Double death

 

Everything began when I was in my garden with my father. It snowed. We heard my uncle shout. In fact he had found my mother dead in her room.We all quickly went in her room and she was lying on the floor.

She had been killed with a china vase. I was shocked by this crime scene. I thought that it was better and necessary to lock the door to wait for the policeman. But it snowed and the policeman couldn’t move outside.

Thus the murderer was in the house. We were five men in the house, my father and his best friend, my brother, my uncle and me. Since the culprit was one of us, I began to lead my investigation. I asked the alibi of all in the house.

 

My father answered:  “I slept about 11 p.m. and I woke up this morning at 9 p.m. I did not sleep with your mother because I’m sick.”

 

His best friend answered: “I arrived at your home at 2 a.m., my plane was late. But when I arrived, there was noise in the room of your mother.”

 

The other members of my family had been sleeping.

The hours passed and the culprit was always free. Nobody was sad of mom’s death except me. Surprisingly my father and my uncle were happy, they stole all which belonged to my mother and got ready to run away. My little brother made a confession. He said that mom’s death was a masquerade.

In fact, he had staged mom’s death to prove her that the men who surrounded her were good for nothing. My brother opened the door of the room of my mother and she was not dead, she was alive. But seeing the behavior which the members of the family had had, she took a gun and shot herself because she was so sad.
