The Payne Family

Chapter 14.

"Daddy, I miss Lulu and mommy."Kate says quietly looking at her untouched cereal.

"I know princess, so do I."I say sighing, usually if Danielle and Lucas were here with us right now, Lucas would be telling us the same jokes that would make no sense but we would still laugh and Danielle would tell us what she's planning to do for the day but sometimes ends up never doing it.

"Kate, eat."I demand pushing her meal towards her, Kate crossed her arms and shaked her head. I'm getting worried about her, she hasn't eaten breakfast and is refusing to eat lunch.

"Do you wanna go to gramma and grandpa's house?"I ask setting the untouched plate on the counter.

"No."Kate hardly whispers, I bend down to her hieght.

"Babe, I miss mommy and Lucas, too. I'm getting worried about you.."I say, Kate frowns and hugs me.

"I want them right now!"Kate cries, I hug her back and softly pat the back of her head.

"Me, too baby, me too."I whisper.

"Be good, and listen okay?"I say hugging Kate, I'm meeting Chris and his team again today.

"I'll be back before you know it."I inform her, Kate nods.

"Please make sure she eats, she really misses Lucas and Danielle.."I tell mom, she nods and hugs me.

"I'm sorry Liam, don't get hurt..she can stay as longs as you want."mom whispers.

"It's fine, thank you mum."I say.

"Bye princess."I say before leaving.

"Liam this Suzie, Diana, Fredi, and Robert."Chris says introducing me to his partners/team.

"Hi."I say shaking all their hands.

"We have a search team searching for..Lucas and Danielle."Fredi informs, well duh!

"But right now, we have some evidence that we'll need you to look at."Diana says going into a room, I follow her with the others following me.

"We have some pictures that we'll need you to look at then we'll start whatever Christopher is planning."Diana says sitting down, she takes a box from under the table and takes a medium-sized stack of pictures.

"We're gonna need to know if you identify any of these."Suzie says taking a seat next to Diana, they hand me the stack and I look through the pictures. I look through the first 2 pictures. They have clothes with..red stains..you could say..on them. I gulp a look through the rest hoping I don't see any clothes that'll match Lucas and/or Dani' s that have blood on them.

I go through half of them until I finally hit one..
