Every Rose Chapter Four

Andrew picked me up the next morning and we drove to meet Rose's parents.

Rose's mom was a mess but her father seemed to be keeping it together as much as a father could.

"What do you know?" The man asked.

Andrew sighed, "we don't know a lot yet but I promise you we are doing everything we can to catch her."

"Is there anything you can tell us that might help?" I add.

"My daughter was a sweetheart, good grades. She didn't deserve a death like ."

"Why did she move to Idaho?" I took the lead as Andrew leaned back in his chair.

"She wouldn't really say," he said with a frown. "She always gave vague answers, or changed the subject. I let her go since she was a adult. I should of made her stay."

"You can't blame yourselves. No one forces another to take a innocent life. Do you think she moved here for a boy maybe?"

"I doubt it." Her mother shocked me. "We don't know anyone who has moved to Idaho before."

I nod, and note that. "There was no sign of breaking and entering. Was your daughter very trusting?"

Her father shook his head, "no. We raised her to be very careful."

"Did she mention meeting anyone here? It looks like she was getting ready for a date, or maybe a night out."

"She never said a thing." Her mother whispered. "Going out wasn't really her thing. She preferred to stay in on weekends and read. She had a great love for books," a sniffle escaped the older woman.

"Is there anything else you can think of?"

They both shook their heads.

Andrew rose from the table and I quickly followed. When we were in the hall he turned to me. "They had a very secretive daughter."

I nod, "now we're at a stand still."

"What if the laptop doesn't hold any answers either?"

"We never found a phone did we?"

He frowned and pulled out his car keys. I motioned for him to lead the way.
