"No, I should be sorry," Abby replied, deflating a little as she moved to sit at a nearby table, sighing as she turned to set her cloak on the next stool. Her hands came up, fingers gently pressing against her closed eyes and she shook her head. "Most of the shops were already closed. I asked around with a few people, but nobody had seen them since this afternoon."
Her hands moved to her lap, idly smoothing down her skirts. "It's possible, but- I don't see how. I don't- I don't know. I can't imagine how nobody could have seen them for so long, even as busy as it is. You know Bridget would be talking to as many as she could." And there wasn't any way they would have gone somewhere else without at least leaving word for her somewhere, and that's what worried her the most. Where could they be?
