Graslina’s view
This is the information that I gained in today morning.
“I heard that your son died around 6:52. Is it true?”
“Yes.”
“Do you have any suspects?”
“Yes.”
“Who is it?” The woman looked painful when she was answering this question.
“It’s hard to say, but it’s his brother...” Then, she showed the pictures of the two twins to Graslina. Graslina almost dropped her pen because in that picture, his boyfriend James was gazing at her. But she tried to act normal as she saw nothing. Still, she wasn’t able to hide her shaking fingers.
“Do you have anything wrong?” The woman asked.
“No, no., I’m fine. Did you contact him?”
“Well… not actually. Even if he weren’t the one, he wouldn’t answer me. He has a bad memory about me.”
“Can you tell me a bit more about his bad memory?”
“I don’t know if I’m allowed to say this, but actually, I had a divorce when my children were little. I had a lot of property, and I don’t want to say why but I preferred Little brother more than him, so I gave almost my property to him. After his graduation, he never met me. I don’t even know where he is right now.”
After I met her, I wasn’t able to concentrate well back on the case for a few hours. It was no doubt that all the pictures had the resembling two people but always one in better outfits and appearance. But because I know I’m not allowed to have any empathy or to be on the bias when I’m solving the case, so I decided to write down everything I know about suspects in a detective diary.
I remembered my first day in 12th grade when he and I first met. Our school was small, but it was our first time being in the same class. It may seem a bit weird, but we fall in love when we just first saw each other. We had similar hobbies and applied to the same university. James was a sweet boy. He had a talent for studying and memorizing stuff, but he had short-term memory loss, only on special occasions. He told me the reason is because of the trauma he had when he was young.
