I feel my hands shake as Detectives Sloan and Smith sit Nick and me down in an interrogation room together. Detective Smith sat a small cup of hot coffee in front of me with a soft sigh. “I’m so sorry, Katie… I know this whole situation is a lot to take in, but we are here to help… Now, let’s start from the very beginning of all of this…. How do you know Mr. Antonio Romano?”
I sigh and shake my head slowly. “I don’t… I don’t know him at all. The ones who do know him are Nick, Josh, and my dad. I mean, Uncle Rick knew him too, but Uncle Rick is now dead. I just… I don’t understand any of this. Why? Why is he after me? Why would he kidnap my parents? Why would he do any of this?”
“I don’t know dear, but what else can you tell me?” Detective Smith asks gently.
I shake my head and sigh.
