Cops

They came to her neighbor's house the other night. They waited a total of :24 before knocking down the door and discovering the couple inside on the floor in a pool of water. Set up for the party that was supposed to start around 11 pm. They shot them in the heads anyway. Pushed them down in the water to make it look like drowning, then dragged their bodies to the back yard, lit up the entire 12th avenue block while they dug. A patrol passed by the alley, got out, asked if they needed any help and moved on. Actually stopped a guy who ran a stop sign three blocks away. By 12 am, the hole was dug, the door still stood open broken, the pool gushed down into the basement and the first guests arrived. Cops held up the badges, took them all down town for tresspassing and held them the next 48 hours without legal representation or charges then released them en masse without a word of explanation. That girl? A guy she started with on her first day at the office, Jhonny, was looking into her window stalking her like he does every night waiting for that .5 second glance when she walked back from the bathroom to her bedroom. Sometimes the towel was there. Sometimes it wasn't. But always he waited inside his apartment with the 250mm telescope aimed right there.
