"how he went missing? When? From where?" I asked to paws and Ellie.
"We don't really know. The message came on that camp group. Remember all the campers made a group chat?" Ellie said and I took my phone to check the message. It's actually a link of a news website and I clicked in it.
The news ➡
14-year-old boy went missing from California. He was in his home until night, on morning when his parents checked they found his son missing. They rapidly informed the police and they are investigating.
Then there is a photo of mike. (in real he looks like louis partridge but in this photo he looks exactly like Charlie chaplin. I know this is not a time for jokes. Just saying!)
Under his photo it says—If anybody finds out this boy somewhere, contact to (and there's cell phone number, I had no time to read it so I closed it and turned to paws and Ellie.
"I am going to say few things, hear it patiently. At last only reply. Okay?" I asked to them and they both nodded and I started "it's not world's worst thing in the world to make a new friend, if that friend feels you, trust you, understands you, then great! Mike was that. Just because I am having a friendship with mike doesn't mean that I've moved on from you guys. You guys don't like theater, I like theater. Have I ever had a fight about that in these years? One day I met a person who likes theater, we talked and became friends. I only get to go to the theater with him, or write with him or even go for a little hang out but he doesn't cook with me, he doesn't dance with me, he doesn't come to my house for a sleep over and he don't get angry for not giving spaghetti. I love you guys" I said and tears ran out from the three of us' eyes.
"we know and we love you" Paws said and she and Ellie came to me and we 3 had a big hug.
And I continued "now coming to the point. Drew isn't dead, she is missing" I said and was able to notice an astonished face in both Ellie's and paws face.
"everybody lied to us. I had a feeling that everything is wrong, so I said mike and then I got grounded but yesterday night— "I hesitated to say it but I have to spit it out "yesterday night mike came here"
"holy cow, what on earth are you saying" Ellie asked.
"this is so unfair and the worst thing" paws accompanied.
"I haven't invited him here; he came by his own" I said asap.
"So he went missing after leaving from here?" Paws asked.
"ADIOS" Ellie said.
"what? No, no good byes. You guys have to help me find him. Guess we have to be investigators!" I said with a beaming face. (actually mike's missing is not so beaming but being a detective is!!!"
