Laura P.O.V.
I am laying bed awake thinking about what I have put Helena through since she found me. I've caused her so much pain and all I want to do is stop it. I wait until Helena and Tom are asleep. I  slip quietly out of bed and grab my duffel bag and head out the front door and into the cold London night. I walk along the streets like I did so long ago. I go back to the only place I know. The alley. I sit and I cry. I think about all the pain I've put everyone through and how it has now ruined Helena's life. I take my razor blade out of my pocket and let the cool  metal slide over my skin. "One for Helena, one for Tom, one for Helena, one for Tom." I  think to myself as I do this repeatedly. I do it until I feel nothing and slip into unconsciousness. 

Tom P.O.V. 

I wake up the next morning and realize Laura isn't in bed next to me. I shoot up out of bed and check the kids bedrooms. She's not in there either. I then check the rest of the house with no luck. I then wake Helena. "Helena wake up Laura is gone." I say in a panic. Helena shoots up out of bed and we continue searching with no luck. "Tom relax maybe she just went out to run an errand." Helena says. I can tell from the tone of her voice she doesn't believe a word of it. 

Helena and I have been out searching for Laura all day with no luck and we are both starting to worry. As we walk I see a girl with blonde hair walking toward me. "Excuse me have you seen her?" I ask the girl, showing her a photo of Laura. "No sorry." she says. "Where are you Laura." I think.
