A Body At A Ski Resort | Freewrite
Ralph frowned after sniffing the cup of coffee his secretary placed on his desk. He felt he deserved better coffee. Hell, he deserved a better life and pay for the time and efforts he put into his investigative work.
"Hey, Chris! Can't you get better coffee? This one tastes terrible."
"Sorry, detective but that's what we've got here. Not my fault," Chris replied from his desk outside Ralph's office. Ralph suspected he shrugged as well. Then his desk phone rang. He answered it.
"Anderson speaking. Yes? Oh, hey Stayten….Yes, I'll soon be heading out….mhmm, I got the call a few minutes ago. Just give me ten. I'll be there!"
He banged the receiver on the landline phone.
Chris walked into his office with a case file in his hand. "Everything okay?"
Ralph shook his head. "Got a call about a body found at the massage parlor in Civic Ski Resort." He grumbled, checked his Glock 22 before sliding it into its holster.
"Massage parlor in a ski resort? Um, I don't get it. Are they not all there to, you know, ski or ice dive?" Chris asked, curiously staring at Ralph and expecting an answer.
Ralph grabbed his badge from the desk and walked towards the door, sighing. "If I had a nickel for every time you ask me such silly questions, I would be freaking rich and drink finer coffee."
Chris grinned.

His annoyance in the bad coffee he's been offered. Lol. He should go investigate the murder case first and when he gets back he'll get good coffee. Lovely story
