Weeks Later

Tree Hill Office Building

Having just had to leave his business meeting. Lucas was in the hallway clutching his cellphone as his children's combined emotional frightened voices filled his ear.

"Momma didn't come get us at school!" Sam exclaimed.

"Where is she everyone's gone!" Scarlett exclaimed.

Lucas took a breath. "It's going to be okay. I'll be right there. Stay inside the school." He instructed.

Lucas went back into the board room and ended the meeting. Rescheduling it for a later date. As soon as he could he left the office building and drove directly to the elementary school.

At the sight of his car parking in front of entrance doors. Scarlett and Sam ran outside and rushed inside the backseat.

"Both of us called and texted her multiple times. She hasn't answered." Scarlett informed.

"We're worried and afraid. What if something happened to her.? What if she's hurt or lost!" Sam rambled on.

"Listen to me. You're mom is fine. She's probably just busy working or her cellphone died. Let me take you to aunt Haley and uncle Nathan's house. You can hang out with you're cousins and relax. I'll find you're mom and you can forget this happened." Lucas suggested.

"We just want to go home." Sam stated.

Scarlett nodded her head in agreement.

"Before i drop you off at home. I'll go to the cafe and get the two of you something to eat." Lucas announced.

Awhile Later

Karen's Cafe

Lucas scanned the dessert display cases and picked out two hot chocolate cupcakes.

"I suggest an order of two hot chocolates or hot apple cider." The voice said.

Lucas stared up at the person attached to the voice. Shocked to see his son wearing a Karen's Cafe work uniform.

"Anything else i can get for you sir.?" Keith questioned.

"No just that to go thanks." Lucas replied. As he left the counter. And kept walking.

"I'll be out there soon to cover you're shift. Then we can have lunch." Karen said.

"Why is my son working for you.?" Lucas asked. Closing the door to her office.

Karen's eyes went wide. An expression of shock on her face at the sight of her son.
