"Now we're not exactly calling, we're gonna... Facetime. It's what you annoying children do to annoy us adults more."
Davina make an angry face.
"So who do you wanna call first doll face?"
Davina looked down for a moment, thinking who to call first. Tyler, or Jonathan. Mr. Harvey stood there leaning on his side against the wall lighting up another cigarette. "Jonathan." He took a short puff. "Huh?"
"Jonathan.... I wanna call Jonathan first."
"Is that your final answer?"
"Yes." Davina said with puffy eyes and a thick voice from her crying. Mr. Harvey sighed "Alright then, if that's what you want."

PHONE RINGING
"Hey." Jonathan had a thin layer of his beard. He had a plane face. It looked as if he didn't care about life anymore. He could care less. The screen was pitch black. "Hey, you called?" The screen went onto the back camera and all it showed was the camera facing the old dirty wooden floor. "Hey, where are you?" It turned to the front camera and it showed Mr. Harvey. Jonathan's heart stopped, "hey.." He was in complete shock. "What are you doing?! Where is she?!!!" Jonathan's voice started rising in anger. "Now wait a minute. Before I show you, you have to make me a promise. You have to promise that you will remain calm, you won't say anything, and you won't go looking for her. If you break your promise, she will die and you and your family."
"Okay." He had a face of anger. Mr. Harvey switch the camera, and there was Davina. She was sitting in the corner crawled up. Her eyes were puffy, her hair was messed up and tangled, her fingernails and knuckles were bleeding, her mouth was duck taped, and her hands and feet were tied up with rope. She looked up at the camera and back down. "Hey Davina, you wanna tell Jonathan why your here?" Mr. Harvey removed the tape from her mouth. Her lips we're chapped from all the screaming. She kept looking down and a tear rolled down her face. "ANSWER ME!!!.. Fine I'll tell him. I got her here because she has the extra copies of all the evidence I've done. She has that extra copy to someone. And I thought who might have it. You or your little buddy. Problem is I don't who?! You wanna tell me who has that extra copy?!"
"I don't have it."
"How do I know?"
"If I had it, I would've already given it to you or I would've given it to the cops."
"How do I know you didn't give it to the cops?!" Mr. Harvey started getting angry.
"Don't you think that if I would've given it to the cops, I wouldn't be here right now and someone would've been there?? Yeah. Well I don't have it."
"Well I'll make you a deal."
"What?!"
"I'll give you until tomorrow to tell me whether or not you wanna save her. Once you give me your answer, she'll either die or I'll tell you how you can save her. Don't call me, I'll call you. I will know if someone else is there or not. So don't try and pull anything on me." Mr. Harvey hung up. "Do you wanna call Tyler next, or wait for Jonathan?"
