Not sure what to do, Yvonne calls the local police department and reports Twane as missing.  "ma'am...." The police officer says. " ma'am... I know that you are upset... I understand that your baby is missing, but... Ma'am please calm down... We can't file a missing persons report unless she has been missing for 48 hours or more... Yes, even though she is a baby. I am really sorry ma'am. "

Yvonne then calls Adam and tells him that Twane is missing. " I am leaving work right now! I'll be there in about 20 minutes honey."

Twenty minutes later, just like Adam had said, he is home. Adam finds Yvonne in the nursery crying. Her blood shot eyes suggest that she has been crying for at least an hour.

" Do you have any idea at all where she could possibly be? Or who the hell would've taken her? And an even better question, how the hell did they take her without you noticing?" Still crying, " I don't know..." Sobbing even Harder now. "I don't know Adam... I wish I knew, I really do."

.........................................................

That night, Yvonne heard Twane's muffled screams. Tried as she did, she could not find Twane, neither could she find where the sound of her crying was coming from, although it sounded like her crying was coming from inside the walls.

After 3 hours of searching for the source of the  sound Yvonne eventually came to the conclusion that she was starting to go crazy and having hallucinations.

Not being able to sleep and feeling utterly powerless, Yvonne  decides to take a walk around the neighborhood to clear her head.

As Yvonne reaches the graveyard, she decides to go visit the grave of her deceased daughter, Brooklyn. Brooklyn was born premature and died after 5 months on life support.
Next to her grave, her father was buried like he requested in his will, when he dies he should be buried next to daughter, Brooklyn.
