Martha grumbled as the alarm went off signaling her to wake up. She opened her eyes angrily and looked for the alarm clock she had bought yesterday. The only reason Martha had was because she had finally gotten a job but she had little chances for mistakes. Martha didnt want to get fired on the first day for being late. She finally stopped it and slowly sat up on her bed. She tried wiping the sleep from her eyes but it didnt really work. Martha thanked herself for setting the alarm on her clock a hour before she had to really get up to take a shower. Martha tiredly got up and walked towards the bathroom and quickly as she could while tired got undressed. She turned on the water and let it go full blast and then stepped in. Martha then rememberd about her enemies that were surrounding her. Her father who didnt like how she had led her life, her ex boyfriend who she had emberassed at a party on accident, and her old boss who she had stole 31 dollars from before when times had been tough. Martha thought she heard a door shut but it was probably from the neighbors next door. She suddenly felt a tiny feeling of panic and started to wash her hair of the soap in it. She then saw a shadow cover the shower curtain and she swung it open. She recognized him and was about to scream his name but a kitchen knife plunged into her heart. She was stabbed 31 times and left with the water still running while washing her blood away.


MURDER IN APARTMENT ON FIFTH AVENUE 9:23pm

If you know anything report to the police.
