That night Jenny slept really bad, Paul wasn't home and his phone laid on the ground. She only could think about Paul. She takes her phone and calls John he's the closest friend of Paul, so maybe he has a clue..

---------

John picks up the phone "hello?"

"John? Help me! Paul is lost!" The other side of the phone sounds panicking.

"Jenny?" He asks, to make sure she's the panicking voice he's hearing.

"Yes" She replies stressful.

"okay, when did you see him for last time?" John asks worried.

"Yesterday, when i went shopping for food, he wanted to cook dinner that night, but when i called that I lost my money.. Which I still haven't back, he didn't pick up!" Jenny tells, how further she tells how more guiltiness her voice takes.

John notices the guiltiness in her voice. "If you think this is your fault, it really isn't. I will look for him okay?" John says comforting.

Jenny starts sobbing "okay John.." Elsa starts crying, she misses her father.

"I will find him Jenny, no worry. Talk to you later." John says and he hangs up.

Emma stands behind him, holding Sean, "What's going on?" She asks concerned.

"Paul is lost." John replies quickly. "And I'm going to fins him back." He follows his sentence after a little breath.

Emma nods concerned. She cradles Sean. "When got he lost?"

"Yesterday" John replies when he puts his coat on to look for Paul.

---------

Jenny is waiting desperately on Paul, she looks out of the window and called the police about him being lost. That moment Paul's phone starts shaking, he got an  text messenger. She thinks about if she should look, then thinks it might be a hint and looks but it's only a sign that he has tomorrow a appointment at the dentist. She sighs.

Elsa starts crying again, Jenny picks her up and cradles her. "I miss dadaaaa" she cries out.

"Sssh, he comes back soon..." Jenny tries to calm her down.

"Wheeeeen!??!?" Elsa cries out, less loud then the last time.

"I don't know, but I'm sure it's soon." Jenny says, and all she does is just hoping she's right and Paul would be fine.

Elsa calms down eventually and just clings onto Jenny's chest.

A new text messenger comes into Paul's phone. Jenny looks at it without thinking it could be some pointless thing. 'HELP' the text says and she panics. But also wonders why Paul would send it to his own phone instead of hers. She looks at the phone number which the messenger got from. It's an unknown number, well maybe... She knows the phone number.

She texts John with her own phone, knowing he's finding Paul, and she just can't go because of Elsa, she can't worry her little girl anymore then that's she's doing right now. 'JOHN! I got a text saying HELP it's from this number +44 123456789! That's not Paul's  number! Help!' She texts John.

'OMG! I'm trying to find Paul.' John replies the phone messengers

Jenny tries not to break down. she tries it for Elsa, she should keep strong for her little girl. she needs to. no matter how much she feels like crying she just can't do it. it will make Elsa cry uncomfortably.

---------

John tries as hard as he can to look for Paul, he calls him, he looks around, but he can't find him anywhere, he's just lost, he starts to panic and runs as a crazy lost kid around the town, calling for Paul's name but no-where he can find him.

he's lost. just completely lost. John wants to give up, there's no hope, he knows nothing, just nothing, tears are running down his face. "PAUL" he shouts out loud, so much power that nearly the whole town can hear him. But... there is no reply, no sign of life.
