Les Fleur Sauvage
Hello
My name is Shelly Ann Scott and I am a sales
representative for a software company. I
like my job because it takes me all over
the world. I am usually gone for weeks at
a time. All the people I have to deal with
are quite pleasant. My boss is very nice
to me and has told me I have a big future
with the company. I am single and have a
very exciting love life! I go out almost
every night dancing with my friends. We have
a great time going to all the clubs. I love
animals but can't have any because I'm never
home. One day I want to own a monkey. I love
to skate and swim or just about any type
of outdoor activities. I have even bungie
jumped before. As you can see I am very happy
with my life but it wasn't always like that.
You see when I was about 15 something happen
to me that changed my life. My dad, mom and
me were coming home from the drive-in movie.
When we got home we noticed that the front
door of our house was already open. My dad
told my mom and me to wait outside and he
went into the house. He look around downstairs
then he went upstairs. We then herd my dad
shout "Get out of my house!" and then we heard a gunshot. My mom then
ran into the house and up the stairs. I hesitated
and I started to shake but followed my mom
into the house. But by the time I got to
the bottom of the stairs I herd another gunshot.
My mom came tumbling down the stairs with
blood all over her face. I started screaming
looking at her I seen that she had been shot
in the head. I got down on my knees and held
her. A man came down the stairs. I couldn't
see his face through my tears. The man said
"I killed your daddy too!" Then he laughed and ran out the door.
I don't know how long I sat there holding
my mom before a neighbor came and called
the police. The police latter told me that
it did not appear that anything was stolen.
I couldn't understand why anyone would do
this to my parents. They were such a happy
couple and best friends. They knew each other
since they were 5 and grew up together in
Arizona. They had pet names for one another
my dad called my mom lolly, short for lolly
pop and my mom use to call my dad fuzzy even
though he was bald. They couldn't keep their
hands off of each other. I don't think they
could have lived without one another. What
type of person could go out of their way
to murder such a happy couple?
At the reading of the will we found out that
a silver watch was missing and we presumed
it was stolen by the murder. The watch had
no real value and was a family keepsake because
it was my great, great grandfather's, Wilhem
Scot, and had star engraved on it.
Well as you can see I went through some very
rough times and it took me a long time to
get over this tragedy. But I learned you
must pick up the pieces and move on. That
what my parents would have wanted me to do.
They raised me well. So you can probably
guess that my house is well secured. I really
don't care if a burglar gets in though I
just don't want him to leave. I went to great
lengths to make sure he could not escape
after he broke in. I had trap doors installed
that would drop him into a deep pit built
with high, smooth walls. I had it tested
to make sure no one could escape. When in
the pit there would be picture of my parents
and a tape recording that would play this
story every 15 minutes. Because like I said
before I am usually gone for weeks at a time
because of my job so the burglar might as
well relax 'cause he's not going anywhere.
The recorder stops and a captive burglar
looks at his silver watch, that has a star
engraved on it, and shakes his head in disgust.
