Lauren's 22nd Birthday Group chat.

C: It's almost been 48 hours since Lauren has been seen. 

T: Not to be off topic but Dinah you have my debit card. I let you use it the other night to buy drinks do you think I could have it back when we see eachother?

D: Oh yeah sure. I found it in my jacket pocket yesterday. I'll give it back soon. 

N: God I can't believe all this is actually happening. 

T: Someone has to know where she is...but who?

C: I'm not going to work today. I've been up all night worried sick.

T: Me too Mila. I hardly slept. I kept thinking about her, and what could of happened to her. Going over different scenarios in my head...

C: Let's not talk about them, I don't want to think about anything bad yet. We need to stay positive. 

C: I'm going to make posters today and post them all around New York, you know for people who doesn't see the news. 

T: Everything helps Mila. Is Dinah going to help?

C: No she's visiting family today. I don't think I want anyone around anyway. 

T: Well just let me know if you need help.

11:30AM

C: The police are here.

N: The police? What do they want?

C: I have no idea...

T: Let us know what's going on. 

12:24PM

C: So they went through Lauren's room to see if there were any clues as to where she is. They also asked me lots of questions about her emotions lately and if there was any reason why Lauren ran away.

T: Is what they think? She ran away?

C: I think they're just going over options.

T: I hope she shows up before tomorrow. It's her actual birthday..

C: Oh god, I forgot about that. Tomorrow is going to be awful. Imagine what her parents are going through. 

T: What about the CCTV camera from the S bar?

C: it just shows where she went. It just backs up what I said though. You see her and I outside, Im talking to a friend. She wonders off, out of the frame and they aren't sure where she went after that. They're talking to other businesses near by to see if they have any CCTV footage, but that could take days.

7:10PM

C: I hung some posters up around the city. 

T: Fuck guys I just watched the news...and there was a body food in bridgestone park....

C: You don't think that's her do you?

N: Please not her. It can't be...

T: Of course it's Laur! Who else would that be? This explains everything. Why she's not talking to us, and why she hasn't be online. It makes sense you know...

D: No fucking way. What is going on?

T: I knew something happened to her. My gut was telling me that, I just didn't wanna believe it. 

D: It doesn't say it's her. Let's not jump to conclusions. 

T: Are you guys that stupid...It's her. That park isn't far from you is it Camila?

C: Just about a 4 minute walk. Right close by.

N: Okay this is scary... but Dinah is right. We can't jump to conclusions, especially not about something like this. Have you heard from her mother?

C: She's calling me now. 

C: Her parents are on a plane right now. They're coming to identify the body.. The police has asked them too. 

N: Oh my god.

T: No fucking way. I knew something was wrong. 

C: Her mom cried on the phone and I couldn't do anything but cry back. 

N: You're brave Mila, I couldn't do it. 

D: Do you want to come over to your place Mila?

C: Please DJ. I'm so upset.

D: On my way be there in an hour.
