Since the day of her birth, a close family friend has been invited each

unaware of this and do not know of his mental disorder. Few months
after her sixteenth birthday she is abducted from her family home
garden, whilst walking home from school. Now she has been missing
for over 20 years and is not aware of her location. Throughout the
duration of her being gone, the family friend stays close within the
investigation and gives full sympathy and support to the family.
Making sure to stay out of the suspect queue. For over 20 years the
family friend stayed close to her family and still does, hoping one day

her forever.

and current moments of the girl who has been abducted. The girl is
now in her forties and still in living in the same room as she was when

slowly applying make-up on her face in a disturbed way. Whilst she is
doing this, flashbacks will be shown of the day she was abducted: her
walking from school, being happy and then suddenly being grabbed
viciously. Then, the door handle will shake fast enough to scare the
woman as she becomes shocked.
