Four and a half days (RR 96.4)
By Loony123tunes
I was the dreaded Friday night after I had finished work and I was in my local pub, the Blue Boar Inn. There I sat in my normal place drowning my sorrows. Looking at yet another boring weekend. Wondering what to do. Go for a walk, a Cricket match. I love the game. Or go to the Dog track. It might cheer me up a bit. Or will I do what I did last weekend and all the other weekends before? Get drunk?
I have been in this hole now for six months. Sorry, it was twelve months when I found out the truth about my wife.
Yes, I am divorced, and she was cheating for four solid months. She was screwing her friend's husband. And now they are divorced. I don't think she gave a shit about me, but I wasn't sure what he thought about his wife.
Sorry, my name is James Turner and my ex-name is Mary. The bloke she was screwing his name was Tom Blake and his ex-wife's name is Jane. A month after the divorce went through Mary and Tom Blake were married.
Jane, his wife, had moved back home somewhere on the coast. Jane was a great girl. If I had met her before Mary, I thought we would have been married. Her shape was better than Mary's and many times in the past I would have bedded her. If I had got half the chance. She wanted to put some distance between the cheating bastards. Who could not blame her?
There was one thing in my favour. The house was rented and we had no kids but we were planning to have a family this year before the divorce.
Fred, the bartender, came over to me asking if I wanted to talk for a while with another drink. I had had enough of talking in the last twelve months. I had to get out of this rut in my life one way or another.
I drank the last of my beer, went to the loo and was heading down the road to my café. That was somewhere to eat that's all it was to me. To save me from trying my hand at cooking. I had curry and rice and washed it down with a beer. While I was heading home. Ha, that's a laugh, a one-bedroom crummy flat. I wanted to keep my money for the girl of my dreams if I was ever going to find one.
I had only a ten-minute walk home and I was in no hurry. Couples going past me in both directions laughing and giggling to one another. I envied them because they wanted to get home and into bed for their excitement for the rest of the night.
I heard a scream inside this house as I was walking past. I stopped and looked at the house. Nobody else was on the road. I saw a man stabbing a woman. Then he came out running and bumped into me. I got a good look at him. Then he ran down the road. I ran into the house. When I got to her, she took her last breath.
I rang the police and told them I had just seen a murder. I gave them the address. They said, "Don't touch anything in the house." I sat down looking at this poor woman until the police arrived.
The police arrived. It was patrol officers, a sergeant, and a policewoman. They looked at the poor dead woman then at me and then sent for the police detectives. The policewoman told me to come with her into the other room. I got up and walked into the other room like a zombie and sat down.
The sergeant and the policewoman did not ask me anything. They waited for the police detectives to arrive. When the detectives arrived, I was asked lots and lots of questions ranging from my date of birth to where I worked. And one question they kept on asking me was whether I was married or not. I told them everything. Including my divorce from my ex-wife Mary. And a month after the divorce she married Tom Blake, the man she was screwing. And that he divorced his wife, Jane.
I told them I was having two drinks in the Blue Boar Inn. Fred, the bartender, can tell them I was there, Then I left to go to the café for something to eat. I had curry and rice and washed it down with a beer. They will remember that I eat there all the time. Question after question kept coming at me. I got the feeling they thought I had killed the woman.
They asked me if I could recognize the man. I said, "Find him I will recognize him." I told them the woman should not have been stabbed regardless of what she had done. The police let me go, but I had to go to the police station to make a formal statement in the morning. It was one am in the morning when I went home. I was in the police station for ten thirty. We went over it all again twice. I signed my statement and left the heading for the Blue Boar Inn.
The police asked me to come back on Monday. I told them I had to go to work. They told me they would be at my place of work on Monday at eight am my start time. To inform my employer I was helping them with their enquiries.
I was in a room with four officers. I did a photo sketch of the man. The biggest pile of photo books was in front of me. I had to look through all these books to see if the man was in one of them. I did not know how many bad guys lived in the city. At the end of the day, I did not want to look at another photo for the rest of my life.
The rest of the week the photo sketch of the man and his description was on the TV and in all the newspapers. Nobody came forward after a month so the police must have expected he had gone into hiding or left the city. I went back to my old boring routine work, eating and drinking.
Then for some unknown reason, I started to think about my ex-wife Mary. And Tom Blake, the cheating bastard who in a sense had robbed me of my wife.
Why did she want him?
What did he have I didn't have?
Has he got loads of money?
Is he better-looking than me?
He must be better than me in bed.
Or does he have a great big thing hanging between his legs well I knew that was false.
I cast my mind back to the months before when a friend told me he thought there was something going on behind my back. I told him my Mary would never ever cheat on me because we were so much in love. Well, I could not have been more fucking wrong. But in the following days, I noticed things had changed between us. They were only little things but they all mounted up.
I did all the usual things and found a PD I wanted hard proof. I got all the info two weeks after I hired the PD. He had photos and recordings of them in a hotel room one mile from home. Well, I got this far, so I will tell you one or two things but not in any detail.
She was standing up naked with her legs spread apart pointing to her shaved twat. That meant to me come on and fuck me. I was staring at her tits. They were once all mine but not anymore. Photos of him naked waving his cock about as though he had a monster between his legs. He also had a bit of a belly.
He was smaller than me, at least I had eight and a half inches to be proud of. He was at best six inches long, maybe a bit bigger but not much. All I could think of was that he must be better in bed than me. Or he must have lots of money? He was no oil painting that was for sure. So, Mary was chasing money.
I watched the recordings. Mary liked it doggie style; he could only manage it twice and then he was all done. As for myself three times and on a good night four times before I was spent. Most recordings were the same once or twice he had a blowjob and Mary got an oral. In every recording, Mary did not let out screams but he did. When I was making love with her in the past Mary would let out screams. And I mean loud screams. Anyhow I won't bore you with any more of what they were doing but he had something where I didn't.
I had all the info for a divorce, so I did the same old thing thousands of others have done. Find a lawyer. See the bank accounts. Have the papers been served? Wait for us to talk to each other. You know the expression (We need to talk.) You know how it goes so I will skip the cross-talk.
Mary, I must say, did have a little feeling for me because she used to ring me once a week to make sure I was OK or not. But a month ago she stopped phoning me. I thought she was having trouble with Tom Blake. I had to make sure she was ok. I still loved her even though she had been cheating on me. I went round to Tom Blake's. It was nearly half seven pm. I was walking up the path and in the window was a man. I recognized him as the killer. Why is he here in Tom Blake's house? God Mary is in there he is holding Tom Blake and Mary against their will. That's why she has not rung me in weeks. I was thinking to myself.
I stopped and looked around several times as though I was at the wrong house. Turned around and went to the bottom of the path. Looking around to make it seem I was at the wrong house. He was still in the window. I did a double-take on him.
I went straight to the police station. Asking for the detectives. I told them I had seen the man who did the killing and the address he was at. I also told them there was a possibility that my ex-wife Mary and her husband Tom Blake could be held as captives by him. Please be careful.
The police wasted no time. A dozen police were at the house. They knocked at the door and Tom Blake answered. The police walked in straight past him. Mary and this man were sitting drinking a glass of wine and watching TV. The man jumped up and was heading for the back door. It was no use if they were waiting for him.
They slammed him down on the ground and handcuffed him. Then marched off to a police car. Bringing him back to the station. It was now nine and the police wanted me to indemnify him as the killer. They asked the men passing by if they would please take part in a lineup. Ten of them did so. There they were in a straight line. I walked up and down the line twice. I pointed out the killer. The police thanked the men, and they left.
