heads.”
    The girls grunted in effort as they struggled to get inside the car.
    â€œHurry up!” Klonsky snapped .
    Sarah snorted. “It’s not easy getting into a car with your hands cuffed behind your back.”
    â€œYou girls should’ve thought about that before you murdered the old lady.”
    â€œSo she was murdered!” Jackie’s eyes widened.
    â€œWe didn’t murder anyone!” Sarah argued.
    Her anger at being searched was no match for her rage at being unjustly accused. She sent Klonsky an angry glare before leaning her head against the seat and closing her eyes. Sitting close to her sister, she smelled the coppery scent of blood on her shirt. Turning her head, she tried not to gag. The tight space in the car was heating up and sweat formed on her brow.
    â€œThat’s right, we’re innocent,” Jackie insisted.
    â€œSave it for the station,” Klonsky muttered as he slammed the door and walked back inside the house.
    Sarah opened her eyes and raised her head. The sweat on her forehead rolled down the side of her face. “Ugh.”
    â€œWhat’s the matter? Jackie asked.
    â€œI can’t wipe the sweat off of my face.” Sarah wiped the side of her face on the back seat. “What’s going on out there?”
    â€œI don’t know,” Jackie said, trying to blow some of the curls out of her face.
    After an eternity, or so it seemed to Sarah, Klonsky reappeared from inside the house and climbed into the car. He ignored the girls as he started the engine. As they pulled away from the curb, an ambulance came into view. Behind the ambulance were three more police cars. This is definitely a crime scene.
    â€œThis is going to be the longest car ride of my life,” Sarah groaned.
    â€œNo doubt, girlfriend,” Jackie grimaced.
    Lacey started to sob. “We’re going to jail!”
    As the cruiser picked up speed, Sarah stared at the world from behind the tinted window. The full force of her predicament hit her like a sledgehammer. What if this is the last time I see sunlight? Her stomach fluttered. It won’t be, Sarah argued. You’re innocent. You didn’t do this.
    Lacey sobbed. “I can’t believe we’re going to jail.”
    â€œYou just had to get blood all over you, didn’t you?” Sarah snapped.
    â€œLike I did it on purpose.”
    â€œShut up, Sarah. It could’ve been any of us,” Jackie said.
    â€œYeah.” Lacey wiped her face on her sleeve.
    â€œMaybe,” Sarah conceded.
    The cruiser slowed and turned into the parking lot of the police station. Klonsky parked the car and turned off the engine.
    â€œWhat’s going to happen to us, now?” Lacey sniffled.
    â€œHey, Officer, what’s going to happen to us, now?” Sarah asked.
    Without turning his head, Officer Klonsky said, “Since you girls are under seventeen, we have to call your parents before we can question you.”
    â€œWe didn’t kill the Cat Lady,” Lacey whined.
    Klonsky turned and glared at them. “That’s what they all say.”
    Klonsky’s dark eyes bored into the girls. They were bottomless pools of anger. Sarah gulped as she took in his size. His shoulders filled the front seat and his head, even with short hair, brushed the ceiling of the car.
    â€œIt’s true.” Sarah clenched her trembling hands.
    â€œYou ever heard of death row?” Klonsky glowered at Lacey.
    â€œYeah.”
    â€œThe majority of those guys say they’re innocent, too.” He turned away from the girls and fiddled with the police radio.
    Lacey began wailing. “We’re going to be on death row!”
    â€œStop crying, we’re innocent. We didn’t do anything.” Sarah glared at the back of Klonsky’s head. “He’s just trying to scare you.”
    â€œIt’s a good thing too. Have you seen what those inmates wear? Bright orange
