Strategizing to find Monique

Michelle gave Laura a worried look.

“Okay, we’ve been walking and searching for a long time now. We won’t be able to think clearly for much longer anymore. We can even make a mistake because we’re losing focus,” she explained while keeping a hand on Laura’s shoulder and looking steadily into her eyes to keep her focused.

“But we can be missing her as we speak,” Laura remarked while scanning the crowds that were rushing past them on the pavement.

“Even so, we will still find her if we get this into the social newspapers and describe the kidnapper and the baby. Many people will be looking for her in no time.

Trust me, let’s just get into this restaurant, sit down, have coffee and get as much help as we can.

I promise. You won’t be sorry.”

Laura turned around and looked at the restaurant.

“Okay then. I guess you’re right. Let’s sit down and strategize,” she agreed and allowed Michelle to steer her into the coffee shop entrance.
