Bursted!

Two hours later, Fred regained his consciousness and looked around wondering where he could be, the last thing he remembered was that he opened the door to two people he doesn't know and could hardly recognize, he looked around and found himself in a cell, 'How the heck did I get here?', he asked himself. "Hello!", he called out, " Anyone there?", he asked. "Oh yes, there is someone here", Sam voice echoed in the hallway, " We're two", he said again. "Then help me out of here", Fred said with disgust evident on his voice. " I definitely will but you have to follow me somewhere", Sam said, "Of course, I will, just help me out of here", Fred said without thinking. " You didn't even ask me where?", Sam said and Fred replied, "I don't care, I'd go anywhere, just let me out".

Sam opened the door to the cell and immediately handcuffed him which made Fred extremely surprised that he was confused and was forced to talk, " What is all this about? I said help me out and not handcuff me ", he complained. " But you said you'll go anywhere with me?", Sam countered. "Where exactly is the place and where the heck am I ?", Fred asked looking around. " Oh that, pardon me for not informing you. This place is a police station, you're in the Melbourne Police Station and I'm detective Sam Brown", Sam briefed him. "What exactly am I doing here?", Fred asked. " That too, I'll let you know when we get to our destination, Mr Fred Stephen", Sam said as his expression turned serious. Fred refused to move as he was scared of where Sam was taking him, he decided to act smart by punching Sam in the face but Sam couldn't dodge it fully as the punch landed on his nose, he staggered back a bit and scoffed, cleaning the blood dripping from his nose, "That really wasn't expected, Fred. Wanna escape?", Sam asked, " Yeah, I don't ever want to get in the way of police officers. I hate them all", Fred shouted. "So you're guilty, huh?", Sam asked again. He reasoned as to what he could have done for him to be arrested by police officers then he remembered three things; he's involved in drug trafficking, molestation of ladies and... Hailey!!!. Yes, it could be Hailey because he made a rash decision of going after Stone's men who wanted her too. He had only slapped her when she slumped before he stabbed her and ran away, leaving her in the cold weather not minding if she were dead or alive. " Yeah, I'm guilty", he answered Sam. "Remember whatever you say will be used against you in the court of law", Sam grinned bringing out a small recorder from his breast pocket before he forcefully dragged Fred to the questioning room, Emily attended to his nose bleed and dressed the small cut on his nose.

" Fred Stephen, what are you guilty about?", Sam asked when they finally settled down but Fred refused to speak. "Okay, what is your relationship with Hailey Harvey?", Sam asked as he stared into Fred's eyes intently causing Fred to start feeling discomfort. " She's my girlfriend?", Fred finally talked. "What can you tell us about her?", Sam asked. " She's a very romantic person, cool tempered, sweet, hardworking and considerate. She's understanding. I love her, she's the best girlfriend I ever had and I want to get married to her. She's the best girlfriend to the end", Fred said from his heart. "Was she ever rude or aggressive or short tempered?", Sam questioned. " Nope, she's never short tempered and she's literally an angel", he replied.

"Okay, I'll be back in a second", Sam said, placing the recorder under the table, he left the room leaving Emily with him. " Hey pretty girl", Fred turned to Emily with a flirty smile which Emily returned, "How can I help you handsome?", Emily played along with. " Wanna make you my woman", he said as he couldn't resist Emily's beauty ever since he stepped into the room. "What about Hailey? Won't she get mad?", Emily asked purposely. " She's gone, she can't do shit", Fred said and Sam entered. Fred asked Sam, "When will I be released? I've got a shawty I wanna see", Sam smirked, " There's more questioning, young man. Be patient". "Alrighty then, bring it on", Fred said, relaxed on the chair and winked at Emily.

" On the 7th of January was Hailey's birthday?", Sam asked and Fred nodded, he continued, "What did you gift her?", " I took her out on a date and gave her a big teddy... She's a fan of teddy bears", Fred replied. "What else did you do that day?", Sam questioned further. " I dropped her at her home afterwards", Fred lied. "Do you do drugs?", Sam asked and Fred denied it fervently. Sam scoffed and continued, " On the 17th of January, Hailey came to your place after work, what did she do?", Fred rolled his eyes and said, "I can't remember vividly though but what happened was that she met me with a lady I was in a romantic mood with and in anger, she smashed a bottle of beer on Kayla's head and she passed out, I had to rush her to the hospital, if not Kayla would've died. I even threatened to break up with her but she begged me not to leave her alone because she was madly in love with me", he lied and Sam chuckled.

" You said Hailey was never aggressive and she was always cool despite the situation", Sam confronted him by using his words against him. Fred widen his eyes and tried to talk but kept stammering, "I did.. Its not like... She's hot tempered and crazy in the head too", but all fell to Sam's deaf ears.

" When last did you see her?", Sam questioned and Fred said, "I saw her last on one Thursday that she met up with her ex and I tried to confront her but she got worked up immediately and I left her alone out of anger", he lied again.

" You're bursted, Fred Stephen and you'll be kept behind bars till we see her", Sam said and walked out with Emily.
