Wordle #1142 – LOWER
I go on.
“During their argument, Bree killed Roy in a fit of rage. But instead of turning herself in, Bree thought she could get away with murder. She dragged Roy’s body into their guest bathroom and hid it there for the time being. The next day, she pretended that Roy had gone missing.”
“None of this is true!” Bree yelps but then quickly lowers her voice before anyone can tell her to pipe down. “None of it…”
I hold back a smile, pleased to be under her skin already.
“Then, on October twenty-first, Bree asked me to come over because she said she was ‘concerned’ about Roy’s ‘disappearance.’ That’s why my fingerprints were found at their home, not because I ambushed Roy there before murdering him, as Bree claims.”
It’s not the most dramatic retelling of events, I’ll admit, but Virginia and Kaitlyn are hanging on my every word like I’m about to reveal what really happened to D.B. Cooper. Bree sullenly crosses her arms.
“Sometime later that night, Bree and Austin moved Roy’s body to Golden Gate Park, where it was discovered the next morning. After the police IDed the body, Bree came to my apartment, acting all distraught. She said that she needed a friend, but what she really needed was the opportunity to plant Roy’s belongings at my place to frame me for his murder.”
There. I’ve set the stage, now I have to maneuver Bree under the precariously dangling sandbag.
