Last night a friend of mine from a different state called with what should have been a funny story. My friend received a knock at her front door. When she opened the door it was two police officers. They asked if she was ----- (for the sake of privacy I won’t use her name). She “responded yes officer I am’. The officer had her to verify her last name and date of birth. She did just as the officer requested of her. He began to mention her uncle’s name. She automatically thought her family member had come in contact with harm. The officer quickly corrected her “mam nothing happened to your uncle. Your mother and uncle made contact with the Houston police department because of you. They thought something happened to you.” She responded “I’m fine”. He asked her to step away further from the house. He started to question her. “Are you ok? Your mom hadn’t heard from you in four days so she thought maybe your fiancé had caused you some type of bodily harm.” She told the officer that she misplaced her phone while packing up to move and couldn’t remember her mother’s number by hard. The officer thanked her for her time and asked her to give her mother a call. By this time I am laughing hysterically. When she started describing the conversation with her mother reality soon kicked in. She explained how her mother was crying and screaming saying she thought her fiancé did something to her. I asked if he had ever harmed her. She said “he has never laid not one finger on me”. My mom said “people are crazy and not to be trusted. After not hearing from you in four days I could only think the unthinkable. Fiancé or not people change" is what her mother explained.
After we hung up I just kept saying to myself her name is Tyarra Cacique Williams of Greensboro NC. She disappeared on January 7, 2016. Someone close to her knows what happen or potentially played a part. After having that conversation, until we find her I won’t stop wondering who was it that she knew that had a sudden change of heart. How quickly a funny conversation can turn into a pain. I went back to real life and realized just what the hell someone has done. All I can do is scream out “please help us God”? Got me wondering how well do I really know those who surround me?
