True Feel

by Ted Guevara

A Chicago star reporter investigates a murder in which the suspect is an exotic dancer, his love interest. TRUE FEEL is a buckled sidewalk Marion Rafino wheels through. He is casing a lurid killing in Texas, and the main suspect is exotic dancer Credence, his love interest. In the beginning, Marion "I am a reporter for a major newspaper, capable of doing practically anything in my life. When I stumble upon a person whose face resembles a photo tucked in our murder file, the first thing I do is make my affection valid...and my investigation relentless." Credence upon meeting Marion "While at a boutique, I see this man in a wheelchair looking for scented soap. I lend a hand, of course. But at a glance, he shies away. It is when I see him again at my workplace does he get into my business desperately." Marion notices her again, this time working at a Chicago nightclub. A fellow reporter with him thinks she looks familiar and asks Marion to anticipate where they may have seen her first. Snapshots taken from the butchery scene in Corpus Christi are reexamined. But they do not convince Marion. It just brings a dab of inquest every time he goes back to the nightclub. He discovers that Credence belongs to an entrepreneurial group that dances its way across the country. To make his urge whole, he travels down south to singlehandedly try to solve the murder. But does he find the pitfall he fears the most? If Credence is the girl in the picture, what then? Does he lose all hope, even in a medical frontier procedure that can make him walk again?
