    DEATH AT THE AIRPORT

    Sarah Strauss was a good-looking actress with long wavy dark hair who worked in a very popular TV serial in the UK. She had taken several days off to relax with her boyfriend Dick, a famous journalist who was very good at making research about murders.

    Today on the newspaper, we can read “Sarah Strauss and her boyfriend Dick have been murdered yesterday at the Heathrow airport by a frustrated fan called Tony”.

    Sarah was waiting for the take off of her flight when she realized that she had a big trouble. ¡She had to renew her passport! She was completely desperate and her boyfriend hadn’t arrived yet. She phoned him, but his line was busy. She decided to leave a message on his voice mail and she started looking for a photo booth.

    (Dick was driving towards the airport and he was using his hands free when Sarah called him. When he hung up his mobile, he saw a message which Sarah had texted.)

    It was exactly 7:00 h, so she had plenty of time because their flight was at 12:00 h. She had enough time to go to the photo booth and the passport office at the airport. When she got to the photo booth it was occupied. She had to wait for 15 minutes. After this time, an overweight man who wore a tight dark suit went out. He looked plain and he didn’t look very masculine. He was very strange but Sarah asked him for advice. “Excuse me, could you please tell me where the passport office is?”. Suddenly the man took up to hoot a whistle foolishly and carried on walking.

    Sarah was terribly frightened “this man is amazed” she thought. She couldn’t think and she was disoriented. A little kid hit her leg and started crying. She tried to consulate him and was talking with his parents about the strange man of the photo booth.

    When she achieved to find the passport office, her boyfriend arrived. They swapped several kisses and he apologized because he had arrived too late. She didn’t turn down his apologies and she grunted when she saw the newspaper which Dick carried. There was a research and a photo of a memorable murderer who regularly attacked to the guest of the luxurious hotels when they went to sleep. Suddenly Sarah told “This is the man of the photo booth”. She emphasized to Dick that she had seen this man at the airport and she shouted him that they had to call the police. But the Dick’s face was pale and a relatively calm voice of man told them “keep your arms still and don’t do any madness”. Sarah couldn’t stop crying and the murderer Tony, a Sarah’s well-known fan, took a gun a shot Sarah. After that he told “Sarah was only for me” and he shot himself.
