Sammy and Don

"Last one," Sammy said.

It was 2:00 AM and they had just come back from six hours of sleep to get a jump on the day. The last half hour they had been interviewing the people who worked the same shifts as April Evans.

"Haley Mae," Sammy added.

Don looked up and stopped writing in his little notebook. "How do you," spell her name, he had meant to ask Sammy, but she was right in front of him.

"EM, A, E," she said with a smile.

"Vietnamese?" Don asked. She was obviously mixed race, African American and Asian, he questioned himself.

"Japanese," she told him.

"Nice name," Sammy said, "Haley."

Beautiful girl, Don thought. "Did you know April Evans? Sometimes works this shift?" he asked.

"Not really," she answered. "I mean I met her, but only in passing... I just started here myself."

She really was beautiful, Don thought. "You wouldn't know if she had a boyfriend... Other friends?" he asked.

Haley shook her head. "Sorry," she said... "What has she done?"

"Nothing. She's gone missing," Sammy supplied.

"She was an eye witness to a serious case and then went missing," Don said. "She's not in trouble we just want to ask her a few questions... And, really make sure she's okay."

Haley shook her head. "I just started here a few weeks back, and like I said, I don't really know her... But I heard it might be a girlfriend not a boyfriend though."

Don looked at her. "You wouldn't know who?"

"No. It's just a rumor. Someone said to me... I don't even remember who... But I've never seen her with a guy. And I have seen her with other girls... Maybe also the way she looked at me a few times... That's all I know. I hope you find her though. She seems like a nice girl," Haley said.

“You don't seem the type for this... Bagging groceries at 2:00 am,” Don said.

Haley laughed. “I had this idea of dancing... Tough to get a foot in a door though.”

“Any good,” Sammy asked.

“Excuse mister smooth there,” Don told her. Sammy feigned a hurt look and Haley laughed. “He meant have you done some dancing? I know somebody... Might be interested.”

Haley arched her eyebrows. “I can dance. I just need to prove it to the right person.”

“Probably start out serving drinks... Dance a little... Then if he likes you he'll put you in.”

“I can do that,” she said slowly.

Sammy passed her a white business card with his own name scrawled across the back. “Tell him I sent you... That's my name on the back.”

“Jimmy Vincioni,” Haley asked.

“Just V... Jimmy V. Good guy,” Sammy said.

Haley nodded and tucked the card into her front jean pocket. “I'll call him... Thanks. Look...” Her voice dropped to a near whisper. “I'm pretty sure she had a girlfriend here... I just don't know who,” Haley added quietly.

Don finished writing in his notebook, nodded once he met her eyes and then shook the hand she offered. She walked away.

"Beautiful," Sammy said.

"Absolutely," Don agreed. “You ain't getting none of that though.
