FOREVER I PROMISE: Chapter Twelve
ONE MONTH EARLIER

Bette and Tina both had appointments at the same time this day. Bette had Chemo and Tina had to meet Ocsar at the Center about the Grant she had been working on to help raise more money. Since Bettes treatment would take longer Tina dropped her off and went to the Center.

Bette was really having a hard time with the chemo. She was kinda out of it today. When she was done the nurse mentioned that her wife was waiting outside in the car. Tracey helped Bette into the car and as she looked down to say hey, she noticed it wasnt Tina. Before she could get Bette back out, the car sped away. Tracey ran back into the office to the computer desperately trying to pull up Bettes information to get Tinas cell phone number. Before she could find it Tina walked in.

Tina! Oh my God. I was just about to call you. Did you send someone else to pick Bette up today? Tina looked at Tracey with a very confused look. No Tracey I didnt way? Where is Bette? After telling Tina what happened and describing the woman to Tina. Tina felt her knees become weak and she needed to sit down.

Tracey call the police. I think I know who picked Bette up and this is bad. Tina, Bette was really out of it today. Otherwise I know she wouldnt have gotten into that car. Tina I am so sorry. Its all my fault. I didnt know what kind of car you had and since I was told it was Bettes wife, I just assumed it was you.

Waiting for the Police Officer to arrive Tina called Kit and the girls. No one knew where to look. Tina explained to the female Officer that her wife was handicapped and that her mind was not that of a 40 year old.

The Officer put out a BOLA (be on the look out) for the description of the vehicle Tracey had given her. The missing subject is a handicapped, biracial female, 40 yrs of age, Brown eyes, and Mocha skin complexion with short dark hair. Suspect is 30-35 yr old Mexican female, brown eyes, dark hair. Suspects name is Candace Jewel and is wanted for questioning in a kidnapping.

Tina quickly dialed the CAC. James, this is Tina. I need your help. Bette is missing and we think Candace took her. I need her home address James. James tried to pull it up but it wasnt there. Tina hang on let me connect you to Franklin.

Franklin this is Tina Kennard, Bettes wife. I need you to give me Candace Jewels home address. Franklin started rambling that he couldnt give out that information to Tina. Listen you *****!!! My wife has been kidnapped by your ***** carpenter. I swear to god if you dont give me her address I am going The Officer took the phone from Tina.

Sir this is Officer Whit with the Police dept. I would appreciate your cooperation in giving me Ms. Jewels address. Other wise I will be standing in your office with a court order and warrant for your arrest for obstructing my investigation of a kidnapping. Thank you sir for you help.

The officer turned back to Tina and said Ive got it.
