7. Hello Officer

"Okay Ms. Stevens, you stay here in the car and keep the doors locked while I have a talk with Dr. Stevens."

"Just a talk?" Ivy balked at the thought. "You need to arrest his ass."

"Ms. Stevens.. I will try questioning him but you should know that I can't hold him without any evidence or probable cause and I can't arrest him without a warrant."

Ivy rolled her eyes deeply watching the freckled officer side-step from the car rising like an Amazon to approach the heavy glass door of the dentist's office.

"Well shit," Ivy mumbled as the officer swung it open effortlessly disappearing inside. "She strong. I'll give her that, but she should've called backup. That nigga ain't got em all."

Ivy looked over at her car which was sitting next to the police car before she put her eyes back on the door trying to peer through the darkened glass.

"If something happens to her, she left the keys," Ivy mumbled looking around for any onlookers or walkers. There were none. "I don't think she supposed to do that, but shit, I'm out this bitch with or without her."

"Oh, hello officer! You're responding to Dr. Stevens' call? I'll go get him now."

Trinity was greeted at the front desk by a spritely looking black girl with black box braids who seemed too ditzy and clumsy to be a criminal mastermind in any sense of the term. Her nameplate said Araya.

"Call? I wasn't aware he called, another officer must be on the way.." Probably Thomas, Trinity thought. "I came because I need to speak with Dr. Stevens if that's alright."

Araya stalled, confused. "Oh... Is it an appointment? I could schedule you."

The twin sister popped up a second later. They seemed to have different personalities though they looked so similar. She had a completely different look in her eye, one that said she might be capable of acting a nut. A look at the nameplate said her name was Draya. Trinity made a mental note to watch her.

"No. I need to ask him a few questions. I'd appreciate if one of you went to go get him."

They were complete airheads in Trinity's mind.

"Oh! Okay, certainly. Draya, go get him," Araya nudged sending her sister back to where she came from. "He should be right out."

Trinity nodded before she looked around the room, picking up magazines and putting them back down. The television was at a low calming hum and all the blue made her feel like she was on the beach.

While she searched for anything strange, her eyes darted around and a feeling told her to pay close attention to Araya.. so she looked subtly from the corner of her eye. Araya was full-on staring with a grin and sitting very still.. unhumanly still.

Trinity stood and walked toward the desk, resting her elbows on it as she peered down at the tiny ditz of a woman. She was the size of a child.

"You're a strange girl. How old are you?"

"Oh.. Me?" She pointed to herself and Trinity wanted to dry up on the spot. Who else was there? "I'm 22. I turn 23 in December."

"How long have you been working here?"

She blinked twice, her lip quivering before answering. "Um, since late 2016?"

Trinity did the math. She was 18-19 when she started.

"How much experience did you have? You were just out of high school or in your first year of college. How did you get this job?"

"Dr. Stevens was young too, he gave us a chance!"

As if on cue, the wooden door opened and a young black man stepped through reaching for her hand. He was outlandishly handsome and looked too young to be the dentist, but without hesitation, she grabbed and shook it. He had a gentle grip and humble eyes. He was also 6'2 which was taller than the men she was used to seeing.

"How long have you been a dentist? You look way too young.. like a baby," she squinted watching his eyes widen before his head dropped sheepishly with an awkward grin.

"Uh, I turned 31 in February."

That was a year younger than Trinity. Her eyes widened.

"That would mean you finished school quickly and jumped into your own practice," she spoke with wide eyes. He was highly intelligent afterall. But the motivation wasn't there. Why would someone so young and accomplished.. and incredibly good looking do any of what he was just accused of? It didn't make a lick of sense. He had way too much to lose.

"Um, I'm sorry..," he spoke with a glance to her nameplate, "Officer Howard how can I help you today?" He waved for her to have a seat on the navy leather couch next to the door as he sat across from her.

"Right. Pardon me for not introducing myself first. I need to ask you about an appointment you had today with a young lady by the name of Ivy Stevens."

He nodded tiredly.

"Dr. Stevens.. What can you tell me about the events of what happened?"

"Well," he sighed. "I called the police after she ran out of here so quickly, but it's not often that I have a client sprinting from my office after an appointment. Not unless they have to be back at work. I don't know her situation," he shrugged. "I figured she'd had a long day because you're not supposed to drink before an appointment. Makes it difficult for the blood to clot. But I went on and gave her the anaesthetic anyway... Then she fell into a fitful sleep while I worked around her... She mumbled a bit... I filled her cavities and when she woke up, she looked very strange and that's when she left her keys and her phone here and ran out. I was so confused. That's when I called the police. Unfortunately, I've been advised not to say much because professionally this could look bad for me.. but I needed to say that much."

"You said she looked strange when she woke up. Has that happened before?"

"Noo. This is the first time, that's why I was so worried."

"Hello.. How are you officer? Can I offer you some water," Draya chirped walking in.

"...Coffee."

"Ah ah ah, coffee stains," Araya giggled. We only have water."

Trinity winced. What she really needed was some hard liquor with all these conflicting details. She did smell a mild hint of liquor on Ivy that she'd noted. It could've been some sort of scam on Ivy's part or maybe things went sour with them at some point for whatever reason and Ivy wanted revenge. He looked like he could break hearts. There was more reason set up for Ivy to lie than there was for Dr. Stevens to lie.

"Did you know Ivy before the appointment today?"

"Did she tell you that?... We met once or twice before. I didn't think that had anything to do with this. She didn't seem that angry when I turned her down that time.. I was just so focused on building myself, you know? Shit. I said too much. I can't say anymore. I'm sorry. It's just business. I worked too hard."

"I understand," Trinity nodded looking to the twins who stood idly. "Alright well if you have anything else, let me know. Here's my card."

"Thank you ma'am... Draya, will you please go get the belongings Ms. Stevens left behind?"

"Yep." She came back quickly putting the keys and phone in Trinity's hands while Dr. Stevens looked over the card before sliding it into the pocket of his white coat.

"If you can, please return these keys and this phone to Ms. Stevens... Thank you."

Ivy watched as the door swung open and Officer Howard exited the office. She didn't look to be in a hurry or frantic. She didn't look to be concerned about much at all. She went to the driver's side and opened the door handing Ivy her phone and her keys.

"I spoke with him. His story is completely different from yours. If you want to pursue this, I suggest you come up with some evidence fast to back your claims immediately because as things stand.. it doesn't seem like your story has much substance. In the meantime, if you still don't feel safe and you want an escort home or somewhere else, I can follow you to make sure you get there safely."

"That's it.. that's all you're gonna do?" Ivy was disgusted and it was all over her face, she knew it. "Just follow me home then," she snapped hopping out to slam the door. "I'm going home to pack a bag and I'm going to my mom's house. Fuck this. I done told you he's a gotdamn stalker."

"Alrighty then. So I'll follow you home," Officer Howard said brushing her off to climb back into the police car.

Ivy growled, frustrated as she put on her seatbelt almost chipping her white polish. "Fuck." She slapped the wheel before taking a deep breath.

"Police ain't gone do shit," she mumbled pulling herself together. "Gotta handle this my gotdamn self."

Putting her car into reverse, she backed out and then threw it into drive. Officer Howard was right behind her in the review mirror.

"Just useless," Ivy muttered.
