Gavin has been my slave for six months now. His parents have come by on multiple occasions to see if I heard from him. The first time they came was the worst. The doorbell rang followed by a loud knock.
"Hey, hey, come on, it's a nice door and we want to keep it!" I said when I answered it.
"Have you heard from Gavin?" Mrs McGuinnus sobbed.
"No, Gavin and I are through, why?"
"He's gone missing." Mr McGuinnus answered and I put my hand on his cheek.
"I'm sure it's nothing to worry about."
"Not now, William." he muttered pushing my hand away.
"I'll let you if I hear anything. Come by anytime." Then I turned back to Michael. "Anytime at all."
"Thanks." Michael said defensively as he put his arm around his weeping wife and they went home.
