Chapter Ten

 

Garrett and Maggie were standing next to each other in the parking lot of the police station. “I’m sorry, Maggie,” he said.

“Garrett, I forgive you. Whatever this is about, I forgive you.”

“I’m sorry you thought I was the killer, I’m sorry I scared you, I’m sorry I wasn’t there when the guy came around, and I’m sorry I couldn’t do more to protect you. I’m sorry that your friend had to die. I just wish I could have caught him before he even lay a hand on you. I love you.”

“I know,” she said. “I love you, too. I should have believed you in the first place, when you told me you were innocent.”

“I know,” he said, and he appeared to be teared up.

“I didn’t mean to blame you for the crimes.”

“Please don’t blame yourself.”

The Sidewalk Stalker was actually the man who had victimized her mother, years ago.

Maggie sighed and said, “Well, it looks like we’re now free to go. No more danger here.”

“You’re right, doll,” Garrett said, putting his arm around her shoulder.

Together they walked towards the parking lot and got into either side of the car.

“Look! There’s Officer Sam.”

Officer Sam waved to them as they drove away. Garrett turned to her and said, “Now nobody will ever take away my Star.”

 

The End.
