Patrick looked at Mamatina and continued,
"One of my assistant said he saw someone that looks like her with a man at an eatery"

"Man, which man?, Are you sure is my daughter that he saw?", Mamatina asked Patrick

"I don't know Mama"

"Hmph..", Mamatina sighed

"But mama, Tina do use to mention about a boyfriend, her boyfriend, do you know that her boyfriend, or where's from?", Patrick asked Mamatina confusingly

"Mm, I don't where is from oo, but I used to see him, he came to see her father and I and said he wants to marry Tina, but since then I have not seen him", Mamatina replied Patrick, and Patrick was quiet.

"Do you think he might know anything about my daughter disappearance?", Mamatina ask Patrick feeling hopeful again.

"Well I don't know Mama, it depends.. but from the way Tina used to talk about him it seem like she liked him, probably she ran away with him and threw away her phone", Patrick assumed out.

"No!, my daughter can't do that", Mamatina immediately refute such thought, remembering how her husband abandoned her for more than how many years..

"I do not raise my daughter to be like that, maybe she was kidnap, or maybe is Chris that came and took her away, because I have told him before that he can't marry my daughter",

"Hmm.. then Mama let go to the police station, do you know where the Chris lives?", Patrick ask Mamatina as he stood up.

Mamatina frowned,"No my son, I don't know where he lives, or his village",

Patrick frowned, wondering where Tina had meet such a man from, he ask again,
"Mama do you know anyone that knows him or has greeted him when you use to see him?".

Mamatina thought about it, if she knew anyone close or related to Chris or as greeted Chris all those time he use to branch at her shade, but none, she does not know him,

"I don't know anyone, he only use to buy some fruits, from me".

"Oo! So mama how do we find him, what if is possible, his the one that kidnapped Tina, I can't believe Tina wouldn't contact you for more than three weeks now", Patrick responded almost breaking down in tears.

"Hmm, I don't know oo, but is like I have his phone number, he gave me his number one time like that, that he bought a phone for my daughter, that she should use it and call him, but before I can even give my daughter his number, he already called her himself on the new phone, so let me check first if I still have his contact", Mamatina said, and she brought out her small phone to check if Chris number is still save there.

Patrick was still standing, wait for Mamatina to check if she still have Tina's boyfriend number, at least his mind will be at rest, and he wouldn't go on with his plans of publishing her photos on all medias, news and television as Missing. He intended doing that if there is no good result from the search in the village police.

Mamatina still checking her phone contact, while Patrick was almost running out of patience

"Mama have you found it, did you remember, what you save the number as?", Patrick asked Mamatina

"Hmm.. yes I think I remember, if I see it I will... I found it", Mamatina beamed happily, "I found his number, I saved it as Tina friend".

Patrick frowned hearing what Mamatina save Tina's boyfriend number as, "let me see it Mama, should we call him, or take his number to the police station?", Patrick ask Mamatina as he stared at the number on the little phone

"I don't know, maybe we should call him and ask him , if he saw Tina, what do you think?", Mamatina suggested as she asked Patrick

"Mama, I don't think that will be a good idea, what if he denies it?", Patrick assumed as he feared the boyfriend might deny the question

"Hmm, we should still call him first, and hear what he as to say, even if he deny not seeing my daughter, I will tell him to come that Tina as been missing am sure he will come", Mamatina agreed with herself, insisting Patrick should dial Tina's boyfriend number.

Patrick dialed the number on Mamatina's phone, but Mamatina does not have calling credit, he frowned
"Mama you don't even have Airtime to call, let me dial the number on my own phone instead, when he picks I will give my phone to you, so you can talk to him, instead of us wasting time and looking for where to buy Airtime" Patrick suggested,

"Okay, dial the phone number on your own phone", Mamatina agreed with Patrick.

Patrick brought out his phone and started typing the phone number he was seeing on Mamatina's small phone, to his greatest surprise the phone number was the same as his best friend, Chris's number, he paused , blink his eyes, and look at the phone numbers again, ensuring that he typed it correctly and it still showed Chris, as the number was already saved as Chris on his own phone before.

Patrick paused not able to dial Chris contact as his hands started shaking and his heart started beating.

Mamatina was still waiting for him to dial Tina's boyfriend number, she wonder what is taking Patrick so long to dial the phone number. Mamatina thought bigger phones do type faster than small phones, so what was delaying Patrick.

Patrick looked down and looked away, looking around for fresh air to blow him, hoping he wasn't seeing double,

"My son, what is it?, Is the number not connecting too in your phone", Mamatina ask him getting worried, "maybe I should go and buy calling card". Mamatina wanted to leave and go look for where to purchase airtime but Patrick immediate stop her

"Mama wait, I have Airtime",

"Eh eh!, So what is the problem, is the number not going?", Mamatina ask him looking worried, thinking probably the number was fake.

"No mama, the number is correct, I haven't dialed it yet", Patrick replied her, just as he breathed out, he couldn't believe what his eyes is seeing, he wondered, is he the same Chris Mamatina was talking about, that is also his friend, that even came to see him of recent , these can't be true, Patrick shaked his head.

"What is it my son, why can't you call the number?", Mamatina inquired

Patrick sighed, "Mama, what do you say his Tina's boyfriend name again?", Patrick ask Mamatina

"Chris, yes, Chris off course, his name is Chris", Mamatina replied Patrick.

Patrick became visibly angry, and Mamatina had to ask,

"What is it, do you know him?".

Patrick look at Mamatina, he couldn't speak, his mouth was almost shaking as he tried to explain the situation, so he nodded and stammered,

"Yes Mama, I think I know him, I typed the number from your phone in mine, and it's showing as Chris on my phone, I have his number, I think I know him".

Mamatina stared at Patrick in Surprise, at least now she understood why he haven't dialed the phone number yet.

"So what should we do, do you know where he lives?", Mamatina ask Patrick

"Yes Mama, his from my village, his my friend, I know him to well, but I still can't believe if his really the one because I saw him last week before traveling down here, I even told him my girlfriend is missing with my child", Patrick almost broke down in tears, not wanting to believe Chris is truly the one behind all these
