The Man

A mysterious and serious man one day left his house on a cold winter morning. He got his black coat, put on his hat and glasses and left his house. Every morning his routine is to go to the coffee shop buy a cup of coffee and some pastry. On the way to the coffee shop he always buys a copy of the current newspaper to read later. He is a passionate reader. After doing his daily routine he goes to the near park. He likes this park because no one frequents to go there. He is a very lonely man and would like no company. He finds a bench and sits down, like usual. While drinking his delicious cup of coffee he start reading the newspaper. Something weird, strange, or even stupid that this man does is start reading the current news from the back to the front. He thinks that the best news is at the very front and he would rather read it last. He starts reading. He finds boring stories. Keeps reading for something interesting to pop up. He finally got to the very front expecting something interest to be there. He sees the first article on the front page and it read “Mayor Assassinated: Assassin is close.” He couldn’t believe it. He started reading it and could not believe that they were close to finding the assassin. He got so nervous and his cheeks were red like flaming tomatoes. He got up and tried to leave, but someone was watching him. A woman. She stopped him from leaving and asked “Where are you going,”  the woman asked. He had no response. He answered “What do you want”. The woman had no answer. He tried to leave but the woman stopped him. “Why did you get nervous when you read the newspaper?” “No I did not,” he said. “You are under arrest Mr. Dave Wedmeyer, for committing murder,” the woman said. “NO NO that is not me,” Mr. Wedmeyer said. Mr. Wedmeyer murdered the mayor last night. He was very cautelous and tried not to leave any hint that he was the murderer, but certainly he forgot something. He was so close but didn't realize that his ex-girlfriend was a detective. She knew him very well and they both worked together for a very long time. Mr. Wedmeyer was no under arrest and had a fair trial. He was put to 30 yrs of prison.
