“Hey Marvin,” Bobbi approached the old man at some indeterminate time, still wearing the maid outfit and still not a tomato. “Your neighbor…it’s Tabitha Goodfellow, right?”

"Yes..." Marvin nods at Bobbi. "I was wondering if you could be the Roberta that she had been telling me about."
He shakes his head.
"That police report... It got to be fake, right? Given what I witnessed that night, I assumed that she left to go see her friend." The elderly man explained as he crosses his arms.

“See, I’m worried about that too,” Bobbi crossed her arms, “But there’s a bit more to the story than that. Two weeks ago, Tabitha was supposed to take a trip to come meet me, but she never showed up! And…every time I called her, she wouldn’t pick up. I’ve been trying not to worry about it, but seeing her name come up here has made me expect the worst.”
She seemed to brighten up a little from getting her worries off her chest.
“Do you remember what happened that night? Because that would have been the night she left to see me.”

"Oh, you wanted to know more about the night she left, given that I might know something?" Marvin asked, also sharing the same concern that Bobbi does. "I guess she didn't tell you about what she was dealing with."
He looks to Bobbi.
"Let me tell you about what Tabitha have been dealing with you'll understand what happened better." Marvin cleared his throat as he began to explain. "Tabitha have been dealing with a stalker. I don't know when it first happened, but anyway that night..."
"That night, I decided to help Tabitha with her problem. So, I looked around the apartment building at night to make sure they don't hurt her. Can you imagine how devastated I would be if something bad happened to her? She's one of the nicest people I have known, so I figure she is so special."
"I was heading back to the apartment building when I saw a figure in the dark. I figured that it was her stalker... Well, I didn't see their face, but they were wearing a black hoodie. They must've noticed me as they hurried quickly away from me. I called out to them, telling them to come back. They didn't hear me, though... I thought that if they went home, then I did help Tabitha. Her stalker had been insistent over the past few days, and this was the closest I've seen of them." The elderly man rubs the back of his neck with a hand.
"What happened next was that I was blinded by a flash. I ended up on the side of the road, as my eyes were having a very bad time adjusting to the dark. I knew that I can't see, and I feared that I might be blind. That's when I heard the rumble of an engine from far away."
"Slowly, I was able to see. I went back to the apartment building. So, I decided to check on my neighbor and... Tabitha wasn't in her apartment. Her stuff is gone and so were her car keys. Thankfully, her cats, Dusty and Shoe are doing okay. I thought it was weird that Tabitha didn't tell me what she was up to. I wish I have her phone number..."
"And that's pretty what I remembered of that night." The elderly man said as he concluded his retelling of the night.

Bobbi’s face gradually lost its color as Marvin recounted the tale.
“No…she didn’t tell me anything like that,” Bobbi said. “Was that why she wanted to meet me so suddenly? I mean, in my business you deal with your fair share of creeps, but nothing like that…”
She leaned against the nearest wall and held a hand to her forehead.
“Ugh, I wish there was something I could do. She could be in danger, or dead even…B-But, I guess our kidnapper knows about this, so maybe they’re involved somehow? Could the stalker be here with us? I don’t know what to think anymore…”

Marvin seems to mull over what Bobbi have said before his eyes widen in realization.
"Oh no... Come to think of it, I think some of us mentioned, back when we first met, what our kidnapper was wearing..." He paused to think about what people have said. "A black hoodie was what the kidnapper was wearing... If the stalker I saw was wearing a black hoodie, then that must mean..."
"I pray that Tabitha is okay! She had to be!" He seems concerned for Tabitha.

"Yeah, I thought about how Tabitha might have been brought in this game, considering she's come up before," Bobbi replied. "But if so, where could she be? Surely she's not Sophilia, right? I tried talking to her earlier, and she still has her memories, and she didn't sound anything like Tabitha at all..."
