Little Abode for Children - Chapter 2

Teressa LeRoy

Teressa used to live alone. She was one of the student coordinators of the library. She did not show up for work on the day after the gala. Nor did she call in sick. It was very unlikely of her.

Mrs. Henkel, Teressa’s supervisor, tried to call her when she remained absent at work another day consecutively. Mrs. Henkel’s calls ended up repeatedly at voice mail. Worried, Mrs. Henkel, on the day after, while coming to work, stopped by Teressa’s apartment to check on her. It was locked and nobody answered her knock on the door. Mrs. Henkel reported the matter to the police. That day during the afternoon, Detective Nathan Adams showed up in the library. He asked Mrs. Henkel a lot of questions.

Mrs. Henkel was all praise for Teressa. According to Mrs. Henkel, Teressa was a dedicated library worker. She brought up neighborhood children to the library for several summer projects and events. These children were not only from wealthy and working-class households of the neighborhood, but also from the streets around the Metra Station, Simmons Park, Harbor Park and all other public places of the city. 

Nathan was compelled to talk to the children. The children were very depressed. They were missing Teressa very much. She had not only brought them to the library, but also she helped them with their homework, school projects and other studies. Especially to the street kids, she was a tutor and a mentor. Apparently, Teressa was only loved and admired; she had no enemy.

After a day of toil, Nathan had no clue about the disappearance of Teressa Leroy. So, he started revisiting his notes.
