Who Will Find Them
Chapter 6 Bethany sat on a hard folding metal chair. She scanned the bare, drab grey, windowless walls, looking for anything that would offer her comfort, but found nothing except for an old round analog wall clock clicking away the minutes. Three banks of fluorescent lights ran across the ceiling. Their constant flickering and buzzing made Beth want to throw something at them, but even if she had something to toss, which she didn’t, she knew better than to do it. The only other furniture in this chamber was a metal desk devoid of anything, with an old-style desk phone, a pad of 8 x 11 lined paper sitting on top of a manilla file folder, and a ballpoint pen. The desk chair looked slightly more comfortable than the one she was sitting on, but not by much.

Penny Dreadful Chapter 4
Prologue Dear Diary, That feeling from a month ago has finally started to go away. The terrible gas station explosion news still makes me sad but there’s not a lot of that news anymore. I think I’ll stop watching the news for a while. The talk about the crop blaze a few villages over gave me mixed feelings. I got over it by seeing Mr. Joe at his new bakery. He looks happier.

Who Will Find Them?
Jake had a four-hour drive to mull over all the different ways he might convince the people at Safe Haven that he was simply a concerned individual who wanted to check on the young girl he managed to rescue from a trafficker. No matter how he adjusted the scenario in his mind, 50/50 was the best odds he could come up with. What Jake finally realized was that he needed some help from an outside source; possibly someone from the media. Hopefully, the incident wouldn’t be considered yesterday’s news. Out of the throngs of media pursuing him yesterday , he hoped at least one reporter might be interested in a human-interest follow-up piece.

Who Will Find Them
You would think that after such an eventful day , Jake would have slept straight through the night, but that wasn’t the case. Beth’s tear-streaked face and pleading eyes kept intruding on his rest. How could anyone be so cruel to a child and cause them that much pain? It was the question he kept replaying over and over in his mind. Jake knew it made no sense, but he felt responsible for this young girl whom he had only met briefly. She wasn’t his sister, or even some long-lost cousin, but the hug she had given him just before they parted formed a lasting bond in his heart.
