While googling abandoned building I found a couple options. One of the options were really close to my our neighborhood. The other four were at least five miles out of town. The thing really driving me insane is not know if we are even right about any of this. If we are not right then we are doing all of this for nothing and wasting time that we might not have. What if we are just creating this whole scenario to try and find an explanation for something we do not understand.
"Hey Ember I think I found a couple options. There are only a few buildings that match the necessary requirements. The closest building is at 1154 Wingers Road." I told her that with hesitation. Ember was staring out my window. It looked like she was staring into her own bedroom. Sometimes I wish I could read her mind. Then maybe I would know if she loved me as much as I love her. If she did then she would choose me not Xavier. I would not have to stress anymore I would already have my plan ready.
Xavier is like a brother to me. I honestly do miss him even though he was my competition. The one thing I have that he does not is I will not give up, I will do anything to make Ember mine.
"The other three options that I found are all roughly two miles apart heading straight up Township Road 13." finally Ember looked up at me when her eyes met mine I could tell that she was sad. I felt awful I want to make things better for her. I wanted to be there for her in every way I can be.
Maybe really getting into this investigating will help her gain some hope. We may not find anything by going to these buildings. It does not really matter if it is false hope or not, hope is hope. At least it would keep her goin for a while. The last thing she needs is to lose hope her faith in finding them. Once she gets it in her head that they are not coming back she will never be the same. I do not want to see her fall apart, but if she does I will be the there to pick her back up.
"Well I am okay with checking out the closest building pretty early tomorrow. We will have to make it quick though. I have to head to the police station sometime before 3:00 p.m. the sheriff wants to talk to me. The secretary for his office said that he is very busy tomorrow so the earlier I get there the better." I do not know why, but when Ember said that I got weirdly nervous. I wonder why the sheriff would want to talk to Ember. I mean there are quite a few possibilities I just do not know exactly what it could be.
"Oh well what do you think the sheriff would want to talk to you about?" I hope it is not bad news. Ember can not handle a whole lot more devastation in her life. I mean there is only so much one person can take before they fall apart. I mean even if it does happen to be bad news I will be there for her. If she breaks I will be there to pick up the pieces and put her back together. Ember is definitely a very strong person. I know she is more resilient than I ever will be. I lost one of my parents and I broke I was ready to die. Ember lost both of her parent with no warning at the exact same time. Now we have both lost Xavier, but I think we still have hope for him. I know I do Xavier is tough I am sure he will make it through this.
"I really do not know, but it must be important. I mean why else would the sheriff take the time out of his day to talk to me. They must have an update on my parents or Xavier which is good that means progress. Most of the time I talk to one of the officers and those conversations need go anywhere. I hope it is different talking to the boss." Ember is right they must have some sort of update on one of the cases. I just really hope the update is beneficial. I am tired of the updates that do not give us any information and do not show any progress I either case.
"You have to be right. This must be a pretty big deal. Maybe after going to the abandoned building you will have some updates for him as well. Hopefully together we can solve these cases and have our friend group and your family be whole again." I truly just want Ember to be happy. If the police found any evidence it may help lighten her mood a bit. She seems so lost lately always zoning out and going deep into thought. It seems the more she thinks the sadder she gets. I feel like she is losing her optimism. Ember is the one thing that keeps me going. If I lose her I will have nothing left to live for.
"Hey Trystin I am getting really hungry I think I am going to go back to my house. Get some good sleep tonight we are going investigating tomorrow. Text me if you think of anything else important." with that Ember left to go back to her house. With everything going on even though it was not that late I was exhausted. I went down to my kitchen and ate a ham sandwich. Turning on the TV I scrolled to my favorite show. Before I knew it I was asleep on my living room couch. I found myself stuck in the same dream as last night. Well I guess it is more of a nightmare, and one I can never escape. My nightmares feel like one giant puzzle that I just can not figure out how to put together.
