Chapter 11 Cynthia and Dad

Cynthia had not heard from Lisa for almost a week. She was beginning to worry. Since the Red Eye, Lisa called Cynthia everyday. She was starting to wonder if he came back to get her. If Jackson had come back to get her. With Lisa being in love with him, she probably agreed to go with him. Then she started thinking, even though she does love him, Lisa just wouldn't go just like that. Lisa would have put up a fight. That's the Lisa she knew. A fighter.

Cynthia was working when she decided to call Joe.

"Hello!" Joe answered angrily.

"Hi Joe, it's Cyntyhia."

"Oh, hi Cynthia. What's wrong? Have you heard from Lisa because I haven't and its been a while. I'm worried." Joe said.

"No I haven't, but I think I know why she's gone."

Joe got a questionable look on his face. He knew to. But he asked to make sure. "You do? Why?" Joe said frantically.

Cynthia sighed. "Jackson Rippner." She said boldly.

"Jackson Rippner? He's in jail isn't he?"

Joe was so clueless when it came to Jackson.

"No, he was let off. With Lisa and her feelings for him, I think she went somewhere with him. I don't think she went willingly at first. She would have put up a fight." Cynthia explained. She hated telling these things to Joe. He shouldn't have to be worried about these things. But he was Lisa's dad and she knew that he would go across the world for his only daughter.

"Well, we should look into it. Let's start at her apartment." Joe said.

Cynthia agreed. "That sounds good."

After they made a plan, they hung up. Cynthia told her boss that she wasn't feeling well and asked if someone would cover her shift. Her boss agreed. So, Cynthia gathered her things, got in her car and drove to Lisa's apartment.

Joe was going nuts. Why would she go with him? He had no idea. He got dressed, got in his car and drove to Lisa's as well.

Within twenty minutes, they got there at the same time. They got out of their cars and greeted each other.

"Hi,Cynthia."

"Hi Joe."

"Well, shall we get on with it?" Joe asked.

"Yeah, let's go."

They got to her apartment. Joe had a key. When they went in they were surprised that all of her stuff was gone. When they started to look around, they saw that Lisa's things were put away. They must have started thinking that Lisa knew Jackson was coming, so she must have prepared for him.

After about an hour of looking, they couldn't find anything else. They were really upset. They couldn't try to find a way to help her.

"Let's go Cynthia. There's nothing here. Were wasting our time. We have to try to find another way to find her." Joe said sadly. He felt really ashamed of himself. Lisa meant the world to him. He was about to give up.

Then Cynthia got an idea. "Joe, I'm sure Lisa has her cell phone, so let's just call her and find out where she is?"

Finally, a look of hope came across his face.

"It's worth a shot." Joe said.

Cynthia got out her cell phone and called Lisa's. With five rings, Cynthia heard a voice.

"Hello?"
