Code & Silas, You Again - Vilia Amertil
Code & Silas - Halloween Costume
Spring was slowly creeping into summer and Code Patterson was heading to the exit of Morrison Elementary School. She had stayed behind to mark math exams. If she wasn’t so tired, she would’ve stayed longer. But dinner and sleep were tugging at her heart. On her way out, she said goodbye to one of the security officers. He was one of two of them, and both were former police officers. After a shower and having dinner, she made one quick call to her best friend Maddie. She then went to her bed where she quickly drifted off to sleep.
Detective Silas Armstrong was squinching his eyes as the rays of the morning sun was sneaking into his room from the slight opening of the blinds. He gave a big yawn before getting out of bed. He had finally settled into from what he had left behind. The hustle and bustle of city life wasn’t good for him. At the suggestion of his father, he had moved back home to Brilloria. Home, where he had grown up, was still the same, even though familiar faces had become aged and new faces had become familiar.
In no time he was ready and out the door. He was heading to his father’s house for breakfast. Since his return, that had become a ritual. His mother had died. And that was the main reason he had left town. And maybe that's the reason I stayed away for so long, he thought as he sat down at the kitchen table.
You still make the best pancakes,
he told his father as he took another bite of one of them.
Thank you. So what about it?
his father asked.
Gosh, is that the time?
Nice try, Silas.
I eat pancakes. I don’t make them.
You know that the breakfast dish doesn’t necessarily have to be pancakes. That’s why it’s called The Great Breakfast Competition.
He was saved from answering by the ringing of his phone. Excuse me,
he said, getting up from the table. Nine minutes later, he was back.
Is anything wrong?
his father asked.
Duty calls.
Okay. Think about the competition.
Will do,
he said, reaching for his coat.
And don’t forget I invited Code, Maddie, and Mark over for dinner tomorrow night.
Dad, whatever you and Mark are–
We’re not trying to do anything,
he said.
My detective sense thinks otherwise. Sorry, but I have to go.
Please be careful,
his father told him, giving him a hug.
Will do,
he said, rushing out.
Code was just pulling into the school’s driveway when Maddie was exiting her car. She stood next to it and waited for her best friend, who was reaching in the backseat for something.
What’s in the box?
Maddie asked.
I told my kids that–
Ah, how cute that sounds.
O-kay. I told them that if they did well in their exams that I’d wear a red wig during the whole day of school.
Is that what’s in the box?
Yeah.
I’ll have to be bold enough to do that,
Maddie said. Code smirked. What are you up to?
she asked, walking away slowly.
I got two wigs.
I’m not wearing that wig at school.
You don’t have to. You can wear it at Girls Night In.
Good.
We’ll take pictures,
Code said.
Not good.
Good morning ladies,
Principal Janice Turner said as she was coming down the school’s steps. I forgot something in my car. What a terrible business this tragedy is,
she said, walking away.
Before Code could ask a question, Principal Turner was too far away. She waited until she returned.
Don’t think about it,
Maddie said.
About what?
she asked innocently. Turning to the principal, she asked, Principal Turner, what tragedy are you talking about?
They found Sally Robertson's body–
The cashier?
Maddie asked.
Yeah. They found her in the freezer this morning.
How did she get stuck in there?
Code asked.
I don’t know. Excuse me, I have to make my rounds. This school is so sadly silent without the kids filling it up,
she said, going back into the school.
What time is it?
Code asked Maddie.
Time to head into the school.
Wrong answer,
she said, putting down the box. Opening it, she took out one of the wigs and put it on.
I’m going to ask this regrettably, but why are you wearing that red wig now?
So you know who I’m hinting at can’t recognize me when I go over to the store. Want to go?
You run towards dead bodies. Me, I run the other way.
So that’s a no? I’ll be back in fifteen minutes,
she said, rushing over to her car. Getting in, she drove off wearing the red wig.
When she got there, the crowd was beginning to thin out. The police were still there on the scene. Seeing no sign of Detective Armstrong, she moved closer. And when she was about to go even closer, he came out of the store. He stopped to speak to one of the officers while glancing around. He said something to another officer before going back in. Taking that as her cue, she went as close as possible.
Is the store opening today?
she asked the officer.
No, ma’am.
She was about to ask another question. But that was when Detective Armstrong came back out again.
Thank you,
she said before quickly turning around.
Red wig, Miss Patterson.
"Code, please. Is it so hard to call me by
