The 7th of December
of 1999 was a gloomy day. It was raining and nobody went out of their homes.
Peter was a strange boy, he was 14 years old and he lived in California
That day as usual, Peter was
quiet. He only talked to his father and his best friend, who’s name was Jack.
Peter didn’t have good relationships with his class mates. He didn’t talk to
anyone, he was feeling sad. And he asked
´´San are you feeling ok? ´´
Joel asked
´´Yes dad…´´ Peter answered
crying
´´And why are you crying? ´´
Joel asked
´´Because when I was returning
home from school, I crashed with a post.´´ Peter answered
´´Are you sure, is there
anything you want to tell me? ´´ Joel asked again
´´No dad, I’m sure.´´ Peter
answered
After this conversation in
Peter’s shabby bedroom, Joel said to Peter that dinner was ready on the table.
Peter went to the kitchen, but he didn’t eat anything. Joel thought that he
didn’t have hungry because he was sad, so he didn’t say a word. They got up of
the chairs and they went to slept.
The other day, Joel woke Peter
up, and Peter continued being sad. Without a work; they entered the car, and
Joel left Peter at school. Joel went to work. However, he was worried so he calls
Jack to be sure that Peter was ok.
´´Hello Jack I am Peter’s
father, can you help me please? ´´ Joel said
´´Yes tell me, what is the
problem with Peter? ´´ Jack said
´´He is sad; he did not eat
anything at night and today too. Do you know what happened to him? ´´ Joel said
´´Ok, thanks for the
information, if anything you know about it, call me? ´´ Joel said
´´Yes sure! ´´ Jack said
There were 10:30 and Peter
didn’t come back from school. He used to come at 6 o’clock. Joel was waiting
for him at home with dinner ready, he was nervous; he didn’t know what happen
to him. He didn’t have any call, any message, nothing. Joel called Jack and
then he called the police, but both of them didn’t have news from Peter.
The police was trying to find Peter;
meanwhile Joel was searching for some clues. He entered to Peter’s bedroom and
he found his diary.
Joel opened it on the 6th
of December. And he found all the clues that he needed
