"And what do you want with her?" she asked curiously, and I shook my head. This wasn't going to be easy, but I needed to find out what was going on.
"I just need to talk to her," I said quietly, and the woman sighed before she stepped aside so that I could enter the house.
"She isn't here if that is what you come to ask. We are trying to find her as well, but no one has seen her since yesterday morning," the woman said as she gestured for me to follow her, and I did so cautiously. This didn't seem like a good idea, but I needed answers. This family was supposed to be the rough protection of the two, like a gang, I guess, but the place seemed empty and run down.
"Do you have any idea where she might be?" I asked as we walked through the house, and the woman slowly shook her head no.
"If we did, then we would be out looking for her," she said in a cold voice, and I frowned at her. There was something off about this whole situation, but I couldn't put my finger on it.
