"Mom,I can't come home tonight." She said into the phone. "I think I should just stay for the night. Don't worry, I'm fine. Goodnight," She disconnected the call.

"We have to work and I can't afford to go home right now."

   "I checked the number you asked for. The call was made from a burner phone. The burner phone was meant to call James only. We can't track it." Diana accounted.

"Get up!" Diana kicked Mitch in the butt.

"Ow!" He says from his sleep. "Let me rest, I don't wanna end up like somebody."

    Tess narrowed her eyes at him and moved closer. She picked up a pillow and smacked him.

"Ow!" He woke up.

"Say it again."

"No thank you," he said quickly.

  "I'm gonna head over to the hospital. I need to talk to the girls again." Tess announced.
