Read Between The Lines

For about an hour today...I didn't know where Macy was and I completely freaked out was somewhat concerned.  I immediately realized that she had most likely been kidnapped and I would never see her again  that there must be a logical explanation as to why she didn't come home after school.  Her brother was supposed to bring her home from school but he left her there when she didn't come out to the car fast enough he patiently waited for her in the parking lot and she never came out so he left.  I texted everyone she knows Patrick, Zoe and Amber.  Zoe and Amber were freaking out more than I was were such a calming influence.  Everyone I talked to told me completely different theories the same story.  Last time they  had talked to Macy she said she did not have rehearsal after school and she told Max not to leave school without her which he somehow thought meant to go ahead and leave and she would find a ride home.  So naturally, I pictured her walking out alone to the parking lot after Max left because in my mind it's dark and deserted in the Lamar parking by 3:15 and accepting a ride home from that guy in my nightmares who wears a trench coat and writes dark poetry and drives a converted Good Times party van someone she didn't know.  I was SO angry relieved when we finally heard from her and found out that she actually did have to stay for rehearsal  I couldn't wait to yell at her and make her understand how worried we all were hug her.  Max was so happy too and I could tell by the way he immediately said, "This is SO not my fault" "I love you, Macy and I am happy you are OK."  And, I could tell Macy felt horrible too by the way she Tweeted, "Jeez - all of Arlington was looking for me...#totespopular" "I'm so sorry to have alarmed everyone but thank you for your concern!"
