" Sometimes good things fall apart, so better things can fall together "                                       - Marilyn Monroe
I woke up on a sunny morning. My life isn't better like others. I always wake up saying ' it's just another shitty day '. My daughter meant the world to me. But I can't see her anymore. I woke up from the bed and went to the bathroom and washed my face. It's just another shitty  day for me. My wife broke up with me a few months ago. After that my life isn't normal. Well, I can't blame her. The fault is mine,partly. No, not partly, fully. I went downstairs and made myself a coffee. I switched on the tv. It was a suicide of a school girl. After my wife left with my child, I couldn't focus on my work. I tried to convince her but how can I after everything I did to her. That's the time when my house bell rang for the first time after my wife left me. I opened the door. It was my senior officer. He goes like ' it 's been six months since I met you'. I invited him in and made him a cup of coffee. He asked me to sit and said ' See, I can't back you up anymore. You have to come to the office. If anyone reports about your absence in the office then I can't do anything about it. I know that your wife left you and you can't focus on your work but how long will you take. The cases are still pending '.
Well it's easy for him to say, I'm the one who is suffering here. But I can't also hurt him anymore. He did best for me. I want to pay him back. So I asked ' What case do you have for me ? '. He smiled and said ' you saw the news right? About the suicide of a school girl? Well you have to investigate  it. I mean whether it is a murder or actually a suicide. There are other officers to check it but everyone should know that you're still working for us. So are you in this ? '. Well, what can I say, I mean what's there to think just write it as suicide what's there to ask to me . So I said ' I'm in '. I changed my dress and went to the crime scene with my senior. The place was in a mountain region. When I reached there and walked towards the crime scene. Everyone was staring at me. I reached the crime scene. The body was right in front of me. I checked the place. There is no suspicious thing. I checked her hand. There were no struggling. I was going to report it as a suicide. Well that's what I want. That's when I hated myself. I looked upwards. I saw a cliff like a thing. I asked what it is. They said that's where she jumped. So I went there. I spent like 20 minutes there. After checking up there, i went down.
My senior asked me ' What did you find ? Is there anything suspicious? Everything is clear right? Its a suicide right? '. And that's when i thought that not only me even my senior want it as a suicide. But it's not. ' Sir, it's not an suicide. But I can't tell you that it's an murder '. After saying this I can see his face that he was too shocked. Everyone on that site looked at me like an evil person. Since they want it as an suicide, and that's where I came in and turned it upside down. My senior asked ' Why did think that it's not an suicide? '. I replied ' Sir, everyone wanted it to be a suicide to avoid the headache. Hence they didn't check the place properly. When I went on the upside cliff, I saw a footprint that was placed on the edge of the cliff many times. That must be the victim's footprint. But I saw another footprint. It was bigger than the other footprint. I took a photo of it. I followed the footprint. Since it was raining some footprints were missing in some areas. when they walked to the cliff there was a two footprint and there were many stepping on the edge of the cliff. That's where the struggle happened and she fell down. This is just my theory. I can't say it for sure before the forensic research '. Everyone looked at me with so much anger. My senior said ' I really want it as a suicide so that this case will be out of my head. There are tons of pending cases. We need to finish this case as soon as possible  '. Well, I can understand his feelings. There is a saying to officers like us that ' some cases will change the person. It might be in a good way or in a bad way '. Maybe this case is like that. Till reaching here i was hoping like others, this case should be an suicide but after finding it out it's like I want to find the one who did this. And I will. So, I said ' Sir i will take the charge of this case. And one more request I don't want the media to know about the death of this girl. I can make sure that I will catch him in a few days. My guts say that this won't take that long '. My senior smiled at me and said ' You can take charge of this case. Good luck'. It's been a long time since I heard those words. It's like goosebumps to me. This case won't be a headache to me and I will catch him for sure. This will take me to meeting my daughter and my wife.
