CH 7 - Missing

Kit POV

"You should be grateful the hotel isn't going to press charges."

It was a good thing they didn't want to take it further, I did try telling Beam but no, when did he ever listen to me?

"Inspector, I'm telling you." Beam bangs his fist on the table. "Something fishy is going on in that hotel, they won't tell me where my brother is."

"It's called data protection..."

"I'm his brother, he doesn't need protection from me."

I sigh, still worried about the missing third idiot of our doctor gang. We arrived late and got a room at the same place Pha was staying and tried getting information about him but they refused to tell us anything.

Beam decided to charm a female receptionist into showing us the CCTV footage from the day Pha arrived. If he wasn't a doctor, he would have tried being a PI, he loved the old films and they always got hot girls.

Pha walked down the stairs and just froze, if I didn't know better, I would say someone used a freeze ray on him. He talked to someone one dressed in a blue suit, nice hair, shorter then Pha and it seemed like he didn't want to go but an announcement made him. We didn't see the guys face, just his back, was that who he met? Before we managed to get anything more, the manager showed up and things got, well complicated.

"You should have come to us first." The inspector tells Beam.

"We did." Beam tells the man. "The other guy said he was an adult. Its been over 24 hours, I demand you send out a search party and inform all stations in the country he's missing and alert the airports...."

"Look, I'll make a report..."

"What's a report going to do?" Beam's losing it.

I stomp on his foot, hard. He yelps, gives me a death glare but sits down as I turn to smile at the guy across the table from me.

"Please excuse him, we're just really worried about Phana he's never done anything like this before." I tell the inspector. "I know he's a grown-up, but isn't there anything you can do?"

The man sighs but smiles tiredly at me and nods. "Okay boys, let's start from the beginning."

Boys? He looked barely older than us. We, no Beam tells him everything in order giving details when asked. He even shows the man the threatening message he sent Pha today, what would happen if he didn't call us. Personally, I was expecting the phone to ring 2 seconds later after that threat but Pha hasn't read it yet. That's not normal, we check our phone immediately in case of emergency.

When I try to say something Beam sends me out to get coffee for the nice inspector, who happily instructs me on the café around the corner. Apparently, the coffee here being terrible is the truth the films get right.

I stomped on his foot so I did owe him so I go, and I might strangle him if he cuts me off again. I find the café and make the order, offering a polite smile when the girl tries to flirt; I'm not in the mood right now. It's not that busy, one other person waiting for an order.

I feel tired again, I need sleep but I have to go back and make sure Beam doesn't do anything drastic. He was too friendly with the inspector, he may quit being a doctor and join the police in his epic search for his lost brother. I needed Pha to come back and tell him to shut it, Beam only listened to him.

I quickly move back when a waiter drops his tray, avoiding the hot liquid but manage to hit someone, knocking their drink over their hand. I grab some tissues and wipe it looking closely for a burn.
