Chapter 2


*** In the Next Morning ***

Samantha had arrived earlier. She had not gotten to sleep well last night. The thoughts were still spinning around her head. She sat down in silence, looking around. Stopping and staring at Martin's desk. Martin was a very organized man, she thought.

She didn't understand why she had reacted like that last night. What freak her so much? She didn't get. Martin was a nice person. Yet she was really frightened.

Few minutes later, the elevator's door opened. Martin got out and went to Jack's office.

"I went to Trace's Lab and left Jordan's toothbrush for DNA test.".

"Soon we'll know if DNA matches to Jordan's." Said Jack.

Martin walked toward the door, stopping before opening it. He turned around to look at Jack again.

"Mr. Erhart slept at Jordan mom's house. Her sister called saying she wasn't feeling well. Maybe this all situation can fix their marriage."

"May be. So, we have to find Jordan." Jack replied.

Martin walked out from Jack's office, sitting at his desk. Samantha rose up and went to talk to him.

She lingered to approach of him. But Martin saw her standing in the hallway.

"Need something?"

She smiled.

"I want to apologize. Last night, I don't know what happened. I was... I...I mean. I wondered, today after shift we could have that drink." she stuttered.

"Sure." he answered and looked down at a report paper he held in his hand.

She stood, staring him for a while. Then, she turned around and walked away.

Before she sat down in her chair, Vivian called her.

"What's going on?"

Sam raised her eyebrows. " I don't get?"

"Between you and Martin."

"Nothing is going on." Had an unsure tone in Sam's voice.

"Well, figure it out."

"What?" Sam looked at Vivian.

"Do something. There's this *thing* between you two. Anyone can see. And, he's pretty sure about his feelings. Are you?"

"It's not easy." This irritated Sam

"What's wrong with you, Samantha? Martin doesn't deserve it. Neither do you. If you're not interested, let him know."

Samantha was speechless. These words touched on her deeply.

After Vivian was gone, Samantha whispered, "The truth, I do care for him."

"Sam, you and me, at Erhart's house." Jack walked by her.

*** Earhat's House ***

Jack and Sam knocked on the door and Mr. Erhart opened it.

"We need to ask you a few questions." Jack walked through the door, looking around the living room.

"I said all I know yesterday." he looked at Sam

While Jack walked around the living room. Sam sat down on the couch, talking to girl's dad.

"On business there're problems? Problems with a partner, co-workers, anyone?

"No. Everything is fine."

"Anyone else in your life? Or Mrs. Erhart's life?

"I'm not seeing anyone. And Jane. No."

Sam nodded

"An ex girlfriend?"

Brian looked down, nodding his head. "I had an affair two years ago. She worked at the office. Well, it didn't end up well. She quite and I never see her anymore."

"Physical contact?"

"No, just words. She wanted to keep with the relationship. I wanted to save my marriage. You can see it didn't work."


"We need the name and address."

"Melissa Kraft. Here the address." Brian wrote it on Sam's notebook.

Jack's cell phone rang. He walked to living room corner. As soon as he turned it off. He gave Sam a signal and the two of them left Erhart's house.

"It was Vivian. Three different DNA's were found. One of them matches to Jordan. Another to Jordan's mom. And third no match, yet. Martin and Danny are on the way where the tiara was found." Jack clarified.

"He said he had an affair. Mistress got pissed off when he ended it."

The two of them went back to the car, driving to Melissa's house.

***

Danny and Martin questioned all store owners between ballet classes building and Jordan father's building. They didn't get anything. No one had seen a car or a person hanging around. Anyone could tell them who could have taken Jordan.

"I don't believe. A little girl disappeared and no one seems to remember anything." Danny said in a sad tone.

"We're going to find her. Alive." Martin stuttered.

The two young men went back at FBI building.

"So, Martin. You and Sam figure out your relationship or none yet?"

"She's so complicated. Sometimes I think we're going to next level then she freak. You know what pisses me off? I know she wants we get together. But, I don't know."

"Talk to her." Danny suggested.

"I tried. But she always runs away. I think as much as I like her, it's better to forget her and move on." Martin replied.

*** Melissa Kraft's House ***

She opened the door as soon as she heard the name Brian Erhart, she became very furious. Melissa didn't allow them to enter at her house without a warrant. Jack asked for a sample of her hair. She denied. After a while talking Melissa pulled it off giving it to Jack.

*** FBI Building ***

"Jack." Vivian pointed.

Brian was walking into the office. He looked concerned. He stopped next to Jack and Vivian.

"What did you say to Melissa?" Brian screamed.

"Calm down." Vivian said.

"Melissa called me. She was so angry because I told the police about her. She said..." he started to cry. "She said she hopes Jordan won't be found, not alive. She did. Melissa's taken my little girl."

"Mr. Erhart, in my office, please." Jack walked with Brian through the hallway.

They entered Jack's office. Brian sat down in front Jack's desk. He seemed he'd lose his temper.

"We're investigating. Melissa's DNA doesn't match to our sample. For now, there's a cop in front her house. Where she goes, we'll know. It's all we can do until we're sure she has anything with Jordan's disappearance."

"You don't get. Jordan is a miracle. We tried to have a child for years. Jane cannot have any children."

"Hold on. Jane is not Jordan biological mother?"

"No. Jordan doesn't know. We never tell her."

"Why did you not tell us before?" Jack screamed.

"I thought this wasn't important."

"Everything is important. We found three different DNA's on Jordan's tiara. One of them doesn't match to any one we know. I suppose it's Jane. The other matches Jordan's mom. Who is Jordan biological mother?"

"She would never hurt Jordan. She loves that girl."

"Who is, Mr. Erhart?"

"Patricia. Jane's sister."
