They’d buy Smarties,lick the shells of the red ones,and rub swathes of scarlet food colouring across their lips.They were doing it when the bell rang.She opened the door and man and women stood there.They asked if either mum or dad were at home but she answered that mum is at work,and she is not coming back until 6pm.Tayler and Therese were clinging to her legs.The people staying at the door were  police officers who were looking for a missing girl. As none of their parents were at home they asked the kids if they have seen that girl.They shook heads.As they didn’t recognise the girl from the picture the police officers left the house.
