Kidnapped 2

Brian gets to Lilly's house in time to stop Lex from freaking out and going coo-coo (Crazy)

Brian: (Takes her to the sofa to sit down) You did a great job at calming down

Lex: Stop being sarcastic. Where is my baby sister!

Brian: Um well, how about we start asking the neighbors if they found her anywhere, like going out or something

Lex: Alright, let's do that.

(They go out)

At Becca's house

Becca just came home from Lucy's. They finished practicing and she got a good meal.

She goes to the bathroom to take a shower, after showering, she goes through the internet going through social media to see the trending topics.

However, she sees a picture of Kris posted by a girl in Kris's timeline with the heading, Love of my life and future husband. And this girl happens to be a movie star.

Becca panics and rings Kris

Kris: Hey blueberry, what's up

Becca: Um nothing,

I mean Hey, how are you?

Kris: I'm okay. No need to worry.

Becca: Good

Kris: Yeah, How's Lucy?

Becca: You know, good, just being herself.

Kris: And you?

Becca: I'm cul

Kris: If everything's alright then why did you call?

Becca: I can't call just to say Hi?

Kris: No, that's not you at all

Becca: (Pissed off) Well, Kris,

I just wanna ask if you're dating this Kira actress that posted on your timeline

Kris: Oh Kira, Nope

I'm not even in any relationship now, I'm enjoying being single

Becca: She posted your picture saying, Love of my life and future husband, she even tagged you

Kris: Since when do you start caring about posts?

Anyways, that's what she does, who cares anyways, I just react to her posts because she's a celebrity, I have nothing to do with her.

She has been trying to be my girlfriend since forever.

Becca: Oh!

Kris: Yeah, nothing between us.

Becca: (Happy) Oh okay

Kris: For one reason, you sound weird

Becca: (Stupefied) Talk later, bye. (hangs up)

Phew, to think he was dating this hot Kira girl.

Kris, Kira, double K. They can be called double K couples.

Oh my! (Holds her head) What is wrong with me?

Lizzy: (Enters) Hey sis (Looks cheerful)

Becca: (Logging off Social media) Do I always have to tell you to knock before entering my room?

Lizzy: Do I always have to remind you that I don't care?

Becca: (Smiles) Okay. What do you want?

Lizzy: To spend time with you

Becca: You seem happy

Lizzy: Do I? (Blushes)

Becca: Don't tell me that Jasper guy came back to you and you accepted?!

Lizzy: (Sits close to her on her bed) No.

And please don't say his name, it brings memories

Becca: Oh, I'm sorry.

Lizzy: It's fine.

It's just, this guy…

Becca: Ohooo, some boy is hitting on you!

Lizzy: Shhh! Don't scream!

Becca: No one's home.

Lizzy: Well, the security guy is at home. I don't want anyone knowing.

Besides, he is just a friend. We met at the chess club. He just joined and he has been fun.

Becca: Awww, I'm happy for you

Lizzy: Um, no. We aren't a couple, just friends.

I don't want another heartbreak or something…

But I just feel so comfortable, so happy and myself with this guy.

Becca: Care to tell me his name?

Lizzy: His name is Freddie.

Becca: Freddie. Sounds fun, his name already speaks fun

Lizzy: Yeah.

Becca: So why are you home?

Lizzy: My straightforward and blunt sister.

Anyways, I came for a project.

You know, my course.

Well, we are talking about Africa's history. At least, a country each.

I get to do history about Nigeria and since Dad did visit Nigeria often, I came to see if I can get some things in the place where we kept Dad's stuff.

Becca: (Sober). I miss him..

Lizzy: I miss him too

Becca: He would come home with some things about Africa and tell us all about it!

He was born in Nigeria but grew in South Africa and later came to New York.

Lizzy: And all his experiences and his travels as a diplomat was like bedtime stories for us

Becca: He would say, If you girls promise not to fight for the whole week while I'm away, I promise to buy you anything you want

Lizzy: And those were the times he was away for weeks not the months time

Becca: Yeah.

And after we would pretend not to fight, he would get us ice-cream, all of us.

That time, Mom wasn't working too much because dad helped but now…

Lizzy: She isn't working because she needs more money, I mean, Dad left some things for us in the will, a lot of things actually. And you got money as well, not too much but at least makes you financially secure for years..

We aren't some average family trying to survive and need money at all costs.

Mom is just working herself out to get over depression

Becca: You think it's gonna work

Lizzy: She's been doing pretty well.

(Holds Becca's hands) See Becca, it's all fine.

Dad is with us, he lives in us. The memories of him are always with us.

You don't have to feel too bad, okay?

Becca: I just miss him much, the family hasn't been the way it has been before.

Lizzy: How about we plan a vacation together in the holidays, this coming holiday.

Just you, me, Mom, out of the country for a whole week?

Becca: Africa?

Lizzy: (Laughs) Sure. (Becca hugs her)

Becca: I love you

Lizzy: I love you too.

And just so you know, we are splitting the money for the vacation.

Becca: (Laughs) Sure.

Lizzy: Alright baby sister, I gotta go get some information for my project. (Gets up to leave)

Becca: Okay big sister.

Lizzy: (Phone rings, stares at her sister and picks the call). Hey Freddie

Becca: (Chuckles) You can go talk to him outside my room

Lizzy: (Blows kisses to Becca and leaves)

Becca: (Breathes out) I hope everything turns out just right.

At Lilly's house

The neighbors didn't see Lilly anywhere

Lex: What do we do now? We can't file a complaint of a missing person, it hasn't gotten to 24hours.

Brian: I am so confused!

How about we check her room for some details or something?

Lex: How's that gonna help??

(A lady approaches them)

Lady: I was just coming from the grocery store and my husband told me that you were looking for Lilly

Lex: Yes, we were, we still are.

Lady: Well, before I went out, I saw her talking to a little boy who asked for help. I didn't know what happened next, I just left

Lex: Have you seen the little boy somewhere before?

Lady: I don't think so

Lex: We should look for the little boy.

Can you tell us what he looks like?
