Catherine arrived at Eastwood Subdivision to inform her mother about Caroline and Mike's marital problem.
"Mother, I want to tell you something. Please don't worry too much about what I'm about to tell you. Please take care of your heart," she said, worrying about her mother's health.
"What is it? Tell me now...I'm waiting..." Thelma said.
Catherine breathed deeply. "It's about Caroline and Mike. They were having problems with their marriage. They recently quarreled the other day and Caroline disappeared again."
"Whaaat?" Thelma's face registered shock. "Huh? Again? D-did your sister vanish again without a trace?"
Catherine sighed. "Yes. Mike and I can't contact her. It seemed she turned off her phone and doesn't want to hear our calls. But I'm sure she reads my text messages. She's not ready yet to inform us of her whereabouts. She's probably out there trying to think things over..." she explained.
