I looked up from the newspaper, to see my Dad standing right in front of me. He was smiling but something about it seemed strained. Or maybe I was just imagining it because of the voice…1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHjScIqIfK

“Is everything all right, Amy?”1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiboixTQEa

“Yes…” I said mechanically. “It’s just…”1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6KvpnRPIU

I poured out the latest developments of the case, quite forgetting that my Dad must have read it already. He listened patiently with amused eyes, only speaking when I was done.1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3wYuYu5D0

“No…But the Inspector buys the theory.” I said, half angrily. “He said that there’s no doubt in his mind that Pinky had a role to play in this case. At least the newspaper says he said so.”1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhv4LGJPN3E

I looked at him, expecting him to comment but no. He simply turned away, a curiously blank expression on his face.1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7znCEcJTSK

“Are you worried about something?”1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWEHelc63T

He turned around swiftly. “Why do you ask that?”1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfAsrFBLBM

I was quite taken aback by the sharpness of his reponse. Too taken aback to formulate a reply. Although I did not want to admit it, I was scared too. Scared to think about the voice meant…Scared to think about the sudden change in my Dad’s attitude.1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTModH1ga3k

I smiled a little but I couldn’t help but notice the stiffness of his voice. Before I could ask anything else, he disappeared into his bedroom. He didn’t come out again till it was time to drive me to school.1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSKrot8WK2

Dad was unusually silent all the way. I opened my mouth various times to talk but…somehow I couldn't bring myself to. It was as if he had put up a wall around himself.1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7759Sn5YR7

I saw the police car parked outside the school just as Dad stopped the car by the gate. Standing next to it was a ferocious looking man with narrow bloodshot eyes. If he hadn’t been in police uniform I would have thought he was some sort of gangster. He looked straight at us when we got out. I saw him stiffen and his eyes, if that were even possible, narrowed.1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgCR3sE88g

I wanted to move away but Dad seemed rooted to the spot. His eyes were fixed on the policeman who was quickly making his way towards us.1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6ishWU7TP

“Tony…” The policeman glared at him. “Why are you here?”1024Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLbJs9N6Iq
