Alice exhaled as she came out from the passenger seat.

"Hey, Al, I guess I’ll leave it all to you now. Call me if you need anything. And good luck!" With that Shane hugged Alice and drove away.

Alice made her way to the elevator. As it stopped at the floor that Dana’s stayed, she walked out with her legs shaking. She was thinking about how to make it up to Dana after she had slapped her, not once but twice. She kicked herself in her mind as she should have listened to Dana first before making the drastic move. And it hurted her too. She slapped her really hard, and when she left Dana alone at the street she could see Dana’s cheek was all red at the impact. Her heart was aching at the pain on Dana’s cheek. She arrived and was now standing in front of the door. She exhaled and knocked onto it lightly. After a few knocks, there was still no sign of Dana opening the door. She knocked harder. Shit, she wasn’t in her room. Where would she go? It’s not like she has a lot of friends in LA. Shit! Shit! Shit! Alice cursed under her breath. She immediately made her way to the receptionist.

"Hey, I am looking for Dana Fairbanks at room 5-18 but she’s not in. May I know when did she go out?"

"Hi, hmmm, let me check." Alice waited impatiently.

"Hmm, yeah, her keys are with us. She dropped them over this morning."

"Ohh, thanks."

Shit! Shit! Shit! Was all Alice could say. Her handphone is with me, where could she go? After a while she thought she might as well go back to her place and wait. Maybe Dana will call her later, she thought. She made a mental note that if Dana still didn’t call or show up after tomorrow morning, she would call the cops. She got into a cab and headed home.

Alice sighed as she looked out from the window.Oh my god, please don’t tell me she’s heading back to London already. As she was kicking herself in her mind, she saw a familiar car parked in front of a convinient store.Gossshhh, that’s the car Dana borrowed from her friend on our dates. Hey, can you please pull over at the side now??
