Nadine walked down the street toward her church. She was incredibly worried. Her mother had been missing for days. They'd filed a police report, but so far nothing.
She was on her way to pray for her mother's safe return when suddenly...she spotted her mother across the street, walking in the other direction. She ran across the street. "Mom?" She called.
Laura kept walking until Nadine stopped her. "Mom," Nadine repeated.
Then, her mother looked at her, confused. "Excuse me?"
"Mom, where have you been?" Nadine demanded. "Are you all right?"
"I think you've confused me with someone else," Laura said.
"But..." Nadine said. This woman was her mother. She knew what her mother looked like. But there was no recognition in Laura's eyes.
