(Day 1: Disappearances; Setting: Your new house; Time: 2:34 p.m.)
You: Hey, Julia, my parents asked if you and me would come over to their house for dinner tonight. Do you want to go?
Julia: Yeah. That sounds good.
(Setting: Your parents' house; Time: 5:43 p.m.)
Mother: So, nice to meet you, Julia.
Julia: Nice to meet you too, Nancy.
You: So, where's Dad?
Mother: I don't know. He left 2 hours ago to get food for the dinner and he never came back. In fact, a lot of people have disappeared lately. It's weird.
Julia: He probably met an old friend or something and they're just talking.
(Time: 7:54 p.m.)
Mother: He's still not home yet. What is with him?
You: I'm sorry Mother, but we have to go home. I'll call you tomorrow to see if anything changed.
