Carter and Travis horse played with each other as they walked out to the black Chevy Tahoe, with tinted windows of course. When they got in the vehicle Travis jabbed Carter in the abdomen one last time.
"Okay truce!" giggled Carter. He worked out all the time and barely felt the jab.
There was a moment of silence and then Travis turned on the interior light to go over his notes.
"Something seems kind of fishy about all of this."
"Yeah, it left me with a bad taste in my mouth." Said Carter," But definitely not from the coffee. That coffee was delicious!"
Carter kept both hands on the wheel as Travis carefully examined his short hand notes.
"It sounds to me like Tina may have kidnapped herself." Said Travis.
"I don't know. He got all pissy with us when we mentioned his wife. Maybe she had something to do with it."
"Yeah, I wonder why she wasn't home?"
"I dunno." Said Carter while constantly turning his head. He kept his gaze on the ritzy neighborhood surrounding them.
It seemed like every lawn had lawn ornaments and the sidewalks were cleaner than a dinner plate.
"So what about her boyfriend? Doesn't it seem odd that the night he doesn't jog with her she turns up missing?"
"You heard her father say that she was upset with him. They're probably over at her boyfriend's house laughing their butts off." Said Travis.
When the Tahoe veered right and merged onto the highway Carter put the pedal to the medal. They were FBI agents. They could drive as fast as they wanted to. Carter turned on the radio to his favorite rock station and took in a deep breath.
"Well, we still have a job to do. Tomorrow we're going to pay a visit to Tina's boyfriend."
