Bloody Love

Bloody Love(Episode 3)

Aunt Jasmine laid her down over the bed .She was still faint since last four days and burning with high fever. She was conscious for just a few breaks but fainted again after calling her family. Her eyes were tearing continuously even she was unconscious. Aunt Jasmine saw her with pain .She had witnessed the nervy room scene herself. Although Autopsy report estimated it as any beast’s maneuver but who was going to believe all these things in this era. The Police was suspicious about her. The police had investigated everything, from bad relations of her with her family to current situation. All circumstances were against her. The Police has estimated her as the killer, who murdered the whole family in anger, and then was in guilt and trauma after committing the crime.

“It is the truth that I have told you, Instead of slapping you can shoot me also, but truth is what I have told already. You can use your power and prove me guilty but make sure I must be sentenced to death.”She replied to a ruthless lady investigating officer after she was being slapped for the  fifth  time  for not speaking the truth. Many tears rolled down her eyes during this time but no one cared for.

“Hey! Just do not make dialogues here .You have to speak the truth and admit your crime “She again raised her hand to slap her but her hand was pendulated in air after hearing a staunch voice.

“Stop it! How much time I have warned you people not to torture the convicted on the basis of suspicion only?” A man said in low but grudging tone.Jean saw in front of her. There was standing a middle aged gentleman with in officer’s Police uniform, with face covered with beard. Lady was in a fix then.

“She is not going to speak the truth else of it!” The lady investigator tried to explain the situation. The Officer grouched at her and nodded her to leave. She left after shrugging the shoulders. Only two of them were left in investigation room.

“Look! I am Mr. Dennis. I have heard your statement. Would you please repeat it for me?”

She stared at him. His attitude was full of decency. With tears rolling down her eyes over her cheeks she repeated the whole story of that mid night. Mr. Dennis was and wise and well experienced person .He could only find the impression of truth on her face. He continued to gaze at her face for a while.

“Who will believe over such statement now days?” He spoke to her. She was quiet in response.

Then he added.

“But I strongly believe over what you have said, because, I myself have gone through such circumstances” She looked at him with swelled and red eyes in amazement over his disclosure. He nodded his head to confirm what he said.

“My whole family has gone through it, or still is going, you can say it. People don’t say anything in front of us but I know they call us a family of psychos. Our mansion is referred as institute of insane.”He smiled but his smile was full of anguish.

“I was almost nine years old when I saw a colossal Cat like creature, attacking and killing my paternal uncle. That Cat was same as you described it.” Jean was feared over the reminiscence of Cat.

“Police took my statement and they considered it as an aftermath of shock. They did not believe me. But all the horrible and odd voices of Cats were there always. My nephew was also killed in same way like your family. My niece has witnessed all this and she has lost her consciousness and mental stability. If she had made any fuss it was possible she might have been killed also. Five of our faithful servants have been killed one after the other in same way.Now; no one is ready to work at our home. This was the short story of mine and and my family.”

She was listening him all ears.

“This is the reason I believe in you .I am trying to get you out of all this. Appearantly, nothing has been proved against you, so, it is easy to handle now.”

Jean, who was listening him attentively, suddenly became dismayed over listening it.

“No need of all that sir! What has been left for me in outside world now? All of you have suffered because of such monster. You believed in me, this is enough for me. Otherwise I, myself was going to doubt either I have did that.” She was at the peak of agitation.

“Everything has ended for me! My life is ruined. That monster has snatched everything from me. What I will do now? Where I will go now?”She was screeching hysterically.

Mr. Denis was looking at her. He was aware of her pain and situation as he himself had bore all that. He patted over his back to console her.

“Dear, you should not lose hope. There is always a ray of hope. Just be brave and patient. You have to find the path” He was trying to make her calm.

Case and proofs against Jean were not so strong .She was granted bail easily. She was free to go anywhere but where to go?She was not having any relative to stay with. Mr. Denis took her to his mansion despite of her refusal.

When Mr. Denis gathered his whole family in the hall and described the story of Jean, everyone was astonished.So,there were others in the world also who have become victim of that monster. All they were thinking same. One thing was quiet odd in the whole case that how that monster left Jean to live.As, it was evident that none of the person was escaped of them at time of his attack.
