SEASON FINALE
At night, Peter appeared early at Scott’s party. The host himself welcomed Peter in front of the house:
- Hey, man, you’re friend of Joseph’s, aren’t you?
- Yeah, you’re Scott, right?
- Yep, be welcome! – Said Scott, I think your friends are in the leaving room!
- Thanks! – Said Peter, entering the house and going to the leaving room where he found Jane, Bill and Beatrice.
- Hey, Peter! – Said Beatrice.
- Hi! – Said Peter, uncomfortable. – Where are the others?
- I don’t know… – Said Jane. – I just know that Alice has just arrived!
Peter turned around and saw Alice reaching the living room. She was a new student in their classroom, as well as Bill, but she was not foreigner, she had studied geography during one year and decided to change. As well as Bill, she usually was alone, writing her papers and studying by herself.
- Hi, Alice! – Said Peter. – Is there anyone upstairs?
- I don’t think so! – Answered Bill.
- Great! – Peter said, walking up the stairs, as the others looked at him, confused. Peter did not have any time by himself to think about David and the gun and now he had to deal with the stranger that invaded Tina’s house. He could not get out of his mind the idea that those events were related to Nancy’s death. Some minutes later, Peter walked down the stairs and noticed that Scott’s place was crowded and Jane, Bill, Beatrice and Alice were not in the living room anymore. Peter walked around the house and the first known person he met was David, entering the house.
- Hi, Peter! – Said David.
- Hi! – Peter answered seriously, he thought about their first semester at the university, when David had the idea of creating a committee for the students to organize their parties, taking decisions for the whole class also concerning academic issues. When they decided to vote for a leader of the committee, Peter won, to David frustration, and although Peter agreed to listen to everybody’s opinion, David chose to stay away from him and from the entire group.
- Enjoying the party, Peter? – Asked David.
- Not anymore! – Peter replied. – Are you shooting a movie, David?
- Yes, I am. – Said David, surprised.
- Nice to know… – Said Peter, but he was interrupted by Monica, who came from the kitchen.
- Hey, David, about time! – She said. – Aren’t you going to eat?
- I have already eaten. – David responded and left.
- Have you seen Diego? – Asked Monica.
- I think he is busy, talking to Alice upstairs! – Said Peter. Monica ran up the stairs immediately.
A few minutes later, Peter saw Beatrice talking to Karl at Scott’s backyard; Joseph and Scott itself were close to them. Joseph came and passed by Peter’s side:
- Beatrice seemed upset; she bets you’ve been hiding something! – Joseph said, as he passed.
Peter did not understand that, as far as he knew, Joseph was not supposed to know anything more than Beatrice concerning Nancy’s death, why would he say that?
- How do you know about Nancy? – Asked Peter.
- Who said I was talking about Nancy? – Questioned Joseph, already leaving.
Peter was too confused, and the fact that his cell phone rang did not help it:
- Hello? – He answered.
- Hi, Peter, it’s Robert!
- What’s up? – Asked Peter. He was able to listen to somebody crying on the phone.
- It’s was Tina. They called from St. James Hospital. They found her lying on the street!
- God, what happened, Robert, is Leah ok?
- Yeah, she is here. Well, they don’t know, it seemed Tina was poisoned!
- Oh, no! I’m… I’m going straight to the hospital! See you there! – Said Peter, turning off the phone.
As soon as Peter left Scott’s house, he saw somebody hiding among trees, a guy who looked like Mathew. So Peter thought he should talk to him quickly about Nancy’s bank account. As he walked to the trees, he noticed Jane and Daniel discussing, but then he missed the person among the trees. When Peter reached the place, he did not find Mathew or anybody else, but suddenly he felt a strong pain on his head. Somebody knocked Peter out and he fell on the floor, unconscious.
