"We can't find him in any sort of records, there's no trace of who this man is" an officer explained to Rob.
"Are you fucking serious?" Rob asked, his temper starting to rise.
"We sent his picture to all of the news stations and he's now globally wanted, there are search parties out for him" the officer said.
"Search parties aren't going to find him when we have no leads!" Rob said pounding his fist on the table. "You guys aren't being logical right now! Once this guy sees his face plastered on television screens he's going to run. He's going to hide and cover his tracks better than he already is right now" he explained.
"Sir-"
"Please exit my office" Rob huffed. He left as Rob said, leaving Rob alone in frustration. His phone began to ring and the caller ID read:
"Maggie"
He unhesitatingly answered it and greeted her on the other line.
"Hey honey" he smiled.
"Hey, how's work? You sound upset" She said picking up on his tone of voice.
"Frustrating" he huffed running a hand through his hair.
"I'm sorry to hear that, is it going to be another late night tonight?" She asked with a sigh.
"I think so, did Liz Hemmings call you?" He asked.
"Yes she did, she made an appointment for Luke to come in tomorrow at noon. I'll let you know how it goes" she said.
"Thank you. This case is not going anywhere. I've been researching Michael's case, they closed it three years ago. The police gave up. How could they give up on him?" Rob upsettingly asked.
"Well honey, this man keeps his tracks clean. He's a smart criminal, there was obviously no evidence, and his parents passed away so there was no one else for him" she explained.
"His grandparents are still alive, I researched and tried to contact them but they don't answer when I call" he spoke.
"Keep trying to get a hold of them" Maggie encouraged.
"I will, this just seems hopeless right now. All we have is an unrecognizable face, search teams wandering around with no tracks to follow, no leads, no name, just a stupid face" Rob sighed.
"You can't give up Rob, if it was Lucy that was taken you wouldn't want them to just close the case and leave you and I knowing that our baby is still out there, alive and suffering" Maggie explained.
She was 100% right, Rob loved his baby girl Lucy to death. He spoiled her and loved her like she was the only toddler in the world.
"I know, I'm gonna keep my head up" he said.
"Good. I have to go, I have a session in a few minuets. I'm sorry work is frustrating you" she said.
"It's not your fault, I love you, go take care of your patients" Rob said.
"And you keep searching for Willow and Michael. I love you too, goodbye" she said.
"Bye" Rob said hanging up the phone. He set it next to his computer and rubbed his temples. Nothing could be more stressful than this case in his opinion.
His phone began to ring again, and he looked at the caller ID.
"Liz Hemmings"
He practically jumped for his phone and answered it immediately.
"Hello?" Rob asked.
"Is Luke there? Please tell me my baby Luke is with you" Liz asked though her tears.
"Let me look, calm down, when was the last time you saw him?" Rob asked running out of his office and looking for the tall blonde boy.
"This morning, I made him breakfast and he went into his room and I went to check on him and he's not in there or anywhere around the house. You don't think-"
"No! Liz don't say it" Rob said. "He's not here" Rob said in defeat.
"I can't lose h-him again" Liz said balling her eyes out.
"We will not lose him again. He's somewhere safe and sound, I know it" Rob said. He put his hand over the microphone and told the other officers Luke was missing.
"Please f-find him. I'm o-on my way down" Liz said.
"I'll see you when you arrive, officers are already out on the it, we're gonna bring him home" Rob said. Liz ended the call and Rob slid his phone in his pocket.
He scrunched his hands in a fist and punched the wall. He punched it again, and again, and again, until his knuckles began to bleed.
He punched it once for being so stupid, he punched it twice for the lack of leads, he punched it a third time for the other officers not being any help, he punched it a fourth time for the pain their families were going through.
"DAMN IT" Rob screamed.
"Rob, I think you should go home" one of the officers said.
"NO" he shouted. "I WILL FIND THESE KIDS IF ITS THE LAST THING I DO" he promised.
