the bedroom murder (fictional)

scene: at exactly 4:00am, a 15-year-old girl named kayla mayer was found dead in her bedroom.
she was found:
dead in her bed
extremely pale skin
preliminary cause of death: cyanide poisoning (parenteral injection), confirmed by doctors.

background: kayla had a heated argument with her father around 6:40pm (witness: younger brother). he claims the father slapped her with a newspaper. after that, she stayed in her room crying and locked the door.
father says he later knocked and kayla eventually opened the door, and he apologized. this allegedly happened around midnight while the rest of the family slept. he also claims she was studying until ~11pm due to exams.

kayla was a top student, well-liked, no known conflicts.

school context: kayla ranked 2nd in her class. top student is lain grimmer, quiet, shy, and very secretive. they weren’t close and had no known conflicts (confirmed by classmates + police checks).

lain’s background:
parents say she sleeps early (~7pm), sister says she often stays up late
very secretive
diagnosed privately with strong narcissistic traits + low empathy (police info only)
history of childhood violence (killed a cat at age 7, reportedly studied its brain)
extremely gifted in biology from a very young age

victim mental health: kayla had depression (confirmed via messages with friend hera, including images of self-inflicted wrist scars).
key evidence:

bedroom door found unlocked

kitchen window was the only unlocked window
no theft

kayla had severe nut allergy (irrelevant unless poisoning misdirection)

cyanide found in blood/tissues

no syringe or medical tools found anywhere (not even trash)

family claims they don’t own syringes

classmates had been inside the house before (group project history)
bedroom door was unlocked from inside when discovered

My proposed solution:

Kaylee and Lain were secret lesbian lovers. Their classmates and Lain's parents had no idea, but Kaylee's father had started to develop suspicions that her daughter harbored unauthorized night guests in her room. Lain suggested that they should kill Kaylee's father and gave Kaylee the cyanide syringe. Kaylee initially agreed to wait until 4 a.m. when her father would be fast asleep and then sneak to inject the cyanide, but after Lain had left, Kaylee alone in her room reconsidered her course of actions and realized that she loved her father and was a horrible person for agreeing to murder him and his death would make her sad instead of happy. Yet Kaylee didn't want to face Lain's disappointment either. At 4 a.m. Kaylee in the throes of chronic depression, self-blame, and an impending poor exam score for not having slept a wink in the entire night solved her problems by injecting the cyanide into herself. Not too long after that Lain came to help with the cleanup as agreed but found Kaylee dead from suicide instead. Lain was worried that the syringe could be misunderstood as evidence for her having murdered Kaylee, so Lain took the syringe and left the house without alerting anyone.
