Feeling a mixture of frustration and helplessness, Jason decided it was time to leave. He walked slowly out of the church, his mind a whirlpool of thoughts and emotions. As he made his way home, his thoughts kept drifting back to Officer Calvin. There was something about Calvin’s behavior that nagged at him, a subtle yet unmistakable flicker in his eyes that Jason couldn’t dismiss. Was Calvin hiding something? Did he know more than he let on?
With every step, Jason’s mind replayed the events of the past summer. The secrets he had stumbled upon then, seemed now to be pieces of a puzzle that he couldn’t quite put together. Doubt clouded his thoughts, and he couldn’t shake off the worry that had rooted itself deep within him. The more he thought about it, the more he realized that these secrets might hold the key to understanding what really happened to his father.
