Gone Missing

A Story by Stella

She is missing...

�"Hello Kayla�" I said opening the door for my good old friend�" long time no see! When was the las time time that we saw each other?

�"After graduation, we went to the beach to celebrate our new freedom, that was ten years ago�" said Kayla.

�"What have you been doing?�" I asked.

�"A lot of things, living life more than the maximum. Have you read the newspaper today?

�"No, why?�" I said, my hand reaching the newspaper.

�"Just another robbery in the Willow's Manor�" she said opening the newspaper for me to see.

�"Sebastian was so nice...�" I said, feeling bad for our school friend, Sebastian Willow.

�"Yeah�" there was a weird silence. I could see Kayla's face, she seemed to be on a hurry.

�"Why did you came?�" I asked, while another question appeared in my mind�" How did you get my address?

�"I have my ways�" said Kayla, this looked fishy...

�"What are you doing here?�" I asked, less friendly this time.

�"Just wanted to say goodbye�" said Kayla�" I'm going to France tomorrow morning, and you were such a great friend to me...

Some time passed, Kayla staring at a photo of us that I kept.

�"That was an amazing vacation, going camping together, I loved it�" she said nostalgically.

�"Me too.

�"Anyone, I have to go�" said Kayla and she hugged me�" I have to run, it was a pleasure meeting you.

Before I could say anything or even process her words, she was already in her car, going to who knows where.

When I relaxed myself a little bit, I grabbed the newspaper and saw the title.

It was her, she was a runner, Kayla was gone missing.
