Somewhere in my mind I always knew that it wasn't drugs. And it felt like it was all true or maybe I was going crazy.

I cut the call

And started searching the entire house starting with the bedroom. I threw the mattress out, removed all the clothes from the closet but there was no luck.

I went to the kid's bedroom next and didn't find anything, I just made a mess.

Next, I went downstairs and threw everything out of the kitchen, but did not find anything. I wanted all this to make sense but it didn't make any.

I know I didn't take any drugs and I'm unable to find anything in the house, it just made me feel like I was crazy.

But I didn't give up, I opened all the boxes from the attic, I screwed open the TV.

I was tearing the house apart like a maniac from the morning

And now its 8:00 pm at the night

I was sitting in the middle of the living room and thinking where it could be.

And suddenly the doorbell rang

It was Tracy.

I opened the door partially

" Hey Tracy, what's up"

Tracy: You were alone and not lifting any of your brother's calls, so we were worried and I brought you dinner.

" oh, I was kind of busy"

She gave me a different look,

Tracy: What are you hiding Daniel?

" Me, hehe nothing"

Tracy: let me come in then

" No, the house is all mess

I need to clean it"

Anyhow she didn't listen to me and pushed the door and came in.

Tracy: What the hell is this Daniel?

What happened to you?

" its nothing, it's about that case"

Tracy: Tell me then, how is this mess related to the case.

I have all the updates on this case via Jonathan.

" I can't Tracy

Everyone will think I'm crazy"

Tracy: nobody will think you're crazy daniel, you need to talk

You've been staying alone for 2 months and YOU NEED TO TALK!

" you won't understand, this case is darker than you think it is"

Tracy: Well then, I should call Sarah

She took out her phone and started calling Sarah

" wait! NO, I'll tell you everything. get in"

I told her everything that happened and everything that is happening with me and she wasn't surprised.

Jonathan was really giving out information to his wife.

Tracy: Just stay the night at our house with us. I don't think we should leave you alone, you were going crazy.

She called Jonathan and told him.

Guess I was going after all.

That night was so peaceful, to be honest.
