Have a seat. He motioned for all the girls to sit as he found his way behind the desk, propping his unusually relaxed feet -adorned in gym shoes- onto the dark wood. So how can I help you guys out?

Find Bette Porter. Alice laughed, and looked to the rest of the group and fell silent when she realized that no one else was laughing.

Bette Porter…name sounds familiar. Anyway, how long has she been missing and do we know anything of her whereabouts? He tapped the end of a pen from his lips to the notebook he held in his other hand. You said shes been missing for about two days, which could mean anything. But were going to work on this because apparently this is important.

We have no idea where she could have gone to. She didnt leave a note, but she did leave her cell phone and laptop. Which is very unusual, theyre her life. Tina said.

His hand scribbled a few notes before emerald eyes scanned the 4 sets of eyes before him. And your relation to Ms. Porter is…

Best friends. Shane, Dana and Alice replied in unison, they then looked to Tina who quietly whispered something about being an ex-wife.

Would she have any reasons for just disappearing? Or can we rule it as a kidnapping?

Shes been depressed lately. Alice said simply. After things with Ms. Kennard here went south, Bette kinda… through herself in to this tailspin of anger and sadness. Bad mix.

A compassionate look crossed his features as he looked over at Tina, And she hadnt said anything about leaving?

No. I moved out and I havent had contact with her since…Tina paused, -the breakup, but the girls here dont know anything either.

Detective Ben Hallows was rarely perplexed, but this would be one of the times where he needed more information. Where he needed things to fall into place. He looked down at his notes, wincing as he tried to find a way to explain the situation at hand, Her house, have any of you visited?

Yes, Shane nodded towards Tina, who sat off in a daze. We found nothing, it was as if everything had been left, like everything just stopped. It was slightly unusual though, Bette was living off of the couch. And there was junk food everywhere. Very un-Bette like.
