looking for something."

"Okay, please just stay in the house, detectives are on their way and please lock your doors."

"Okay, thanks," I said hanging the call, immediately I locked the doors I  called Samantha told her what happened and she said she was on her way.

Some minutes later, my door bell rang, I checked the peephole and saw two detectives.

Immediately, I opened the door,I saw them staring at me.

"Can we come in?" the detective with moustache asked.

"Of course. Please do," I said.

"Woah, this is one big robbery," the moustache detective said looking around the house.

"It's not a robbery," I said looking at them.

"It's not?"

I shook my head at him,"nothing was stolen."

"Then why the waste of time," the younger detective said looking at me.

"My home has been broken into and ransacked and your asking me,why the waste of time?" I asked screaming at him.

"Don't mind him,he's just not in a good mood today," the moustache detective told me.

"I can see," I said glaring at the handsome young detective.

Immediately, my door swung open and Samantha came running in.

"Liza,are you okay?" Samantha asked clearly not aware of the detectives.

"Yeah,am alright but my house isn't," I said as she hugged me.

Samantha let go me and turned to see the two detectives looking at us, clearly wondering who she was and her wondering who they were.

"Sam, this are the detectives that came to find out what happened. Sam this is detective ....," I said pausing, shocked I didn't even know their names.

"I'm Detective Vaughn Rodrick and my partner Detective John Travis," Detective Vaughn Rodrick the one with moustache told us extending his hand to us for a handshake.

Detective Vaughn Rodrick was a chubby fifty four years old man with screaming silver blue eyes and pointed nose,he had lips that looked like he was thinking about something mischievous when he smiled with a black faint moustache.

"Okay,so if this isn't a robbery,then it means either someone is looking for something or sending a message, like a warning or something," detective John Travis said looking at me.

"I don't think she has something that someone will want desperately and what will the person be warning her about?" Samantha asked looking at the three of us.

I was so confused and shocked I didn't know when I sat down on my couch.

"Do you have any enemies or someone who you pissed off lately, Miss Elizabeth Owen?" asked detective John Travis staring at me.

"Oh, come on. Isn't there always someone who is your enemy or who has been pissed off by you one way or the other?" I asked feeling irritated at the guy.

"Yeah, but.....," detective John Travis said but rudely interrupted.

"But nothing, okay? You both are going to find the person who did this to my house because it's your job. I know I made myself clear," I said as I strolled towards the kitchen to get a glass of water.

I turned around and saw Samantha, looking at me.

"Are you sure, you're okay?" concerned Samantha asked me.

"It's Ricky, who did this," I blurted out as tears welled up in my eyes.

"Ricky, your ex-boyfriend, are you sure?" She asked wrapping her arms around me.

" Yes, "I answered her saying the name that came to mind when detective John Travis asked who I offended.

"Why didn't you tell them?" she asked still hugging me.

"I don't know," I said but the truth was I was  not really sure if he was the one.

He surely was offended when I broke up with him this morning and he promised, he was gonna make me pay, maybe this was what he meant but something in my gut told me it was just the beginning.
