I received a call from Jim this
morning. He called to tell me that they had a new lead in the serial
rapist/murder case. Jim is Detective Jim
Anderson; in fact, he is the senior
detective for our City's police force. We have known each other for our entire
lives, and on occasion, we have enjoyed
each other's company on an intimate
basis. It has never been anywhere near a
permanent arrangement, although I am pretty sure that Jim would like it to be
so. The problem is with me, as I've never been able to understand my sexual desires fully, so I have never been willing
to make a full-time commitment.
It has been six months since Jasper
and Street Fighter found the bag of diamonds, which
the pack rats had stashed in the remains of a victim of the serial
rapist/murder, who had been raping and killing
women for the last five years, in and around the tri-state area. Jim has been worried about me ever since we
found the body, and he started working on the case. Jim
told me this morning that he was now part
of the multi-jurisdictional task force working on the case. He laughed when he said that since the press
hasn't tumbled onto the case yet, that the task force has dubbed whoever is
behind the rapes and murders as the Tri-State Fruitloop. I had to laugh myself, for my first thought
had been that "Serial Doesn't Start
with a C". I knew that Jim had called
because he does not want me to let my guard down regarding the rapist. Jim is
worried about me, because of the Tri-State
Fruitloop, and I can't fault his reason
for worry. Jim's concern stems from the
fact that I fit the description, almost to a tee, of every victim that has been attributed to whoever was committing these crimes. Since every one of his victims to date has
been: Single, A successful business woman, Attractive, and a Redhead. I really
couldn't argue the point with him. Jim
even has gone to the point of insisting that I always have Jasper and Street Fighter
with me whenever I go for a run, or to any public area.
