Hey, baby girl, Sam here. Listen, I want to say at the bottom of my sickening heart that I am so, so, so sorry for not picking up the phone last night. I hope you didn't take it the wrong way, baby, for not answering. This isn't like me, but I am telling you this so I hope that this missed call is because you aren't mad at me. I have a good reason. A very good reason. So, hear me out.

So, yesterday afternoon, Dad takes me to a local pachinko parlor that he knows out in Midtown. He knows I like Korean food and there were a couple of old maids that were out there serving their customers with foods. He knows that I don't enjoy pachinko or seeing him and his girlfriend gamble. But, he stopped me at Korean food. I knew you weren't in your best of moods after school. So, that is why I didn't invite you. So, anyway, we go to this pachinko parlor. Major, major gambling spot, by the way. It is very under the grid. He said he was taking me to a parlor, but who would've guessed that the joint is disguised as a bathhouse. I mean like yuck!

Anyway, while I saw so-called guardians play, the old maids served me something called miyeok guk. They said that it was some beef seaweed soup. Well, long story short, I ate the soup. I knew that they were old grannies, but they didn't tell me that the beef itself was past due.

So, my night was spent in the toilet. I was puking my precious voice out. Also, I forgot to charge my phone. So, anyway, I am still feeling ill so I won't be able to see you right now. But, please call me as soon as you can. I miss you. I love you.

I hope I haven't done anything wrong. Especially with the conversation we had before, you know nevermind. Love you, bye.

Hey, baby, Sam here. I wanted to let you know that I am starting to feel better. I knew I have some strong genes to fight any of the worst of things. I learned my lesson. This will be the last, last time you will catch me going to underground joints like that again.

Damn, who am I kidding, babe. You and I should be very familiar with the rat pits we have frequented during our midnight hour rendezvous. Remember the dive bar we went to with Tabby? I think it was called the Sand Bar. Remember the cute boys who paid for our drinks? I am still having chills of that crazy, dirty dancing we did there. We should check it out again when you call me back.

But, I hope I am not disturbing you. I hope that you are not mad in any kind of way. I just hope that you are okay. Knowing for you, you are probably shaking off some stress you have been having lately. I know that it happens, but you know you are more than welcome to tell me these things. You are my girlfriend, silly. Everything is your everything. Your pain is my pain. What I share, you should know. Feel how I feel.

On second thought, let me call you back. I still think I have some leftover miyeok guk left in my system. I call you later, bye.

Hey, Luna, baby. This is your girlfriend, Sam. I know that I am calling a little bit more than before, but I am getting kind of worried. What reasons are you not returning my calls? Normally, if we are ever in a scuffle, we tend to bicker and fight. But it never last too long and we have the most incredible make-up sex in the world. I know this isn't right, but remember when Lincoln caught us on your bed while we were doing it. I mean, the boy was tickled pink. He reminded me of a blushing bride. It was so cute and adorable that I couldn't stand it.

Speaking of Lincoln, I want to congratulate him on his debut comic. I know he had to be excited. Sorry that I didn't make it to the comic book store. Quality time with my family is quality time. No ifs, ands, or buts.

Is that probably one of the reasons why you aren't answering? Was it because I told you I couldn't make it? Was it because of that? Baby, you know I would have gone. Anything of you, Lincoln, the family, I am willing to participate. Being a part of your family in different circumstances, I wouldn't have missed it for the world. However, my dad thinks we spend too much time. So, I hope that it was not that particular reason.

Anyway, I think I will call it a night. I hope to see you at school tomorrow. Call me if you get this. I love you till the ends of the Earth. Good night, Luna.

Answer me back, baby. Please!

Luna, is everything okay with you? Now, I am worried. I stand by waiting in the parking lot for you, as usual, whenever you come to school. I waited for twenty minutes before hearing the tardy bell. I thought that you were running late and I will see you in our American History class. I came to class and your seat is empty. Concerned, I asked Tabby if she saw you last period. She told me she didn't. She even said that she didn't see you, Lincoln, Luan, or Lynn. That's strange because it is you guys that always go to school together.

Is something going on at home? Is there something you want to discuss? Are you afraid? Is it...is it...is it about that thing I explained earlier in the week?

Listen, baby. I hope that you didn't take it out of verbatim. I only mentioned it out of concern. Anyway, I have to go. Lunch break is over. Please call me as soon as you can. I am worried. Call me.

August 25, 3:56 PM

Luna, this is going too far. Something is wrong. I know we have our scuffles, but this is nowhere near like you. Please believe me when I told you to not take what I have said seriously. If it makes you feel better, I only said because one of Lincoln's friend mentioned it to me in strict confidence. I can't keep secrets. I wear my heart on my sleeve. If it was concerning him, then he should have informed you or somebody. You are my love and especially something like this hit close to home, then you have the right to know. Right?

Right? Please answer me? I don't think she is capable of doing anything he mentioned to me. You know, Clyde is a worrywart. He goes to therapy on a constant. Who knows what kinds of meds he is taking right now? Maybe he told me because he wanted to know if I saw anything. I am not sure. I am never around your house often. But please believe that I wasn't trying to hurt you about your sister. You know I will never throw salt about Leni, Lori, Lynn, Lucy, any one of your sisters. Once we are together, that is it. So, I want to make my peace with this. I am on my way to the house. I know it is wrong to intrude, but we must settle this. I haven't heard or seen from you in two days. I must know and I am gonna find out. I love you, baby. Please, answer me.

Hey, Luna. I am at the front of your house. I am sitting out here to see if anybody would at least check through the blinds or something. So far, I see nothing. Call me a fool, but I just don't know what to do. I have never been in this type of situation before. I love you, Luna. I care about you. It worries me. So, I am getting out of this car to come inside. I hope you don't mind. I just wanted you to hear me out. Let me explain what's going on. If you don't want to talk about, then I will leave. I won't leave until I hear it from you.

Sam hangs up the phone. She walks to the front steps of the porch. She knocks of the door. "Hello? Hello," she says with a concerning tone. "Is anybody home?" There is no answer. She gives another knock on the door. But, there is nothing to return. Finding defeat, she walks back to the front porch. Upon walking, she discovers that a bundle of newspapers on the ground.

If they are not going to pick up their newspapers, then why bother buying them. These have to be at least three days old. Alas, that is none of my business.

What she discovers is that the family van isn't there. She doesn't jump to conclusions. The family van is heavily used, so any of them can have the vehicle at this point in time. However, something in her spirit is telling her that something is wrong. She isn't much of a spiritualist, but she can sense when an aura isn't right.

I am going to walk around the back if I can check something out. Normally, they leave a spare house key if one of them were to lock themselves out. Or if Leni wanted to be cute. I still couldn't forget the time when we caught her sneaking out of the shed. She was blushing red. I would be too if I was only in my panties. I still couldn't figure why Lincoln was out there? Knowing for him being the fearless knight, he was probably trying to chase the boy away.

She scans the backyard, seeing if she can find a spare key.

Let's see. Let's see. If I am the typical modern teen, where would I put it? Voila, under the trash can.

She picks the spare key. She smiles as she holds the very thing that can answer her problem with Luna. She takes sharp breaths, calming herself down for she knows that this is technically home invasion. Nevertheless and in her defense, the rocker teen is worried about her girlfriend. Her objective is to open the door and see if there are any presence. If there is, then she will leave.

She puts her hands around the door. She feels chills as she puts the key into its slot. She takes a deep breath before opening the door. The moment she opens the door, she is might with strong fumes from the kitchen.

She coughs, covering her mouth with her arms. She has smelled this scent before. "Gas! That is gas leaking. Oh my God!"

She runs from the back porch and heads to her car. She reaches for her cell phone and phones the police. She tells police that there is a strong odor of gas coming from the residence. She tells them that she is unsure of who was in the house. They tell her to wait until the ambulance comes. She hangs up the phone.

Stricken with worry, the teen returns to the backyard. She is in the position of the kitchen door. Fearing for the worst, she reaches her cell phone to call Luna.

Please don't ring. Please don't ring. Please don't ring.

She hears "My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark" from Fall Out Boy from within the house. That song is Luna's ringtone on her cell phone. It is also she and Luna's song. It rings loudly from within. Sam has her hands on the phone until she hears it stop.
