I looked over and over that list at least a hundred times and kept on making new theories. I now have over 30 theories written down in my journal. I wanted to go check out the sight today of Astrid's death. I was heading down there when I realized that the trail I was taking was the exact one we went walking on that day. My eyes started to swell up at the thought of it but I just brushed it away saying to myself, "not today."

When I got to the restrooms I noticed no new footprints except for the police officers boots from that day. The area was still surrounded by yellow police tape, probably for safety of the still sticking up pipe. I searched for any footprints I could. I found the struggle spot where Astrid must have fallen down and scraped up her hands. I looked around and found spots where something was brushed away very fast. It made a trail as if they were trying to get away.

I followed this trail to the sidewalk where they must have run away. But what this person didn't know was that they stepped in a mud spot from the sprinklers earlier that day and made a big footprint indent that dried. There it was. The footprint that murdered my best and only friend. It was quite huge and looked like a guy's boot.

This could be anybody's. What am I supposed to do with this? I take a good picture and go to investigate the rest of the sight. But when I searched, I found nothing else except for dried blood on the ground. Probably from Astrid. I thought. So I went home and wrote down more theories until I got a headache and went to sleep.
