Chapter 92 TV Remote
Jack, Cassie, and Nicole were watching the TV, listening to the news.
It was about the same murder that happened in Jack\'s previous apartment.
"There are still no clues..." Cassie sighed looking at the TV.
Nicole and Jack were also perplexed looking at the news.
Jack also felt that something was amiss about this whole situation.
"Turn the TV off, let\'s eat some food," Nicole said while standing up, she was fed up with the same news again and again.
Cassie nodded and taking the remote in her hand switched the TV off. She then placed the remote on the table.
Standing up she looked at Nicole. "What did you order today?" She asked with her eyes glimmering.
"Sushi." Nicole smiled seeing the excited expression on Cassie\'s face. "He must be outside." She said and looking at her phone and moving outside.
Jack looked at Nicole leaving and also stood up to get some beer from the fridge.
"Sushi is my favorite!" Cassie also smiled and moved beside Nicole to get the food.
Jack came back and placed the beer cans on the table, he looked at the main door and Cassie and Nicole still hasn\'t come back.
\'Let\'s watch some sports.\' Jack thought and moved his hand towards the table to pick up the TV remote.
However, he only grabbed thin air. He looked down with his eyes wide.
\'I was sure that Cassie placed the TV remote on the table.\' He looked around on the sofa to search for the remote, however, it was nowhere to be found.
\'Was I dreaming?\' He furrowed his brows, \'Where did she place the remote?\' He looked at the door again and saw that they still haven\'t come back.
\'Did it fall under the sofa?\' He thought and just when he was about to squat down to find the remote, his eyes suddenly landed on the polished white stairs of the mansion and his heart skipped a beat.
\'What is that?\' He could see a contrasting black object on the white stairs. Narrowing his eyes he focused on the object.
"How did it get there?" He stood rooted in his place as different thoughts started going through his mind.
\'Did Cassie accidentally place it over there? No that can\'t be the case! I saw her placing it down on the table.\' He slowly moved towards the stairs.
He then suddenly thought about the old man and how he suddenly disappeared in front of him.
He then looked around the room to see if anyone else was present there.
Gulping his saliva he picked up the remote and then looked around the stairs.
"Jack!"
As he was about to move up the stairs, he suddenly heard a high-pitched voice.
Just by the voice he identified that it was Nicole\'s voice.
"What happened?" Placing the remote back on the stairs he rushed toward the outside of the house where Nicole and Cassie went to pick up food.
Just as he reached the main gate he saw two people, they were none other than Cassie and Nicole.
In front of them stood a big Coyote baring its teeth.
Cassie had a stone in her hand as she was ready to throw it at the animal.
Nicole on the other hand had a few boxes in her hands, when she noticed Jack, she quickly moved behind him.
"This Coyote is trying to bite me!" She was panicking. Jack also noticed a scratch mark on her leg from where blood was dripping.
Jack looked at the animal as anger moved through his body.
The Coyote reached above his knees with brownish hairs and it looked at all of them while baring its canines.
Jack furrowed his brows. \'Coyotes don\'t usually attack humans.\' He moved forwards and came in front of Cassie.
"Move back." He said looking into her eyes.
"I will teach this fucker a lesson!" Cassie shouted in anger and threw the rock in her hand toward the Coyote.
"No..." Before Jack could say anything the stone already left Cassie\'s hands and landed on the animal.
He could tell that there was something wrong with the Coyote and it would not be a good decision to provoke it anymore.
However, he was already too late.
The Coyote slid on the ground with a squeal and then stood up back again, it then looked at Cassie with bloodshot eyes and then growled.
Jack took in a deep breath and moved Cassie back with his hands.
"Get back now!" He said and then looked at the incoming animal.
The Coyote jumped and ran towards Cassie with its eyes turning red.
Jack clenched his teeth and readied himself to kick the animal.
However, before he could do anything, Cassie moved away from him and picked up another stone from the ground, and then again, the stone flew out of her hand at a high speed and hit the Coyote in its head.
"Get out of the house bitch!" She stepped forwards and picked up another stone.
The Coyote on the other hand slid on the ground again and before it could get back up another stone hit its abdomen.
It squealed loudly and then ran away with its tail between its legs.
When Jack and Nicole saw the Coyote running away both of them looked at Cassie dumbfounded.
\'Why is she so violent?\' They were flabbergasted.
However, before the animal could cross the boundary, Cassie picked up another stone, and it hit again on the Coyote\'s leg, making it stumble and slid on the ground again.
"Ke...." The Coyote let out a hiss and then stood up and quickly ran away.
Cassie on the other had already picked up another stone.
"Wait, are you going to kill it?" Jack placed a hand on her shoulder and then he noticed her angry expression.
"Hmph! It won\'t dare to enter our house again! Stupid bitch!" It was only when the Coyote disappeared that she calmed down and looked at Jack.
Jack gulped his saliva listening to her. He then remembered the day when she ran after him with scissors.
\'I have to make sure that she doesn\'t get angry at me anymore.\' He thought and then looked at Nicole.
She was still bleeding from her legs.
