Chapter five

When Angie got home, there were eight messages waiting for her. It was Father Leo who had beentrying to get a hold of her for days.

Father Leo had got acquainted with Angela Dodson trough a case he had asked the police to look at. He wanted Angela's help in the search for some missing street kids. Her department had no intentions of following the case, as the chief thought there was no base for investigation. In desperation Father Leo went straight to Angela. Everyone at the office knew Angie was a devout catholic, and Father Leo must have felt that one of his own wouldn't let him down.

She picked up the phone and dialled up the Father's number at his church. After getting through to him, he had told her that yet another street kid, this time a young female, had gone missing. Certain kids and young adults were starting to vanish from the streets through thin air. Prostitutes, runaways, gang bangers, butall who had seeked Father Leo's help to better their lives. As soon as the they seemed to be making progress they would go missing.

Father Leo's distress call had made Angie forget about her pregnancy, about telling John and how things had gone so expectingly wrong this evening.She wondered what John was thinking. About her, about their baby, about the whole situation.

"Find these missing kids" she said out loud to herself and her mind went back to her unofficial case.
