Kali's pov

We reached the house that the GPS lead us to and I pulled the glove box grabbing something that I never thought I'd use again, I only used it once to get out of a speeding ticket which was very funny. A police badge, I stared at the silver badge in my hand and smiled. I heard Avah chuckle but stopped when I glared at her. She stared at the badge amused, and then back at me.

"Just stay here" I said annoyed, she gave me an alright look and I got out the car. I went to the front door and knocked, a few seconds later a man with a white beard and balding hair opened the door.

"May I help you?" He said looking around, good thing I parked a few meters away and he wasn't able to see Avah in the car. I am also thankful for always wearing a suit it makes the police thing more believable.

"Hello sir, I'm Detective Martin and I'm looking for Mr Rogers" I said in all seriousness while showing him my badge, he stared at the badge for a second and his face paled a bit.

"This is he" he finally replied,

"May I come in?" I asked, surely he let me inside the house. Walking in I looked around, everything was messy and had a weird smell. When was the last time this place was cleaned.

"What's the matter detective?" He asked, then mentioned for me to sit.

"Sorry about this, my granddaughter can be very messy sometimes" he chuckled and picked up the empty beer bottles. His granddaughter drinks, that was a very bad lie.

"Yes, that's why I'm here. Your granddaughter has been reported at school to be having, few bruises and acting weird with other classmates. Would you like to tell me about that?" I asked him, his smile dropped and I could see he started sweating intensely without realizing. Which means that I am indeed right, he's been hurting her and he's scared he's gonna get caught.

"What? Really? I had no idea, I promise. She's a good girl, she's never been into fights. I don't know how she'd get bruises" he said shifting weights from leg to leg, he put his hand on his face and started tapping his foot on the ground. A sign of anxiety, he's hiding something.

"Yeah, that's very common kids are really good at hidden stuff" I chuckled trying to get him to trust me, he laughed and sat on the couch to face me.

"That's true" he laughed, making himself comfortable on the couch.

"Can I see her?" I asked, his smile dropped quickly just stayed silent probably thinking of another lie. He was about to speak when a little girl walked from behind the couch he was sitting on and just stood there.

"Hello there little girl" I said with a reassuring smile, she had long black hair it was very messy and it looked like it hasn't been brushed in a while. She looked between the age of 4 and 6, she stared at me and back at her grandpa.

"My name is Detective Martin and I'm here to check on you. Can you come closer sweetheart?" She looked at him again and he nodded, she hesitantly walked closer to me and stood a couple of feet away.

"Mr Rogers can you give us a moment please" I told him, he sighed and nodded going to the other room.

"Hello Nadine, you have your mom's beautiful eyes" I said with a soft smile, she gave me a toothy smile and she started blushing.

"How old are you sweetheart?" I asked fixing her shirt, it was dirty with food spots and mud. She pulled out her fingers and started counting, then she pulled out four fingers.

"Four?" I asked, she nodded her head cutely.

"Oh you're a big girl aren't you" she giggled, she came closer and leaned on my leg. Now that I've gained her trust, I need to get her out of here.

"Okay Nadine, your mom is right outside. I'm here to help you okay, I need you to tell me if your grandpa has ever done anything bad to you" I asked her hurriedly, she looked behind her to check if he was there and when she saw he wasn't there. She pulled up her shorts and she had bruises on her little legs.

"He sometimes takes pictures of me" she said in a small voice, I felt my heart stop when I heard what she said. I swallowed my saliva and asked her to come closer.

"What do you mean honey?" I asked in a whisper, she pointed to her private parts.

I am...so going to kill him, I felt rage build up all over my body and I knew I shouldn't blow up in front of the kid. I quickly picked her up and ran outside the house and to the car, I opened the door and handed her to Avah. I heard his yells from inside the house. I gave her the keys and asked her to start the car and wait till I come back.

I pulled the gun out of my belt and barged back inside the house. He was standing in the middle of the room with his hands on his head. He turned to look at me and he found me pointing the gun to his head.

"You fucking bastard!" I yelled, I hit him in the face with the back of my gun and he fell to the ground holding his bleeding nose.

"You fucking pervert! You molested your own fucking granddaughter, she's four for fuck's sake! Four!" I hit his stomach, his legs, every spot on his body. All the anger I built up all these years, I let it out on him. His face was all beaten and unrecognizable, I pointed the gun to his crotch and watch his eyes widen in horror.

"See you in hell, motherfucker" I shot him in the dick, then pointed it at his head. A bullet between his eyes and he was gone, I put the gun back to my waist and ran out of the house and back to the car. Avah was in the driver's seat and her daughter was in the backseat.

"Drive!" I yelled when I opened the door. She pressed on the gas and we bolted out of that neighborhood. God that felt so good.

I got out of the car and Avah unbuckled her daughter from the backseat and took her inside my house. I followed after them, my suit was dirty and has blood on it and I had to change.

"Avah!" I called for her before she went to her room, she was holding her daughter's hand and had the biggest smile on her face. That made me feel something in my chest...

"I- well, you need to get her checked out" I said looking at Avah and then at her girl, she tilted her head to the side confused and mouthed why with her lips.

"She told me, he...ehm. Your dad, eh...took pictures of her" I stuttered out, it was hard for me to tell her that. I can't imagine how she feels, she put her hand over her mouth stunned at what I just said.

"So, I- I shot him" I explained why I went back inside the house, she looked at her innocent little girl in horror then picked her up hugging her so tight while crying her heart out. For the first time, I felt pity for Avah. I felt bad that she had to go through all of this by herself, I unconsciously took a step forward and wrapped my arms around her in comfort.

"Shhh....it's gonna be okay" I whispered while caressing her back which only made her cry harder. What am I supposed to do now, I'll for sure get arrested but that's an easy problem to get out of. The bigger problem is finding Brandon...
