Chapter 4: Rosalina's Gone
Thomas has been sitting at the library for an hour. Rosalina was late, which was very unusual for her. Yes, Thomas did arrive 15 minutes later then when Rosalina told him to but she still should have been there before him. Thomas decided to call her dad to see if she knew where she was.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Mr. DiMeco, it's Thomas. Is Rosalina home by any chance?"
"No, I have not seen her since before school this morning. I figured she was with one of you guys. Have you tried her cell?"
"Yeah, a couple of times. I'll see if she's with one of the other guys."
"Please keep me posted Tom."
"Will do sir. Goodbye.
"Goodbye."
After Thomas called David, Qaasim, and Cooper, nobody knew the whereabouts of Rosalina. Thomas was starting to get worried. What if she was hurt? He decided he had to call Nat.
"Hey Thomas."
"Hey Nat, I gotta tell you something."
"What's up?"
"Well, I know Rosalina's a sore subject with you and Alex right now but she didn't show up to work on our project. She's over an hour late and that's not like her at all. I'm just worried she's hurt. So, do you know where she might be?"
"I … I'm … not sure. But thanks for calling me."
"No problem Nat. I'll talk to you later."
"Bye."
Little did Thomas know, Nat was practically mourning over losing Rosalina the way he did. He was looking through all the pictures he owned of them together. Suddenly, Nat knew where she was. He stuffed the picture of her location in his pocket and started to call people for a ride. Finally, he was able to convince Patrice to give him a ride.
