" Is this Mr. Rolson's house? Asked Christine.
" Yes," said a lady wearing a white frock from the other side of the house. She seemed very polite in her tone.
She opened the door, she was a very old woman with a soft voice.
"We are detectives working on the case. Your daughter apparently was the only survivor in a group of people. We have come to discuss certain things with her if she's comfortable " said Amyra.
" Oh yes sure come in," said the lady.
" Hii I am Anna's grandma. I am Tiffany Rolson "
" Hii I am Christine and this is Amyra," said Christine.
They entered their house, Anna was a girl of 10 years old. We were taken right into the house bedroom where she was playing with her dolls. She was talking to herself.
" Ever since we lost her mom, she doesn't really like coming out of her house. All she does is play games and talk to herself. She doesn't even sleep nowadays properly. She complains that every time she tries to sleep, a nightmare follows " said Tiffany.
" Is it okay if we talk to her now ?" Said Christine
" Yeah sure although I don't know if it's gonna be of great help," said Tiffany.
" umm, it's really embarrassing to ask but it would be highly appreciated if you could give us some privacy ?" Said, Amyra.
" Oh yes sure," said Tiffany.
She went through the living room and switched her TV on and started concentrating on it as if there are no strangers in her house right now.
Christine and Amyra entered the room and closed the door gradually. Both of them went up to her and sat quietly giving her enough time to grasp the situation. They didn't want to interrupt her game. So they waited till she became distracted.
Finally, after a minute or so, she became bored of playing the same game and shifted her focus to them. She examined their faces for a few seconds and finally decided to speak up.
" WHO are you people?" asked Anna
" I am Christine and this is Amyra," said Christine and then pointed towards Amyra.
" Do you remember the attack at the apartment ? " asked amyra
She looked a bit scared now. She shifted her focus entirely upon them. She looked at Amyra then Christine and lowered her head.
" It's okay if you don't want to say you don't have to," said Christine.
" I don't know entirely what I saw," said Anna.
" it's okay you don't have to forcefully remember," said Amyra.
" Anna?" asked Christine
" hmm?" said Anna
" Did you see anything unusual that night apart from those monsters ?" asked Christine.
" I came across a strange place while running from those monsters," said Anna.
" you're so smart. Now tell us what exactly did you see there ?" asked amyra.
" It was dark," said Amyra.
" Still anything at all?" asked Christine.
" It was like a long passageway with many rooms. It was really dark. I was starting to get scared so I tried to hide. I was hiding beside a closet when I saw someone. It was a man . " said Anna.
" Okay could you see the man ? " asked Christine.
" I couldn't see his face. But he was tall. He had black hair. He was wearing a jacket. I couldn't see what was written there. " said Anna.
" Anything more you want to add?" asked Christine and Amyra was writing them down.
" I don't remember anything else," said Anna.
" That's fine," said Amyra.
" Thank you so so much Anna. You are really brave and a sweetheart too. If you ever need anything, feel free to call us " said Christine.
Both of them stood up and were getting ready to leave. They both left Anna's room and went straight to Mrs. Tiffany.
" Was it of any help?" asked Tiffany.
" Oh yes ma'am," said Amyra.
" Anna is really strong. She saw a lot of things. She went through a lot. Please take care of her and if you need something, you have our number" said Christine.
Both of them left and were heading towards our car while discussing the next plans when suddenly a voice stopped them.
" Christine and Amyra " shouted Anna from her room window.
Both Christine and Amyra looked at her. They both smiled and asked her the reason for calling them.
" A tattoo," said Anna.
" Huh? " said Amyra.
" I meant he had a tattoo on his wrist," said Anna.
"What kind of a tattoo ?" asked Christine.
" I don't know that but it was definitely a tattoo," said Anna.
" Thank you so much once again, Anna," said Amyra.
" If you see that tattoo once again, will you be able to recognize it?" asked Christine.
Anna thought for a little and nodded a yes. They thanked her and went back inside their car and drove straight to our office for a meeting.
