Another sleepless night passed and max still had no lead on Zoe's where abouts. But giving up was not an option. It would never be an option.
He stepped out of the house. The street was quite. The road was still. No one about. Just the way max liked to travel to work. No questions and no comments about Zoe. It was so hard. All the lying, all the pretending everything was okay.
He arrived at work and sat down in the staffroom as his phone buzzed.
"Think your getting closer do you? Well think again. I thought I saw some potential but I stand corrected. The sound of sobbing has finally ceased. I think she's sleeping now. She's been asleep a lot these past few day; screaming really does take it out of you."
"Leave her alone" max shouted at the phone before throwing it across the room. His Zoe! She was his Zoe. And now he couldn't even protect her from the monster.
'This was all his fault. If only he hadn't...' People began to arrive for their shifts so max made his way to his 'office'. He spent so much time in here theses days sometimes going home was too hard.
The door knocked, and duty called. He'd have to formulate a plan of action later.
Please review. There'll be more soon xx
