So close yet so far
Abby smirked as she placed the file on Tim's desk. "Read it and weep" he looked up at her.
"What did you do?" he asked opening the file, she place on his desk.
"Me nothing Josh the detective I hired to watch Tony's house did" she smiled as he looked through the pictures. He rolled his eyes, this proved nothing she could have made these in Photoshop.
"Doesn't prove a thing you could have made these up. Abby give it up there's nothing to find just face it. It's not Kate, she'd dead let leave it that way." Abby glared at him. He saw this and got up to give her a hug.
"I know how much you want this to be Kate I know how much you miss her but maybe you have to face the fact that; she is actually dead and never coming back. Abby there is nothing in those pictures that proves that it is Kate. Just some one who looks like her. Every one has some one who looks like them. And from the distance the pictures are taken it could be a number of people."
He looked at the pictures in front of him, she looked so different yet, he could still tell who she was. He smiled glad she was happy and safe but most of all loved. He closed the file and put it in his draw as his door opened.
"Where they the best pictures you got?" he nodded the women in front of him sighed thanked him and paid him one last time. Then walked out, he smiled. She didn't know how close she had come to the truth to knowing her hunch was right. Maybe it was luck, or even fate that he had gotten this case. Abby was a nice person, and he hated lying to her, he really did. But that was his life now one big lie.
He looked over at the picture to his right his family his siblings. All smiling back at him of happier times, in the middle sat Kate. Gavin Todd smiled yes he'd keep those pictures that were locked in his draw. Especially the one of his sister kissing her boyfriend, and the one person she'd told what had to happen the one person who was keeping her safe, and keeping her secret. That Caitlin Todd was alive.
