Indirectly

I hailed a cab and headed to a market far away from home. Before leaving the house, I checked my clothing for any traces of blood. Fortunately, there was none, so I didn't need to waste any time changing.

As I sat in the cab, I glanced out of the window and noticed that the sun was still bright. So , I wasn't too concerned about the time. Even if that man didn't return for the night, his friends would likely assume he was occupied with Alyssa. It would take them a day or two to realize he had gone missing. 

I had a plan in place for such a scenario. But right now, my main focus was on disposing of the body.

Honestly, I was feeling terrible at that moment. I couldn't believe how careless I had been, and as a result, a man was dead. While he had attempted to harm Alyssa, it didn't change the fact that she had killed him.
